Bandai DX YF-30 Chronos

[close313]

FINALLY Amiami has taken my money

[skullmilitia]

Yep just paid for mine from AA. EMS see you soon!

Pretty awesome, with a good exchange rate it was 201$ shipped EMS.

Can't complain!

[OzmaLee74]

Actually my NY order tracking says it was already picked up. Most likely won't see it til Monday though.

[skullmilitia]

It's kind of a dick move that AA sent out the payment requests at the end of the day, of the end if the week. Lol

[Graham]

Doubt I'll transform mine more than once. This is one bird that's gonna stay in fighter mode.

[Shukenzero]

Just picked mine up at a local store for ¥19750, HKD 1580. Also, minutes later, AmiAmi sent payment request. My hunt is over

Store is only allowing 1 per customer.

Was that you? Wan Chai shop?

I just picked up mine too in Anime.

[Sildani]

I am jealous that HK doesn't overprice imported Bandai DX Valks there. Over here it's crazy (+50% to + 80%)!

Oh HK does. Just happens that we got a relatively close to RRP valk this time. Usually they charge over depending on popularity, and this is on the first day.

[KH355hamdi]

No shipping yet from NY. My guess FedEx > EMS > SAL. Mine is EMS. Good thing the other pre-orders are on FedEx.

Ended up re-ordering from CDJ instead of AE because of their 1 limit per customer. So stoked to get it!

CDJ is finished btw.

Whoa did someone say matte finish? Now I want two...

[ULessa]

Oh damn matte! Tasty Valks

Batroid with out the missiles pod, looks great.

[ULessa]

So jealous that some people have it in hand already! I WANT!

<snip>

Nice. I really like that look.

[wm cheng]

So IS the plastic more matte than the recent renewals?

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

Batroid with out the missiles pod, looks great.

wow it actually does... i think it's changing my mind.

[close313]

The back of the box.. so shiny!

[chyll2]

wow, that is a lot of No-step marking. it kinda looks more matte (closer to semi-flat/semi-gloss) than the usual DX chogokin

[1/1 LowViz Lurker]

Missed the boat.. Looking forward to reviews though.

[Pedro2k6]

wow it actually does... i think it's changing my mind.

Glad that I order two. One for Fighter, one for Battroid (w/o missile pod)

[vsim]

Nice, thanks for the picts!

I saw six or seven full boxes today, each with six valks, when I walked past a shop looking for an extra set of G super parts. It was pretty sweet seeing them.

Bathing in Macross goodness? Surrounded by valk boxes is glorious. Guess that's what Kicker feels like walking around his house everyday

[Swoosh]

Some details pic

[xrentonx]

More matte is a very good thing! So any in-hand experience of the need or lack of need for the brace/clip?
