anime52k8 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 NO!!!! missed Sheryl again... now I'm going to be checking overdrive every 5 minutes until it comes back (if it comes back.... ) at least I got klan. by the way, does anyone know if/how you can cancel an order for an in stock item from HLJ? I just put in the order today so it's not even in their system yet... crap I'm going to be so broke... (if anyone's willing to part with a Sheryl figure, I'd gladly pay you for it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 soon as it shows up and hasn't progressed to the payment stage you can cancel it using the account options. BUT, if it has gone into payment pending, you need to ask them to cancel it, and give reason why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anime52k8 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I'll just have to keep an eye out for when it pops up then. (macross take precedence over queen's blade) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 (edited) For me it's not so simple... new decent Sonsaku Hakufu cast off fig equally rates as good as a Valk. Not that i had to choose between a valk and big boobed fig at the same time, but still it's - Now if it was a cast off fig SHERYL NOME, a valk comes in second place. Wonder when we'll get one...

ntsan Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 (edited) Consider the price they charged on the figure.. I am sure they would order another container when klan and ranka are full again (64X12=768 US$, same price as the 100 boxes set. I think they got good margins when they sell the rest of the set, but those are probably shelf warmer) Edited December 2, 2008 by ntsan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharky Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 It seems you can get an entire box set of 100 mixed items of all the premiums in various quantities. All for only $789.99. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Cool thing with that is you can open up your own macross related noodle shop with a heap of those bowls....

edwin3060 Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Maybe they are secretly pre-emplacing all these bowls for when Nyan Nyan chinese fast food restaurants open all over the world! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crasis Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 (edited) I was SO angry yesterday when I realized I had missed out on the Sheryl, Ranka and (especially) Klan Klan figs. I then proceeded to try to convince myself that it was a GOOD thing, since I didn't drop the nearly $300 (with shipping) on these (plus OverDrive makes you pay upfront, which is never easy this time of year). After fuming for awhile, I relaxed into a state of "it wasn't meant to be"...until I checked OverDrive on a whim this morning. Okay, so I still didn't spend the $300...but I did end up getting Macro Klan (bless you guys for taking more preorders!). I figured she'll look TOO good next to the DX VF-25G to pass up. So I dropped my $88, but am still holding strong in regards to the other two. I figure they'll get TONS of figures in the next couple of years, especially with the movie coming out (and their main part of the triangle status). Besides, it would almost be weird to have both girls without Alto to stand in the middle. Right? Right? ...I really want those figs...

UN Spacy Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Does anyone own a Banpresto PVC? Does their quality compare to company such as Alter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miriya Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Does anyone own a Banpresto PVC? Does their quality compare to company such as Alter? Good question. I was wondering the same. Like max factory, good sile company, even yamato? Banpresto is famous for gashapon and I have a bunch of that stuff but it is a different type of product so not even comparable. I hope that it is up to par with good smile, alter, etc. because the price is in the same level as theirs for the same sized figure. If the quality bites then I will be bummed. However from the pics that are available on overdrive the sculpt looks pretty darned good. Hopefully it will have a refined finish up close and good even painting.

sharky Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I'm just worried that I'm shelling out $64.99 plus EMS shipping for something that you can get for around $8.50US in Japan. So, I am curious as to the quality if the normal price is 800yen. I suppose you are not guaranteed your prefered prize, but I wonder if I wouldn't be able to a score a Klan in 7 tries. If macro Klan didn't have such large breasts I might reconsider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That exactly what i told myself when Klan was already sold out and i just got in with Sheryl (i think i might have stole the last one the first order run of sheryls') and i'm like no, wasn't meant to be 2nd time round. lol Sheryl is enough.

PVC figure is going for $210 the cheapest I've seen it so far is $160 (these cost reflect the falling $ to yen). The packaging is basic and cheap but the figure looks top notch sculpt and paint. I have not been able to get my hands on one so I can't give you an idea of the quality of plastic. So Over-Drive's price is pretty cheap if you ask me.

sharky Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 It seems CDjapan is also selling a set. I guess we are lucky Overdrive is breaking it up and selling individually. Otherwise we would probably have to set something up where we get a group together to buy a set. http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/goods/goods_detai...EY=NEOGDS-3301# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ntsan Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 (edited) The mold looks nice, is it just me or the boobs on macro klan is bigger than the drawing? And is it released on March also? (March looks like very busy release for Macross..) Here is the review of Banpresto Premium C.C. http://www.foobarbaz.jp/figure/review2008/...to_1bankuji_cc/ I wonder does M.F characters have removable outfit..

DarkReaper Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I never thought I would say this, but Klans boobs need to sag a bit more than the current mold. Torpedo boobs ahoy. Theres no curve at all, there seems to be a 90° angle and then straight the rest of the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anime52k8 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Gimmick - swappable zero G boobs! swappable chest parts would definitely make it worth the 88 bucks I had to put down for her... (ugh, I feel faint just thinking about how much these cost) looking at the new pics Klan definitely looks good, but I wish I could have scored a sheryl, she looks amazing... 1 out of 2 isn't bad though, right?
