Not necessarily, if they don't work on weekends then they didn't even bother with their shipments until Monday morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renato Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Today (Monday) is a holiday in Japan, for those wondering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoexcaliber Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 (edited) Its up at n y I wouldn't buy it from NY if I were you. These were even easier to get than the VF-19 so expect it to be up at major retailers this week. NY prices are not justified. Not necessarily, if they don't work on weekends then they didn't even bother with their shipments until Monday morning. That's why I said it would take them a few days to source the items. Shipping is another matter. Edited July 20, 2015 by neoexcaliber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Today (Monday) is a holiday in Japan, for those wondering. Oh! Ok Good to know. Although some places must still be working as NY sent me an email about my order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spanner Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 You'll probably see yours before i see mine. On average it seems to take that day or two longer to get down here than it does to the USA. And id say generally speaking that more merch is sold to the USA than to most other countries so the freight companies would prioritize the larger volumes to move first. I am rather excited to receiving it though! Then again im always excited to recieve anything Macross! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F360 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Yeah I ended up doing the HLJ June pre-order window. I kept having problems with my CC processor on CDJ for some odd reason. Every time I tried to make a transaction go through the security would deny the transaction then lock the card. I went around and around with the CC customer service and fraud dept and spent like 5+ hours on it. I ended up giving up and cancelled that order as I knew it would most likely happen again and went with the HLJ one. It could be your credit card company too , I use capital one credit card for my international orders and they all seem to pass smoothly .

Saburo Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 The 29B look great, but what really caught my eye was the pilot figure. Is it different than all the 29 releases? I am too lazy to check my 29s right now. Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duymon Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 totally new figure that's game accurate. Nice touch. I'm really stoked about the two I got now :0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abbadon Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 That 29B photo rocks! Colors look really nice! I remember it being darker in the game, but that could be my TV settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derex3592 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Seriously Bandai, give us optional hard plastic head lasers instead of these POS soft plastic. Just look at the ones in those second round of pics. Not cool. Looks like I'm eventually going to have to buy a set or two of Kurisama's on Shapeways and attempt to paint match if I get hosed.

ArchieNov Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Seriously Bandai, give us optional hard plastic head lasers instead of these POS soft plastic. Just look at the ones in those second round of pics. Not cool. Agreed. This was my main gripe with this head mold. Since I don't have any painting skill, Shapeways is not an option for me. I know people have used the hairdryer trick to get it straightened out. I tried it myself but I must be doing something wrong because it eventually bends back again after a day or so.

spanner Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I've given up trying to straighten the Bandai soft head antennas.. they always just bend back to their original position. Yes optional hard plastic replacements would have been a grand idea! But didn't some other DX Valks actually come with that? Or am I thinking of something else? I can't remember now..

Chronocidal Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 The VF-25G did if I recall, as well as Ozma's, and maybe Isamu's YF-29. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
