Falcon Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I'm in for just one. The battroid and gerwalk modes look really blagh but that fighter mode..... sweetness Is it just me or does the fighter mode look a bit chunky compared to the anime version?

Ignacio Ocamica Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Is it just me or does the fighter mode look a bit chunky compared to the anime version? It does look a bit on the chunky side. The 1/72 model kit is slimmer. Bandai must have gone for a chunkier design for structural rigidity.

seti88 Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 The DX fighter is generally chunkier, it could be such since it cant swap hands or landing gear to save space, like the kits. Certain angles though she does look slim, so keep looking at the promo photo to remind yourself how slim she is...sounds like real life doesnt it? hehe...

funkymonkeyjavajunky Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 This is gonna be more difficult than Hayate's VF-31. Isn't this toy more expensive? And, given that a lot of people were disappointed by the series (and alarming lack of mecha action) wouldn't there be fewer folks coughing up cash this time around? Or will it be more popular as it's an enemy mecha? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will create artificial shortage so that they can sell it at mark-up (selling the PO slot in Yahoo Japan Auction) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave IV Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I will up my prediction to 2 mins per store. Mainly because I'm hoping for it to be less infuriating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizman Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 (edited) The SV-262 is probably the best thing to come out of Delta so I'll probably be here with you guys waiting on the pre-orders (if I remember to stay up ). So who are the usual suspects? HLJ, CDJapan, AmiAmi and Nippon Yasan? Any other big stores I missed that we should keep eyes on?

no3Ljm Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 (edited) I will up my prediction to 2 mins per store. Mainly because I'm hoping for it to be less infuriating. Ha! That's still long. I will say 10sec. And that's the right amount of time when you refresh the page and see the 'Sold Out' on the Order Button. The SV-262 is probably the best thing to come out of Delta so I'll probably be here with you guys waiting on the pre-orders (if I remember to stay up ). So who are the usual suspects? HLJ, CDJapan, AmiAmi and Nippon Yasan? Any other big stores I missed that we should keep eyes on? Yeah, those are the main ones. But you're missing HobbySearch. And there's also Loopaza. Just in case you can't get hold of the Draken from the main stores. But you have to pay upfront. Product cost $218.99. Total shipped to California is $268.09. Just a heads up. But to be honest, you wouldn't see the difference if ever you ordered it from Nippon-Yasan after the markup. Atleast, there's a backup option.

Chronocidal Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 That assumes NY gets a hold of extra stock for later though. Their old cycle of restock and markup hasn't happened for a few releases now, and didn't help anyone get the VF-31, so I wouldn't count on them getting any extra until release date, if at all.

That is so true. Unless you want to wait for the release date first and hoping that NY will still carry it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving forward, since delta has ended and so will the hype, maybe the PO madness will reduce to back to the normal 5 mins instead? It's like the 5 stages of Kubler-Ross when it comes to preorders: Hope: It's going to be available for five minutes Fear: It will be gone 2 seconds after the preorder opens Terror: I have one in my cart and I'm trying to perform check out and the site isn't loading Anger: Someone who missed the preorder window randomly snags one the next day while casually browsing Acceptance: Maybe I can get one when they are finally released next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
