M'Kyuun Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Yep, guess I should apologize for the derailing, but that would be a better place for it. Back on topic, I'm just really looking forward to another valk that's not your typical F-14-ish layout, and really loving that Kawamori actually attempted something based on a single-engine design. Really hoping we see more of that F-104-derived one as well in the future. Ditto. I like to see new designs and transformation systems. I've actually never cared for the Saab Draken, preferring the look of the Viggen, but I can set my bias aside due to how well Kawamori was able to translate it into a valk. I'm also hoping that the VF-54 will come to fruition (that's the 104ish design, IIRC), and that it will have a different transformation, too. No such thing as too many valk designs.

Sandman Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I want to see that older sv from the show. Looks hawt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atheonyirh Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Anyone else going to put this sucker in fighter or gerwalk with that clear canopy? I am It seems less half-assed than the VF-27 clear canopy I know my plan in general is for it to go to gerwalk mode and never leave it.

Loop Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Single engine, newer transformation, integrated guns in the forearm that actually look implemented better than the VF-31's and just different is what roped me in on this one. I also really like the Gerwalk mode on this one too, I like the large gun overhanging the cockpit it seems to have a more solid mount than any of the NUNS models. I think fighter mode is probably the least appealing mode for me but mainly from the side, but I'm ok with that as the proportions look pretty balanced in the other modes and the sacrifice had to be made. I'm trying to keep my rule of 1x of each valk with Macross Delta but I dunno if I can resist.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chyll2 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 It is definitely competing for the top spot on the best Gerwalk. I passed on Keith since I am waiting on either the CF or the White version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abbadon Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Based on VF-31J Super Parts timeline, I'm guessing Lil' Drakens for this baby might be out sometime August? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The F-104 looking plane is called the Sv-154 in fiction. Still no word on if it actually is transforming or not, but it wouldn't be a bad bet since it is Macross.

Mommar Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 So, can anybody tell me just what exactly happens when you have two pre-orders with HLJ and then they randomly suspend your account? I just tried to log in to prepare for VF-31F madness and discovered I've been banned... what does this mean for my 262 pre-order???

You might've lost you preorder on the 262 along with your account. If you had two orders sitting on your account since day one of the preorder madness for the 262 hlj usually gives you a small window to cancel the extra or email them regarding the 'mistaken' extra orders. If not they ban your account. Since it's been awhile that the 262 was preordered your account may have been banned. Your best bet is to send them an email asap and good luck.  EDIT* On a good note CDjapan still actually has 15 available for PO:http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEOGDS-208937 Edited January 6, 2017 by PsYcHoDyNaMiX adding link for cdjapan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandman Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Was in bed and saw this and thought to myself lucky. Placed the order through my iPad only to find ddjapan uses that verified by visa system which requires me to have my card on hand. I said frakk it and let it go. The kids just finally went to sleep, there's no way I'm risking waking them up going downstairs in the dark to get my card in my wallet. That's twice this week cdjapan has thwarted me from getting a preorder. Grrrrrrr. Why can't they just keep my cc on file so I don't need to have it on me at all times (rhetorical question).

brouken Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Sorry to hear about that Sandman. Have you ever considered creating a paypal account? I find it much easier to buy stuff online using paypal since I don't have to have my card on hand. It saved me a few steps for checking out my VF-31 Messer pre-order from HLJ, which probably also saved me from being cartjacked. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti88 Posted January 10, 2017 Author Share Posted January 10, 2017 There is an option in cdjapan where you can store your cc info, so you dont need to re-type when ordering. However any verification steps in the process of ordering may vary bank/country wise.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah my cc info is stored on cdjapan but lately (like in the last 2 or 3 months), cdjapan has added this extra step (verified by visa) which asks for the card info again. It's not a big deal if you have a good memory and can remember your cvs code, card number and expiry date. I unfortunately do not have that great of an memory plus my cc info changes a lot do it's pointless to try and remember any of the info.

Hmm thats strange , when they do the verified by visa , they only asked me once .  I did not have to type in anything on the other orders.  Maybe re-enter your creditcard in your account.  Then check your browsers,.  I used crome and safari on the iphone without issues .
