mechaninac Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Requested shipping from my PW at HLJ for the Ozuma YF-29 and a slew of other goodies, paid, and just got the shipping notification today... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sreichma Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 A few call outs on what I've noticed with my 29 Ozma: Tampo has been improved. The ejection seat marking now includes text around the outside edge with "caution" and "ejection". This was attempted on the renewal 25 and the 29 but the text ia not as clear and defined as on the Ozma 29. There is also now a new tampo mark for the "Rescue" door with arrow behind and below the nose similar to the VF-1. There is also a second ejection seat warning behind the cockpit with text.

Matt Random Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 EMS is going so slowly. Went to customs in LA instead of SFO. SFO customs usually takes a day at most. LA took 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzmaLee74 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I read in another forum that NY is prioritizing single item orders first and those with multiples (2 and over) after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruinsinla Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 NY shipped out my 2 Ozma's yesterday. SAL shipping. Hopefully everyone else's will ship out soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzmaLee74 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 So throw more money at NY......get shafted? Well I guess it makes sense as a seller. 1 valk = 1 order number that gets deleted off the pending orders list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valk-1S Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I read in another forum that NY is prioritizing single item orders first and those with multiples (2 and over) after that. Not surprised. Mine is more than 1 and my YF-29 Isamu parts is also more than 1. I am yet to get any shipping notice from them. They need to go to a first paid first shipped system.

yman1437 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 12 days and counting from cdj by SAL...starting to worry... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valk-1S Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 12 days and counting from cdj by SAL...starting to worry... 12 days is nothing to worry about. If it has been about a month, then I would start to worry. SAL can take from 1-4 weeks and sometimes even longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyDude Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 SAL takes 2 weeks to 2 months per the english Japan post site, stuck/held in customs adds to that. Only Japan post has control, not the shop you bought it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hey-Pi-Ron Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Taking a notification message from NY: "We are processing your order." It's my first time using NY. What does it mean, can anybody explain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I think it means, "We're aware that you made an order.. we're fumbling blindly in the dark for a pen to sign it so we can send it off to the post, so give us a few days." It's not that bad, they just seem to have a history (in my experience) of the "processing" stage taking anywhere from a day to a week.

typhoon Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Great! Just received my shipping notification on my two Ozma's. I must say I was getting a touch worried, especially after seeing the last batch of posts. Certainly not the best experience I have had, but they (NY) came though in the end!

Just to be safe, I think you should try to hunt one. Not sure if the demand for this will cool down any time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scyla Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 So I received mine from NY today. It has some stress marks around the main hinges for the wings (the ones to angle the wings for the backpack inwards). The hinges are very stiff so maybe that is the reason why. They are very small but I'm worried that they get bigger. Has anyone success with removing stress marks with a hair dryer on such a Bandai Frontier Valkyrie? Other than that this is a gorgeous plane. The cockpit canopy is a bit dark or the main color of the Valkyrie is not dark enough for the canopy. Not sure.... The yellow trim is somewhere a bit light so it has a green tint but qc-wise it is much better than my YF-29 30th Anniversary and it has hard plastic head lasers too! Yay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yay I received mine today and I have the same issue.... Opened the box and that's the first thing I saw, the stress marks. I am asking the same question as Scyla, any suggestions to remove or reduce the stress marks via the hair dryer method? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
