  1. Okini also shipped mine via DHL. I only paid for EMS, so I have to say that was great customer service!
  2. Cool, thanks. I ordered from Okiniland anyway. Couldn't help myself.
  3. Also at NIN NIN Game: https://www.nin-nin-game.com/en/japanese-import-hobbies-toys-game-character/36510-dx-chogokin-macross-movie-version-vf-1a-valkyrie-hayao-kakizaki-use-limited-edition.html Seems to be a Tamashi Web Exclusive, according to NIN-NIN Game. Are there any other sites that would carry this? Maybe Nippon Yasan?
  4. Unless I missed something, it looks like the DYRL Kakizaki, Hikaru, and Max Super VF-1A are shown on this page: https://game.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/1214619.html I like the red stripe around the head lasers. Looking forward to these.
  5. I just wanted to chime in here too. Many kudos to you Shizuka the Cat! Your links during the VF-1J pre-order last year were the reason I was able to snag one, and this round was very helpful as well. Thanks!
  6. I struck out this time. Ami Ami pre-order button appeared a couple of times, but it didn't work. I had it in the cart at HLJ, but it showed an Order Stop after processing PayPal.
  7. My favorite valkyrie too. This looks amazing! Also, it looks like it will actually be fun to transform, almost toy-like (if that makes sense). I'm looking forward to this!
  8. Exactly. There's no way to tell until we actually see a transformation video (of the final product).
  9. Got 1 at Ami Ami. Going back to bed.
  10. For the VF-1, make the color gray (or maybe off-white, like in the Yamato days). At least don't make them pinkish. Lower the price. Diecast shoulders and hip joints in the VF-1 would be nice.
  11. Same here, the foot thruster fell off my Arcadia Roy VF-1S when transforming it last week. No problem, it slid right back into place (i'll glue it back at some point.) In Arcadia's defense, I was probably trying to open the foot one too many clicks, so I'm just glad it didn't break.
  12. Try the Tamiya thin liquid cement (it's about $5 at hobby stores), it fuses the plastic together nicely (it's ether PVC or ABS, not sure which). It melts the plastic a little at first, you'll need small tools like a tweezers or small needle nosed pliers to place the parts directly after applying the glue, otherwise you can smudge the plastic permanently if you get a finder print on it. I'm not sure Shapeways will work on this, the parts are very small.
  13. Earlier in the thread someone said that they contacted the guy and he said negotiations broke down and he wasn't selling the parts. As a side note, I repaired my NUNS triangle with Tamiya extra thin cement. So far so good, although I only had a crack and a small piece broken from it...
  14. Thanks, I think I see it now. I've been afraid to transform it until I loosened the screw first. Now if I can only do step 2 without breaking the leg off!
