    Bluefin is a distributor for web/limited/P-Bandai releases.

    For normal releases, Bandai sells to a large number of retailers.

    I understand what Bluefin is, I was just thinking about an exclusive offering just like Target has exclusive Gundam Universe figures. I can't see Bluefin/Bandai doing any kind of mass market releases due to no media/marketing available right now for Macross, so they would be interested in a niche market via BBTS. 

  2. Bbts had a really bad time getting the VF-25 renewal version right before the Macross lockdown hit, left a lot of us hanging, I think Altos VF-25 was the actual beginning of preorder madness when it first came out and they might be cautious this time. Then again this would be a great opportunity for Bandai to set up a new supply line to the US with BBTS and reissue everything from 1/48 to Hi-Metal, a Destroid 1/100  4 pack as an exclusive would be great! Repaint the Defender and Spartan, and release the standard Tomahawk and Phalanx. One could only imagine!

    This one isn't a shameless plug, but is a great find for someone who seems to be clearing out his or her collection:

    https://www.ebay.com/sch/m.html?_odkw=&_ssn=jjoc2113&_armrs=1&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=macross&_sacat=0

     

    Hope I'm not ruining anyone's bids: if I hadn't exhausted my fun funds with a pair of price-gougy vf-31A's I'd be all over all of those!  This person is probably preventing my items from getting sold at the moment :)

    Sorry everyone,  those were my auctions,  have to sell everything for personal reasons but I didn't want to get into the 100+ messages. All my macross items that I was selling are gone now, time to sell everything else. If anyone from Macrossworld won them I  hope you enjoy them as much as I have!

    I put a pre-order in for the J-type from Flying Mule a while back, and have not heard anything back about that yet, but I'm not in any particular rush.  One of my main motivators for that version was getting a full set of phoenix rails to use, but I was pleasantly surprised when the VF-142 release included the full set.

    Flying mule doesn't carry anymore Calibre wings, I had to cancel my paid preorder and then get them from bbts

  5. To anyone still waiting, check with your local post office. EMS is air freight so it will usually go to a large airport and will then go directly to your local post office. The problem I have seen in the past is that our local mail scanning postal employees tend to not scan in these packages and they end up sitting in the post office. I would just take your tracking number and ask if the package is there. This has happenned to me at least 3 times in the past and there they were. B))

  6. Hey Graham, Do you know about any near future non canon VF-1s that you can talk about? You knew about the M&M VF-22s so maybe you can help us out so we can save up for some future VF-1s. I also like the poll you have going for the next VF. How about a poll for a new scheme? Maybe something from the VF master file book (I haven't got mine yet but I have seen some of the VFs). Maybe a poll for the VF-1, VF-0, VF-11 or the YF-19?

  7. I think we need a weapons pack for the VF-1/0, I have 10 VF-1s and 3 VF-0s and only 3 types of missile for each, I am sure Yamato can come out with a non-canon pack of missiles, bombs, droptanks, sensor pods or even a wing mounted gunpod system. It's a no brainer, maybe Graham could mention this sometime <_<
