  1. Remains to be seen if Bandai will issue a "new" 1J with the grey-goggles for the GBP like they did with their HMR 1J-GBP. They could continue doing their nickel-n-dime thing and make the GBP armor a more expensive TWE standalone accessory like the missiles and FPs, but to surprisingly include an extra 1J grey-goggle head. Or both. As for the TV Super-FP, possibly the same tactic.: Another 1J with Super FPs. (but that would be copying yamato-toys.) 1S Booby-Duck edition with Hikaru pilot. Standalone TWE Super FPs with extra Hikaru pilot.
  2. Honestly, guys. Try not to oversweat it nor succumbed to the scalpers/scalper-pricing coz you didn't get a po with the Roy-TV. Really think this DX Roy TV-1S will be available aplenty after release-date and at msrp or below, just like the DX Max-1A and the DX VF-31E Chuck.
  3. Like the Yamato-Toys pre-ordering days?
  4. To get an idea of the diffs, just go to http://anymoon.com/blog/?p=8895 and see it. That's fir the classic Yammie/Arcadia 1/60v2 versions, tho, as Bandai has yet to release their TV super-packs for the DX. They'd only released the DYRL super/strike-packs so far.
  5. You should ask for a refund. It might have been like that a few years ago, but not really anymore. Bandai's been capping stuff across almost their entire high-end desirable toys in the last few five or so years now: Metal Build Gundams Metal Build Mazingers Metal Build EVAs GFFMC Gundams SOC GoLion SOC Mazingers DX Chogokin Macross VF-1 As such, even when they do cap stuff, some (or possibly more) of their toys do become shelf-warmers and unwanted stuff, anyway. That said, I think we're all just competing against the scalpers these past few years. Both old scalpers and new scalpers. Both here in the West, and alot more over there in Asia.
  6. oh! oh! scalpers lowered their pricing at AmJ! ¥34,790
  7. Shieet! I still have 4500pts I am still unable to use coz they've gone HobbySearch-mode during po-nights like this...
  8. heh! I was completely shut out everywhere on the Hikaru-1S the last time. Can't remember if AmJ even region-blocked me on it or something. This Roy-1S TV po was alot better. At least, to me.
  9. Just to note: The current 35k-yen pricing at AmJ is scalper 3rd-party/Marketplace. The actual amz-jp direct pricing was 18k-yen. Try to wait a bit and maybe Amz-Jp direct will do a restock at non-scalper pricing...
  10. Don't lose hope. Roy's always a best-seller no matter the scale. It'll prolly show up again at the usual shops in an hour or so. Maybe even at amz-jp again.
  11. wonder how much the shipping rape will be with non-ajp shops...
  12. got one at AJP...
  13. Thread moves fast. Not quite. Think Bandai is just capitalizing on Roy's TV-uniform novelty. The Japanese fans/otakus just lurvs novelties and stuff...
  14. It'll be worse, I reckon, since DYRL is more popular than TV in Japan.
  15. With all the hate N-Y are getting here and elsewhere, I'm surprised some of you are even bothering with it. Well, aside from Slave, of course...
  16. wotafa's review...
  17. hmmm. piggybacking on the previous marked pic... Bandai should fire their photochopper...
  18. This: http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/toys/bandai-reissue-1s-super/_bandai_reissue_1s_super.htm
  19. Nice! Should've been the color of the original/regular/non-pf release, minus the additional shading.
  20. The Roy has a more rounded/flatter/wider head. And it (still) has yellow arrows on that mag-scan...
  21. well, for those getting this uber expensive valk, just hope it doesn't have two left feet or self-distructing hip-joints or, heaven forbid, new Arcadia fatality shenanigans...
  22. saw this at TD earlier. GX-93 is Arcadia... http://toysdaily.com/discuz/forum.php?mod=redirect&goto=findpost&ptid=463668&pid=8127651 Seems like Bandai just recycled the GX-86's gimmick. That said, since Bandai just luvs SOC ships... where the fugazi is the SOC SDF-1 TV, Bandai?
  23. Think it's supposed to be "Scalper Special". Bandai just cropped out the first term for the text to fit the box...

    Hi-Metal R

    We have a separate thread for HM-R Dougram, but hasn't had any updates since last year as Bandai seemed to have abandoned the Dougram-line: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/44158-bandai-hi-metal-r-dougram-series/ here's an old pic from the hacchaka-blog about the relative sizing against the VF-1: http://blog.livedoor.jp/hacchaka/archives/51998733.html
  25. You are not suggesting Bandai got it wrong, are you? Coz that would be extremely unpossible with Bandai! Heresy, I say!
