  1. Hmmm... I think NY may have updated their policies when it comes to preorder pricing. A member at the Robot-Japan forums asked about it and this is what they wrote back

    "The price of pre order is locked with the currency rate at the time of your pre order. It won't be adjust with the later rate. If you have any questions, feel free to ask us!"

    It may now be better to pay in yen since this is the case.

  2. NY doesn't really budge when it comes to changing orders in my experience. I had the YF 29 30th anniversary reissue in the same cart with my VF 171 CF and asked if they could ship the YF 29 when it came out but they said I had to wait for April when CF was released. Not sure why they couldn't do since the shipping charges on each was separate AFAIK.

  3. To those of you that just scored a 25F....will it complete your Flontier Skull Squadron?

    RVF-25 (on preorder with NY and Otacute) to complete the Valks but how can they really be complete without the super packs and tornado packs? =)

  4. Wow! You guys are right. I'm using safari BTW. Refreshing or even opening up a new page didnt work. Logging out of my NY account fixed it. This sort of glitch may have even cost me the original $151 preorder price now that I think about it....

  5. Hahaha! I like your first suggestion Scyla!

    BTW, just received a response from the owner of Hobbyfan regarding the RVF -25. I asked him about the Paypal preorder deposit since I didn't want to give my CC details. Here is the response.

    Hello,

    No deposit are required at this item.

    There is an anticipated shortage on this item.

    We will be comfirming with our suppliers.

    Henry

    I'm not holding my breath...

  6. Yes it does:

    That's kinda sad I'd rather would see an included Ghost. :(

    Especially since it's the same color then the one that came with Alto. One in the color of Lucas cheek marks would be appropriate.

    Is that green, black and yellow thing in the back the long vertical fin on the bottom while in Valkyrie mode? I wonder if it's going to fold in while in landing mode with the landing gear out.

  7. Although I frown at NY's FedEx prices, I still chose it over EMS since I continue to have bad experiences with LA customs taking more than a week to clear. Just 2 weeks ago I ordered 2 things from Japan which shipped the same day. One was EMS and one was SAL. The SAL one arrived 2 days before the EMS one even though it arrived 10 days earlier in LA. Til things improve with customs in LA, I'm ok paying for the higher price of FedEx.

  8. Well, I would not be surprised if most of us receive an email from hobbyfan stating that our orders have been cancelled due to supply issues. I got that from BBTS with the VF-25S and had to pay $260 from another retailer in a mad scramble to source one.

  9. I'd actually wait till the actual items are released before praising NY for fulfilling all our orders. I'm a little skeptical right now.

    I'm not. It was the same situation with the VF-171EX, VF-25G, VF-4. AFAIK, every member who preordered received their item. I know I did.
