  1. Thanks for the heads up! I'm exploring the option of getting into the metal build line. I had no idea how popular these toys were. I assumed there was going to be a lot more supply based on how popular gundam is in japan. Maybe I'll jump down to the Metal Robot Damashii line and get the 00 Raiser. But man, the details on the Metal Build are so good!! It's going to be even more amazing if they make the XN raiser parts too! I'd really like that! It's also really surprising they haven't done a lot of U.C. suits in this line. Were the Seed and 00 Gundam series that popular in Japan? I have no idea on what's popular over there.
  2. how hard do you guys think it'll be to pick up that Metal Build 00 Gundam coming out in July?
  3. how do you guys catch when things come back in stock so fast? Definitely want to grab a premium roy, but not sure if i'll get an oppty to get it at a decent price.

    Thanks for all the help guys! I'm going to try the toothpaste suggestion and see if it works. man, I read someone had this problem on the forums and thought it was on this thread.. I spent like a hour or so this weekend trying to go through 30+ pages on this thread trying to find the comments.. I just found the separate thread talking about this issue. haha really hoping it'll work and it comes out. I've been going back and forth trying to figure out if i want to roll the dice and buy another! hahaha. I was trying to reduce some of my macross spending and hoping to pick up some other stuff in the future, but man my ocd is going to kill me on this. I switched my display to battroid mode so I wouldn't notice, but the plane just looks so much better...

    Has anyone noticed irregularities like this? I have these slight discoloring stains on my 31F from the wrapping.. I'm not sure how to get it off =/

    I just got my 31F today.. Super nice looking!! Have a slight issue though, the packaging/wrap on the fighter's wing has left an imprint of where the tape was.. does anyone know how to get that off without messing with the paint?

    OH man... I'm so sad. I just lost my pre-order for the VF-31 Messer version at amiami. I missed the payment due date (I never had this before on an order) and they just cancelled my order. Hopefully, they'll let me grab the order again, but if not, hopefully one of you guys can grab it. are all the different sites going to open any orders again soon?

    crap, so i got two orders through HLJ. I got the order confirmation from the first order, but not the second. I saw both orders show up in my open orders and I cancelled the first order(thought it was the second). I haven't gotten the order confirmation email for the second order... do you guys think i lost my order from hlj??

    i'm super excited for this release. i was lucky to get the 31J. The 31 looks so good!
  13. It's really subtle, but all the sv-262bas have custom color for each aerial knight in the scramble video.

    I really hope some of the other valkyries won't be difficult to get.. I really want to grab the S and F variants and grabbed this J variant just in case. It sounds like S isn't that popular, but the F is... Really hoping to get two of each. Sidenote - I'm actually surprised to hear about some of the comments about this forum. I've started lurking on this forum in the beginning of the year and started participating in the past couple months, i think people here are been really nice and helpful! I skimmed through some of the tfw posts, definitely worse imo...

    Hi-Metal R

    Thanks jvmacross and ZorClone!!! Luckily, I was working from home today and able to dip out to and head to the post office. They had it there and I was able to bring it back. The delivery was also surprisingly really fast. I paid Thursday and got my package yesterday, a lot faster than the last couple deliveries I've received. This thing is epic!!!!

    Hi-Metal R

    I just checked the status of my monster. The US Post Office didn't recognize my address (my building has a range of values for address e.g. 170-180 XXX Street) and it's going to return to sender (AmiAmi).. Does anyone know who I should contact to get the package before it heads back to japan? Man this situation is a bummer.
  17. Hopefully this isn't too out of topic. But the what its worth thread is locked for me fot some reason. Trying to get an idea of how much the renewals are worth now. I've seen prices for valks being sold around here in the 180s to 200s, but all the prices are pushes up to around 250 to 280 after 4 or 5 months. Having a hard time gauging the market.

    Hi-Metal R

    Thanks Kanedas and Old Man - Almost freaked out for a second especially after staying up this late for it. haha. Also, I've been lurking on these forums for the past couple months and finally decided to dip in and participate. Has been great so far!

    Hi-Metal R
