I just use nitrile for everything, much less expensive ($10 for 100, $15 for 200), though your hands may start sweating after a while. Also I do some model building, and I want something that'll block paint rather than absorb it. The ones at my work are black, we get them from McMaster Carr. -
It's the ARX-7 Arbalest from Full Metal Panic. Try "powder free" nitrile gloves. I use them at work to handle optical elements, so they won't leave any residue whatsoever. Also less"sticky" than latex, easier to put on and take off.

Looks like it's actually cheaper to buy from Amazon Japan than CDJ, they're only charging ¥7063 for the Blueray (or ¥6261 for the DVD), and they will ship internationally. DVD Blue-Ray

Note that one's got some sun bleaching. The stand's got it bad, hard to tell if there's any on the figure itself.
-
I'm just pissed that with all these VF-31s so far, there's only the one pod (plus maaaaybe Chuck's radar pod). I know I'd buy the hell out of a super-pack that came with alternates.
-
Molds and designs are really goddamn expensive, they'd be idiots not to use them as much as possible.

That's odd, it's shown crouching in the promos.
-
What are your thoughts? I've got one, but it's still in the box due to a lack of space at the moment.
-
Just to check, VF-31A or VF-31C Supers?
-
Got a "preparation in progress" email from NY for my VF-31C Supers.

If you want good pictures, make sure you have good lighting. A desk-lamp or two with bright daylight LEDs improve the quality of shots quite a bit, even with a phone camera.
-
@Kicker773 has certainly spent more, and may even have more spent per period, what with his multiple copies of Yamato/Arcadia figures.
-
Not just you, I've been having issues as well.
-
I get SAL shipments all the time, rarely is there any damage to the goods inside (both EMS and SAL have similar minor damage to the shipping box sometimes). I'm thinking it might be due more to the local post office, rather than Japan Post.
-
I'm fine staying with the premium VF-0S I think. Though I wouldn't mind a premium re-issue of the VF-0D, seeing as it'd almost certainly have the leg fixes from the VF-0S, and the secondary market for those is stupid.
-
I misread the timestamp on my order, it was at 00:07:00AM, as in 7 minutes past midnight.
-
Well, my order was 10/7 at midnight+7minutes, so probably a couple weeks. edit: Has now been shipped. Exactly 2 months after the projected NY Release date of 3/24.
-
NY Just sent me an email, my VF-31A Kairos is preparing to ship. Order # 488864, Ordered on 10/7.

Nobody has reported this on other releases, at least not in the numbers we're seeing for the VF-1A, so you're probably safe. I imagine that Bandai has noticed the issue due to retailer returns.
-
I got 2 of them, both with the proper set of left and right parts.
-
Since I didn't buy a Messer, I might get one. Not sure.
-
Quick use of the google translate app says it's Hayate flying the plane, and it's a new version with re-designed wing so it can fold down, and has clips to attach Lil' Drakkens (sold separately).
-
To fit it back in the box, all you need to do is take off the ARMD carriers, right? It ought to fit back in with the covers on in that case.
-
Dunno about Shizuka, but I picked up a first release YF-21 from Mandarake. Unfortunately time has made the clear stand a bit brown, but at least it's uniform.
-
If you want that Vf-11 you'll have to fight me for it.
