  1. Since that a fair chunk of us here are waiting for the PF edition of the VF-1J with the GBP, what is the guestimate price that it should go for? Nearly double the price for this version at 42k yen or around 35k - 38k yen?
  2. NY has the pre-order up. https://www.nippon-yasan.com/figures/30865-macross-vf-1j-armored-valkyrie-ichijou-hikaru-type-reissue.html
  3. Suspend your shipping til the whole mess is over. Edit: Even if you change it right now, EMS is delayed and DHL shipping from NY will cost you a fortune or your first born kid. SAL is not even an option as per Japanpost.
  4. I'm also in that same boat and as for others that are waiting for the PF version.
  5. I still have the Yammie V.2 version (Rainbow Canopy) and the busted two shoulder joints with the Shapeways replacement parts not installed. Which interns reminds me of this posted in June 11/2018 by Geekz (see pic below). So Arcadia has took more than two years to re-issue this! What's with HLJ's pricing at $22,610 USD?? That's majorly F****ed up pricing!! (I know it's a glitch)
  6. Sorry... Your crap out of luck most likely. If EMS: It's going to be a very long time before it gets sent out. SAL: Not going to touch it. Only DHL and providing that you followed what I did at the top this page.
  7. Guess what's up on Toyark? Tony Bacala has done a mini review in the Fext Dios. https://news.toyark.com/2020/04/03/fext-system-modular-diorama-sets-from-fext-hobby-384055 Did you do some enabling to Tony @Saburo to pick up a few sets?
  8. Ugh!! Jungle has another copy of the DX 1s Hikaru for grabs at 29.7k yen (sealed) and they have posted the Japanpost suspension warning on their international front page. https://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/products/detail/398847
  9. Update on the shipping on my side of things. Manda has upgraded my shipping from EMS to DHL after I sent them a email (last night) about changing the method used due to the Suspension Notice and mentioned that I have not made the confirmation yet and will pay the difference (within 12 hours). Here's the final result as follows: ------------------------------------------------------------ Subtotal: 16,000 yen Shipping Fee: 4,350 yen ------------------------------------------------------------ Grand Total: 20,350 yen ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ Shipping Method: DHL EXPRESS WORLDWIDE The order will be sent in 1 box(es). ------------------------------------------------------------ So that means from a 3,700 yen via EMS shipping to 4,350 yen DHL shipping, I'm taking no chances however I'll be nabbed with Customs when it reaches into Canadian soil. Hopefully that you can get the HMR Regult when this whole worldwide situation is over @DYRL VF-1S. Edit: Payment made to Manda and received the email via PP.
  10. You're in the safety zone @jenius as your located in the States as Manda has stopped SAL indefinitely (see Japanpost's PFD in regrards to shipping restrictions). The other question is: Who knows if your stuff from NY has ever shipped at all before this situation unfolded?
  11. Your better off using DHL as EMS will take forever to mail out due to delays and SAL is a no go providing that your not within the "Suspended Country" list.
  12. Another DX Hikaru 1s for 26k yen at Complex (opened, package damaged) https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1128769927&ref=doc&keyword=マクロス&lang=en Edit: Changed a few things
  13. Arkham Harley details on Toyark (now updated with pricing and pre-orders) https://news.toyark.com/2020/04/02/batman-arkham-knight-harley-quinn-figure-by-hot-toys-385822 To be released Q2/Q3 of 2021, $266 USD and pre-orders up on Sideshow https://www.sideshow.com/collectibles/dc-comics-harley-quinn-hot-toys-906232
  14. DHL in my mind is that the package/item that you send out has to be at the customer's hand within a few days (2 to 3 days) barring Customs if your country has it. EMS takes at least a week before you get it.
  15. Has anyone here emailed Manda and requested the shipping to be changed from EMS to DHL (providing that you haven't made the payment yet and not in the Suspend Restriction Zone)?
  16. One review on Kennric https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=834e6MM3glk Pics taken from Sideshowcollector's forum - http://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=194736&page=146
  17. I know that shipping to where ever you are is a go ahead (however delayed via EMS) or you want to try DHL, Mirage's Supers is up for grabs. For 12k yen (Item A, Box B) on Amiami - https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-038852-R
  18. Hayao was done in for the Hi-Metal line only. Unknown if he will get the upgrade into the HMR line up.
  19. I'm still on the list as Canada is not affected by the suspension, however I might change my EMS to DHL if Manada does send me another email as I haven't paid for the order yet (or I'll email them for the switch). Based on their shipping carts for a 1.5 kg/3.3 lbs box. EMS: 2,700 yen DHL: 2,050 yen (I'm going to get dinged for Custom Fees regardless) Edit: Forgot weight of box and corrected the shipping rate.
  20. Your post just made me think and I just did this quickly (I believe that this was done before, however with the two Yamato scales in tow). Here's the DX VF-1s Strike Hikaru and the 1/60 Yamato Q-Rau Max as is.
  21. That is "If and When" Bandai does decide to make the pre-orders for it.
  22. In that case, I don't mind another couple of weeks wait for the MP shipment from Manda via EMS if it gets shipped out.
  23. Going to step in this thread after reading it. I actually have a MP on hold from Manda (via EMS) and the payment is nearing the 5 day deadline. Based on the PDF file, I'm not affected by Japanpost mail shipping into Canada where I'm at right now. However, if Manda emails back and tells me another mailing option via DHL or wait till the present situation has subsided over (therefore keeping the package on hold till then), I'll then make my decision as I'm still going to pay for the purchase regardless. I only emailed Manda once as I doubled ordered the same item twice and they cancelled the secondary order. This actually reminded me of my DX YF-19 Full Set that I ordered from the Utsunomiya branch (upon release) during the Typhoon season and I got it sent out by using DHL and got dinged with Custom Fees. I'm putting my Macross collection of hold for now until the next DX pre-order goes up (either the DYRL Roy/Max 1s or the YF-21) Thanks for the info @Alphahorizon and @Bolt for the links as I will be also checking it now and then.
  24. The 1/48 Yammie has covered that, however not in DX format yet (which is up to Bandai to decide when to release it) Mechas where done in the 1/60 Yammie scale only.
  25. You guys can also post this on the "You're Yellow! VF-25 turning colours thread". Same method used as well.
