Slave IV Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 7 hours ago, DYRL VF-1S said: Usually around $45 USD of you do EMS and like $27 for boat. I don’t think Mandarake has a boat option. See below for more details. 14 hours ago, Zaid said: How much was shipping on it from Mandrake? Last few Valks I got there were 4000k to ship with the cheapest option. I think they only offer EMS or DHL for Valk sized packages.
borgified Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 Manda has SAL shipping and it might take at least one/two months before you get the package. I used that method for my two 1/48 Yammie M&M valks and got it with no issues. DHL/EMS is the usual shipping method that we all use, however if you want to save and not in a rush to get your package, then SAL might work for you. Also see if SAL is trackable or you might forever loose your purchases.

505thAirborne Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 8 hours ago, no3Ljm said: Yeah. I also just found out recently regarding the vertical fin's '100'. Here's a pic from @jenius' Anymoon site. I've had my 1/48's sticker'd up for so long I forgot how "Plain Jane" they are out of the box. I like my DX Valks (Max & Hikaru 1S) but that Arcadia V.2 PF looks the best IMO.
no3Ljm Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 I'm not sure if this has already been asked. But is the nosecone removable on the DX like the YamArcadia's?

I got the missile set. I was eyeing the VF-1S too, but it's still a little too much high for me right now. If it was 25k I would probably have caved.
Matt Random Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 I listed my VF-1J in the sales section if anyone is interested.
DYRL VF-1S Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 So, Bandai needs to announce the next release and take my money.

Roy 1s and the DX YF-21 sounds reasonable, however Bandai loves to throw a curveball and maybe a long awaited HMR gets announced.
borgified Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 Who here has nabbed this for 23k (Opened, Package damaged) https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1129662585&ref=list&keyword=マクロス&lang=en That's a steal and cheaper than the one I got yesterday..
chyll2 Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 You got yours on a sealed box, so its not exactly comparable though I always have good experience with used items in Mandarake. Almost all purchased are in good condition and I always get compensation if I got yellowing/damaged/missing item (if it happened not declared in their description).

jeniusornome Posted February 6, 2020 Posted February 6, 2020 It’s a quantum Valkyrie. Until you open it and the state resolves upon direct observation, it could have the correct numbering!
