  1. Still waiting on HLJ's payment request for mine. It still bugs me that Keith's nickname is White Knight, but he pilots a blue draken. Especially when the white drakens show up in the end of the series.
  2. Got the Nex set on ebay for $174 after ebay bucks earned. The matte plastic feels better, looks okay from top down perspective, and the extra tabs added helps hold the legs better in fighter. The arms still hang loose and floppy though. The plastic on the SAP feels cheap as hell, and the fact that they don't give you both gunpods kinda pisses me off. Probably feeling mostly regret on this one, but at least I didn't pay anywhere near MSRP. Being a VF-2SS fan is suffering...
  3. How much did you guys pay for shipping for the armor? I'm still on the fence for this, either just gonna sell my VF-0, or keep it and buy the armor...

    Bandai DX VF-31

    The 31F is getting it's own armor release, right? I can't remember if they ever showed an armored 31F in the anime.
  5. Shameless plug, Im actually selling the wings of light with the slipcase in the sales section if you're looking for it , just puttin it out there

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Anyone ever had a cdjapan order where the credit card declined? My order processed, but the card declined, and I don't wanna lose the order. Will cdjapan just wait to sort it out, or will they just try a second time and cancel the order if it doesn't go through?

    Hi-Metal R

    Question for those with experience shopping in Tokyo, Im in shinjuku right now on vacation, and labit has max for 7310 yen, assuming before tax. Is that the cheapest it gets buying it here?
  8. I noticed this a couple of months ago. Before, they were using market rates, so I'd order in USD, instead of JPY to avoid Paypal's below market exchange rates and save a few bucks. It was nice while it lasted...
  9. Any chance there's an evolution toys vf-2 battroid connector in the works? For the ten of us that actually bought one...
  10. Is nexx's leg armor different? The stand alone versions leg armor looks like a solid piece without the cooler gun pod.
  11. Mb red frame back up on cdj http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEOGDS-163488
  12. Yeah this is kinda lame, was hoping to pick one up. Why is this exclusive? Does Bandai not know how popular this piece is by now?
  13. Man, that's a bummer about Destiny, didn't realize it was such a popular MS. Hopefully they'll produce more. Is there an official release date for Red Frame yet?
  14. That's weird, ive had the opposite experience with cdj. Ive ordered about five separate items from them, and four of those times its looked like someone stepped on the box. Better packing would have saved a couple of the items. I just assume anything I order from cdj is gonna be the opener.
  15. Does anyone think the back thrusters sit too high on the metal build freedom and strike freedom? I prefer the way the MG's look, where the top of the thruster is level with the top of the chest. Looks off to me seeing the wing hinge and back thrusters popping out when looking at it from the front.
  16. Damn, sales tax in Cali though...still, comes out about $10 cheaper than BBTS or Amazon.
  17. Has any additional preorders for red frame popped up? Usually they come up again within a week of the initial preorder, but I haven't seen any...
  18. Whelp i gambled on this preorder, and now I can't back out. Their mazinger stuff doesn't look that bad, why does this look so off? And the tabs! They made them extra long on top of it. Jeez.
  19. Jeez, I go out on a thurs night for the first time in like a year, and I miss the one preorder I wanted to not miss.
  20. Why does NY price they're stuff so competitive for one item, and then mark other items up so high? It's weird. Having said that, I love that you can pay in usd, their conversion rates are a few points better than paypal or my cc. Plus you can time your payment when the fx is most favorable.

    Advice Needed

    IMO, the only reason to get a VF-25 over the VF-19A is if you can get the armor as well. And since that's not getting re-released, and aftermarket costs an arm and a leg, I say go 19. My VF-25's sit bitterly in their boxes because of this. I'll probably end up selling them.
  22. Excellent update Tochiro. Everyone's talking about the business model, but I'm just glad that what we're seeing isn't the final product. Hopefully, they'll take the tabs comment to heart, because that's the biggest issue I have with this release. I can live with the rest...
  23. Color shots look worse than the primered one. Ordered anyway. I need to scratch this itch.
