It's not. It's a figure. Internal is actually a cockpit. Sentinel put up a nice little review http://sen-ti-nel.blogspot.hk/2014/11/35wego.html I kinda want one, because it's so cute. But November is a pretty heavy month. Hope stocks are still available down the road.

Got mine and paid. Just in time too, because I've got stuff to ship in my Private Warehouse. Glad to hear that PA seems to be following through with their orders. Mine is being prepared too, and is pending stock arrival it seems. I was beginning to think I had posted their sales page for nothing.

I know that feeling. My 2 Armour Parts and 1 Super Parts have been sitting at home for the past 2 years or so, waiting for this day to come. Hope there won't be any stock issues at the outlets I got it ordered.

I heard something about the GFF Unicorn being very fragile once. Also, I don't know what to put it with since it will be so out of scale. I saw it in stock on Amiami, but decided to forgo it for now due to November being such a heavy month

^ I literally just accidentally missed a payment, because I overlooked a reminder to pay for my Fix Figuration Unicorn Gundam (Awakened) and Sentinel's Tsugumori. I even asked them if they could reinstate it for me, but they weren't willing to. While I can't buy them at the nice preorder price they were going for (even cheaper than Amiami!), I guess this means it frees up some funds , since November's gonna be pretty heavy. Paid for my Ozma all the same, since I really need a few.

Leave it to Bandai to release a VF-19, with Frontier styled ankles AND Super parts. Bet this is gonna be about half the cost of the Arcadia one, just because Bandai can afford to do so. Hope it'd be a web exclusive to be honest.

With my cabinet space shrinking at an incredible pace, these arms are just what I need! I've been thinking of possibilities to have my fighters "stacked" vertically to optimize the space, and this seems like a good alternative. Hope there will be opening to international buyers (Otherwise, I'll just use my usual forwarder)

awww nuts.. was in a long meeting when it hit. Ah well. better luck next time I guess. Here's hoping it's a good sign

Those are some sick pics! What did you use for the launcher arm?

Sorry it took so long. Here's the pic. It's not very obvious, but you can see a little bit of the tab from the top, showing that it had not gone completely in.

Gonna throw it up here, that I once ordered a blu-ray box set from Mandarake, and they offered FedEx because it was cheaper than EMS. Turns out, Fedex wanted me to pay an extra fee (can't remember the amount, think it was about $10) when they sent it to my house. Needless to say I was kinda miffed, and asked them for an explanation. They said it was indicated on their invoice (WHAT INVOICE?!). Anyway, to cut a long story short, I ended up forking it out because it was still ultimately cheaper than EMS. Also, I think this has been covered already, but I probably missed it. So I got my YF-30 in the mail, and it was pretty nice and all. Haven't gotten around to transforming it, but out of the box, the wings were folded for packaging. I tried putting them up for flight mode, and on one side, the wing just refuses to tab in. Anybody had this same issue? And any ideas on how I can remedy it? Worse case scenario, this will be the piece I leave in Battroid mode.

I've seen his YF-19 vine. It's pretty nice. Wish it was a little smoother though

Clearly, they do not know the signature of Macross... Missle Spamming!~ In fact, I would argue that there are too little missles on the huge missle bay. I kid though. At least your family is willing to put up with your hobbies

hate to burst it to ya, but the Bandai Koenig Monster isn't that big. In fact, One might say it's at best, as big as a DX Chogokin (I'd say it's smaller than the YF-29)

For those who got the YF-30 in hand, how do you think it compares to the YF-29s? I've had virtually all the YF-29s released so far, and they've all been nothing but disappointment (wrestling to transform it back into Fighter mode, loose hips after some time, too back heavy - especially with the super parts). Seeing as the YF-30 is pretty back heavy as well, what do you guys think? I've got 1 incoming and 1 sitting in the PW, so I just wanna get an idea of what to expect.

cybergundam just updated with a post that the YF-30 has hardpoints that can fit the vf-171 cf armanents http://cybergundamhk.blogspot.hk/2014/08/dx-160-ps3-game-macross-30-yf-30-chronos.html?m=1

^ You know what would really suck? It's that once the current PO has been released in November, we won't be able to differentiate the older batch from the latest batch (which may benefit from tighter joints) when buying off Mandarake.

won't they ban you or close all of your other preorders if you do that?

I'm basically being cautiously optimistic again. if PA is able to secure one, great. i needed the extra anyway. if not I didn't expect them to successfully secure one anyway.

I'm somewhat surprised no one has mentioned this yet. VF-25S preorder available on Play-Asia. Cheaper than NY too. as far as I know at a slight mark up over MSRP, with no limitations (which makes me wonder if they can even secure any stocks). http://www.play-asia.com/dx-chogokin-macross-frontier-vf-25s-messiah-valkyrie-ozma-lee-cu-paOS-13-49-en-70-81rx.html

great pics, Gakken85! Now I'll have no regrets ordering 2 pieces. Quick question, so the wings come folded out of the box. How do they feel? Do they feel like they'd flop or get loose easily, like how the YF-29s get loose and would turn downwards?

or several people cancelling their order after seeing that brace

wm cheng's a new father to a baby girl too? Hi^5! though I'm about 4 months late to the party.

^Oh man............ I wish I saw this sooner...

Except the shopping cart did no such things. Some of us here were able to get multiples through. Unless what he meant to say was that the shopping cart was supposed to limit that item to one per customer. Anyway, I guess it's best to be cautious about this all the same and remove the extras. Still I think it will be fair if they actually asked us to do it via email, even if it meant threatening with account closure
