Nothing special on the first release though. It's just a Hikaru Valk and I went outside my Red, Black, White/Tan only Valks just to complete his. And I was hoping for a 30th Anniversary version but the first release was the only available MIB at that time when I went and bid for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But sad to say even if I paid Nippon-Yasan for that extra requested Y800 additional shipping cost, I didn't get enough protection. As far as I recall, AmiAmi is still the best when it comes to packing boxes. Surprisingly the 2 I got from NY that were shipped through SAL came bubble wrapped in separate boxes and in perfect condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave IV Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Haven't had time to take many pics since the holidays but I got a couple quick phone shots of my Transformer figure of the year (GigaPower Slag for 2016): Got tons of other loot and hopefully get some pictures up soon. Also scored DX VF-1F and HMR Spartan last night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it was bubble wrapped. But it's the kind of 'small' blue bubble wrap instead of the 'big' ones. And it's just in one layer, one sheet wrap. There's not enough clearance from the box. So basically, once the box got dented or wasn't handled properly, the package box inside will get affected by it. The reason why I was upset is that I've seen NY packed packages before and it was great even for small items. To think that I already bought 3-4 DX Valks from them already and every one of them was packed nicely. It just so happened that this time I was asked to extra Y800 from the initial shipping cost upon ordering which is already high compared when I bought the VF-19 Advance which IMHO the box was heavier than the VF-31J and they still didn't packed it carefully. 2 hours ago, Slave IV said: Haven't had time to take many pics since the holidays but I got a couple quick phone shots of my Transformer figure of the year (GigaPower Slag for 2016): Got tons of other loot and hopefully get some pictures up soon.

I had a problem with NY packing a while ago but it was nothing too serious...just a concern of what could have happened like you say. No issues since that one time though...I'm happy with them as one of my top two (HLJ is the other) goto shops these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
