I got my shipping notice for my Lil Drakens set from NY this morning.

That’s good news! I’ve been waiting for mine to ship out as well! 

I bought my Super VF-27 Lucifer Renewal way back from them when all the usual retailers  were sold out. They’re legit but if I remember correctly, they’re shipping charges are kinda high just like NY. 

Anybody want to PO right now? Payment upfront though.

Yep sure thing. 

I shaved away a little of the black plastic at the end where the arrow is pointing. 

Thanks again spanner! You guys are awesome!

I remember doing something similar to the smaller rear fin of the left leg. It would just pop off when transforming back from battroid mode and rotating it to its original location in fighter mode. 

I have shave a bit of plastic in the designated location and also I accentuated the 1mm hole with a drill bit. 

My right leg is almost ok, so it is untouched

Thanks Xigfrid! I’ll try it on mine.

I used an stanley knife with a minty fresh blade to trim the plastic on the mount point so it wouldn't exert too much force on the winglet when moved causing it to pop off. Is heaps better but still only a 95% fix but will still pop off if you move it around too much.

Thanks spanner! Would you be able to post a pic with an arrow pointing where you trimmed the plastic? 

Has anybody tried fixing the tailfin popping out? Mine’s the right leg and only pops off when unfolding. Folding down though is fine.

for some reason it seems to work with some manipulating but is completely limp if you don't have it at that sweet spot.

I spit out my drink when I read this. Lol! 

Happy to report my antenna is fine. Shipped from HLJ

Mine shipped out from HLJ last Friday just maybe a couple of hours since I transferred from PW to ship. 

Thanks guys. Just got mine too. From the looks of the one from Amiami May arrive sooner than the one from HLJ since it’s DHL vs EMS.

Has anybody has theirs shipped from Amiami yet? My first one was sent by HLJ but my second from Amiami hasn’t yet. 

Thought I got cart jacked. Took me a good 10 minutes from adding to cart (exactly 12 PST) to placing order. Felt like forever since I kept getting errors with Amiami. 

Thanks @SuperDimensionalDave! I wanted to go the eBay route because I have some eBay bucks/codes and it looks like the shipped price is going to lower than what I’ll be paying going directly through their website. For example, I recently bought the ET Mechander Robo through their website and paid $370 shipped EMS while on their eBay store the same toy is $341 shipped and you mentioned DHL which in my case is faster than EMS! I think I’ll checking their eBay site more frequently from now on.

@no3Ljm

you may want to forget about HLJ. This is what I got from them after I inquired about my order and why I haven’t been charged yet. Had to find another source for it.

Hi XXXXXX,

Thanks for writing.

I'm very sorry, but we received far fewer of the item than we ordered and stock unfortunately ran out before your order and the orders of other customers could be filled.

We have stopped accepting new orders for it, but are keeping your order on file as we try to get more stock to fill it. In addition, more may become available if any of the orders currently in payment processing become cancelled for non-payment.

If we are not able to get any more, our order department will e-mail you to let you know.

We hope to have the answer for you soon. In the meantime, though, if you have another source for this item, you might want to pursue it.

We appreciate your business with us!

Best regards,

Dawson Matterson

Mo betta. Amiami has the Ray Mospeada listed on Ebay as well. Buy it now $213 USD free shipping.

I can’t find it 

Thanks guys. I have a second one coming in today from the one Noel posted on Mandarake. Never thought I’d own this considering how difficult it was at the beginning to purchase this. Now I see them left and right on yahoo.jp, Mandarake etc. for not too bad a markup. 

Just got this guy from the last lottery. 

Oh, I received mine from Loopaza. I was on the list under Other.
