Woah...never really paid attention. That's awesome. YESSS. Rainbow canopy what?

I cannot wait until mine gets out of limbo and either moves in the delivery process or is returned to Manda.

Anyone getting an update on SSPs yet? P-Bandai is showing "Shipped on April 15, 2020." I don't expect to begin hearing about it from NY until next week at the earliest, but know that some people did Proxies.
-
I actually have an extra one sealed if anyone is interested. I didn’t put up a listing here yet, but am on the straight shooters list. PM me.

Good news - customer service refunded my Bundle. And, I'm glad I was able to just purchase the stand-alone in addition instead of waiting for the reply first. Seems it's sold out now. So, I have the stand alone for $291 total. I'd call that a win.

Yeah, I'm honestly cool with it either way. I actually ordered the Bundle on Sat before it was officially "live" and then ordered the non-bundle today. So if customer service isn't cool with it, I'll just have an extra to keep or sell.

Did you happen to catch this live with an "Add to Cart" before being sold out?

Right on, totally get why you wouldn't want that. And, @crackpot doesn't seem to be referring to JP proxy services: In my mind, a proxy is a JP seller being domestic in Japan. They aren't an etailer shop, but they are a JP service, hence, EMS, DHL, etc. is still required unlike purchasing from the States. But yeah, to your point YMMV on that. For me, my total from Bluefin was $331. The Int'l stuff that I do for Macross is only because I can't do it elsewhere easily. It's a pain. At least you're being honest. haha. But I'm not one of those people. I regularly contribute. And if I recall, a ton of people helped you on the DX 1/48 thread when you first arrived. Food for thought. We all have cranky days. Especially, when our lives are upside down right now.

You're assuming that the price was correct on a listing that likely was never intended to be "live." (It's either no longer live because they ran out of stock before ever announcing or because they were just mocking up the listing and accidentally made it live.) Also, for me, the price was less expensive with shipping than if I leveraged one of the lower POs that you're referring to. Even if we could do SAL by the time this is released (which is doubtful,) it still ends up being with $5 of Bluefin. The only one I've seen for cheap enough is MyKombini which sold out right away over night on release. If you live in a place like CA with high tax, then YMMV. Edit: And, YES, dude does Bluefin need a better UI for the website. It sucks! Haha.

Quick heads up: This is no longer live. I anticipate the proper listing will go live tomorrow at 4:00 PM PDT since that this the day and time for the rest of the non-Japanese regions on P-Bandai. But guess we'll see. The other regions already have a listing posted on P-Bandai with "Pre-order Starts Soon" language.

This is sad and also possibly impacting of shipments, releases, etc.: https://www.npr.org/sections/coronavirus-live-updates/2020/04/13/832981899/emergency-declared-in-japanese-prefecture-hit-by-2nd-wave-of-coronavirus-infecti

I was afraid of that. Stinks
-
I doubt it will be pushed at this point. It’s only two days away (Japanese time,) and they have made several announcements for products in April being delayed. These SSPs have remained on target throughout. They would’ve likely announced by now if they were to push these. Manufacturing would’ve already delivered and product should be preparing for shipment wouldn’t you think?

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Nice! -
That’s why I ordered two and hoping for at least one.
-
Basically, for me I like to keep TV and DYRL schemes separate, so I tried to anticipate what that would like for future releases (though I doubt I have it down to a science). Hopefully, they keep re-releasing missiles as further Valks are released.
-
The only issue right now is Int’l shipping. It’s not worth it unless you can get DHL, UPS, or FedEx. JapanPost is so delayed with EMS and SAL isn’t an option. I feel more confident with Bluefin’s customer service in shaky times like these. Even though their warehouse is down, so it’s unlikely any of us will get it in June even when released. Edit: Though it looks like Bluefin is showing an Aug release.

Thanks for the heads up on EVA2020. I rolled with it as well. I’m going to keep an eye on this as well to just make sure there isn’t a price difference. It will likely show up on p-Bandai US: https://p-bandai.com/us/item/N2516615001001 Looks like all of the other non-Japanese regions go live on Tues the 14th at 4:00 PM. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the same for the States.

Besides, the less you all use them, the better chance @Slave IV and I have of landing a PO during PO madness! ...I’ll just probably complain a little about timeliness of delivery because I’m impatient LOL

Soo jealous! My package is arriving late. Was supposed to come today. Damn USPS.
