I wonder if this special will become available in retailer in US soon.

This is the second in their DreamCat series. The first one - a JSDF F-14 is available in BBTS.

Flying mule now have it listed.

With the 20% pre-order discount, and shipping at $5, it is a nice deal.

Yup, I paid over $20 more (with the pre-order discount) ordering it directly.

Slightly higher base price, and $25 for shipping, rather than $5.

Ought to get it faster at least, and don't have to go thru Flying Mule if there are issues.

So Noel said they’d give the discount and that Cally will invoice. Cally emailed me yesterday asking me to verify my delivery address so she could invoice me. Haven’t received my invoice yet. Did any other late comer get their invoice yet?

I was about 24 hours late on the discount cut off, yet Cally honored it and sent me an invoice the next day. Shipping is rather spendy ($25), but what the heck. If it is half as amazing as the press photos show it's worth it.

Looks like Big West has put their 2 cents in about this Mac Zero F-14.

I'll be very cautious as I open the box, take it out, and put it on a shelf for display.:good:

 

I'm all about intellectual property. Buuuuuuuuuuuut, when you drop the ball as badly as Big West has and there significant customer base is not getting what they want.......well.......I don't feel THAT bad about it.

There s no way that Big West and HG can't figure out a way to make more money by importing Macross stuff to the US. I mean seriously, if they only got $2/ unit it

s $2/ unit more than they're getting now.

I don't blame BW one bit for not working with HG. Frak HG.

I do blame them for barely working with anyone else.

Agreed. Somebody somewhere has to acknowledge how much Macross merchandise gets sold to North America

From the little I have read about HG they sure are a cluster. It's a shame.

I've had a few patent trolls come after me. I held my nose as I made a deal. But at the end of the day I got to sell what I wanted to sell and they really didn't ask that much. They're working off of the volume approach. A little of a whole bunch of stuff is a lot more than a lot of nothing.

Maybe I can wing it with HMR VF-1 or a 1/100 scale F-14.

That's what I was thinking....I'll try a 1/60 too and definitely would work with my 1/144 stuff....just wonder what it will cost?  $100-150?  It's motorized correct?

Damn right.  I won't buy anything with HG or Robotech on it.  I'd rather give my money to a 3rd party knock off company in China than to anything "Licensed" by HG.  Fuk HG.

I wonder if the Shin release was supposed to be for one of those pop-up events that companies can buy day-licenses for. Like the previous Macross branded Calibre releases.

If the event was cancelled, but the contracts to produce the F-14s was already signed, that might explain this.
