Got an e-mail from Masei with some sizing info, colour options, cost and deposit.

Now I gotta decide which colour to go for...

D'oh.. should've kept my 2nd VF-25G. Now I'll have a super part and Tornado part and won' be able to display both at the same time.

Price just went down to $148.51

Which isn't bad considering retail price is 14000 JPY

Up at NY!

Edit: crap.. gone.

no. I ordered one.

well, congrats then.

Probably just a placeholder...

Lost the CDJ one in my cart cuz I paused at debating whether to use Paypal or Credit card. LOL

Yep, that's what I got too. lol

Thanks again for another nail biting night, Bandai. XD

Ami Ami... less than 1 minute, sold out.

Yep, got my order in at NY as well, albeit the higher price. Ah well!

Can't wait for the 25S pre-order... That'll be fun.

NOT!

Lucky! I was hoping for a duplicate Minmay. I don't care for Mylene (or Macross 7) that much... lol

Oops.. fell asleep last night and totally forgot about this. Ah well, NY will usually pump out more pre-orders... will try again later.

Anyone else got the GSC Heroines nendoroid-petit pack? Are the 8 you get supposed to be random, or you get the default 6 + 1 secret + 1 random?

I bought the pack and got all 6 regular ones, 1 Ishtar in casual clothing and a duplicate Mylene.

rika shiraki got delayed to next month. I'm so sad right now.

And the Max Factory Sheryl got delayed till late January 2014. =(

Gotta admit - I'm really loving a lot of the new Kotobukiya figures. They've really stepped up their game over the past couple of years.

Dark Angel Olivia (from Rage of Bahamut).... wow.

Does HS have a history of canceling pre-orders?

Nope, at least not in my experience. I've been ordering from them for a couple of years.

Guess the VF-25 is more popular than the 171 CF - no luck this time with the pre-orders on any of the sites. I'm sure NY will re-open it again soon, but F-it, I'm going to bed.

Goodluck to those that are still trying and congrats to those that got their orders.

I think I took too long with hobby search, got a "page not found" on confirmation.

Yeah, same here.

Nope, it's gone at CDJapan... lost it in my cart while trying to remember what my password was. LOL

Lost the one for AmiAmi too - couldn't log in to complete my cart purchase. ^_^'

Received shipping notice from NY. Also received a cancellation notice from Hobby Fan due to the fact they couldn't procure more stock.

Was browsing BBTS and saw this...

Just in case anyone is interested.

Where online would one recommend Canadians to order from? NY has been my saviour (at a mark up) but if these are easier to get, where should I go instead?

I still normally get them from NY, normally there's not much of a mark up as these are web exclusives and are "made to order." Some other online shops you can try are Big in Japan, Tokyo Hunter, Anime Export, etc.

With a custom written note.

"Thank you for shopping at Nippon-Yasan.com! :)"

How well did the anniversary version sell compared to the Alto version?

I just know that the re-release of the 30th version is sitting in-stock at NY much longer than Alto's. But perhaps they over-estimated and got too much in stock. With the super packs coming out soon, it might help with the sale of their remaining stock.

Thanks guys!

Didn't put too much attention to this one's pre-order date as I have the first release, but I'll keep an eye out on it as time goes.
