I'm glad its an exclusive, the pre-order will be open for at least a day instead of 5 seconds.

at 28K I think I'm going to avoid the premium version since I already own the non premium, and go for max and milia premium.

If there is any premium to own, it is Focker's VF-1S.  Don't pass this one up.

We may see a slight delay with customs due to the strikes overseas, they may be a little tighter and vigilant.  No political tone here, just insight on possible causes for delays in customs

Valkyries dancing during the combat scenes was a little too much for me.  Then they jumped on the Zombie bandwagon.  Yes, music is fundamental to Macross but so is the combat and the impact of war on the characters.   I think Delta should not do a movie and just let the series fade into memory and be forgotten.

I'm pretty sure it's the 1/60 Monster.  Showing an actual human person beside it on the right to show how big it really is.

I'm really hoping all these random pop-ups mean it's going to be available at release, because I just can't deal with this website whack-a-mole game.

It will be available after release. I can't remember any bandai pre order not being available after release except for the YF-29 Alto. There could be another but I can't remember any in the DX macross line or Arcadia / Yamato line that was not available at release. You wil get one on Nov 10th, maybe a slight mark up from the site of your choice, but it will be there.

The VF-0S price is going to surge.

Max was a standard release and Milia is a Tamashi Web Exclusive. That is why I like web exclusives better. You can always get them because the window stays open so much longer. Anytime I see "Web Exclusive" on the release, my anxiety drops. I will say however; that lately, and I mean for about the last 2 years, even if you miss the pre-order window, they have always been available at release with a slight mark up.

"There's no bright future for soldiers scurrying for their reward" I agree with Focker on the frequency. HMR is not going anywhere. We are going to see everyone they have shown get released.

I really wish Arcadia would do box art on their releases that reflect those original add/posters they had of the VF-0A and VF-0S hovering in the sky. I still love this and am glad I grabbed 2. With these 2 and a TV Roy in the box, I will always have a bright white 1-S until the day I die.
