  1. i think scarcity on its own doesnt fuel desire as much as quality/price/branding does.. although for one of its kind releases, like the yf-30 or vf-31A, scarcity in that "product/mold/shape" certainly fuels desire Point isnt abt westerners or japan, but rather scalpers becoming a barrier to get the product out to consumers. We havent got to the point where the scalpers have totally cornered the macross DX market (and i need to emphasize Macross DX chogokin as HMR's dont face scalping madness), but in the event they do, it might really pose a problem for bandai's Macross DX chogokin brand.
  2. Its fine, am not pressured to get it. I dont want my funds to be tied up with an unfamiliar source for so long.
  3. If the consumer can’t experience the product, they will be accustomed to forget abt it. Or live without it so to speak. Almost pulled the trigger but unfamiliarity with the site held me back.
  4. Make it too difficult for products to get into consumers hands, and the brand dies at the hands of scalpers.
  5. I seriously wish bandai would put in a 2 day pre-order window at least, for Macross DX chogokins. Put in limit 1 or 2 per order and pay upfront to further deter scalpers if needed. *grumble grumble*
  6. https://www.nippon-yasan.com/figures/31626-super-dimension-fortress-macross-dx-chogokin-super-parts-set-for-tv-edition-vf-1.html NY AT 11K...gee thats really way off the DYRL SSPs NY had listed before..... Glad this time at least, i didnt wait for NY...
  7. 11K for TV Supers at NY and sold out..... or wait...... product page says not available...maybe is just a listing coming up...
  8. Seeing proxy listings at CDJ for roy popping up at 35-40k yen....
  9. I wonder if NY will list their TV supers at 9.2k yen as they usually do....
  10. TV Supers at AE. 10800yen http://www.anime-export.com/product/48181
  11. Yeah i paid the first round yesterday. Then they cancelled today. But hopefully you get it. Am not gonna feel pressured to get one. Its a lottery to me now.
  12. Got the FJ cancellation and refund on the way. If bandai dont want my moolah, it be silly to force it down their throat..
  13. Man this is becoming a habit..ok switching from Silvio to George...
  14. Oh oh doesnt give me much confidence then.....
  15. I dont know they came back asking for payment for charge 1 which i paid via paypal...
  16. Trying FJ for p-bandai this time around...payment accepted!
  17. End of October.
  18. i read this too late before adding a FJ order...
  19. So, does this mean there are licensing possibilities for Macross zero valks from Calwings now? Hmmm....VF-0B??
  20. Delta is going up against VF-1 DX squads, GBP DX and YF-21 DX teased. Plus pent-up demand for HMR. Tough sell for delta for a while i think.
  21. Am all aboard for this one, since i passed on the DYRL SP's!
  22. Wait, did bandai say that they will release a hikkie roy in future? I dont understand japanese and all..
  23. Christmas is becoming expensive as usual....
