Sorry for being the newb on this thread, but what is the scale of that DX?

I believe the general consensus is that they are 1/60.

Put me down for one. Do you want payment in USD or JPY though?

PM'd. =)

Just a reminder to participants this is mainly a GB for US residents.

Basically everything will be bulk shipped to US, where I will redistribute them to each participant.

If you are located outside of US, this is probably going to cost you a bit less in shipping if you go with someone like Tokyo Hunter, who will ship directly from Japan.

Fortunately my gf loves to buy anime figures as well so that problem is not an issue for me. However, while she has no problems with nudes or risque she considers all Sheryl figures so far to be either bad sculpts, too trashy or just to plain ugly to sanction. Personally I'd love to see a flightsuit or uniform Sheryl in the Megahouse Excellent Model range, like armored Klan, or something from similar quality ranges from other manufacturers.

She does not approve the latest SQ Sheryl Figures?

Would you ship out to Canada or is this for domestic US only?

I can ship to Canada, but it might be cheaper to buy them directly overseas.

Just let me know how you want to ship them. =)

is tokyo hunter good?

SAVE is involved with them, so they have pretty good reps. =)

Or you can join our group buy here,

http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showforum=9

A set of Sheryl and Ranka concert figures is $28 shipped to US address per set.

A set of all four figures is $52 shipped to US address per set.

All figures from 2nd stage are brand new in original sealed boxes.

Also have figures from the original release.

The Sheryl Figures from first release have secret variants so the box have to be "carefully" opened to identify the content.

I can understand all the hidden fees, but still I don't feel like paying extra for already expensive item.

I like BBT and I use them quite often, but it's not for exclusive Bandai items like this.

Hmm... you are in Irvine.

If you want one, just join the group buy and I can meet up with you.

I work by the Spectrum. =)

Is this the successor to Macross Ace?

My hopes for a Figma-like Sheryl is probably a pipedream, so this is the next best thing. I like this Sheryl, and really, it's one of the least pervy Sheryl statues I could get. Some of the other ones, my gf would not approve. I'd get the whole, "That promotes an unhealthy body image of women. Do you want your daughters to see that and compare themselves to that? Blah blah blah, nag nag nag." Then I would go, "What kids? We ain't got no freaking kids! Now go make me a sandwich!" Okay, that last part was just a joke. I wouldn't be alive if I ever said that to her.

Tell her your Sheryl figure is keeping you faithful. =P

Lolicon: did you just pick those up at a local store? I think it's kinda funny you didn't want loliKlan, considering your handle.

Nyan Nyan Ranka and Klan were reprints. Only difference was the color of their stands.

If you watched the Pixar "Planes" trailer, the plane taking off from the carrier is sporting the VFA-103 Jolly Roger markings.

It's a stretch. I know XD

How in the heck does 4,725yen become $119.99!!! ???

Thieves!!!

There are quite a few hidden fees, such as exchange rate expenses (actual rate from US to JPY is like 3% off the actual rate), S&H charges (from pbandai, middleman and international EMS), that gets added to the over all cost.

They are probably making about $40 at that price, and that's a lot of trouble/risk/investment for only $40 profit.

If there is room, I you can sign me up for 1 Alto Super set.

Thanks,

Added. The cut off is 20, but if needed I can create another account to order more.

Is this group thing for members in a certain part of the world???

It's mainly for people in the US.

Shipping is slightly cheaper then purchasing directly from Japan because the armor parts will be bulk shipped to US, and redistributed domestically by USPS.

When are these supposed to arrive?

Official status from Bandai on the order is "in preperation".

I just read some other posts and some people suggested that Bandai would probably release renewal versions with the super pack bundled with the VF-25F?If that's the case, I'd probably hold off to get that set. Could anyone confirm this? It'd be really appreciated

It's hard to say.

Resellers haven't seen anything regarding rerelease with bundles.

Or has there been any trade show picture suggesting this combo.

Ummm, how do I pay you? You said you would pm when it was time to pay and I don't see your paypal address in the original post? I see you have someone listed as a participant that responded hours after I did. Just want to make sure I can get one.

Chris

He had my paypal info from before. Payment isn't due yet. =)

Sweet SV-51 custom btw.

sometime this month, supposedly.

I will post more info once I get them.

I would steer clear of toyslogic.

Pre-Ordered a HJ exclusive figure from them because I missed the order deadline.

After paying the full amount on the week when the figure was released in Japan, I never got the figure 6 weeks later.

Eventually I bought one from Y!J and asked toyslogic for a refund (which was the only good thing I have to say about them, since I did get the money back).

Keeping it alive!

Beach scene: this is the only fanservice that I could really complain about. Although it was nice scenery, it was an excuse to get the girls into bikini tops that were a little too tight and maybe they were drawn with some extra curves, if you know what I mean. I rolled my eyes, but smiled anyway... it was nice to look at. I laughed so hard when Ozma caught Alto with his arm around Ranka. Captain Wilder on a surfboard? Hang ten, Cap!

Don't forget Bobby in that awesome one piece. =)

Now that people have seen how awesome Ranka was in the 2nd movie, are there more inclinations on picking these up?

There is a new 1kuji set schedule for next year's release and will feature "normal" (non-SD) Sheryl in in white uniform and finally Ranka in the green magical girl outfit.

Someone go find us the picture!
