ULessa Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Still wondering if I should get this. Could also fork out an additional $30 for an alto version :X This hobby is going to be the end of me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is entirely up to you, I think both are cool, but If you want to get a hero Valk (Alto) there is a reissue of the VF-25F coming in July, you should be able to get it at retail price. Yes, Macross collecting can be hazardous to your bank account. Good luck. Edited May 26, 2014 by Saburo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saburo Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 When are the pre-orders opened? I think I saw it on a few sites but that might've been an old listing. Both the YF-25 Prophecy and the VF-25F July reissue pre-orders have already opened and have been closed. For the VF-25F most of the shops have re-opened a previous listing of the VF-25F for the July reissue. My suggestion is to keep an eye on MW and shops once they are released and you should be able to order. Dark_Ghost has posted the release date for the YF-25, I quoted it below. Release date : June 21, 2014 Can't wait! -b. Me too, my wallet isn't to looking forward to it. I'll be recovering from vacation spending when it releases.

Loop Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Luckily I pre-paid for one of the 2 units I have on pre-order. Decided it will be nice to diplay in fighter and battroid. But especially battroid because the head is so sweet on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YF-29 Durandal Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Pre-orders are still up at Plamoya. http://plamoya.com/en/dx-chogokin-yf25-prophecy-p-94580.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ff95gj Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 The Plamoya pre-order comes with a hefty shipping charge. So watch out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gun pod 78 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Yeah no kidding! They quoted me $705.00 ouch! I'll take my chances at time of release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ULessa Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 So is the shipping on Plamoya just an estimate for the time being? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ff95gj Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 They effectively mean that the preorder is closed. But if you insist and are willing to pay... fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
close313 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Not estimation, but it's like listing the item at a lower price and gouge the buyer with the "shipping" - therefore making it the same as the market price. It's rampant in ebay especially. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YF-29 Durandal Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 The Plamoya pre-order comes with a hefty shipping charge. So watch out! I just noticed the shipping prices they have for the YF-25 and I would never pay more than Japan Posts regular rates. I would in fact avoid Plamoya and their shady tactics altogether.
