yman1437 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 You are right.....I was looking around chest /shoulder area. The lighting could've been better? Dull blue? Those scans have a tint to them. The Valk is a dark Charcoal Grey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 You are right.....I was looking around chest /shoulder area. The lighting could've been better? There are blue Fold Crystals that will end up in the chest area in battroid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VF-Zer0S Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I'd rather pay the extra 20$ on NY for better shipping since I am getting it with isamu super parts. Good though for anyone who has missed out on initial pre orders. Looks awesome and can't wait for it to come out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
close313 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I want... but they need an upfront payment which I don't have cause of YF-19. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scream Man Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Do u have to pay the preorder straight away at CDJapan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guyffon Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 From my understanding, yes you do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
close313 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Or you can use their postal money order...they'll wait for 42 days for it to arrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandman Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Nice timing. I would buy this and cancel my preorder with nippon-yassen but i have 2 yf-19s i'm waiting to pay for. The funds are tied up for those. Sadly i will have to pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XFJ-01A Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Argh. what a day to be low on reserves. Thats not a bad price for a predorder, but factoring shipping it'll bring the total charge up to 220 on CDJapan.I'm hoping those units hold out at least until I get paid next week.

Matt Random Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Looks like they CDJapan is making up the difference in shipping. I'm seeing almost $60 for EMS vs $35 for NY EMS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandman Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Seriously $60 shipping? CDJapan entering the scalping game. I don't feel bad now passing this up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XFJ-01A Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Yeah. I was running through the shipping charges in my head. I've recieved bigger boxes than Chogkins from AmiAmi and EMS was no more than $40, so theyre definitely pulling some strings there. But you gotta make money somehow....

HG Blows Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Just ordered at CDjapan. Man that shipping is killer, I just opted for the registered sal. Not liking the paying up front either. 19 left as of 3:30 PST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mechaninac Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 (edited) Does CDJapan's Paypal option give you the choice to select Bill_Me_Later on Paypal's site? If so, given that the total comes to more than 100 USD, you'd get 6 months, with no interest, to pay for the purchase. I know N-Y has that option available as I've done this with my YF-29 Isamu.

Guest davidwhangchoi Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 (edited) Backup @ CDjapan Only 30 more copies available. http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEOGDS-105000 this just confirms it will be widely avail as well as the prophecy. (plus w/ the 25F being re- released, we'll have plenty to go around) i cancelled my extra copy on hlj, and try to keep an extra yf-19 instead. actually i'm going to hold onto it for a bit since i have some time to decide.

Tking22 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 So I pre-ordered one of these at NY, I was wondering if I can pay for my pre-order with Paypal, I'm reading on their site and it just says you can pay for your pre-order in different currencies, but it doesn't comment on method. On topic, I may sell my anniversary version after I receive this guy, I like this paint job more than any of the other ones Bandai has put out, and I'm not much for owning more than one of the same mold.

mechaninac Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Yes, you can pay via PayPal, and through that you can even opt for Bill_Me_Later. You can pay at any time between when the order is placed and the invoice is issued, usually a week or two before the item is stocked, if you select 'Pay Later' during the checkout process for preorders.

yman1437 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 You certainly can pay with Paypal. When you order you can decide if you want them to charge you by usd or yen....by usd, u pay what they charge you, by yen u pay what Paypal converts from yen to usd So I pre-ordered one of these at NY, I was wondering if I can pay for my pre-order with Paypal, I'm reading on their site and it just says you can pay for your pre-order in different currencies, but it doesn't comment on method.

sreichma Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 For me, i love the blue because it makes it look like the macross series and like a toy. I know I'm in the minority as most prefer them to look realistic, but I like having them appear like they came right out of the dvd of Frontier.

Chronocidal Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) I hope it's moulded in the correct color to avoid paint chips. This one actually has a fairly good chance of this, since it's dark gray to begin with. The Alto and 30th were serious messes, with either the entire underside being painted gray, or the entire body being molded in gray, and the entire upper surface painted whatever else. It's kind of a combination of terrible parts breakdown, and ridiculous paint schemes. Edited April 14, 2014 by Chronocidal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anime52k8 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 You can always open the canopy. but then the cockpit will get all dusty, and that'll be so hard to clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
