  1. I only go to NY for Arcadia Premiums, P Bandai, and TWE stuff. Retail I get from HLJ mainly, sometimes Hobby Search.
  2. Depends whose butt...
  3. I'l be completely honest. There's probably some color combination that would look good with that stripe pattern. Gold, blue, black and white is not it, however.
  4. There's a photo of it built w/o lil' drakens on the website.
  5. I doubt they'll re-release (unless there really was a QC/yield issue), though they probably will release an Arad VF-31a, and possibly a unit 02 VF-31a.
  6. Fext Hobby contacted me regarding the initial order where the price was in HK$ rather than US$. Short story was either cancel the order, or cancel and re-order with a $5 credit.
  7. I mean deciding, for instance, every month there's a net $300 for spending on toys. Any extra carries over to the next month. Putting it in a separate checking or savings account with an automatic transfer would make it pretty easy to control.
  8. Ami-Ami's not so bad, the Hi-Metal strike was 8000yen. Looks like someone bought that one off of AmiAmi though.
  9. I highly suggest budgeting out a certain amount per month for spending on hobbies (including valkyries), and using that as a guideline.
  10. Yup, Hi-Metal VF-1S Roy here as well, because the HMR one costs soooo much.
  11. I meant the one on Mandarake I purchased, it was unclear if it was a 10-pack or not.
  12. I had to buy all my VF-25s from Mandarake. I wasn't even collecting Valkyries when they were released. Lucked out and got a VF-25S used for only ¥20,000. Then another ¥30,000 for his armor.
  13. I picked one up really early, order number was still 1001, I think they started at 1000.
  14. Cool, here's hoping it was a 10-pack rather than a single in that case.
  15. Good news! My ebay seller says that it arrives with them next week, so as long as they're not fibbing I'll at least get one.
  16. I bought the Arcadia YF-19, on sale, in Dec 2016. It was released in early 2013.
  17. I've already got an Arcadia YF-19 and Yamato YF-21, having the same from Bandai would be awesome. Of course, I imagine the pre-order madness for Banday YF-19 and YF-21 will be completely insane.
  18. I've got one on order from an ebay seller as well, hoping either they or NY can come through, but starting to doubt I'll end up with either. As long as I get refunded when it falls through I can wait though.
  19. Honestly? I'd change the price and eat it, depending on the volume. Then chalk it up as a learning experience to check the currency before putting things live.
  20. Especially since if they do a reprint it'll probably be a Premium version, and cost north of $400, on top of being a production volume to match pre-orders.
  21. Did they say that? I must have missed it.
  22. I ordered a second one, at full US price of ~$52. Oh well, at least I got the first one for $8. $60 for two doesn't sting so much.
  23. Plastic spoons are good for practicing painting on.
  24. The suspicion is that non-US customers got theirs first, and now they're finally getting to US orders.
