Even though I preordered fairly late (October) my payment was just processed by HLJ and now available in PW. I think it will stay there a bit until we get clear of Christmas and whatnot. I’ll probably use FedEx since that’s been a good option for me from HLJ in the past.
-
Don’t they just process payment automatically using your agreed-upon method? My order is with them as well, and it’s going straight to PW for now.

“How long have you had these Valkyries?” ”These aren’t the Valkyries you’re looking for. @sh9000 has them.”

The KO head kinda looks like an upscaled Bandai HMR head.
-
Yeah, this is also why I decided to be earlier than later on my PO. I’d rather be towards the front of the line.

Yes, Bandai packages all HMR VF-1s in battroid mode. It might be more space-efficient, or a reflection of the art on the box, which is usually in battroid. But I agree that VFs should be packed in fighter. The 1/100 Hi Metal (non-R) were done that way. Toynami also packages their 1/100 VF-1S in battroid/battloid. -
Such a tease. Wish we could see part of the actual art. I’m sure it’s amazing.
-
In my experience wth Hi Metal R, I’ve seen the TWEs stay open for PO at NY for at least a month. Not sure if that applies to DX or not.
-
I really doubt the super parts will include the missiles. I hope they release super/strike parts soon. My ultimate goal is a Hikaru-piloted TV VF-1S super valkyrie in with reaction missiles, even though I will probably have to piece it all together.
-
Same here. Over ¥6000 shipped feels steep, but don't want to miss these.

Cool video. She always looks like she’s having so much fun while singing.

That’s cool that they are moving into more VF-1 color schemes. I wonder how deep they will go with this line. -
I was also thinking that maybe they were accounting for Hikaru not being the biggest pilot on the SDF-1, and that a future Roy or Kakizaki might fill out the cockpit more. Probably wishful thinking, though.
-
Those VF-1s look great as ornaments, @sh9000. I seem to remember you (or someone else) doing something similar with the CF 1A last year?
-
I’d think the scale would also be off, with the 1/60 missiles looking too small on the 1/48. I’m probably in for a set, even though it works out to around $3 per missile piece. Being TWE, I expect that initial prices at NY shouldnt be any higher than MSRP, right?
-
Yeah the Regult missile set has really skyrocketed. Really glad I bought one at release, but I’m also hesitant to open them now.
-
HMR VF-4 is available again at NY: https://www.nippon-yasan.com/figures/26613-hi-metal-r-vf-4-lightning-iii.html Price has gone up considerably though.
-
¥6354 ends up being ¥5883 if you're not in Japan, since the 8% tax is excluded.
-
Nice M&M. Hasn’t the price on the Yamato versions come down quite a bit since the Arcadia re-releases?
-
I still like my 1/48 Collection. How about you?
ScrambledValkyrie replied to Roy Focker's topic in Toys
@nightmareB4macross, that’s an amazing collection with some impressive custom work! Thanks for sharing. -
I think when you're ordering in the volume that @sh9000 typically does, every little bit makes a difference.
-
Thanks. Figured it out -- it looks like it was already in my cart and wouldn't allow 2. I'm too sleepy to be doing this...
-
I'm getting an error trying to add to cart at HLJ.
-
I'm guessing NY will still come in as the cheapest, once they list it?
-
Yep, just got one from there myself. Plus their website has no issues.
