Just to be clear, i'm not knocking anyone who does each to their own and all that. I just didn't find the story that compelling or particularly interesting. The first few episodes were very rinse repeat which i thought let it down. Basara tries to sing to enemy, enemy f's off, Basara gets annoyed and goes home. Repeat. Only bits i liked were max's vf-22 spin missile attack episode (some actual decent valk action) and some of the songs like planet dance. That's about it for me.

Yea the story is weak I think but I LOVE the valks and the music.  That opening song is like a Megaman jam.

I am re watching it a second time now and enjoying it. It's definitely a lot easier to sit and watch than mac 7. 

 

Man I LOVE Mac 7.

Just a side question, who here liked Macross Delta? I watched half of one episode and was OUT.

Love the planes though.

On the other hand my other VF31a from loopaza has been stuck at the HongKong post since the 26th.  Loopaza contacted them and they stated it was pulled for a security check but that had been complete and that it would ship out in about 2 days.  That was on Apr 4th. whomp whomp

It also makes me think where are they getting their stocks even if it's just a piece or two?

My order is from NY too. That's why I'm trying to figure out whether they're delivering to customers that has just one order first or still based on what date you place the order.

Ask them.

Thanks! Congrats then on your on-the-way VF-31A.  

I'm assuming all that was shipped from NY since are orders from October 6(?).

 

Yes, NY.

Congrats!

Just curious, did you contact them at all or did they just send it without any extra motivation?

I inquired about the item but that was it.  No complaining or threats, just asked if there was a ETA which they basically answered as "soon".

This is just today?

And yeah, I'm curious too what date he ordered.

 

Yes this was last night EST.

I ordered on 10/06.

My order from NY went into processing and shipped about 2 hours later at 1226EST.

Waiting for the chance 

Oh heck yeah that's me.  Looking to hook a third.  

I like hearing about people ccancelling so when they do get there stock in I might be able to get another that was rage cancelled by someone else.

Something different

It ain’t 

Prezactly. 

Its got a black metal frame if you look close enough. The detolf has no external frame just glass and the shelves sit on a grey painted metal frame inside the glass. 

 

I seem to recall Spanner mentioning it was an ikea cabinet though but I might be wrong. 

I needz that. @spanner, what type of cabinet are those 31A's in?

Just now, TrickyCustomer said:

It does look like a ikea detolf.

Seems awful roomie for a detolf.

Looks great man. I have two vf-25a's myself don't tempt me to go for a third! Lol

Is that a Ikea detolf those are in or something different?

My 31a from loopaza has been sitting in Acceptance status in Hong Kong since the 26th and I have heard nothing from NY on my other one.

I'm in the US.

If they were upfront and updated customers on the situation without customers having to ask, they could have avoided this. Right now, people are getting annoyed because an expensive item that was supposed to be available more than a week ago and which people paid for close to half a year ago is seemingly in limbo.

I guess I have low expectations . :-p

Man!  It sounds like you guys are wearing NY out.  I have sent 0 emails to them about my 31a but choose to be patient and see what happens.

NY will have it for 6980 JPY.

Link?

When does the PO open for the super ostrich?

Sounds to me like there's a hunger for fighters in Macross that don't look like a box of crayons...

I second that.

My two orders from loopaza are sitting as accepted in Hong Kong and my other one from NY has not moved.

I'm like "whatever".  I'ma get my birds, or my money.

I haven't received any word from NY. Sigh... Looking forward to this bird.

Me neither.

Speaking for myself, it's not the instant gratification mentality, it's that if we (or you) pay for EMS or other type of expedited shipping if it takes the seller takes an inordinate amount of time (like 8-11 days) then we really are paying a premium price for a service we're not getting. That's all. 

-b.

 

Paying for faster shipping is different than paying for expedited picking and packing.  People seem to get that confused a lot.
