  1. April release is likely to be for the post TN event sales held in JP last November. If there was a general release there would be a PO day, which hasn't happened.
  2. https://toyarena.com/collections/featured-preorders/products/bandai-dx-chogokin-macross-plus-yf-21-guld-goa-bowman-use-action-figure another shop..no experience with it..
  3. out on the shelfs in JP..
  4. If i remember correctly even the original 171EX had PO slots here and there you could order for a while...the re-issue reflects that somewhat... The 171 which i would want is a re-issued 171 CF in matt, minus any issues in triangles...😉 The one thing bandai could and should have re-issued and fix, they didnt... or..never say never...😉
  5. woah tomica! what scale are these...
  6. i suppose WWM stores would be good as a backup buy. Of course the more expensive ones can act as a main buy, since less risk of not fulfilling orders due to higher prices... Am thinking if i shld go for a third with kappa...as usual my wallet says no, and planning to wait for a vf-22 DX instead..
  7. am not the only one who remembered the mismatched shoulder graphics from the old days! thanks for the photo... that art was so iconic to me back then (esp with that broken circle), that and the red incom's esp on the knees and forehead.....coolness all over ...the EX-S was so cool that they couldnt care less if the shoulder graphics line up... and then came the booster for legs type and that really blew me away...
  8. TOP GUN 3: an alien spaceship drops from space and the f-18 becomes transformable...maverick then trains a young roy to pilot the new plane..err...VF.... paramount: sure, use NUNS instead and beat the IP...
  9. I think its a high possibility for a VF-22 DX gamlin, looking at strong demand for the 21 DX at the mo. good sales of the YF-21 lead to a VF-22 gamlin and with an inevitable VF-19 DX, hints at a VF-11 MAXL... and then all roads lead to a VF-11 isamu...which will be a p-bandai 😆... *wakes from dreaming*

    Thanks man..do the ends fit into bandai's HMR valks and bits snugly? and the extreme side...have you tried it for DX valks (base reinforcement and c prong handles required i would think)? the itty bitty Y joint here, looks to be the game-changer, compared to the usual knock-offs...
  11. yeah it seems better than JP shops which limit purchases, if you can avoid looking at the price, which isnt that far off. Though i wonder if they can really handle the load, do kappa usually have a cut-off as well if orders come in heavy?

    any links? thanks!
  13. hopefully more stores will open up... at the very least no fuss...current BBTS prices are indicative of JP scalper prices.... more stores with cheaper prices may pop up...
  14. make a scarf too and complete the look...😉 and for the extreme makeover get a mini elvis wig! 😁
  15. Look what you did bandai! Implement pay upfront more or increase distribution channels...or god forbid reduce the price... as much as i know its in bandai's favor but in the long term restricting/making products hard to get ..well......is negative to branding cos there is a tipping point where folks wont care abt bandai no more... IMHO. not looking for a debate...
  16. 😁 yea no reason to be down......part of collecting is being able to hunt it down post release too esp since this is WWM shouldnt be too difficult to find.. who knows there could be another freaking release with the fold booster!!!

    bandai only releases em if you say you dont want em...🤣
  18. not to mention bare basic packaging if indeed the order goes through....but yeah i understand the compulsion to get one in hand... hmm no comments on the toy bit 🤣 but yeah more sites coming up!...😵
  19. Yea that wasn't nice! Still, i got cart-jacked at hobby genki. Was a little surprised at the price jump but was willing to go ahead anyway.. Didnt hear much bad news from YYK but then again i havent bought from them.
