  1. I believe CD Japan use a proxy service for any valks that have been fully pre-ordered after the first round and the second order was offered later on (such as the case for the DX YF-19). Edit: As for which proxy services they use, I don't have a clue which one they use.

    Hi-Metal R

    Try this thread: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/45147-decals-library/.
  3. Just up on a few websites: Amiami: Supers for Mirage - https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-038852-R Manda: Arad up for 22k yen (I think that this has been up for awhile?) - https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1094619954&ref=list
  4. I'm doing the best of posting whatever I can find in regards to upcoming 1/6th stuff, however I'm in the middle of hopefully finding a 1/6th scaled horse for my pre-ordered figure to be released this month or next (depending in the final delivery date). Two HT pre-orders up as of this week: http://news.toyark.com/2018/08/13/black-panther-shuri-1-6-scale-figure-by-hot-toys-313379 http://news.toyark.com/2018/08/13/black-panther-wakanda-throne-by-hot-toys-313365

    Hi-Metal R

    Here's the corresponding vid for this since you have Hikaru and Minmay together.
  6. Crap... Looking at the pic that @tekeringhas posted, I wonder if the TIE Interceptor will possibly get reissued? They did so many versions of it during the years, why not an updated version?

    Macross figures

    This is the one that @no3Ljm has posted on the other page on July 29th (first pic on the Bandpresto Craneking EXQ). There's something about the eye's that make it too lifelike. Edit: I might be interested in this other than the Freja "Noodle Topper" version.
  8. Call me stupid... I literally just remembered this (don't know if you did read this in conjunction @ShadowVFX?) http://www.macrossworld.com/why-are-arcadia-products-so-expensive-by-mr-k/
  9. Just be fair... The SV-262Hs add on is available on Manda (last unit). https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1071422130&ref=dos It's going to be quite sometime before we even hear a peep of the Elvis or the Ba variant (including Mirage's version).
  10. Do we need to bring this article up again? I think so... https://www.forbes.com/sites/olliebarder/2017/09/08/arcadia-talks-about-how-it-makes-the-best-macross-and-megazone-23-toys-out-there/#2346e8c2e974 Don't forget that Bandai has been doing other stuff besides Macross for many years like what @treatmenthas mentioned.
  11. That's the Hot Toys and Herocross joint collaboration of the Limited Issue of Darth Vader (from the regular version with the crappy stand). Their Fett has the lighted up Mandalore Skull Logo (just look out for the rocket booster thrusters if you should get it as it has the thrusters are not attached securely to rocket pack. Edit: I believe that Hot Toys does own Herocross (just another another sister product). When you go onto Jungle and click on the Hot Toys selection, Herocross pops out on that list.

    I believe that this is done by default to make sure that you don't screw up your shipping method as I got the same email of payment last night. Switched back to EMS and waiting for the correction notice (I actually had this notice when I ordered my Arcadia VF-1s Strike Roy and my DX VF-171EX Alto).
  13. Double Manda delivery day! Sapporo: Robot Chogokin Mazinkaiser (Colour Z version) to go with my Max Factory version. Kokura: Herocross Darth Vader (Limited Edition - Imperial light up base) and Banpresto Flight Suit Mirage (used my 980 yen credit). Note: Used the SAL option for the two purchases. Almost a month from start to finish for the Mazinkaiser to be delivered.

    I used SAL small packet for my VF-31c from Amiami and it took a month and a day from the post of exchange port to my house in YVR. I guess where the place of your residence might have a say in it and how long it takes to fill up the shipping crate as well.

    Hi-Metal R

    That will be the Mountian Hoilday (Obon). @Alex GS is right that the next business day is Thursday.
  16. You forgot to mention Manda as well.. Their packing methods are also very good. If the outer boxes can take a beating and leave the inside product safe, then I'm good. That's one of my pet peeves. It takes umpteen hours to so call "bullet proof" the packaging and they sent it out weeks later and you paid by using EMS and not snail mail. I get that some may go the snail mail just to save on shipping costs, however pricer items are better off going EMS.

    Hi-Metal R

    Orders for the HMR Super O are opened up at AmiAmi. For those how have pre-ordered already from there way back (myself included), hopefully that they will send you the notices of payment soon. Note: I know that you can edit your shipping options; however, it says this in asterisks: *** Our store reserves the right to modify the shipping method and/or payment method of orders at our discretion. *** Edit: Already did change the shipping to EMS from SAL a minute ago. Not going to risk loosing this order. If you want to change it, change it now before they send you the billing notice. Here's the email reply: PLEASE NOTE: A new invoice will be sent for in-stock orders that have been modified. These orders will not be available for payment until a new invoice has been sent during our business hours. We ask for your patience and understanding.
  18. Ah! So my post did help you after all @BlueMax.
  19. I did some digging. Here's the JP Post for lost stuff. https://www.post.japanpost.jp/int/service/damage_en.html @Shizuka the Cat: You made me double think twice about my upcoming HMR Super O that I have my pre-order with. Still needs to be paid off and used SAL for postage. Hmm.. Maybe you should use EMS for your next order just to be on the safe side. On a side note: I'm actually waiting for a package from Manda via SAL (close to a month now). As of right now, it says still in transit and maybe still sitting on the docks to be loaded.
  20. Looks like someone has picked up Messer's Supers as list not listed anymore on Jungle; however, there is two more listings for Messer's 31f for a total of 5 choices.

    Hi-Metal R

    Can't go wrong with Manda and Jungle. You can still pre-order the Super O from AmiAmi and HLJ. Amiami: https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-038326 HLJ: https://hlj.com/product/BANN25875 (might be listed in CND as I'm located in VYR. Use the XE Currency converter for your specific place of residency) Note: You might have to clear your cookies from your browser if the image doesn't show up. I believe that the other suppliers have "Order Stop" posted.
  22. Jungle and Manda has Messer's valk. Jungle: Three choices http://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/?page_id=116&do=detail&id=103000008289 You might as well take the Supers along with it. http://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/?page_id=121&id=2408397 Manda: Two choices https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1087857991&ref=list For those who are still in the hunt for Arad, Amiami has one up for grabs for 23K yen. The one on Manda for 22k yen is gone while the 25K yen is still there. https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-037574-R
  23. Two listings for Arad's valk is up. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1093973594&ref=list
  24. @sh9000: That's fair haul there. Hmmm... Megs looks like he got lazy eyes and from the Koto Marvel Now series statues. As for Creed's head sculpt, not feeling it . Betsy and Tiger Stripe Wolvie are on my list to get when my LCS gets it in. Planning to get this eventually? http://news.toyark.com/2018/08/03/figure-complex-revoltech-psylocke-official-photos-312580 @Slave IV: Is this version of Betsy also on your list?
  25. I know that this isn't 1/6th scaled, however I have a feeling that someone is going to get this. http://news.toyark.com/2018/08/03/hot-toys-ant-man-on-flying-ant-and-the-wasp-miniature-collectible-set-312525 Edit: Many Hours later.. Looks like that I found this while looking through Sideshow. https://www.sideshowtoy.com/collectibles/marvel-thanos-hot-toys-903429/ Been released in March of this year, however, you can still order it.
