borgified Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Another request if I may (besides the bash with Arad's Silpheed Armour on Chuck's 31e) and if anyone as free time. Pic of all four randome valks (fully deployed) together when Chuck's get released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no3Ljm Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Whew. I'm just glad I already paid for my DX VF-31E at CDJ during at the time of PO. That's one less evening of crying over my wallet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I hope the release is pushed back. That’s the absolute worst day to release this for me this month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borgified Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 The 14th is a Sunday @Saviant. Bandai's usual release date is Friday morning before the weekend (unless there's a date change). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F360 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 The release date on the tamashii site shows 7/20 , so that’s what you should go by . Since it’s a regular release, stores do get them before release date but they do not normally ship them out a week earlier . perhaps you read the email wrong or MyKombini is just making sure you will pay them on time . It’s similar to those payment notifications emails from N-Y. just be sure to pay before their deadline and you are good . Nothing to worry about.

I checked it multiple times and the email is listing it as the 14th as you can see from the screenshot, it was the reason I posted that in the first place.

Since it’s not misreading of the email , then it just mean MyKombini is making their set date early so they can made the deadline for payment earlier for those that still haven’t make payment. stores give untrue earlier release dates from time to time so they can get people that preordered to pay earlier before they ended up finding a open preorder at another store close to release date . With this being a Macross item it not the best of examples for this since they should be able to easily find replacement buyer , but it’s something that stores do. They can give whatever date that want but who would you believe , the company that is making and releasing the toy , that also happens to have official website with preorder dates and release dates? Or just 1 or the many stores that sells that item.? I wasn’t trying to correct you in anyway , just trying to let you know it’s not something to worry about, the official date is still set on the 20th .

I understand what you mean, but I was just stating what mykombini where listing as the release in the email they sent. I never believed a Sunday release date seemed right as most businesses don't work on a Sunday. Even so most suppliers do get stock a couple days before release but embargoes hold the stock until the official release date, some suppliers will break it as they don't care, well at least that is how it works in Australia.

Sanity is Optional Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Looks like my 31E has already hit outbound customs, probably show up early next week. I'm thankful my Amazon Japan seller was willing to break street date by a few days, since it'll be in transit anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
