New Macross TV Series in 20xx (sometime this decade)
Sanity is Optional replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
Frontier is my favorite of all the series, if I'm taking off my nostalgia goggles. Characters were interesting, dogfights and mecha were interesting, and the plot was decent as well. Delta and 7 strayed a bit too far from what I liked about having one of the main focuses be on fighter pilots. Even in the original series, the focus was on Hikaru as a pilot, rather than Minmay as an Idol (though she was much more important to the plot). -
I think they're listed as separate items on the product page, so probably inserts like on the Arcadia VF-1 figures.
-
Anime magic, it's hard to have both battroid and fighter be accurate for the designs older than frontier (when they used CAD models and CGI to keep things consistent).
-
Until you buy every single last VF multiple times.
-
Ah, you're where I'm sitting. Never would have thought that the general release VF-1J would be easier to get than the P-Bandai M9 during pre-order night. What proxy you using for the Gernsback? I'm using FromJapan over here. [edit] I still can't believe NY limited their preorders for the M9 to the level they sold out within minutes.

Full Metal Panic! Action Figures
Sanity is Optional replied to Archer's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
You need to do a Special Order, and point them at the P-Bandai page for the Gernsback. After that they'll send you an email asking you to do the upfront payment.- 347 replies

Rather than CDJ, I ended up using FromJapan. Especially since I'm getting 2, and they only charge the fees once. The downside is $450 upfront.- 347 replies

To make sure I get one, I can bite that bullet. But god, it stings. Wish I could just order direct from P-Bandai, they're only charging 24840, and orders are still open.- 347 replies

Yeah, NY never sells out of P-Bandai that fast. Anyone know other places to get it? CDJ has it, but limit 1 and 29808yen.- 347 replies

They charge upon shipping.
-
NY's sold out at 22k now. Guess their gouging wasn't so bad people didn't bite.
-
Secondary benefit of using Amazon: their servers don't even blink at what we did to NY/AmiAmi.
-
Eh, picked up a second at Amazon Japan, since it was only ¥19,200 shipped.
-
Managed to get 1 at AmiAmi, then cartjacked at NY. Oh well, I only needed one, so that's fine.
-
HLJ is up. Got one at AmiAmi.
-
HS and Ami are up.

Ami up

I feel a disturbance in the force, as if millions of F5 keys cried out and were silenced.
-
Got my web-monitor going at 10sec intervals.
-
It's weird they missed this time around, then again might mean their pre-order lasts more than 5sec.
-
Man, between 1-2 of these, and a pair of Metal Build Gernsbacks, December is gunna be expensive
-
Plus as NY is the last to go, if you miss there you're SOL.
-
I do want that stand, because bling.

I'm betting it's showing local time, rather than JST. I'm over in PST and it's showing 0:00, which is midnight. I'm guessing it's showing 3:00 for those on EST.
