Loop Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Unfortunately, I think what I want won't be available anymore.......or hasn't been available for a while now.........the CF SV-51 alpha. Chris I had the hardest time 2 years ago finding a CF SV-51 alpha. I got a good deal too when I found it fortunately, even though it was gone everywhere.

Dobber Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) Where did you end up getting yours? Ebay, a seller here or something? Best price i can find, atm, is about $265 shipped. Chris Edited July 3, 2012 by Dobber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Phew, my order finally cleared customs. HLJ replied to my email asking about it as well, and it appears they were able to clear it up easily enough. Score one more for their customer service.

mechaninac Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Glad to read everything has been resolved satisfactorily, if a bit delayed; it's heartening to know that HLJ's customer support is on the ball. I just got a shipping payment request from HLJ myself, paid it, and now the waiting for the shipping notification email begins... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dobber Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 STILL WAITING for my shipping notification from HLJ! Paid for the shipping 3 days ago. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stark1975 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 My order with the VF-17S and another 1A made it through last Friday without a hitch, but I did get a call from FedEx asking about the two freebies that didn't have a declaration of price on them. We'll have to feedback to HLJ that the next time they do freebies like that they need to report something so people don't get hassled at the least or have their packages stopped at customs at the worst.

Good idea. As I have not received a shipping notfication from HLJ yet, I went ahead and emailed them requesting that the include a nominal declared value for any free promo item included in the shipping box they send via FedEx. Now to see if they follow through or not, or if it makes any difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasabi-san Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Just got two of the Angelbird kits yesterday, and a small, complimentary brown bag of some sort of rice puff snacks. We can't translate what it is, but the logo says BEFCO, and it smells like soy sauce. Happy anniversary! Anyone else get something similar?

Valkyrie Magnus Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 I was thinking of asking the question but since hlj does not have it in stock any ideas where I can get this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kicker773 Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 VF11B restocked. Whoever told me they were on sale is the Devil. I literally was on the edge but since it was on sale.. i pulled the trigger. Now I can recreate my New Edwards base in 1/60 scale. DAMN YOU!!!

Chronocidal Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Wait, the sale is still going? What items are still discounted? I might be tempted to grab another VF-11, just to make my shipment with the DYRL Cannon Fodder VF-1A a bit more cost effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kicker773 Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 They just filled the backorders, well atleast with mine and my squads are coming home soon.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Ahh, got it then, that makes sense. I checked all the Yamato items and everything was pretty much back up to normal prices, though a lot of items seem to be permanently marked at 10% off. The GNU figures are still 80% off though, which really is a nice price for those. I picked up a YF-19/YF-21 pair, and while I'm a little disappointed they don't have thigh swivels, and like to pop apart easily, they look pretty awesome guarding my entertainment system. I think I would have felt really ripped off at full price, but $8 a pop feels just right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ps99042 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 So when I got today's email advertising their latest sale, I figured it'd be an easy pass since I already have the Yamato items they usually put on sale. Then I saw the VF-1J GN-U for about $10 before shipping...Is it worth getting? I already have the 19's, 21, and 11's including the variants but no 1 yet.

Valkyrie Magnus Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I don't have the vf-11b or the dyrl Hikaru and Kakizaki vf-1a 1/60 but with that sale I could not refuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froy Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 (edited) Crap! I surrender to temptation. Getting Max %55 off and Kakizaki 50% off.

Kurisama Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I caved and got a TV Max. Almost got a DYRL Hikaru 1A, but it's a version 1 hip and it'll be on sale again. The VF-11 is tempting, but does one really need a forth 'B? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astralith Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Yeah I had to finally pick up Gamlins vf-22 and the sound booster armor. I'm considering it too. Gamlin is the character I most identify with throughout all the saga but I only dig the 22 in fighter mode and the 17 Gamlin's head looks stupid in my opinion. I just got the Alto renewal this week (it got me pregnant on the first date... It's that hot). Tel us if the 22 is worth it. It's not that pricey.
