Special Sauce

I've seen those too. They're pretty neat. For what they cost it would be nice to see more accessories like that added. Of course it would probably end up being a Tamashii Nations exclusive

My few Ebay purchases have also gone well. It's how I got my VF-31S and armor set. Seller actually dropped the price a good chunk after PM'ing him and he shipped them like they could withstand a nuclear blast.

That's good. Maybe the bag thing was just an outlier

I'm kinda with you there @rocketblast I hate Ebay but it's better than dealing with losing sleep for nothing. I really hope now that the HG/BW deal is done some American retailers can start carrying Macross stuff again.

Yeah except when you pay them for it only to tell you AFTER you email them asking why you didn't get a order confirmation and they say whoops you didn't get it and then don't refund your money. It literally takes seconds to issue a refund through Paypal. It should have been automatic when I brought it to their attention. Instead I've been waiting for the last 6 hours to issue it back. I'll probably have to wind up disputing it through Paypal. First and Last time I order from AE. I don't know how it's even possible for me to pay for an order after it was out of stock. None of it seems right.

Yikes. That sounds pretty bad. How was yours packed @vladykins was it better than weiser21?

That would be a pretty nice kit. They really should do those. The only one I've seen that had anything like that was the VF-19 punch effect. There might be others but that's the only one I know of

@weiser21 What were your shipping issues with them?

I'm not even sure what they're talking about in regards to another edition.

So Anime Export processed my order, took my money, then told me that they can't fulfill my order but still haven't issued my refund. What the hell is that nonsense?

Yeah, I believe it's only the leg missiles though

There's a site called http://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/ They sell used Valks as well. You can also check the For Sale section for better deals here: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/forum/9-for-sale-trade/ Check it often as people put stuff up for sale all the time. Lastly check here for a list of retailers who sell the items you're looking for:

So I contacted Bombusbee to get an answer about the total price for those who ordered from them. I didn't order from them because I was able to score elsewhere. Hopefully this helps. Here was their response:

Nice. I haven't gotten mine yet. Hopefully soon.

@Duymon they eventually send you an email notification for your order? It's in my order history and I have my Paypal confirmation, just not sure if they send anything as well.

Did anyone else see an option to wait to pay until the product was in stock at AE? I didn't see one. I just assumed I had to pay up front. Their price was a little cheaper anyway.

Whew, got one at AE. Paid up front just like everybody else. Too panicked to look for a different option

I thought they already sold there's so that's good. Another option.

Ready for a late night. Good luck everyone!

Looks like the bar is bent too but it could just be the angle of the photo. Where did you buy it?

Is Nin-Nin a good place to PO from? Just wondering if anyone has ordered from them before and if they had a good experience?

Sorry, I see you meant the just the armor parts set not the full figure and armor set package. My bad.

I just looked and it doesn't show that it can be purchased.

Ok cool, hopefully I can score next week

Does anyone know if Okiniland put up the full set of the GBP armor with the VF-1J or just the armor?
