Amiami eschewed the recent practice of PO on following day morning, and reverted to same day for this, although an hour later than the rest (5pm JST).
DewPoint Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Luna Park DX Chogokin VF-171EX Armored Nightmare Plus EX (Alto Saotome) Revival Ver. Price a bit high. Purchase at your own risk!
jenius Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 so is this thing supposed to be up at the regular stores in an hour?
Shizuka the Cat Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 I wonder if this will show up on the Amazon US site, like the DX Chogokin VF-25 Worldwide Anniversary version, the VF-25G Revival version, and so on.

DewPoint Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 (edited) It is a WWM release so it should be fairly easy to get. With the current exchange rate you may be better off getting it from a Japanese vendor. Its like a nice discount or free shipping. Going to pass on this one. I don't "need it". I just happened to see it when I was browsing AmiAmi and started looking around. Best of luck to everyone! Edited September 1, 2023 by DewPoint

Lolicon Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Managed to squeeze my HLJ order in right before the red order stop of death appeared.
jenius Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Hobby Search has its listing with the usual insta-sold out https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/11015481
jenius Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 I'm a little surprised that every store except HLJ is trying to make the tax mark-up on us out of country folks. Gimme my 10% off!

Valkyrie23 Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Got 1 at amiami Thanks for the heads up everyone
MKT Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Still up at Amiami after an hour.. tables have really turned lol. Seeing the results of WWM now
26662 Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Secured one at Ami Ami just now. Thanks again for the links, All!
Shizuka the Cat Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Must... resist.... Argh! I just placed an order with AmiAmi.
Lolicon Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Still available at multiple shops. Wonder if this one will become a shelf warmer and derail any future 171 reissues.
Chronocidal Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 (edited) Wow, managed to nap through the whole thing, but AmiAmi and AE still up.. threw an order at AE since I can ship it with other stuff later. I'm thinking the low demand is more a product of the 171's bad history though. Edited September 1, 2023 by Chronocidal
kajnrig Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Yeah, bit of column A, bit of column B, maybe. Picked one up from Amiami just now. As easy as can peasy. This is such a far cry from the old days I don't know what to do with myself. Here's hoping the CF gets announced soon. Maybe they'll use WWM as an excuse to make it the Delta version this time...
Angesdad Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Didn’t have to stay up for this AmiAmi is still wide open this morning?! +1. 😀 Though I would’ve preferred to get my order through HLJ for less.
jvmacross Posted September 1, 2023 Author Posted September 1, 2023 First WWM release pass for me.....glad this one seems to be an easy pickup for most... I'll definitely grab the CF version if released later on...
MKT Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 It’s past 6 hours and counting, and still available at Amiami. This must be a record for any Macross Chogokin lol, even for a WWM. Yeah I guess at this stage folks likely adopting a wait and see approach on what other improvements Bandai gonna implement.

Amiami's now "order closed".
Chronocidal Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Anime Export still showing that they have stock, so long as you didn't already order one.
Mommar Posted September 4, 2023 Posted September 4, 2023 I thought I had pre-oredered at AE but it isn't showing up there now.

Lolicon Posted September 5, 2023 Posted September 5, 2023 25G PO open again. https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?scode=FIGURE-152950

I recall seeing one price listed for the VF171 and it was '30800jpy Now' for their listing, thus the reason why I didn't order with them and waited for Amiami later in the night. When AE gives the option for a 'Now or Later' option there's two prices listed. The 'Now' option is usually listed maybe just a few jpy less than the 'Later' option. This reflects mostly for the rest of the items listed on their site. Maybe someone who had placed an order with AE can chime in. Sorry to hear you lost your PO with AE 😵💫 Edited September 5, 2023 by PsYcHoDyNaMiX
