My Metal Build ARF Kai from CDjapan took 7 weeks via EMS.

NY now listed at 29,800 yen.
I have the first reissue and mainly want the super part. May be I will just get the super part from Mandarake.

CDJapan or HLJ - both run out of stock during the checkout process....
AmiAmi was slow but manage to finish checkout, got the email.

A Disclone like posable pilot figure is a big surprise.

Before anyone get too excited, search "hachette collection tomcat" on ebay and look at the price..
From what I can tell, their business model for these large model are subscription service, and they mail a set of pieces to you every week or every month. It may take 50+ sets to complete the model. Some initial sets will be sold in magazine rack in e.g. 7-11 in Japan at low price to entice customers.

@CF18Hold up... is that a picture of your collection... AT WORK? I think I know who's desk I'm going to raid on my last day before I quit or get laid off!
What kind of stand are you using to prop up your VF-31E and J in that picture?
Yes, at work.
Stand came from the gray market thread:
-
With armor, it can still stand on the legs if the ground is not too slippery. The elbows can hold the weights only at certain angles. The add-on clip on the back don't seems to be useful - it will just fly off if the big cannon's weight applies on it.
Haven't try to transform it yet.

N-Y is always a risk. I recall a package lost in transport as I waited 6 weeks with no movement of the item on tracking. Contacted them 3 times for a new shipment or refund and they repeatedly told me no and that the shipment was on its way. Got my cc company involved and successfully got refunded and N-Y ended up banning my account. Lo and behold the item never arrived. I have a new account with them, but only use them as a last resort now.
Yeah NY is the only shop I deal with that still use hand writing for shipping address. My last EMS package from them was routed to the wrong city before re-routed back to the right one, my guess was due to computer did not read the hand written postal code correctly.

OMG I managed to place GX-88 order with HS and VF-1S with Amiami...

Apparently a YF-29 with super pack combo may be released in the future.

Another scan. It's a must buy for me, but those extra markings on the upper legs are just weird.

I still wouldn't try it for any long-term display.
It don't looks as back heavy as VF-25S, but I would probably still use the support arms.

Oh, the new launch arm stand have quite a lot of improvement over the old one.
- storage space.
- two extra stabilizing legs.
- round plug adapter for VF-0, SV51.
- no exposed screw holes on the big arm.
- 4800 yen is only a bit more than the original price (around 4000 yen at 2004), cheaper than the knock off

This is what Zenmarket.jp charges me:
Final shipping from Japan will be calculated when it arrives.
Order limit at Tamashii shop is 4 units per account, so that's probably why CDjapan don't even bother. They don't want to pull multiple account/address tricks unlike NY. NY specialize with these limited item, list them at attractive price and profit from their higher shipping cost.

Yes Bandai reissued a bunch of older stuff for Feb and March for what ever reason. Browse around AmiAmi and you can see a bunch of Robot Spirits and a few Super Robot Chogokin (Aquarian EVOL and Giant Robo) at half price, even in pre-order status.

Finally got mine. Any tips on how to loosen the super tight shoulder joint?
And I got assembly error on the hip bar. The error don't affect anything other than keep the leg from perfectly pointing forward in soldier mode. I tried removing that screw but the part still stay tightly together. Have any one disassembled this thing?
