Does anyone still wants/needs a 31JKai? There's another copy available at the Shibuya store.
-
Why does this remind me of Kamen Rider Kabuto to a degree?

I got the HMR VF-1J Armoured at 18k yen from Sahra couple of months ago, as I passed on when it was first released then made my mind to get a copy before it becomes vapourware. Umeda had it for 6k to 8k yen (box re-sealed/open used/box damaged) back then and the last price was 20k yen at various locations. I'm the opposite of you @derex3592. I had the Yammie V.1 years ago, sold it and trying to get the Yammie V.2/Arcadia VF-1J Armoured now (preferably the Arcadia version this time). Maybe I'll just end up getting the PE version (if it does get released). I know that the Yammie V.2 VF-1J Armoured had problems with the exploding shoulders. Isn't that the same problem that you had with one of your Yammie V.2 valks @Shizuka the Cat (hopefully that it wasn't the VF-1J Armoured) and you used the Shapeways replacement correct? -
I was not including Mirage's 262 Ba in the lineup @Mommar. I was just making a reference to the Arial Knights in regards the Delta Platoon during Operation: Ragnarok and Rogue Squadron in ST: ANH.
-
Congrats for snagging one of the 31a from Manda.. Note: If anyone still wants the 31J Kai, there's a supposed listing for it in on Jungle. Only one copy available as of now and the adage goes "You snooze, you lose".
-
Elintseeker with the combo of Fast/Strike Packs? Although it's not cannon, I like the aggressive look to it.
-
Unless you want or if anyone else wants to make a squadron of the 262 with either Keith's/Roid's Hs leading the pack with the Ba's not far behind (a la Delta platoon: Operation Ragnarok (?) or Rogue Squadron in ST: ANH during the Death Star run). Note: It's been a while since I've seen Delta so I might have forgotten a fair bit of stuff.

All my purchases that was TWE from Amiami (S.H. Figuarts Duke) and NY (don't use them anymore after I got the HMR Strike Roy and the S.H. Figuarts Tune Chaser add-ons) where shipped in the brown shipper boxes. Haven't got a TWE from Manda yet; however I may at a later point in time. Edit: I used Jungle for my VF-171EX Alto Armoured Parts which was listed as used with no brown shipper box. The brown shipper box to me is an added protection as the actual product is inside.

I don't really know. Here's my copy of Nora as I don't know the exact colour name of this one here; however Mirage is more of a Magenta colour. Can anyone verify the exact colour used in Nora's SV-51y? Edit: It is more Maroon in colour (after giving it much thought)?
-
Sigh.. If the Ostrich had the defence capabilities (and not nerfed), then Hikaru would had a chance to get away from the N-Gers.

@Rogueload: Are you waiting to get Arcadia's version of the SV-51 since you have the Yamato Nora? I snagged a Nora from Manda sometime in the beginning of this year (don't know which month exactly) as l prefer this version than compared to Ivanoff's or the Mass production ones. -
Should be a disclaimer here: That is when you get your 31a after many months of agonizing waiting..

@kajnrig: I stand corrected. I somehow always think of the Ha instead of the Hs as I know the Ba is the other variant.
-
I can actually see that in my mind, however the Ba will be the general release as (per the CF 171), while the Elvis and the Mirage will be the TWE. If the Elvis and the Mirage was the TWE, it better not be like the 31a mess in where it caused a headache for many that where actually waiting for it to be released after the pre-orders where up six months ago.. I can be wrong in that too. If one person has a busted up 262Ha and be willing to be a Guinea Pig for the project, I can see it as feasible; however does anyone want to give up their copy of the Draken? I think not..
-
I was looking at the highest price for it @F360 on FromJapan. @Sanity is Optional: The highest list for the VF-171EX Maruyama was at 33k yen on Manda.
-
Just looking on FromJapan on the prices for the SV-262 Ha to see the listings for it. Seen one listing for 33k yen or 35k yen buy it now (new and sealed in box).. Are you that fracking nuts?? That's the price of the 31a! If the 262 Ha is sitting in bargain bins at a lower price do to the fact that no one wants to pick it up, then this definitely price gauging (not to mention that the 171EX Maruyama is asking 70k yen).

@dafob: I was actually typing to use the tape method over the red and the black, however I got ninjaed by you before I can post it..

Slave VI is correct in saying that 3rd party stuff (especially TFs) tend to not get released on the date as planned hence the wording "ETA" is used. A fair amount of people still use the "ETA date of release" as the actual official release day; however in reality, its usually two/three weeks after the ETA.
-
You think that Bandai will make the transformation for the other 262 variants easier for us? I don't think so and they'll make it harder for us and; therefore make us toss it against the wall in frustration.
-
I'm right behind you in using Manda! Mostly for Figuarts, TFs, Macross and few other things as well.. Used them for my Neca Alien Queen as I couldn't get one as I missed the boat and after that and the rest is history..
-
Hmm.. I might have to take a note this display if and when I get my collection up. Need to get the Monster one of these days and use the fishing line for my other HMRs and possibly one of the 1/60 valks that I have.
-
Follow up on @seti88post on the kit. Pre-orders up on Amimai and hopefully on others as well. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=TOY-RBT-4546&page=top

If that someone is very desperate for a 31a, I'm sure that they will cave in.
-
On a serious note, we all know that Arad's 31s is to be released in August/September and hopefully with Chuck's 31E not too far behind, I guess that Bandai will surprise us with the Elvis or the Ba variants soon? If not, then I be waiting for the Arcadia SV-51 (and in that way I can build up my funds).
-
Just reading all of your updates on the 31A situation.. Seriously that sucks and a fair chunk of you guys literally got burnt to a crisp with NY acting like a scammer in this regards and leaving you all high and dry with no goods to show. This could be another reason(s) why as well too. Still shady in my books..
