  1. Even though I'm a die-hard 1/60 Yamato collector, I picked up all of the 1/100 Hi-Metal VF-1s because I thought they would display well with Toynami's 1/100 Regults (and they do). I even ordered a few extra FPs hoping Bandai might make a Miria VF-1J...I should've known better with Bandai's track record that they'd end this line prematurely. It would have been nice of them to complete the YF-21 after seeing the prototype. Oh well...it was fun while it lasted...
  2. Any updates, EXO?
  3. Stunning as always, Kurt! Boy, you weren't kidding. You HAVE had plenty to keep you busy. I'll be sending more work your way any day now.
  4. That's what I'm hoping...
  5. Preorder is up at HLJ for the 1/60 VF-1D Transformable with Option Parts! http://www.hlj.com/product/YMT00227
  6. Do you think I need to worry about AmiAmi selling out before HLJ puts their preorder up? I don't want to run into the same fiasco as the VF-171EX.
  7. When do you think the HLJ preorder will be up for the VF-1D with option parts?
  8. GLORIUIS!!!
  9. That's what I thought...just wondering. Thanks!
  10. Has anyone lucky enough to have made it in time for the AmiAmi preorder received anything other than an "Order Acknowledgement" email yet?
  11. Here's what I got from HLJ customer service early this morning (12:30 AM PST)... Me: Why was this item never available? It went from not existing on your site to Order Stop... HLJ: Wow, that was quick! I didn't even know it was up yet. It got slammed with orders almost instantly. Unfortunately, that happens a lot with hot new items. Hopefully we'll be able to get more and open it up again for orders. Me: Do you know if this was actually available for preorder? Many fans from Macross World Forums (including myself) were refreshing your site multiple times a minute, and they said it went from not being there to "Order Stop". Many fans are VERY upset! Do you know if the page was put up as a place holder, or did this item really sell out that quickly? Is there any way I can get in contact with someone who can tell me for sure if and when this will be available again? HLJ: We are indeed hoping to have it back open for orders soon. Me: When is soon? I really want this, but I can't stay up all night hitting the refresh button HLJ: Really sorry, but I can't say. It may be tonight, it may be tomorrow. It all depends on if we confirm that we can get more stock. I'm sure you understand that we don't want to take more orders than we can fill. That makes even more people angry! The problem is that Bandai is simply not making enough product to meet the demands. We try to secure as much stock as we can, but with the shortages, we simply cannot get enough to meet demand. I think you will find the same situation on any website you go to. We apologize for the inconvenience this situation has caused, and pledge to do whatever we can to get as much stock as possible, and open the item up for orders again as soon as possible.
  12. That's what I'm sayin'!!!
  13. That's not possible...I was just on there!!!
  14. Impeccable work as always, Kurt! It looks like its about time to send you everything for my little project...
  15. No worries, EXO. Just keep up the good work, and keep us posted.
  16. LMFAO!!! Dude, I was thinking the exact same thing!
  17. Way off topic, but I just ordered Macross Triangle Frontier, and was wondering if it allows Valk costomization as well. P.S. I'm gonna have to get at least two of these. Way to go, Yamato!
  18. I have to agree. I have all the non-weathered v.2's, and although this was definitely on my wish list because I'm a completist, I'm liking this scheme probably better than any other v.2...go figure...
  19. Cuh-rap! Looks like I'll be selling off some Valks...
  20. YES!!! My prayers have been answered! Now all we need is a U.N. Headquarters Guard to complete the VF-1 canon list. Yes... ...and yes, please!
  21. I'm loving these too, but at ¥12,000 for a 110-120 mm kit, and my lack of modeling skills, I'm gonna have to pass...
