PO'd from AmiAmi, always wanted one of this since ever, but couldn't get one cause the high prices.

I didn't planned to get it but there it was the big orange rectangle available, and bang! I got one   

and is actually still available.

well that was easy got my DX Alto  Order at AmiAmi and Im back to collecting Macross Valks lol 

WOW! I just realize maybe I was just lucky in pressing the F5 in the correct moment, is sold out now in Ami and HLJ   

OMG!!!. I was kinda trying separating my self from collecting Macross figures(half a year now ), but then this appears and Im like:

as a Super Fan of  all three past Matrix movies at the end of this new one I was like :

Finally! is here , and is GORGEOUS!!!

Why Yamato ?, should go for the Arcadia YF 19 Full Set and is currently available for PO in most online hobby Japanese retailers I think.

no shipper box but still spanking new from AmiAmi , So damn beautiful😍

Survey completed!!, I think I went a little overboard with last question, I was too excited 😁

not sure but I think it will be bigger from the size cars autobots, maybe it was intentionally image size incremented on this picture, even if the cars autobots put on the same perspective as Shouki the cars would be smaller, like 1 inch or 2 cm smaller imo, still who knows.

love the design, it really looks like OG transformer, but oh man I think it will have a huge backpack, nonetheless I definitely getting a PO for this one  

between yesterday and today was an expensive shipping ride but an awesome one!, not sure if Im more happy that I got a VF 1D in that condition for that price  or finally got my shipping email for the VF 1J Armored Valk!( , and yep I follow the recommendation from @Tenbatsu, thanks! ) .

I haven't yet, not sure if @eXis10z has either. I think Amiami is slow in getting invoices as I ordered another item (not Macross related) and it took a week after getting their batch in and then came the invoice later.

If your so impatience about getting your Macross fix the next round, then don't get it through Amiami anymore @Alex GS.   

 it was just a question also I usually never do this here in the forums, it doesn't mean I'm desperate or something  , also I order dozens of things from AmiAmi since years now (new, used- letter conditions, etc), so pretty much know what is the time range from the time you put your order in and get the the payment request email , usually after receiving their PO items it definitely doesn't take a week to create the shipping payment request email(at least for me that has never happened), it actually takes about two or three days, also is not like Japan retailers receive the items in release day, they receive them way before that time, heck  even at last year Covid AmiAmi usually were pretty damn fast with all those working Japan restrictions preparing orders (using DHL), still thanks @borgified for the answer in the first paragraph, will not do this kind of questions again . 👍

takes about 1 week or so.  but also depends on what shipping method you choose..  there's one that's like a private warehouse and will hold for you until you ask them to ship it. 

Thanks @F360 for the information about Okini Land, finally received the shipping payment request thru email  today early in the morning, but it was just a direct link payment for Paypal for Epacket , no option for other shipping methods or any status change in my OkiniLand account. But oh well at least it seems I got the order moving finally, I have another Tamashi Exclusive already payed up and waiting, but this one was in FromJapan proxy service, lets see how it goes with this one when the item releases. 

transformers, Ghostbusters, Gundam a little bit of everything received these past days.  

Really impressed what they did with this Rodimus:

Just found this thread about Okini Land web shop, just wanted to know usually how much time it takes to Okini Land to full fill Tamashi Nation Exclusive figures?, is my first time ordering from them just because they handle this kind of exclusive figures, the figure that I ordered is a Saint Seiya  EX Siren Sorrento exclusive, the item is already out the same time the Stand alone Bandai Armor for the DX Chogokin Valks released,  already placed a ticket last week and not a single answer, and today put another one. Maybe Im just paranoid but can't stop this  Nippon Yassan feeling . 😅

Metal Build Justice up at BBTS for $300.

https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/178403

Just ordered mine,  not that much of price increase from its original price, I was actually expecting something like 350 bucks from BBTS , glad that I was wrong, also way cheaper the current scalping prices in Japan at the moment.

anyone has any notification from Okiniland?

I'm waiting as well a notification from Okiniland from another Tamashi Exclusive that was released the same date as the GBP armor, maybe will get some information between today and tomorrow night, this is my first time ordering from them, lets see how it goes.

Not sure where to put it or somewhere else post it, but this was released some hours ago, I think its a new movie for Frontier, I hope Bandai re-releases at least one DX VF -25 renewal.
