crasis Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 What a relief! Graham, you just made my week!!! Now I'm very happy that OverDrive is processing my order today! Max TV 1A, Max 1S and VF-11B...all in one box. My front porch may explode from the sheer awesome contained within. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdman Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Huge thanks, Graham! Mine's on the way from HLJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dobber Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I don't know either, but HLJ shipped mine yesterday via EMS. I should get it by Monday at the latest. I paid for mine wiht them 2 days ago, and still haven't gotten the shipping notice yet! That's the one thing about HLJ I don't like...sometimes they take a while to ship after you pay. Hopefully it won't be delayed due to Golden week. Dang, I was hoping the panic would continue for a while longer because I had almost bottled enough to power my home for a whole year. I could just tap into the swine flu panic but that kind of terror-sweat is a little too high-test. Good for dissolving glue, but too volitile to power every day appliances. LOL! We should get you a Job with Sully and Mike at Monsters Inc. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

transfan52 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 That's good to hear. I'll probably pick one up later this year... Too many releases this year and I only have so much to spend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonc Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Graham or Alex, can you tell us if the foam is needed in the cockpit as cushion, or is it part of the packing? Now that the bottom portion of the shield is working, I'm wondering if those foam pieces need to be put back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanedaestes Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Graham said no, he did it without the foam there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangard Ace Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 What in the hell is Golden Week? I just ordered a boatload of shiggity from Over Drive. Maybe that explains why my order status is still pending... Wiki is your friend. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Week_(Japan) Oh and OD is processing my toy as well. MacPlus triumvirate almost complete! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacrossMan Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Wiki is your friend. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Week_(Japan) Oh and OD is processing my toy as well. MacPlus triumvirate almost complete! Thanks for the info Dangard Ace. I Googled Golden Week this morning before I left work after posting the question. I'll check my account with OD later this evening. Hopefully it will finish processing. Just good to know that it appears they have not shut down for the week long holiday.

Sluff Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I got my tracking info from HLJ and it shows it has left Tokyo at 0420 AM. Any one guess when it would arrive in Texas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cent Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 HA! I knew it! my good faith tides me over! Props to everyone else who said this was too dumb to be like Yamato =P Anyway, no QC issues, no foam, sturdy heatshield locking, firm joints, first release.................. Oh my God, they did it! Time to order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonc Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Graham said no, he did it without the foam there. That I got, but is that foam necessary for some other purpose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmegaD3k Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Great, great news! Are there any pegs, or indications that may suggest armored packs for the VF-11, in the future? Seeing how Yamato has the M7 license... *crosses fingers for armored VF-11* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 VERY glad to hear that the detent is there and that the shield works properly. The tailfins don't look so bad. I'd like to see more pics with those fins out, in super mode, canon be damned, I like the VF-11B with FAST packs on AND tailfins out. If the VFX-2 scheme is planned, and the skull emblems/designs can fit well on the fins, I may consider picking it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Was the VFX-2 version in that BAD ASS color scheme ever shown with FAST packs? I'm trying to determine how much a VF-11B would cost without those things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sluff Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Hey Dobber they processed my payment on Tuesday. But I had a large order placed, not just the VF-11, I also had my Max's, that Valkyries book, the VF-25 Alto and some stands and armor packs so most of those were waiting to ship maybe thats why mine was processed so quick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firmpulse Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I got my tracking info from HLJ and it shows it has left Tokyo at 0420 AM. Any one guess when it would arrive in Texas? after items ship from hlj i receive them within two days (relative because tokyo central time is more that twelve hours ahead of the central u.s. time zone. time travel is awesome.). my vf-11b shipped april 30th on the japanese calender. i will probably have it by saturday. once your package reaches the inward office of exchange in jfk you're golden. hope that helps.

Sluff Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Wow they go all the way to JFK? I live on the end of a runway at DFW and I see the JAL Cargo freighter 747s all the time, I was hoping it would be on one of them that would rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanedaestes Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 That I got, but is that foam necessary for some other purpose? Believe it is just for transport to keep it secure. Seems like it is unnecessary really with actual use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it will ship before the weekend. Thanks though. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anime52k8 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Was the VFX-2 version in that BAD ASS color scheme ever shown with FAST packs? I'm trying to determine how much a VF-11B would cost without those things. well the VF-22 which lacks the stand and Fast packs of the YF-21 is 3,000 yen less and it has some new tooling. a VFX-2 11 would probebly be about the same, I'd seriously consider getting one, the VFX2 scheme is so much better looking and I don't like the fast packs anyways. (course there's a LOT of Yamato coming out that might be more worth it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
