So is the tiny sessions YF-19 going up everywhere at 4pm JST as well?
-
I'll take my chances at AmiAmi since they basically have a scalper mark-up on their site anyways haha. Wow. Wasn't expecting that price haha. XD Thanks for letting me know though! What are the best sites to hit up for the Worldwide releases? BBTS? TFSource? EntertainmentEarth?
-
Is this getting any US store releases via a distribution channel or is this a Japan only release? Anywhere not sold out (other than AmiAmi)? Nin-Nin appears to be sold out.
-
So the "new release" is going to have all the same markings and tampo vomit?
-
So the colors are identical (markings too) to the earlier releases? For some reason I was thinking the earlier ones had extra markings b/c they were the "VF-19 Advance" movie version or something?
-
Does this one have more accurate markings or is the color different or anything like that over the original 2 releases? I have 2 of the Fast Pack sets and don't see a need for this unless there is something I'm missing?

Kitz Concept Toy Thread 2.0
protostar8 replied to Stampeed Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I logged in just to give a short review of my interactions with KitzConcept and how disappointed I am with their customer service. I ordered the Jetfire (God of Flame). I was in the 2nd batch. They apparently had an employee handling orders for that that left the company. So my order got forgotten according to the customer service reps. They still had some in stock (which considering I had already paid for it that's a good thing). They said as an apology they would include a free SD pullback MinMei considering it didn't ship for MONTHS after it was supposed to thanks to their incompetence at handling the previous worker's affairs. I agreed to that though honestly, that's kinda crappy. PLUS they didn't even use any kind of upgraded shipping to get it to me so it took an additional 3 months to arrive. I get the order and NO MinMei included. I contacted customer service and they lost the entire reply chain so they said I wasn't supposed to get one but to prove to them that I was. I sent them the reply chain. Their new response was that they should have included it but apparently didn't make it to my package in time so they want me to order more stuff to get the free MinMei. WTF??? It's bad enough when you forget people's orders b/c an employee left and you can't take over their work but then you make a second mistake and want the customer to spend more money with you just to get the compensation you already promised them??? It's a joke right? At this point I plan to avoid the company like the plague. That kind of behavior is not okay. Just wanted others to know so you don't get surprised by nonsense like this. -
I'm confused, who is that supposed to be in the new Riobot promo? Is that going to be a "shadow" version or something of the newscaster lady whose name escapes me right now?
-
I really wonder why we haven't seen a Hi-Metal YF-19 and YF-21. It looks like they have the licensing issues sorted out since they are doing them in another line.
-
Is there anywhere selling or just freely posting 3D Printable models of Mospeada ride armors/fighters/enemies? I've wanted a small scale Tread forever haha.
-
Has Sentinel shown any sketches or art for a possible Tread/Beta Fighter?
-
So any word on Macross Plus getting some Hi-Metal love? I can't believe they haven't made a YF-19 or YF-21 yet???
-
I hope they fix Max's hair too.
-
So are we expecting the armor to get released for other characters too?
-
Do any of the recast sites or even board members do recasts of the Experten kits?
-
From a business standpoint, I cannot fathom why Bandai isn't doing a "make to order" for these things? Do the investors/board understand how much money they lose in sales in order to make the item "limited" in supply? Limiting supply DOES NOT help the manufacturer! It ONLY helps aftermarket sales. I just don't get it (and I have an MBA from one of the top schools in the nation so I'm not just talking out of my a$$).
-
Has anyone ever ordered from Yodobashi or animate?
-
I had checked Loopaza before I ever posted and they were sold out. I guess they got a couple more stock then sold out again??? Kurama Shop...I just ordered one but I'm definitely not happy that they are $50-100 more than almost everyone else. Plus I've seen some negative reviews about them being super slow to ship. Any MW members order a few extra and want to part with one now? Haha
-
Great, I get up at 8am and in 3 FREAKING HOURS it is sold out everywhere. FML...Is there anywhere or anyone who has them for sale still?
-
Anyone else have zero interest in Evolution Toys until they show off a Beta/Tread? I wish Hi-Metal would do a Alpha/Legioss and Tread/Beta. I'd pay out the butt for that haha! If anyone wants enough money to buy the new Riobots, check my WTB out b/c I'm not a cheapskate buyer!
-
The visor on the prototype was SUBTLE like in the artwork. In fact, I didn't even see them in the original images until this monstrosity of a change surfaced and I looked back. The original prototype was just fine and was true to the artwork (which was also so subtle you could barely tell). Again, I'll hope a 3rd Party company makes a replacement visor for this line. Are the Yellow/Lancer and Bartley/Rook included in that artwork book? Are they substantially different from the anime versions if so?
-
That visor is pure trash. It completely ruins the look of the figure and instantly grabs your attention but in a bad way. Hopefully they include a smooth visor. Or maybe some 3rd Party Transformers company will make one for under $15 to go with this???
-
Any updates on the Seventh Moon Legioss and Tread?
-
It was quite old so I made this one. I will direct any future comments to that old thread.

https://hlj.com/product/aca82142 They want $150 for an UNPAINTED 5 inch model??? That's Wonfes garage kit pricing (except it's just black plastic). Totally nuts IMO. Thoughts??? Alternatives???
