  1. There was a bunch of RE/100 kits that were teased but never came out. A couple things eventually saw the light of day as MGs while others disappeared entirely.
  2. Other things have been announced or teased that never actually came out. So I'll sleep easiest when the pre-orders pop up.
  3. You know, I'm digging these DX set versions. I wish they'd done something similar for YF-19/YF-21/VF-22/YF-29/Fire Valkyrie kits.
  4. I can't seem them doing the VF-31F as an exclusive. Maybe a lil Drakken equipped version. They skipped the VF-31E in 1/72 but I think that's just because of the dish complications. Hoping the VF-31E will also be standard release since its a parts former. VF-31A, I could see as an exclusive. Especially since it wasn't teased alongside the others.
  5. Fingers crossed we're still getting all 5.
  6. I have so much stuck there. I'm glad they are suspending the 6th month storage limit, but still... who knows when I'll be able to get my stuff.
  7. Even without the tariff issues, my optimism is low. I'm kinda surprised they are showing the VF-25 when they haven't done all the VF-31s yet. I wonder if they're going to release all the VF-31s rapidly before the first VF-25 release, or if they'll be coming out with overlapping release schedules, or if we just won't get all the VF-31s after all?
  8. My sets came in as well. Picked up 4 sets. Not enough to equip all my fighters though. Hopefully pick up more later.
  9. Hopefully my notification is just delayed.
  10. Thanks! Moved my comment to the appropriate thread.
  11. Unsurprisingly HLJ did not bestow me with any of the standard VF-31, VF-31 deluxe, or VF-31 decals that I pre-ordered. Same old story. Did not get the MGSD Aerial Gundam I pre-ordered either. I don't even know why they bother with pre-orders on Bandai items any more. They must get ridiculously low stock. Doesn't matter if it's Gundam, Macross, or Armored Core. None of my pre-orders ever yield results anymore.
  12. Uh... I just realized HLJ now has the weapons set marked as discontinued. I guess it did get released and HLJ couldn't fill all orders? Did anyone else get a set? Thinking I need to shop around and buy a set or 2 or 3 elsewhere.
  13. Yes, the sprues contain parts that are supposed to be 2 different colors on the kit. So they have to provide the sprue in both colors. Of course they wouldn't need to do this (and save us some $$) if everyone still painted...
  14. Awesome news! Looks great. Just pre-ordered. Still wondering if they're going to do VF-1J Max/Miria in fighter and/or battroid.
  15. It's really just Bandai stuff that's a problem for me. I get all my Hasegawa, Wave, Max Factory, Kotobukiya, Moderoid, Our Treasure, Tamiya, Aoshima, Fujimi, Hobby Japan pre-orders with no problems.
  16. It's just really hard to get anything Bandai from HLJ now. I have a big list of items I pre-ordered super early and never got. And wound up canceling pre-order when I got the item at a local store. This goes for Gundam (never got RG Shining or MGSD Wing or MG Vidar or MG Narrative C-Packs and many others), this goes for Macross (have pre-ordered every HG 1/100 valk and I think I only got one YF-21 and one Fire Valkyrie - my VF-22 Max and Miria pre-orders are still sitting unfulfilled, and my older pre-orders are canceled), and this goes for Armored Core (I pre-ordered everything from the 30mm ACVI line, and the only ones ever fulfilled were the quad leg unit and one of the weapon sets).
  17. Same as this same. And also, same.
  18. Looks like it's going for that anime cel shading style that the hip young kids are trying these days,
  19. I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I have a lot that needs shipping. So it's either rush to ship everything now, which will for sure cost a ton to ship everything at once, or sit it out and see how things go, let some stuff rest in the private warehouse, and risk having to pay even more with tariffs factored in when I finally DO ship.
  20. The reds on your box top still seem very red... I think they'd be faded if the box was actually sun bleached.
  21. I mean brand new decal/scheme variants though... would be nice to see alternate squadron versions of the VF-1 gerwalks, VF-25 series, VF-31 series... since they haven't gotten any yet. But I'd easily spend money on fun new marking versions of the VF-1, VF-11, YF-19, YF-21, VF-0, etc... As for Black Aces... I dunno. I'm sitting on 3 of the 1/72s and 2 of the 1/48s right now. I THINK the 1/72 technically has 4 build options in the box, and the 1/48 has 5. Part of me wants to go crazy and buy 1 more 1/72 and 3 more 1/48. My more rational side says no way in hell, you'd never build all of them. Having 5 of the 1/48 sitting around would be kind of insane.
  22. I wish they'd do more of these. Special squadron variation re-releases. I don't think there's been any new ones since the VF-11 variants?
  23. I have that tightly packed issue with a lot of Kotobukiya (Armored Core) kits. Some Bandai kits too for that matter.
  24. I feel like they could have used smaller boxes.
