Ordered one of each. Which isn't super helpful as I like to get 3 of each. But I'm likely to get all mine local since HLJ rarely comes through for me. I still haven't gotten any of the Max/Miria VF-22s I ordered.

Even the VF-22’s in sets of three. Just they limited the decals to only three, so I had to get those locally. I think the trick is to just order on day one for the kits you want. Bandai seems a bit slower at reissuing kits than they used to be and these days it may end up cheaper at some of the local spots. Personally, I haven’t ordered any of the delta kits because they haven’t announced the one I would buy. the Bandai figures at hlj have been tough, but at least they put order stop on those. Wasn’t able to get that Char Aznable sh figuarts and unfortunately none of the local spots have had preorders for him.

I actually got 6 sets of the decals from HLJ, but 0 of the kits. 🤣

When the kits and decals got released, kits went straight to backorder and i got nothing, but the decal order was fulfilled. A little while later, kits still backordered, but decals sitting there in stock. So I tried ordering another 3, to see what would happen. They went ahead and fulfilled the order, despite my other 3 sets still sitting there in private warehouse. So if they were ok with it, I feel clear conscience

kajnrig Posted June 7 Posted June 7 Since it's not a Bandai kit, I didn't think there'll be any stock issues. I've gotten all my Hasegawas, Plamaxes, Kotobukiyas, etc. from them right on schedule. Still, fingers crossed. On the subject on Bandai and HLJ, I got orders fulfilled of some random repros in the last few months. Nice surprise, that. IIRC a Mega Size Zaku and a HG O Gundam. So it's still a decent way to get their back catalog at a good price. Just add them to the PW pile you're already building up.

Raikkonen Posted June 9 Posted June 9 Is the VF-31A Kairos (all grey one) scheduled in this line up? I've read there's 5 planned so far...

I’ve been keeping an eye out for it and unfortunately not yet. I’m still hoping they do one because it’s the only variant that I actually want
Raikkonen Posted June 10 Posted June 10 At least I'm not the only one waiting for a non Power Rangers version.

Considering Bandai likes to troll Macross fans and the easy money from them, it might likely end up a Japan only lottery release 🤣

sh9000 Posted 9 hours ago Author Posted 9 hours ago My 2 main wants from this line are a VF-31A and VF-11B. I'd gladly get multiples of both.
