  1. Guess i threw away money on the dx vf-1 super parts. I always knew they were they were a not trustworthy store, not to mention shitty customer service despite a certain member here constantly sticking up for them. When they took payments for the vf-od pf when they knew the release was pushed back for another few months is when i 100% certain they were scammers.  I guess we're all fraked. No recourse to get our money now.

    I got some pics. When this break happened I thought the tail wing broke off. When taking these pics I though maybe it can just be pushed in. I tried doing that but the piece I’m pushing the tail wing into moves. If theee was a way to open up that arm  it might be easier. I dunno what do you guess think?

    Well as luck would have it, 2 minutes after posting i managed to snap the tailfin back into place. I'm so relieved. I hadn't even transformed it yet.

  4. Anyone notice any Canadian Stores that have it for preorder. I'm hoping to save money. These sv-51 releases rape me on shipping and customs fees. I recently nabbed an Ivanov for 25000 yen. Then with shipping it got bumped up 37000 yen and $100 of customs fees. If some Canadian sites get this bird i will be saving some money.

  5. So i recently moved. So i had to pack up all my toys. I was packing my sentinel eta legioss. I forgot to lower that tail fins so when i put the plastic cover over top, the tail fin snapped off. I figured it would just snap back in but nope it's an actual break. Anyone know how i can repair this or if it is possible to repair?

    Holy cow. If these guys get releases consistently, this is going to save me so much money. No shipping and duty fees. Thats aprox $150-200 savings per dx valk.

    I decided to order another to test out this shop. I ended up getting charged tax bring up the price to  319. Sucks but still cheaper than the duty and shipping costs from Japan.

  8. I think we should all be cautious about these "easy preorders". Bandai can still pull that "we're cutting allotments" bs they have been known to do, even after preorders are placed. In fact BBTS got screwed with their last macross frontier dx preorder they had. They weren't able to fulfill the renewal Vf-25s dx 10 years ago because of Bandai cutting the allotments. I know this is a little different situation but i wouldn't put it past them.
