  1. No, even with that you will will not be able to order from p-bandai because you need to have a Japanese Creditcard. So, in order preorder it. you would need someone or a store in japan to do this for you. which is also know as Proxy. They will shop for you on your behalf for a small fee. There are some stores what will so that and you will be able to preorder from those store.. what are those store? you will see members post links here when they see it. So just check out this thread at the time for post and links to stores if you did not do your reach on some possible targets. Below is a example of what happens when the `1/48 tV super parts going up for preorder on the p-bandai site,. for TWE items. You have lots of time before the vf-1D preorder. So Read those pages , it will have references, possible stores that normally post p-bandai TWE items orders. . Dont stop at 1 or 2 pages. read the heck out of them.. 10- 20. 30 pages. it does not take much times. After that you should have a very good idea of preordering p-bandai TWE items,. This is the same for all other preoders. find out the history of when preoder date was. . Then just back to the dates on this thread that is preoder date and see what happen. read, read, read. it will have all the info you ever need.

  3. HLJ only give you 10 days to let them know of issues. I'm sure its way pass that date..
  4. update photo video of the cargo ship with many lost container.
  5. Shipping is shipping. Many international have a set day that you need to contact them after receiving for any return or problem reqest. Many stores will require you to pay for the return shipping. it's best to check the FAQ and policy of the store before placing any orders.
  6. the release date should be 12/22 ... over even a 12/17
  7. yes, but there many restrictions. The air small packet they are taking about will not have tracking and will not have insurance. Iitems over 15,000yen can not ship by air small packet too. https://support.hlj.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001861474-Shipping-Methods-Overview
  8. yeah, I agree on that one.. if the price is close enough, I would preorder it from USA because of easy returns or you can easily contact Bluefin too. And right now, the price is getting closer and closer due to the shipping cost.
  9. price seems to be going back up on amazon.co.jp seems to be around 30000 yen before shipping to USA. now.
  10. nice, glad you were able to order your set.
  11. Fedex and DHL is by DIM weight, so which ever is larger they will use that one. weight or Dim Weight. $150 is defiantly the in the Highs. Someone used fromjapan to ship a DX and it was around $85 ,they probably double boxed that one too. Base on some replies from members that shipped their dx from other proxies, Depending on the size of the shipping box, your shipping cost can be from 6000 yen to 15000 yen also from other members: Tenso is charging around 5525 yen for DHL Amiami is charging around 6000 yen for DHL
  12. he only have the DX VF-1s roy.. you can take a look at his photo.
  13. yeah. those extra box dimensions really adds up.. Seems like you can almost fit 3 Roys in the big box.

  15. Did a check on some of the other releases from Tamashii web for December. The release date for the 1/48 VF-1 TV Super parts December Batch will either be 12/17 or 12/22.
  16. https://www.freightwaves.com/news/one-apus-lost-or-damaged-containers-could-exceed-1900 Container ship en route to Port of Long Beach reportedly encountered violent storm Monday night Ocean Network Express said Wednesday the number of lost or damaged containers from a vessel en route to the Port of Long Beach, California, “could exceed 1,900.” It’s a jaw-dropping sum — more than the average number of containers lost in an entire year from all vessels around the globe. And the accident comes during the last rush to get Chinese exports into U.S. consumers’ hands before Christmas.
  17. I did that a couple of times. ..
  18. so true, since many of the Japanese stores that reopen happen when most USA people sleeps. unless you are a light sleeper or work graveyard shifts.
  19. .. now if only their one that show Roy shooting like crazy and miss everything that we can use for preorder night.
  20. yeah, its expected.
  21. be ready on all site. preorder what you can on preorder night. sign up for notification for any sold out ,if site offers it., subscribed to macross threads from forums have page monitor app that will run in the back ground when you computer is on. be ready to be able to order anytime anywhere. lol check near release date all the above if all else fails.
