  1. I ordered from Luna Park relatively late on 02/01/2024 (pretty sure I did not opt for premium - don't recall being given an option) and my Super O arrived yesterday. I don't know what happened in the past to make some folks wary of LP, but my personal experience is that they've come through every time. Nothing comparable to Nippon-Yasan in the late 2020/early 2021 timeframe (those jerks got free money from me).
  2. Not I...but I do supposedly have one that's about to ship.
  3. I keep forgetting Bandai hasn't released a DX Hikaru VF-1A yet. That seem as likely as the Max if not more so.
  4. That would still require a different mold, no? The VT-1/VE-1 have the stepped style tandem seating. Pattern thus far (for original Macross) has looked like this, barring any sneaky/exclusive re-releases: Wave 1 Hikaru VF-1J TV Missiles Max VF-1A TV Wave 2 Hikaru VF-1S Movie SSP Movie Kakizaki VF-1A Movie Wave 3 Roy VF-1S TV Super Parts TV VF-1D TV Wave 4 GBP Hikaru VF-1J w/ GBP My money would be on a Max VF-1A DYRL? as the MOST likely candidate. Particularly since they teased one when they released the original SSPs.
  5. My Luna Park order (VF-1J w/ armor) just arrived today.
  6. Got a shipping notice today from Okini Land. Still waiting to hear from Luna Park on my December pre-order (status still shows as "confirmed"), but I'm not worried. [Update: current DHL Express tracking status says Shipper has generated a shipment label, but the shipment has not yet been handed over to DHL This could have do with the Tamashii Web Shop exclusive nature of the item, or maybe the initial language in their email notification was misleading, but I've reached out to OL just to confirm. ]
  7. Noted and ordered...I've never been able to catch a pre-order in time to order from BiJ, but I've definitely heard of them through this community. Thanks, jenius! So...two GBP armor sets supposedly locked. Now...to wait for the VF-1J combo. That (placeholder) appears to be up at Nin-Nin.
  8. I guess...they got my money and I have an order in. I noticed the pre-order page just as yman1437 was posting about it. But I looked a second time and realized they would actually take the order, so...fingers crossed. I ordered TV Super packs in the past through Kurama and had no issue.
  9. For those of you playing "What's NeDXt?" at home (I think I have this right): Wave 1: Hikaru VF-1J | TV | DEC 2018 DX Missile Set | MAY 2019 Max VF-1A | TV | SEPT 2019 Wave 2: Hikaru VF-1S | DYRL? | NOV 2019 Super/Strike Parts | DYRL? | DEC 2019 Super/Strike Parts - Reissue | DYRL? | APR 2020 DX Missile Set - Reissue | JUN 2020 Kakizaki VF-1A | DYRL? | AUG 2020 Wave 3: Hikaru VF-1S Roy | TV | NOV 2020 Super Parts | TV | DEC 2020 Super Parts - Reissue | TV | APR 2021 VF-1D | TV | JUL 2021 GBP Armor | SEPT 2021 Hikaru VF-1J bundled with GBP Armor | SEPT 2021
  10. More pre-order shipping/receiving news: I received my TV super parts from Anime Expo (ordered 07/06/20) and MyKombini (ordered 07/08/20) today. Still waiting on news from a third set from Kurama Toys (ordered 07/07/20). They reached out on 12/21 to confirm my shipping address, but no word on when the item would actually ship.
  11. Okini Land has a 1 per customer limit, so I scored a VF-1D there and another through Luna Park. Fingers crossed.
  12. Same. Hoping other opportunities open up. When Kakizaki came out, things went very smoothly for me. Fingers crossed. I was on board for a VF-1D from the start, and getting a fan racer is gravy...I had stopped chasing Yamato Macross toys by the time they released their version.
  13. Could the placement of red dot on the HMMP-02 be another variance between SDFM and DYRL? After all, we don't see strike cannons in SDFM. This is an easy enough thing for me to hand-wave, personally. Perhaps the (fictional) manufacturers started early production runs differentiating the sensor/light placement as left or right, then realized the interchangeability of the store made it pointless to do so, resulting in the decision to produce all further versions with the sensor/light positioned in the same place in the name of efficiency. Ergo, you have fewer in inventory with the sensor on the lower starboard corner of the front of the HMMP-02, but they do exist.
  14. Not that I'm aware of. But it seems like free money (for Bandai) to me given the existence of the Hikaru 1S.
