DX Chogokin YF-29 (Alto) Durandal Valkyrie - Reissue

[VF-Zer0S]

So tonight is the night?

You can never have enough durandals

[neoexcaliber]

No demand for this item? Pre-orders open in an hour.

[Falcon]

Well, Amiami sold out as usual

Couldn't get one.

[Saburo]

Up at HLJ

GO!

[F360]

They have 1 more if you want one.

[Saburo]

I am surprised for a 2X reissue this one is still selling out fast.

Then again, I am not surprised too.

HLJ is actually cheaper than Amiami now.

I got myself Phenex from CDJapan, Kabuto + bike and Omegamon from Amiami.

Might get an extra YF-29 if HLJ gets it back up later.

[Lolicon]

Wow there's still preorder madness on a 4 year old toy that's been reissued twice.

[Loop]

Crazy, sat this one out and the activity here seemed low tonight. Surprised it sold out so fast lol.

[F360]

maybe it's just a small batch, so it' sold out quicker.

Madness...?

This is Macross!!

[neoexcaliber]

I'm reminded of the madness we had to endure back in 2013.

[Sandman]

Ah frak. I got my days mixed up. Missed it.

[Sandman]

Got it at Nippon Yasan. No preorder discount though. Can't believe i went through this for a valk i already own.

[abbadon]

Totally forgot about this. Oh well.

[Sandman]

It's still available at N-Y.

Up at NY. Retail price though.

[Sandman]

gone...

Just realized that they have the release date on the same day as the roy hi-metal.

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

pic on NY reminds me of someone who got banned last year. lol

[Scyla]

Bandai this madness has to stop with Delta. If a preorders sell out that fast for the YF-29 something is very wrong.

Of course I missed it.

[derex3592]

One has to wonder if they notice these things and even care. I'm SO not gonna do their pre-order BS for Delta, They need to get a better plan.

[auberondreaming]

And this is why when users here start talking about how they wish bandai would do everything because they are so much cheaper I die a little inside. You are saying you hope you never get a piece at retail, or have to stay up for the first seconds of every release like it was a black friday deal. Bandai doesn't release enough stock. If Arcadia bows out of the Macross game we are all going to be out of luck.

[hal9000]

Well missed this one entirely, I bet there was about 10 total for the reissue.

[arbit]

I'm not too worried. These DX reissues as well as the Hi-Metal R have been fairly easy to find after release dates.

You can already get the YF-29 on Ebay for USD 160.

[Kyp Durron]

Was searching for the original topic, but looks like it was locked.

Re-issue seems to be in conjunction with Sheryl's birthday

ZZZzzzzz........ Huh? What? Oh, that's nice....ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz................

People that wish Arcadia to die off are most likely rabid fanboys. It just doesn't make any sense. If you hate a company don't support them with your dollar.

Missed it. But it's not a biggie.

The one on eBay which they're selling for $159.99 is also a 'presale'. And from what he claims he has 2. Just in case anyone wants one.

was thinking about it...now it's gone.....why does it have to be a scramble every time??

https://www.nippon-yasan.com/14805-macross-f-dx-chogokin-yf-29-durandal-valkyrie-saotome-alto-custom-reissue.html

Up @ NY, marked up of about 4000 yen to 19800 yen

[Sandman]

It was 17100 at first. So mark up is only 2700 yen. But yeah still sucks.

If it makes you feel better, it's still cheaper than the previous times it was released, when the yen was sky high.

74 yen to the dollar ugh

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

[VF-Zer0S]

Thanks for the heads up sir. But I think I'm going to pass this one. I know I'm into the white/tan, red and black scheme, but this one is kinda 'too red' for me. If only they will make a 30th Anniv version but instead of Roy's yellow, it will be Hikaru's red. That one I will buy for sure.

makes you think why there is no Hikaru version of this valk.

[no3Ljm]

True that.
