Interesting. I wonder if that means the production base moved from China?

Overall I still love it and got two.

This is a sweet Gerwalk pose.

Very nice.
I typically display in fighter mode so I’m disappointed in the smaller nose section.

Holly crab!!!

Jimminy Christmas!!!

I don’t totally love it…glad I only got two 😂 

Maybe I can swap the legs between the Yamato and DX hehe

The VF-11 is what I’m keeping an eye out for. I can’t resist a Mac Plus DX. Hope it comes with the boosters.  

I thought that was a relatively good PO. Happy I limited myself to 2 copies 🤑
 

Great job everyone woo

Edit- Looked at all the close-ups I could find, and I'm really not seeing any reason for those slots.. and it looks like the opposite arm has a plug in that hole, so who knows if it's supposed to be there.

Those are speed holes; makes the plane go faster. That’s why it’s so expensive. 

Just got this from Yuyakunow

yay 🤑

Still available at Anime Export.

Says sold out for me. 
 

I got another at Luna since I had some points. 

Got one at yoyakunow. Not sure if I want to get another at Luna. 

~$300 seems like a decent price from what I’ve seen over the last few days. If I’m around for the next PO I think I’ll feel more comfortable not securing copies at the initial offering. 

Tempted to pickup one of these domestic offerings.

eknightmedia has it for $302.60, free shipping and usually no tax for customers outside of CA. $35 on refundable deposit.

Not bad cheaper than scalper price I paid. 
 

Taking some willpower not to buy another lol

emotional damage 

Congrats to those that got one!

I had one but it disappeared before I could get to payment 🫠

Ah cart jacked!

I checked to CA, it's $332 via DHL/FedEx. The shipping was Y8440.

Mine was ~$295 to northeast US via surface.

ooof. Please do! I just had it sent to warehouse for the time being. Im gone for a year here shortly so in no immediate rush per-say.

I usually use surface if I can. I don’t mind waiting.

Anyone ever use their Surface/Freight feature (Nin-Nin)?

I’ll let you know how it works out 😅

I'm thinking the YF-19 re-release is getting lower attention just due to Bandai stripping out all of the extras it originally came with.

Yeah, I was looking and didn't see a reason to pick one up.  I have most of the others 😕

Wow, close to the scalper price I paid last night 😭

Seems expensive; I wonder if it will go on sale at some point 🔮

I believe it’s a world wide release so should be available at US retailers eventually. Can always pay an arm and a leg at Luna Park if you don’t want to worry about it. 

Yeah I regret the FOMO purchase at Luna Park. I was delirious and disappointed when I got cart jacked at yoya; an expensive  combination 💰 😂

Available at Kurama at 309 USD.  Ooofff, that's kind of a lot.

 

And it’s gone! 
 

Realizing I paid pretty much the same price at Luna *ragrets*

missed another PO.  4 hours too late

 

Sorry, man! I’ve been out of it for a while so I logged in just in time to get cart jacked at the last open link. 
 

I haven’t ordered a world wide release yet. Is the mark up at U.S. retailers very high? Will be tough to beat my order at Luna park. So spendy 🤑

The good thing about Amiami's current PO times and method, is that they parcel it out in lots. The PO will re-open every 10 minutes or so in that hour's duration. So check back often.
 

That's great to hear.  

Dang I should have waited!

Well, completely got the time wrong by an hour... Missed HLJ and AJP, and I don't like paying for preorders so early in advance. AmiAmi's my only hope...

Same here. I was going to hold out for AmiAmi but I don’t remember the last time I secured a PO there; or HLJ for that matter.
