Proxy finally shipped out my pair. Not sure exactly how I want to display them yet.

I was thinking the same thing once I realized they started shipping them out.  I may just do a stand alone like in this pic for now.

No Super Parts were made for Chuck's VF-31E and Arad's VF-31S. When, Bandai? When? 

Armored Parts on the other hand were only made for Arad's VF-31S. You can probably get one and repaint it for Chuck.  

I wasn't sure if I missed any parts set since Bandai is taking so long and doing things over the place😅

Thanks for the information @no3Ljm😄

Did they ever make Super and/or Armored Parts for VF-31E Chuck Mustang?

With all this talk about QC issues. My copy may have to remain in fighter mode😅

Amazon and their infamous self opening boxes .   

Considering the package came from overseas I'm just glad I received it (even though it magically was opened up)

Received my VF-4A AJ order today delivered by DHL.  I was home to receive the package but by the time I got to the door the delivery person was already in the truck and sped off for their next delivery.  When I brought the package in I was surprised to see the perforated side of the package was already opened.  Good thing AJ plastic wraps and glues their items to the box inside.  I'm not sure what happened but nevertheless discouraging.

I finally got some things that shipped on April fourth last week, so maybe you’ll get yours in two weeks?

A least its seems like its starting to move.  I hope my shipment is right after yours.  Thanks RedComet!

I ordered the same set through FromJapan and it shipped on 18 Apr via EMS. It made it to the Tokyo airport the same day and hasn't moved since (see tracking history below). Japan Post estimated up to four months to clear out their EMS backlog. Yours is probably at the airport, too, but hasn't been processed yet.

Yours got stuck too?  Hopefully we all can get our shipments soon.  Thanks Anasazi37!

Is the Japan Post suspension still about two months or it is longer?  I'm just wondering if I should be concerned about my DX strike parts from AE.

Nice pics @neko878

 

Thank you!

Finally got around to unboxing the VF-4 Lightning III and took some pics

This round of pre orders was crazy.  Many sites were sold out in the first 10 mins.  Wow!

Ami Ami is back up! I was able to snag a order number.

The VE-1 only exists in DYRL and you see it for about 8 seconds.

Yup.

I was being to generous with the time I see. 

Thanks for the clarification everyone!

Was this particular VE-1 Elintseeker only in DYRL?

Anything I should know before putting in a pre-order with Nippon-Yassan? Never bought anything from them before.

Fast shipping and I always got my order. BUT if you have an issue with anything you ordered from them do not expect a resolution from NY.

I really like all the accessories this figure comes with.  Because of this I can overlook some of the loose bits.

I did my best to capture the issue, but it is really hard to get a good shot of the actual problem (at least with my phone camera).  The problem is the top part of the tab(the right part in my picture) that holds the leg fin almost looks like it is partially sheared off.  It holds the leg fin at a weird angle.  It can still hold the leg fin (I just took it off completely for clarity), but it very easy to knock loose, especially if it is unfolded (like in fighter mode).

On a side note, does anyone have any experience with AmiAmi's return/refund policy?  I'm not really even looking for a full refund or return, but maybe a discount voucher would be nice.

 

Mine came the same way.  Thought it was odd the left fin was loose.  I might need to contact Ami Ami as well.

Something new

Nice pic Saburo!

The right arm was a little loose from the shoulder.  But it was just enough to hold this position.

Great shots @neko878!

Thank you!

Just got mine today.  The packaging alone looks sooooo much better than Arcadia.

Just paid Ami Ami.  All the recent pics I been seeing makes this figures look more amazing

It did, in fact.  My mail carrier dropped by while I was heading out to work this morning. I need to decide if I'm going to open up the Valkyrie tonight, and take a quick look, or wait until the weekend when I have more spare time to enjoy the unboxing.

Might be worth the wait and appreciate it more

Nice!, mine arrived on Monday and got around to opening it up last night. It's great to have Max/Milia together

Thanks!

Yup! I finally got to pair them up as well.

^Sweet. Love the pics @neko878. Mine is in transit, so I need to be patient for one more day. 

Thanks Technoblue!  Did yours come in?

Yay!  PF Max is here!  Thanks HLJ!
