    Anime Export in in Japan. They're reliable but don't leave outstanding paid orders there too long. they get lost sometimes.

    Oh, right. And yeah, that has happened to me but years ago with some lost orders. Since then, I've only used AE as a backup and/or last option and have always had my items shipped soon after release. Good note of caution for sure.

    The VF-31A, has been the exception rather than the rule. I have ordered plenty of multiple Bandai web exclusive orders from NY over the years and had no issues receiving any of them. I did not order the 31A from them, but that is the only time I've heard of this issue with NY

    In a case like this, I would have my CC company refund my money and then use a different one if I ever wanted to buy from them again (probably wouldn't want to, lol).

    Yup, that is why I have only used them only during desperate PO times. Such as an impulse VF-31A order, and POs for the Chuck 31 and DX Max VF-1A. All extreme examples, haha. But, just wanted to warn people to be careful when stockpiling orders at AE for an extended period of time is all. Other than those orders, they have always been fine. Maybe their system is just screwed beyond a certain number of days. All of my other piles of orders (HLJ, BBTS) I have never had an issue with.

    I would beware of stockpiling orders at AE indefinitely. They basically lost a couple of valks for me, never refunded me and stopped responding to my emails about it. Perhaps I waited too long, but my orders are still showing as outstanding on the site and they won't fulfill them. I've given up trying to message them about it.

    They have been good on other orders since. But i basically use them as a last resort and I always ship immediately.

    you know what would be crazy?

    we all misinterpreted the translation and everyone lands multiple  perma tampo'd hikaru strike packs. 

    That would be HILARIOUS :D

    But that would make them easier to find afterwards since people would have spare sets to unload. More custom fodder lol

    I ordered 4x strike/super part sets from NY. Just enough to cover a squadron of 4 (Roy, Hikaru, Max and Hazi).  Came out to 44,100 JPY so about $102 USD/set shipped with EMS

    I might order just a couple of extra down the pre order window road just in case. IIRC, the Yamato 1/48 fast packs were never really too hard to come by at decent prices, but the Yamato 1/60 standalone fast packs have always been hard to find after the fact. I would assume the DX set will be more like the Yamato since its most likely a one and done run - at least for these DYRL versions

    You need to relax @canklebreaker

    Its not like these DX valkyries have been easy to order. If you read back pages you can see many people who have missed out on Preorders on this because they go so fast. People can barely order for themselves at this rate let alone even more spares. If these DX valks were web exclusives like the fast packs, sure it is cool. But, please understand what you are requesting. You have asked people to try and beat all the bots, scalpers, etc out there for this particular item

    If that article about Bandai combatting scalpers is accurate, they should do that for Macross.  If Bandai can make a second run of Eva in a month for yhe fans they should do it for Macross fans.

    Bandai is not combatting scalpers. They can care less. Eva was a one time exception bc the creator was persuaded by fan outrage.  All Bandai cares about is Gundam, that their collectibles are hot, and sell out so they hold no inventory
