  1. The fact that a -0D PF re-issue is even on his mind is fantastic. Hopefully it will happen eventually. I won't sleep on it this time if it does.
  2. They've had a store for a while, which apparently was infamous for poor packaging practices. The Robotech soundtrack CD set I bought from them a couple years ago (please don't judge too much) was pretty hard for my CD drive to read, so maybe the rumors are true, or maybe Harmony Gold isn't big on quality control. Last year they completed their merger with RightStuf, who they had bought earlier. Apparently they are keeping RightStuf's facility open and staff on board (or so they claimed), and had promised in a FAQ that this wouldn't lead to worse shipping practices for customers coming over from RightStuf. I've had a few grandfathered RightStuf pre-orders that came from the new Crunchyroll Store, and the items were packed as well as RightStuf items always were in the past, so fingers crossed that they don't smother what made RightStuf good.
  3. Has anyone who placed a stateside pre-order not received their VF-0D yet? I pre-ordered from Galactic Toys and Games. I reached out to them via e-mail and they said they were still expecting the figure but they did not have an ETA. They did say they'd be willing to provide a refund. I see it's in stock at Amazon and other places, but for more than I paid. I actually ordered a bunch of modeling supplies from them near the end of last year and they all were delivered, so it's not like they're scammers. But I find it odd that they haven't received their VF-0Ds when many other US vendors have.
  4. 15% off at USAGS today with code MLK-15. That works out to $51 on their price of $339.99. https://www.usagundamstore.com/collections/new/products/macross-plus-dx-chogokin-yf-21-guld-goa-bowman-machine I will not add a PG Perfect Strike pre-order, I will not add a PG Perfect Strike pre-order, I will not add a PG Perfect Strike pre-order...
  5. If you're signed up for e-mails and wait a week or two, there will probably be a sale for 10-15% off that works on pre-orders in that time. They put the discount code in the e-mail. Once they even did a 20% off Macross deal that worked on pre-orders too.

  7. ^^^ $250 is a good price from what appears to be a domestic seller. Amazon @ $280 BBTS @ $295 USA Gundam Store @ $280 (This store periodically has 10/15/20% off coupons, some that apply to pre-orders and some that don't).
  8. I just find it really suspicious that none of these western home video releases has progressed to the point of having a firm date or being able to take pre-orders. Macross II was the one that seemed like it might materialize first. At Otakon, which was at the end of July, Robert was telling people "days, not weeks" and also "by the end of August", so it would have been great to see the dam finally break. I genuinely do hope it's some cool new thing they found they'd be able to include rather than some behind-the-scenes licensing drama that's been keeping the lid on these releases, many of which were announced over a year ago at this point.
  9. I wish this is something we could know before we're asked to drop $200 to $300 on it. I've gone back and forth on selling my 171EX, so I may just retrobrite my current copy rather than shelling out for this.
  10. Am I the only one who bought domestic?
  11. Notice that "Fall 2023" has not been corrected. If another VF-0D was coming this fall, they would have had to announce it by now.
