What the Hasegawa 65719 VF-1A/J/S Valkyrie No.19 offers

The Hasegawa 65719 - 1/72 VF-1A/J/S Valkyrie No.19 reproduces a classic Macross aircraft in a handy 1/72 scale. It provides clear surface detail and a logical parts layout, making it rewarding for modellers who enjoy refining paintwork and decals.

Parts detail and accuracy

This kit shows fine panel definition and separate elements that reflect the VF-1A/J/S profile. The parts are laid out to reduce cleanup and to help achieve a faithful finish with standard modelling techniques.

Construction and tips

Assembly relies primarily on snap-fit pieces, offering a tidy build path without mandatory adhesives. Painting is required to reach the correct colour scheme, and techniques like masking and light weathering will lift the realism.

Display uses and posing

Once built, the Valkyrie makes a neat display model with articulation for varied stances. Its scale makes it easy to include in larger Macross dioramas or shelf collections.

The Hasegawa 65719 VF-1A/J/S Valkyrie No.19 is a solid choice for modellers who want a compact, detailed Macross subject that benefits from good paintwork and decal care.

You can complete basic assembly with simple hand tools like nippers, tweezers and a hobby knife, but sanding sticks and fine brushes will improve the final result.
Yes. The model takes well to primer and airbrushed base coats, which help achieve smooth, accurate colours before applying decals and panel washes.
The assembled kit includes basic articulation that lets you pose the Valkyrie, but it is primarily intended as a display model rather than a play toy.
Soak decals carefully, slide them into position with tweezers, and use a setting solution to settle them over panel lines for a painted-on appearance.
