Just got the shipping notice, finally.
-
Broke down and ordered a second VF-31a via Ebay (CDJ), ended up being like $0.90 more than the one from NY (with 20% off code), and I won't have to worry about waiting 2 weeks for it to ship.

YOU'RE YELLOW! VF-25F turning all sorts of colors

Anyone know a method that will remove sunburn from clear parts? The above methods are just a surface treatment, as I understand it. -
Could have been worse, Delta was far far better than G no Reconguista... Bandai, give us some HMR VF-1EXs, I need Mirage's so I can put in formation with my Milia and Max 1Js.
-
I pre-ordered/paid back when it showed up on NY.
-
My VF-1S is the same, still hasn't shipped from NY.
-
At least I can pre-order web exclusives without refresh-spamming and staying up all night.
-
Thought the 21,600 was the MSRP without tax.
-
Actually... Does the P-Bandai listed price include tax like normal MSRP prices? If so, it's cheaper than the other VF-31s (23,760 w/tax vs 22,680), if it doesn't include tax it's base price is 1,080¥ higher.
-
NY Still hasn't even shipped mine out... SO SLOOOOOOOOW.
-
Indeed, and probably will appreciate more in value over time tbh, since it's not getting a massive commercial release.
-
I like the new booster placement, certainly looks to take up a lot less shelf space that way.
-
I've got a new wish-list item: Super pack for the VF-31 including alternate weapon pods.
-
The Monsters has such nice nose art too, I'll be honest the main reason I have a VB-6 is because of it.
-
What I really want is valkyries with nose-art, so far the only one I know of is the Koenig Monster, and that's a desdroid rather than a valk (even though it transforms?).
-
Well, got my pre-order in at NY. I think I'll definitely be displaying this one in fighter mode to hide the drone charger, and show off those missiles. edit: $228 registered SAL.
-
So far it's only up at BigInJapan: https://www.biginjap.com/en/completed-models/19726-macross-delta-dx-chogokin-vf-31a-kairos.html

I'm hoping Bandai includes an alternate pod (or more) in the super-pack for this.

Well, I guess it's time to start modeling up a replacement for the charger half of the weapons pod.
-
Small aperture and good illumination?
-
Honestly, it just seems like it's curved slightly wrong, which would match if someone made them without properly taking the effects of material thermal shrinkage into account on a thin curved part.
-
I don't have any paint chipping on mine like that, but the doors do have some gaps on two of the missile packs. Plus the corner of the outer door catches near the hinge when I open or close it, on all 4 of them.
-
I actually like the add-on pack. Delta was sorely lacking in the missile department, which the missile packs fix. I was a bit disappointed in the lil' drakens, the Ghosts in my renewal RVF-25 super pack look much better, but that's more a design issue with the drone itself.
-
Bandai knows how to make their stuff desirable: make sure that demand > supply.
-
Eh, I don't regret many purchases, but the SV-262 for all of the shiny tampo printing, just wasn't that great of a design. Now the VF-31 Hayate, and the upcoming 31A, those I won't regret.
