    Dam looks like the F91 is sold out everywhere at this point.

    http://thechosenprime.com/MetalBuildF91 Preorder for MB F91 is up. Limited slots hurry and order before it's gone. http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=BAN17322&mode=retail BBTS link for MB F91, but already sold out.

    Got my KO seven sword today. Impressed at the build quality and the tampo, but my box came opened, and the legs are a little loose and not like the video. Makes me wonder if I got a return or something. But for half the price of the original, not too bad of a display piece. I'll post pics of my box when I get a chance, but when compared to official metal builds, something just seems a little lacking.

    US retailer that has the MB F91 listed, but not yet up for preorder. http://thechosenprime.com/MetalBuildF91 I buy most of my third party TF stuff from them. You also have toydojo, and bbts to look out for, but I will be trying to snag a preorder on thechosenprime. I'm getting tired of camping out at midnight for Bandai toys.

    ^Really excited for the F91 preorder, but thinking I may bite order with a NA retailer this time. The high yen is making the NA retailers a better deal. If I spent $10 more with an NA retailer for MP primal I could have had the diecast mace, and I had ordered from amiami with the cheapest shipping. Hoping the yen goes back down somehow. Someone destabilize the Japanese financial market for us toy collectors/importers please lol.

    Makes me wonder if the 00 7 Sword is getting a re-release.

    ^I was hoping for the Blue Frame 2nd revise. Those option parts are an easy pass for me.

    The MB after the F91 will probably the Arbalest seeing as how they already did the Leviathan. Also probably a marketing tactic to build up excitement for the relaunch/remake of the new FMP anime for fall 2017.

    Read the manga back in the day, but the releases are way too slow. Been waiting the past few years to get an anime release. What is going to suck is that we will be in for a Very long wait for an S2 once S1 is over. Drifters and Gundam IBO S2 are my must watch for winter 2016. I'll give a few other shows a shot, but nothing else really stands out.

    Bandai Sv-262 DX valk

    Vortech replied to seti88's topic in Toys

    Safer then the 1.5 hours it was open for the 31J. Have a bit more confidence that my order won't be canceled this time around.

    Thanks IXTL, and yeah question of the night, how did you find it on HLJ.

    ^ Get Sphinx! There you go done deal, now go get him, do it now. Sphinx is a good figure, the transformation can get a little finicky when getting him back into alt mode. I normally buy my TF's for their robot modes, and Sphinx is great in his robot mode, but MMC did a really good job on his alt mode, so I keep him in alt mode because his F1 presence/look is perfect. I doubt even Takara could pull off a better mirage.

    ^That you do, that loopaza preorder was open for a while. Also that Metal build Astray Blue Frame on Amazon went quick, already listed as unavailable.
  14. Vortech
    Normally they are about 1-2 weeks after Japan's release, there is no solid date, as it's pretty much whenever their shipment gets to them. And toy budget, just throw that out the window, you know you want to. Also for those that missed the Metal Build Astray Blue Frame, it's up for preorder on Amazon US. Same price as all the other etailers. https://www.amazon.com/Bandai-Tamashii-Nations-Astray-Gundam/dp/B01J7JN5ME/ref=sr_1_fkmr2_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1471288174&sr=8-1-fkmr2&keywords=metal+build+exia

    lol, your response had me cracking up man. But man I got the same figures preordered as you minus the iron man, just spread out across 4 different stores.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Vortech replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    A bit OT, but I have been lurking on MW since I attended MW con 01, and the MW community tends to be more helpful in all aspects of life, whereas the TFW community can get a bit hectic. Bought a combiner from a moderator on TFW and the whole transaction was a nightmare. I don't even post on TFW I just lurk there like no other, here I will post every now and then because everyone is nice and civil. MW community is where it is at.

    MP Cheetor is officially up at all the major e-tailers now, and anime export is the cheapest by a few bucks.

    http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=BAN17079&mode=retail Keep an eye out on the preorder, I just happened to browse the site, and the preorder was open and I pulled the trigger on it. But right after I placed my order, the preorder sold out, so I'm guessing someone canceled their preorder, it reopened, and I took the last slot.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Vortech replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    Nice Thanks, for checking them out. I will probably stick with them for all future releases provided they deliver on the 1J. Rather pay a bit of a premium and get a full nights sleep and not deal with the madness.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Vortech replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    Thanks, they also might not have a physical storefront. The guy I order comics from here in the U.S. doesn't have a physical address for his company, and it could be a similar situation with lapooza. They are also called CircleSoft Solutions Ltd. that's what appeared in my paypal statement which doesn't inspire much confidence either, but rolling the dice on this one.

    SMDH, that's like a slap in the face to those of us that got our orders canceled, especially since it's only been a few days since the email. Everyone says that hlj's service is top notch, but honestly I have had better service from amiami, I'm done with hlj, when asking for a solution or even just an explanation of how they chose accounts for order cancellation they have remained silent. I take that as them not giving a dam.

    For the users with T-Mobile, the T-Mobile Tuesday deal was a free ticket for the movie, so gonna watch it good or not, but a few friends went to an advance screening on Wednesday and said it was good.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Vortech replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    We will find out if Loopaza is legit or not. Took the plunge, and paid in full, the bad is that they only accept paypal, so I won't have buyer protection. Total price for the item and to ship to Southern California = $240, making this the most expensive DX I have bought at retail. Hopefully Loopaza comes through, if not I may be asking for some help from HK members early next year.

    ^Thanks for the link, preordered, just wish I could get my hands on a VF-31J now.

    Dam sorry man, that does suck for you east coast guys. I have a couple of buddies whose orders are safe even though they used the same method, where they checked out after the order stop. So it seems to be the luck of the draw or whatever hlj's system is to kick us to the curb.
