So after Nora sv 51. Is it safe to say the next Zero valk will be the vf-0A? Crossing my fingers 🤞🏽

We're still not sure he's talking about the GBP. Kinda makes it hard to give a smart reply to the OP.

Lol sorry fellas 😅 yeah I was talking bout the GBP… looks like I might have to cough up the 320usd 😫

I take it I’m late to the party.. sold out everywhere?

I almost missed this. 

I PO’d from NY awhile back. Is there anyway to go back and change the shipping method?

It’s the equivalent of a web exclusive from Bandai so no, they probably won’t.

How about cdjapan? I wanna use my discount

When you check your profile on the site is it still listed in the Shopping Services List? And when you click on it you get what's below? Just making sure I did everything right (or maybe we both did it wrong, LOL). It worries me a bit that it still says that if unpaid after 3mo the order will be canceled. That said, it does show the payment has been made in the Payment History.

 

 

That’s what mine looks like as well.. I’m more worried that I wasn’t as descriptive on my product details lol but the price matches so thats good enough for me 

Just now, sqidd said:

They already sent my payment request. You should have yours soon.

Yeah just got it filled out. That was fast

Awesome thanks guys! Says it’ll take 2 business days to process. More excited for this than the SV-51wish I had enough for 2 but in the process of buying a new car

I ordered through FromJapan. Unfortunately they wanted the full amount upfront. I guess at least I'm insulated from even worse exchange rates. 

It’s already up for sale?

As others have noted, you can use either a proxy or a forwarding service to buy directly from Arcadia. Here's a quick summary:

A proxy (meaning a service like Buyee or From Japan) is a convenience service where a middleman buys exclusive items for you directly from a shop or auction site that doesn't ship internationally. There is a fee for this convenience, but usually everything works out for high priced items like this one. It's worth noting that proxies often require full payment up front for the item itself, and will then send two follow-up shipping payment requests. The first is for the domestic shipping to their warehouse. The second is for international shipping to you.  

A forwarding service (like Tenso) has a similar use model at a high level. You have a service that gives you a physical location in Japan to ship items which are then shipped to your international address. If you look a little more closely, though, the details are a slightly different. With a forwarding service no one is ordering items for you. You are ordering the items yourself directly from your favorite Japan retailers and inputting the forwarding address as your "Japan" address. Also, in order to get a forwarding address, Japan law requires ID to verify that you are who you say you are. 

Thanks for the info! Anyone recommend one over the other? Never used this method before 

How do proxy’s work? And where can I get them for this release. I need this so bad

Whhhy! I saved enough for 2 of these. Now I’ll probably have to pay the same amount for 1 after the crazy markup.

Is this delayed? N-Y hasn't asked for payment yet and they usually do so at least 2 weeks in advance of the release date.

I was charged by CDJpaan last week.

Damnit looks like I’m getting 2.

Passing on vf-4 for 2 of these.. wish the PF VF-0S was weathered 

Excited about this but I really hope we here some more news about the PF 0D soon 

Well I’m throwing in the white flagI’ll just have to buy a new mod for my car to cheer me up

Wait was there a PO for the VF-0D already?

Do you have the Yamato Ivanov?

If so, and if the leg issues are fixed in this one , i’d  for sure go for the OD. Purely based on @Loliconwonderfest pics..

I have neither. Just the 0A and 0S... right now I’m leaning towards 0D(especially if the paint matches the pic). Maybe if/when there’s a PF SV51 way down the line I’ll have money saved up for that.

Can’t decide to get this or the SV51  unfortunately can’t afford both
