    Done...Sadly, we can't even get the "veterans" to lead by example and post sales links in the appropriate "Where to Buy" threads, let alone the newbies... ;)

    Very sorry to cross- post this one, but I think some members will not want to miss out on this:

    OK, ridiculously too good to be true. DX VF-1J + armor set. Opened for inspection only. Less than a day remaining.  As of this listing, 11 Yen. Not 11k. Eleven. 

    Someone find out why it's this price in the fine print. Otherwise, open those wallets, lady (?) and gentlemen!"

    This figure is such a beauty. Still available at such a good price from several vendors, too. HLJ mailing brought it to my attention. 

    Too bad my PO moneys for this year are all spent on that 5PRO voltron. No more happy,  until next year. 

    I'm just cheering you guys on, those who have preordered. 

    Looking forward to your pictures when items are in your hands.  :drinks:

    I suppose as long as you see it at all in the next decade, N2G prevails!

    I had been posting some good deals online still available for this release, and sort of a personal reminder of the deals I (would) miss out on, because NNG was holding my moneys.

    (Yes,  I mentally torture myself a lot).

     

    Speaking of deals, here's another one for the armor parts- only: https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/r1015921127

    There are Nine sets available.

    Fixed it

    Scalpers prosper because of dummies like me. I may be looking for the cheapest deal,  but I am still paying scalper prices. Once you fall (back) into that collecting rabbit hole...

     

    Getting Yamato 1/48s was less cutthroat on secondary market even when it was several years after release. Vendors based out of HK would still post as auctions on evilbay. Shame that Yamato company went under.

    The only Bandai dxs listed on eBay i see by Japan based vendors are mostly buy it now but with head scratching mark ups. 

    I never understood why they post listings at double msrp. No one would buy them,  so why list at that price. 

    Make more valks available, or do re runs please,  Bandai.  :5:

    Yeah, there are certain favorites that I've collected multiples of that I have no intention of selling off.  My VF-19s are staying. :p  (Though, I might part with an Arcadia YF-19 once I get the PF version.)

    But with all the new 1/48 VF-1s?  I don't feel the need to keep so many of my old Yamatos.  I bought up some of the early Arcadia re-releases with the stands, but I really don't have a reason to keep those around now.  I'll probably boil my Yamato VF-1 collection down to the essentials, and sell off a few duplicates I've been holding onto, like the extra M&M Arcadia set I got, which I have no reason to keep after getting the PF versions.

    Even beyond that, I've got a few duplicates of the Bandai DX VF-1s that were bought as backups during all of the pre-order shenaniganry, and I could probably send them to a good home, and the multiple re-releases of the Hayate VF-31 means I could probably part with one of those easily.  Not to mention the pile of extra HMR releases I grabbed for.. some reason I can't even grasp now. :lol: 

    When you start questioning the rationale for having duplicates, it's just fueling the drive for me to catch up. :cray::fool:
