Talk abt shelf presence, and its cheaper than a 31 too! Gerwalk POSE FTW!! Tho i wish bandai made the backpack wider for more presence ....thats what you get as a trade-off for chunky legs which are glorious!!

Thanks vlenhoff! i am hoping that two weeks into the release, there may still be some available in local stores or the likes of Mandarake, even if at a slight markup (25k yen range), but, I do save on EMS if I carry it with me so that may still be worthwhile.

Anyone know specifically what the other two valks are (Arcadia/Yamato)? Guessing the one on the left is the Bandai 1/100 model, the one on the right is the 1/60 Yamarcadia. Would like to see a side-by-side comparison to the 1/48 Yammie. Edited December 28, 2018 by peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A wild neck appears I’ll reserve final judgement until I can handle these along with an Arcadia and 1/48 Yammy but the pics look great! Looks more and more like the toy I imagined playing with when I used to watch Robotech (frakk harmony gold) while waiting for the school bus weekday mornings. Excited to get my hands on one. Looks like its quite chilly so need to wear a turtleneck under there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanedas Bike Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 HLJ shipped my order via DHL, expected delivery is on Monday. No payment request from AmiAmi yet, guessing (hoping) some time today. Thanks for all the pics, this thing looks like a true beauty! -b.

Sanity is Optional Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Had to revise payment method with amazon japan, hope they ship it out before the holiday starts. Still no movement from HLJ or AmiAmi though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manfred17 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Ordered 1 from Amazon Japan. The price went up. There are import fees.. Total : 279€ including shipping and import fees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightmareB4macross Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 HLJ has updated my order. Payment received and shipment is processing. It’s going to be a great 2019! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickyg Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Got my payment request in from HLJ a few minutes ago so it's in my PW now. I was about to flip out about shipping costs - cheapest is EMS for 63 Aussie dollars! But then I saw it next to the VF-31... It really is a huge thing, isn't it?

ScrambledValkyrie Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Even though I preordered fairly late (October) my payment was just processed by HLJ and now available in PW. I think it will stay there a bit until we get clear of Christmas and whatnot. I’ll probably use FedEx since that’s been a good option for me from HLJ in the past.

Sanity is Optional Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I actually put in my PO later, when someone cancelled. I also sent them an email though, asking if they could process before the vacation as I had PW timer running out on something on 1/1.

They haven't charged me either. I also PO'd one from AmiAmi during preorder madness in July and I have not hear a peep from them as well. Just my luck. I PO'd two of them and nothing to show for today. I dont mind waiting for the item just as long as I know that its paid for and shipped and I did secure at least one.

Try logging out from HLJ and then logging back in, that got mine to show up in the PW properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
