Pay up front will definitely discourage scalpers though. It's 10x easier to get a no-cost PO and then get hte inflated funds to pay for it than it is to put up all the cash up front and then hope somebody buys ur inflated product. One is no-risk ez cash, the other is actual skin in the game.

God dammit NY is still slowly adding figurearts and animu girly figs.
-
At this point I wouldn't care if all macross DX was 100% TWE pay up fronts.

Can somebody make an animated GIF of the 1st episode of MacF where those VF-171's all launch missiles (preorders) at the varja and the varja just release those counter measure nets (server errors) all over? that's prolly the best visualization of tonight's PO madness

gyahahahahhahahaha so true!

Got a report back from my bud in Japan. His wife got a preorder for the 1A at Yamada Denki. The shop only was able to get an alottment of 3 in the middle of bufu Gunma. They got the last one....... His wife now knows how much all those DX chogokins cost. Press "F" for his marital bliss.

People should watch Anime Export and Bandaionline. Both are very reliable, but are pay-up-front shops. Both are 100x more reliable than nin-nin
-
Honestly I think Kakizaki will be easier. Luca's rvf-25 was so easy to get since the PO window was more like 45 seconds instead of 5.
-
My friend in Japan just struck out at all the online shops. He just asked his wife to goto their local Yamada Denki to preorder the item since he's at work. Up until now she never knew how much Macross DX stuff costs. He wants the 1A so bad he is willing to put his marriage on the line. I will never be so hard-core
-
Don't forget anime-export. they aren't up yet but they are a super reliable seller
-
So who else on the east coast is calling off work today?
-
This has been easily the worst preorder for a dx valk since forever. Let's hope I don't get the dreaded server error email :/
-
Keep trying at HLJ. I did because I'm insane and it worked
-
GOT HLJ WOOT SLEEEEEEP

I don't think the GM Cold district will have the GM-C parts. The shield is just a Gundam 2.0 Shield with a new front plate. BTW cold districts can still be preordered, though it's pay up-front for almost everywhere cept NY. Bandai-online is a good place with non-crazy shipping rates https://www.bandaionline.com/mg-1-100-rgm-79d-gm-cold-districts-type-plastic-model-jun-2019/

Was snapping up the new V2 Assault / buster parts. It includes a bunch of parts that basically fixed the exploding arms and hips issues and makes the V2 actually fun. Kinda sucks though that the kit was only 40 bucks but the Assault parts and the wings together ran me about 70 after shipping..... Gonna have to pick either gold or yellow when I go airbrush it at home.

I haven't played in an actual arcade since the last millenia when we had local fighting game communities centered around Virtua Fighter and Tekken. I miss putting quarters / tokens on the screen glass to reserve my spot :/ Now, It would be AWESOME if they did like a TWE 1/48 Max / Milia VF-1 Arcade version that was just clear Blue/Red
-
You know you're a true model builder when you have a years-long backlog. I have some kits I haven't built since they were bought 10 years ago O_o
-
wow that sucks. Haven't broken mine but I can totally see how it would break.
-
Yap. Looks like NY and the usual sites all have the PO up for the cold climate and lydo wold types
-
Also announced. MG Lydo-Wolf's GM Sniper II Kind of a head-scratcher. No new parts like the Type R-4 Beam rifle that Lydo wolf is supposed to have :/ easy Skip imho
-
Official pics of the GM Cold Climate are out. Ooooh Boy, Wallet Buster in June for me....
-
It wasn't a durability issue, it was that they had printed the SMS wrong. many MW members weren't able to get corrected shoulders
-
Just act like you're having "Stomach problems" and it's an excuse to get up and goto the bathroom to use your cell phone. Preorder your plastic crack valkyrie in your hotel bathroom like a boss. Source: I've done that before

It's great to get a VF-1A max TV. Can't wait until I have the full Vermilion Squadron
