Loop

Anyone with pre-orders @ HLJ may want to reorder them and then cancel the previous order you have. There is a black friday sale on atm.

Yeah how could I forget the bayonet

Glad someone did this.... I was going to get out all my blue valks but could not be assed I have all of them as far as I know. I have the VF-1J Max, VF-22S Max, 2x VF-19S, 3x VF-19F's, a YF-21 and the VF-25G and lets not forget the VF-1D virgin road. If I am forgetting any of the V2's I most likely have it lol. Edit Should I include the A variant ghost from Mac 0?

Yeah I actually spoke too soon now that you mention it. OzmaLee74 and I should have gotten ours yesterday, but we both got screwed by Fedex Now the target delivery date is set to N/A just like I knew they would do after missing the target.

Now if I can just get them to adjust the price on the Metal Build Destiny Gundam I have on pre-order. I dispatched an e-mail, but I am not banking on it. Glad I got the 19's down to about 260 a piece.

I got the e-mail this morning about the sale. I did the same, I cancelled the 2x 19's and the 1S Focker and 1S Hikaru. I reordered them at the discounted prices.

Maybe that's the reason why they always do gloss then with the Bandai Macross stuff..

For me it's the fact that it's Isamu, it has a new head, and the gills are not painted on. Although the gills don't really bother me like the first time I ever saw the Alto variant.

The last few packages from Fedex have done this to me. I never have this problem when it gets routed through Alaska base, but they have been routing all my packages through Oakland lately. I guess I will not be giving thanks to Bandai for giving me Luca SP's and ghosts this thanksgiving It's not like I have much room anyway to break it open ASAP. It's starting to look like the collection intervention lady might show up at my house lol.

Hrmm mine said it should arrive today, but I am suspecting it will not. The tracking reads like: Estimated delivery : Wed 27/11/2013 BELLEVUE, WA US 27/11/2013 - Wednesday 04:59 Shipment exception OAKLAND, CA Held, cleared regulatory agency(s) after aircraft/truck departed 01:58 International shipment release - Import OAKLAND, CA I live on the eastside of Seattle, it should have left Issaquah WA to be delivered today. The last 3x or so Fedex packages never met the target they had on the site. Once they miss the delivery day they remove the estimated delivery date to N/A.

More comic than the comic book itself. I prefer the comics, but will keep chugging on with the show.

^^ LOL

I got my shipping notice @ around 1:00 am this morning, it is also claiming wed delivery. I always tend to have my packaged not arrive on the day promised, but I will remain optimistic.

I also got the notice of preparation, can't wait

^ Agreed, I would rather them play with it and find the flaws before release. If it causes a delay I have no qualms as I would rather have a perfect toy.

Yeah I think it's the high speed mode wing connector, I wonder if they should have not included that feature.

Yeah I'm pretty surprised it has not been shown myself. Hurry up Arcadia!

At about the 1:20 mark Isamu fires his head laser at Guld, if you pause it you can see the lighting reflecting off the YF-19. That was me just skipping through the movie looking for another reference. About the Arcadia 19, I'll take it however they release it which is matte.

Again we go on about the gloss finish. I am with Graham and Jenius on the fact that it should be gloss. I really do love the matte finish that Yamato used on most of the lines they did, but I think this pic does explain it all. I still pre-ordered 2 of these although they are matte and not as "anime accurate".

Yeah, I feel like the VF-1 kits really should have been released in grey plastic for the people that like to customize and paint.

Probably a long shot, but I guess we never know right. Bandai caught me off guard by doing CF schemes. I dreaming of those schemes and they actually did it, which I thought was odd after looking at the V1 DX toys.

I also loved the LED's guys, but I hated the fast blinky cycle. I wish it would have just faded from one color to another without that final blinking sequence. If they can do that next time around, I would buy it again.

Only opened up one of my 25-A's so far and it is nice and tight. I think its the tightest VF-25 I own so far, it holds every pose I put it in.

I keep bouncing this back and forth in my head. I have all of the Yamato DYRL and TV valks, I thought it would be cool to have multiples. Now I am thinking I will be cancelling both the ROY and Hikaru 1-S valks because they really will not fit into my current collection. This is going to be a first for me if I do cancel them. On one hand I already have stands from Yamato that are pretty similar to the ones issued here, but they don't have the storage section and the more rectangular base. I also have the older Yamato release VF-1S Roy that does not have the option parts and I have official shoulder replacements without the knurled pins. I preferred the rainbow canopy too although some have had problems with it. Arcadia just had to make it hard on me lol.

Hahaha now that I noticed the Michael SP's have better hip armors they (VF-25A's) may end up being a 3 mode SP display LOL. Too bad I only got 3x Altos with 1 in Armor parts and another in super parts.... The 3rd one is naked in a box waiting for the day they announce tornado parts (hopefully). Damned Bandai having to go fix the hip armor lol, I could not really plan for the revision. I still have an extra Alto armor parts set new in box, if they fail to release the tornado parts I may sell off the 25-F+Armor parts bundle if I can. And damn can they announce a Ozma reissue already? I also have an extra Armor set for that too lol. Maybe if I get enough Ozma's his unit can be my naked 3 mode display. His fighter is often too covered up in Armor or super parts so you rarely even get to see the skull on the back (Another excuse to buy more valks). I also got my payment request yesterday for the Luca parts, but have been thinking I will wait it out closer to release date as it never seems to affect the shipping times lately at NY.
