    Would be nice to think that SDFM/DYRL Bandai stuff would sell for less than the cost of buying straight from Japan...too bad we'll never know
  2. jvmacross
    It would be nice if all POs actually released a month or so after placing a PO...

    Any indication whether Spiderman will make an appearance? The last one seemed to imply that the 2 would meet...

    That was not what they had said previously.... Unless the 2-pack special for people that that previously purchased the regular regult is being handled differently? If not, they are going back on what was previously confirmed. Even if the special 2-pack includes the pilots...it makes no sense not to include them with the individual missile releases... I will email them and find out...

    KC needs to clarify the "no pilot" for the missile regults... On their FB site...they were asked specifically about pilot inclusion in the missile regults...KC had responded that they would be included... I think it would be bad not to... Hopefully somewith FB account can ask them to clarify their original response...

    There was plenty of DYRL merch being released using HG licenses....whether you thought they were good is irrelevant.....the only point you need to understand is that now that we are starting to have vendors making better products, they are now limited to SDFM only....so yeah, options for DYRL fans have decreased post HG/BW agreement...
  7. jvmacross
    If things were truly "status quo", in terms of "SDFM/DYRL"...HG would not hesitate to issue licenses for DYRL-themed merch....as they did in the past Now, vendors like KitzConcept and Three-Zero are locked out of producing DYRL merch using a HG license...with absolutely no hope of attaining BW licenses to produce DYRL-themed merch... So for folks that care more about SDFM/DYRL...your options have inexplicably decreased under the new HG/BW arangement...

    Thanks again for posting this...I had apparently received the amazon.jp email about this too but it was buried in my junk email...LOL Anyways, the form was easy enough to submit...they just wanted your shipping info and a copy of your purchase receipt, in my case it was my paid invoice from AJ... I did not read anywhere on the link about not being able to fulfill non-Japanese orders, but hoping for the best...but expecting nothing... In either case, I went ahead and just bought one off auction...I think the card may be the same for all releases, PS5, PS4, and Switch...however, I think some of the other "extras" are specific to where you ordered your "limited" edition from....a waiting game now...the one item I am looking forward to the most is the special book and the art card with the Mikimoto "Macross the First" style character art....oh and, of course, the special box art featuring the same Mikimoto graphic....

    No idea...but this is why I did not have high hopes when the HG-BW deal was first announced...imo, things have actually gotten worse...for SDFM-DYRL fans
  11. jvmacross
    Great.... So wonder if you will be SOL if you ordered from AJ to ship to the US/Outside of Japan... Would explain the listings for the art card on auction sites...

    Is this Batman still part of his own DC universe? Or at some point are we going to get a DC Gunn-verse Batman?
  13. jvmacross
    Is HG charging too much to provide a license so Macross content is included in merch like this? Or is BW prohibiting these Japanese companies from being able to release anything SDFM-DYRL outside of Japan via a HG license? It really makes no sense...either way... I suppose in this game's release...the content is for DYRL...so HG may or may not have any license to provide...if so, then why would there be an issue releasing it? In short, nothing has changed for fans of SDFM-DYRL....in fact, things may have gotten worse for fans because now it would seem HG is somehow unwilling to assume rights to the DYRL designs as it did in the past....meaning no DYRL VF-1's from Kitz Concept or Three-Zero...but somehow...DYRL merch is still blocked from release outside of Japan....by who? No one knows...lol
  14. jvmacross
    Who knows....I doubt Harmony Gold would object to anything that comes to them for review...although unlikely, I would hope the delay is due to customer feedback from the shows where they have displayed their "prototype"....mainly the liberties they took on the head units for both the -1J and -1S....
  15. jvmacross
    Based on his own words...it seems Dana was never going to be more than a "one and done" Southern Cross release from the start...and based on the limited info from collectors...it seems it wasn't all that great....seriously, where are all the figure pics and reviews? Anyways....I'd rather see a TV Q-Rau, TV N-Ger, and/or Glaug...
  16. jvmacross
    I'm mostly in for the "extras" available from the limited editions...namely the art cards, books and special cover art... But it is disappointing to hear that the "international" release will not only be missing the SDFM content...but also additional language options... Can't blame HG this time around...at least not for the lack of language options
  17. jvmacross
    The position of that leg tab only matters if the corresponding "hole" in the back pack where it attaches to is not at the appropriate position.... Based on how it looks like in fighter mode....it looks like they did not goof it up like KitzConcept... Yamato-Arcadia positioned this leg tab below the edge of the leg...as did KC on the first and only V 2.0... But looks like ThreeZero is copying the tab based on what Bandai did with their VF-1 DX...even the shape! But the ThreeZero seems longer?
  18. jvmacross
    Just email KC...They probably didn't sell-out 300 sets during this promo...if you ask nicely they can probably get you a PO slot... Or just wait to get it on it's own...

    Currently it is being made available for "free" with the PO of the M&M Arcade valks.... https://www.kitzconcept.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=121 It has not been shown yet...but I doubt it will be done in a plastic officer uniform like the Misa fig...they seem to be doubling down on the cloth style...
  21. jvmacross
    I'm in agreement...unless it is the odd new item announcement that is available to ship right away...like the recent 'low viz" variants....going to hold off on any additional POs until they are caught up.... Not sure if you saw the Roy GBP video, but they do mention that they will do VF-1A CF and M&M -1J GBP variants... Other than the VF-1D, they are running out of canon variants...was hoping they would anounce the Alaska base VF-1, but maybe they are doing a Bandai HMR Tomahawk/Phanalnx with that one....

    Collector = A person who can easily hide their collection of stuff if they need to or want to, via dedicated "display and/or storage areas" within their own home.... Hoarder = A person whose "collection" is displayed and/or stored in every space of their home because it is no longer possible for any part of their home to be deliberately free of their "collection"... Both individuals have the same type of OCD...one is just more socially acceptable when people outside of their social network become aware of their "collection"... Definitely a fine line between both, I think that when you go from "wanting" to collect to "needing" to collect...you have become a hoarder without realizing it...
  23. jvmacross
    Agreed....the VF-1S head is terrible....unfortunately, the VF-1J head isn't that great either...
  24. jvmacross
    Although they do not look like they are offerring anything radically superior to any currently available VF-1 at any scale....I still look forward to getting at least one in-hand... With that said, I think it's very good timing for KC to be moving onto the enemy mechs and hopefully the Destroids...VF-1 fatigue may finally be getting to me...almost
  25. jvmacross
    LOL...the longer you look at it...the worse it becomes...don't care for the Michael Jackson gloves either.... At this point I want to see what they'll do with the Millia fig...I assume they are going cloth too in her UN Spacy officer uniform...just sticking to zero expectations for that one...as I have it on PO already with the Arcade VF set... Incidentally, the Max figure I somehow forgot to PO....May as well just wait until release...
