iguanaman8989 Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) My super parts came in today, one of the little grey pieces on the side of the sliding thigh armor popped right off when I moved the clip. Easy fix, but annoyed that it needs done. Edited May 31, 2017 by iguanaman8989 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iguanaman8989 Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Other than that piece, I'm really enjoying the effect the armor has on fighter mode in particular. The extra bulk makes it look much more powerful, I'm also leaving the turret deployed, since aerodynamics don't matter in space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The supers look great on the F, and as you said they look amazing on the J! Can't wait to get the supers for the F. All good! When you take photos as good as yours, there are a lot of compliments to go through and impossible to respond to them all. It's going to be nice to have a whole rainbow of Valks and Super Parts to do all kinds of combinations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Las Vegas Dad Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Payed the extra shipping charge on the 19th and had to fill out a ticket at NY to see what was going on. They shipped it yesterday finally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Good God almighty, UPS FINALLY is trying to deliver my super parts today. Fun fact, not only did NY fill out the paperwork wrong for who pays shipping but they also marked that I cannot have the package redirected to another access point so the package won't be left at my house because nobody will be home to sign for it. And there's no way I have time to make it to the main facility to pick it up until a week from tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

valhary Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 late to the party Already received my super parts and I like it! gives a little more heavy look but I cannot avoid has the feeling that should was due included with the valk release because feels a little unnecessary honestly prefer the naked appearance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacemanoeuvres Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Looks great. Can't wait to get my hands on one! In a perfect world I could buy 7 of these. 3 for all modes naked, 3 for all modes with super parts and 1 to keep MISB hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duymon Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 (edited) I dunno why, but part of me thinks the super release is a wasted opportunity to have included the Speaker Pod and reaction weapon arm shields...

It definitely would have lowered the sticker shock Yeah they definitely should have included those. Are we suppose to buy another add on pack? Or will they not even release it? This is as dumb as the v1 tornado parts (or set that includes the valk) not coming with those powered up weapons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mommar Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Cool, the delivery guy screwed up and dropped my package off at the UPS Store near my Mom's place even though he wasn't supposed to.

Duymon Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I finally got my two sets from Anime Export via SAL. Still feel like it's aoverpriced considering I got vf-25 armored parts at retail and those only cost 800 yen more when they were released, but still 1000x better value than the YF-29 parts. I think I'm only going to buy 1 set of supers for each valk from this point on. Will have 2 of each VF-31, one supered and one naked. Rarely ever see the valks in super parts anyways in the show, let alone in other modes other than Scissors fighter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double Spy Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Whats teh deal with NY? THis is the second time I've ordered where they have in stock items and its been like 4 days and nothing has shipped. The last time was last yeear during there mega sale I bought some Hi-Metal stuff and after 5 days I was wtf I shipped this as fedex so I had to email asking what up and then they shipped it. Same seems to be happening now with my VF-31 + pack order. Been about 4 days no shipping but I didnt pick Fedex. I would except it to ship within like a day or 2 at most.

The deal with NY is they usually have the lowest prices for preorders so I guess that means there is some give elsewhere in their service. For those of us who don't care how fast a toy gets to us because we all end up with the same toy, shopping at NY means we save a lot of money. Considering the thousands of dollars I spend per month, that's a huge amount of savings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor service, high shipping, no customer service whatsoever. If NY was really as good as some people believe, there wouldn't be a need for the constant shilling. Their quality would speak for itself.

I tolerate NY because they have the cheapest preorders and I've been lucky enough to get all three VF-31 1st window PO's. I don't care about service or speed when I get a VF-31 shipped for less than $175 USD For anything exclusive or aftermarket I use Madarake, Jungle or Anime-export instead. Anywho, let's get back to talking about VF-31's. VF-31's rock. I can't wait to see how they manage Chuck's folding radar dish.

There's a photo a few pages back that shows the dish taking up the "drone charger" space in the caboose when folded away. I'd guess that the dish is folding, then swinging down on the arm and flipping over. Not sure how they're dealing with the gunpod when the dish is out though, don't recall seeing a photo.

Sildani Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 The gunpod will probably need a separate adapter, kinda like the VF-27's and YF-29's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
