One more bit about min, in regards to the laser. No damage to the packaging or the shipping box, though the figure was placed in the shipping box upside-down.

I’ll send HLJ a message and the photo when I get home tonight. At least it’ll let them know things are going on, and they’ll probably give me a coupon. I doubt they’ll have any spare for replacements.

Haven’t opened the toy any further, but wanted to take a peek.

I’m not gonna bother trying to get a replacement from HLJ (I doubt they’ll have any), just gonna glue it. The tip is inside the packaging, near the canopy.

This isn’t the first trouble I’ve had with a YF-19, when I first got my Arcadia, it was missing a canard.

HLJ charged and shipping requested!

(Along with a bunch of other stuff from this month)

That’s what I figured. The big green missile device is the LPP-12, the other green one is the SPP-8 (which I just noticed has 8 barrels on it).

I did a bit of digging a couple years ago when Arcadia reissued their YF-19, which is when I found that thread.

All these talk made me check the mecha manual pages, and aside from the GU-15 gunpod reference, i noticed there wasn't any ordinance/payload references....if there is anyone who has em it would be nice to know too! 

Seto answered that question a couple of years ago on Mecha Talk (MAHQ’s forums)

July’s HLJ haul!

I wasn’t a fan of the 31S color scheme, until I saw the shade they used on the DX. It’s much less Christmassy than it first appeared.

I knew Dinobot was big, just didn’t realize how big.

Good Cool Kaiser VSX is a wonderfully over the top cluster gattai, yeah the feet don’t like to stay on when picked up, but I’m a fan for how ridiculous it is. (I’ll post a pic after work).

I wasn’t planning on picking this one up, until I saw the fingers.

My 31S is sitting in PW too, going to wait until Dinobot releases next week to ship everything.

And that’s after originally deciding that I wasn’t a fan of Arad’s color scheme, and not interested in buying his figure.

Well, I think I'm gonna take the store credit voucher for my 31A.

I had originally ordered 10/23, with Air Mail Registered.

I figure that money will be better spent elsewhere (Masterpiece Beast Wars Megatron preorder)

Yeah, the F-91 2.0 I got last month. Forgot about the lighting unit until after I shipped.

June’s haul.

Iron Man’s left bicep swivel was too tight, and it ended up twisting the peg off. Good news is that since the break is so far inside the bicep/shoulder assembly, there’s still enough friction to hold the arm on. I’ll just need to be extra gentle with that arm.

Put in a ticket, just asking for a status update. They responded:

Figured at worst I'd get this message, at best maybe give them a poke and hope it helps getting my order fulfilled.

N-Y haul! (No movement on my 31A yet)

The Lancelot is beautiful in hand, has metal in all the right spots internally. Most of the metallic gold bits are plated plastic, except for the chest. Joints are super tight, and in general a lot heavier than I was expecting, compared to a normal Robot Damashii.

Got one at HLJ, along with a Metal Robot Damashii Guren SEITEN, to go with my new Lancelot Albion figure.

I skipped Messer the first time around, wasn’t a fan of his color scheme, but with Arad’s preorder, I figure I may was well complete the set.

Preparation in progress for Mirage’s super parts, shipping confirmation for Metal Robot Damashii Lancelot Albion, but nothing about my Kairos preorder yet (10-23-17)

This month’s HLJ haul!

Can’t have Gundam Alex without Bernie’s Zaku (it even comes with effect parts to show the beam saber through the cockpit)

F91 is one of my favorite designs, lighting unit is currently sitting in PW, as it was on backorder when I shipped. I’ll ship it with the upcoming RE/100 Vigna Ghana.

Crane/Drill aren’t quite as fun as Scissor/Blade, but like the rest of Patranger’s stuff, it’s all much more cohesive in aesthetics. (Different colored police cars vs random assortment of aircraft with dials)

Looks like I’ll be getting a VF-31F. Skipped it first, wasn’t a big fan of the gray/black color scheme, but now that I’m basically getting everyone else, I might as well complete Delta Platoon. (at retail price, not really in a mood to deal with secondary market stuff)

This month’s HLJ haul.

Zoids are nice to mix things up from the usual humanoid Gundam kits.

Daizyuzin Minipla was on sale, plus it’s a nifty, comparatively inexpensive representation of the mecha.

The newest main character Gundam kit, yeah it’s based on an older kit, but it’s a solid and poseable build.

And the newest Lupinranger mecha, Scissors and Blade Dial Fighters, a pair of bladed stealth based fighter jets. (Plus this month’s free campaign item, the hammer dial fighter)

Got one at HLJ!

Went to bed before I got a confirmation. Figured that if it came through, great, if not, I still have my Arcadia.

I should be happy with my Arcadia, but this one’s missiles should be compatible with my Bandai hardpoints.

But the 180 days does apply for a refund. I'd go for that before escalating to a dispute.

Bah. Payed for mine on October 23, so I have until the 21st for the 180 day window to close.

Only thing it I don't want to lose my preorder on Mirage's Super Parts, plus I already paid for the Metal Robot Damashiii Lancelot Albion. Granted, I could get the Lancelot elsewhere, but it's already paid for, just waiting for release.

Now that I'm thinking on it, I'm sorta in the mind of 'to hell with it,' Mirage can just go naked and I can get the Lancelot elsewhere....

Another box from HLJ!

Not quite Macross or even a toy, but giant robots!

after a year of waiting after the campaign ended followed by several months of shopping drama, my copy finally arrived last week.

This website is a terrible influence for my wallet.

Now to hope for a VF-31F reissue (not willing to pay $300USD for one), along with the eventual VF-31E.
