no3Ljm Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Since everyone is updating with their current shipping info, mine just arrived at the local post office. Hopefully later today our mailing people will pick it up so I can have it tomorrow morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDX17 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 20 hours ago, yman1437 said: when will the super VF-1A Hikaru go on preorder? Excellent question! In looking at past releases, it appears we found out about the VE-1 on August 24th, which then had a pre-sale a week later on September 1st. That one is scheduled for release in January 2018. Not sure if that was a standard announcement, pre-sale, and release schedule though. As for the VF-1A, it looks like it was announced last week (21st or 22nd), so a pre-sale should be soon: not sure if that means sometime this week, next week, or the following. It's a safe bet that the pre-sale date will be shared here before it takes place though. This is a truly great community when it comes to announcements and on-sale dates.

505thAirborne Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 DHL just delivered my VF-2SS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanity is Optional Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 (edited) The Super VF-1A now has a page on Hobby Search, pre-orders start on 11/28 (tonight). http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10505301 I hope pre-order madness is a bit easier this time around so i can get it through HLJ.

Chronocidal Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 So, is this going to be coming with the strike cannon for mixing and matching, or just the missile packs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding (based on photos I've seen thus far) is that there will be no strike cannon. We had discussed a few pages back how it would be cool if Bandai would include parts to convert into VF-1S strike, but I don't see that happening.

Lolicon Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 In order to convert to a 1S, you wouldn't just need to swap the head and strike cannon. Bandai would also have to include stickers for the modex numbers. If there's one thing that Bandai is known for, it's not printing markings and giving you stickers!

Chronocidal Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Oh, I'm not worried about making more 1S's, I'm just interested in a dual strike cannon loadout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronocidal Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 So, what's the hour they're hitting now that daylight savings is over? Can we expect them at Midnight PST, or does it flop back or forward an hour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shukenzero Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Only saw the VF-2SS briefly. A Bic Camera staffer was putting security tags on them before shuffling a stack away. So far haven't seen a single box available after that. Must rely on you on guys for moar pics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanity is Optional Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 (edited) Woot, managed to get one at HLJ. Hobby Search seems to have sold out more-or-less instantly.

Chronocidal Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Got one in at HLJ and one at CD Japan.. had an order in place at AmiAmi, and their site died, so gave up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandman Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Wow completely forgot about this. I was on my laptop and show the cdjapan bandai email preview come through. I was like i don't think there is a macross preorder this month. i checked it quickly and saw the 1A. Jumped over to amiami and got 1. Just deciding if this one is worth a second purchase?

Sandman Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Slow mover. Understandable though. There were so many more interesting choices like the vf-1d or ostrich. I'm worried they are going to release the max 1a next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daBlah! Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Grabbed one on HLJ. Was debating this week if I should grab a 35 year anniversary one but jumped on this one when you guys posted it. Have the VE-1 ordered so will be the first one I get in my hands of this line. Really looking forward to a VF1D in the line up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those dyrl valks are just too played out for me. I'd rather see other vf-1s. Actually i'd rather see anything than a vf-1. It's seriously the worst hi-metal r IMO. The first line i've ever felt that way for the vf-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Don't feel like it's the worst, but what I'm admittedly after is just getting more super pack releases at this point. If they would just release separate packs, I'd probably just pick up the VF-1D, VT-1, and be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might agree with you that the VF-1s are the "worst" HMRs but that's not saying much when HMR is one of the best lines in toys right now, IMO. The other mecha are the stars but the VF-1s are nice too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
