Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.
Slave IV replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Yep, thanks! I had a problem with NY packing a while ago but it was nothing too serious...just a concern of what could have happened like you say. No issues since that one time though...I'm happy with them as one of my top two (HLJ is the other) goto shops these days. -
I don't remember what trasnpired in your situation but if you have two orders for the Spartan through HLJ, it was limited to one so you better cancel one since people say they have been suspending accounts for "breaking the rules". IN my experience, they have just canceled the extra order I made for me and there was no retribution on their part but better safe than sorry.

Haha yeah, definitely worth waiting for the right one and I hit the jackpot!
-
Because the cost of a DX Valkyrie would have equated to maybe one knob or air cap on the Ferrari? Lol at the talk of our ages and what we do to get these toys. I had my wife up hitting refresh with me in last night. As for shipping cost of some of these places, crazy but if they are based in HK, it might mean they are dealing with additional shipping costs that they have to pass on to customers. I don't even bother with any place that is going to end up costing me almost $100 more for the same thing.

Haven't had time to take many pics since the holidays but I got a couple quick phone shots of my Transformer figure of the year (GigaPower Slag for 2016): Got tons of other loot and hopefully get some pictures up soon. Also scored DX VF-1F and HMR Spartan last night! -
Thanks, sleep then...
-
Didn't AE and some other sites also say the same about being on holiday?
-
Yeah, it's hard to say what exactly that means since it could mean, they won't process any existing orders untill they come back but the website itself is still functional. Just depends on if they preset it to list new items or not. Seems like they did not if the homepage has not changed since December 31. If that is the case, then probably safe to just wait until the time they say they will be back...I think it translates to 4 pm pst for people on the west coast.
-
Has anything changed on the NY homepage during their time off? Any changes to "New Products"? If not, I guess we can expect it to open when they go back to work and wait till then. Otherwise, it should be opening any min...
-
OK, I know about that but that doesn't mean you stay logged in, just makes logging in easier. Thanks though, just getting tips on how to make this easier in the future.
-
Yeah, that's what I thought so I was wondering what people were saying about being on the site and logged in...doesn't seem to matter since you have to login again at least once at checkout again.
-
Even if I sign in at HLJ or amiami, it always makes me login again at checkout...Is there some setting to keep it logged in?
-
Ah, thanks I see it now. Funny, I was searching DX Chogokin because the 262 was there but it doesn't work. search Macross DX and it does work in the normal search. ??? Oh well, glad I got one!
-
Where is the "advanced search" on HLJ? I only see the regular search.
-
NY usually gets it a couple hours later
-
Here: http://hlj.com/product/BANN12853 Got it from the VF-31 DX Thread
-
No confirmation email from HLJ but I see it in my order history now. Thank you so much! Now, the wizards who find these links, got one for the spartan on hlj?
-
Nope, NY opened at around 14,000 for the 31J. Upped it to 25000 sometime after release.

You can solve at least the width problem by doing the combined detolf mod. Technically, you could probably put 4 together and solve the depth issue too. Personally, I think they need to be taller...A big base that serves as an extra shelf or two would be perfect.
-
Sweet pics from everyone and glad to see TCracker on Macrossworld now too!
-
I don't know if I'd call NY scalpers...They did have the lowest pre-order price to start with and only raised prices after, which is probably more dependent on the market.
-
So to clarify, it's unclear if another set specifically for the last episode version will be available or does it mean this set will also work for that? Basically, I'm more interested in having a complete last episode Hayate with fast packs (I think). Thanks!
-
It does say "pay later" but it also says "is not available" after that. Exclusives are always pay up front at NY. Can someone remind me...were the super parts only on the last episode when Hayate had the updated Valk with the knight emblem or was this on an earlier episode with his original Valk that just came out? Trying to decide if I need to get this set or if there is a possible different version coming for his last episode Valk.

Yeah, Wing is probably the most popular but my favorite is still G Gundam. Nothing like Super Sayian level Gundams
