You guys cant use BBTS and TFsource for pricing regulation of this stuff. Tak Prowl 48$ from AE Has Prowl 60$ from TRU Tak MP Prime 145 from HLJ Tak MP Prime 140 from TRU Tak Grimlock 80 from AE Has Grimlock 70 from TRU You guys are so used to getting raped by US companies importing from oversea's resellers that you take the ether and let it happen. instead of asking why. You live in the Rape world of BBTS and TFsource man, Ultra Magnus is 126$ http://www.anime-export.com/product/19423 There's no way I'm paying the same price for the craptastic, mold flash edged, loose joint Hasbro version for anywhere near that price. There's never been a 200$ MP toy in Japan, and there's no excuse for over paying from US sellers, only to cry about the pricing. MP Grimlock was 105$ when the first run hit, people were like "OMG a 100$ transfomer, no way!" and then it sold out. MP Skywarp was 78$ at HLJ's preorder price, that's 8$ more then a TRU MP seeker MP-10 was the only exception at 176$, but compared to 300$ from BBTS, and that awful loose TRU version for 145. It was worth the extra coin. People just need to learn how to pre-order, and use shipping combining to acquire this stuff.- 16946 replies

I doubt it's a "Second" production run. BBTS and TFsource are notorious for claiming this. If it's not restocked at AE, Amiami or HLJ, it's not a second run. It's a Hasbro Asia Reissue, which means that same old tired out mold that's already had issues. The only other exception, is if one of their distributors found a large cache of left over's. Takara is not going to do a expensive second run, only for a few US companies. Remember that the Japanese market is the sole reason why any of this stuff exists. They don't make stuff for us.- 16946 replies

Macross Collectibles Market Watch - Current Auction/Store SOLD prices
skullmilitia replied to jvmacross's topic in Toys
Mandrake cancelled, I asked for the cheapest shipping option, and the store replied back 47$ for EMS. I said that's too much, can you take it out of the box and ship it loose, and he said no, has to ship as shown. So I didn't pay, I expected it to get canceled like 3 days later, but 2 months later I got an email saying it was cancelled. -

This is basically every single release in the last two years. In fact I took out all my generations figures. I can't even display half of them. Skids won't stand, his hips, knees and ankles are so damn loose he can't even just stand straight up. That's not even including Skids arm which can barely hold his weapons up. then the rest... Sandstorm = loose head (surprised it doesn't fall off), loose shoulders Rhinox = loose knees and hips Whirl = loose shoulders and hips Orange loader guy = shoulders loose Waspinator = loose hips (won't stand on his own) That's basically when i threw them in a tote, to eventually sell at a garage sale. Now I only buy Tak MP's.- 16946 replies

Macross Collectibles Market Watch - Current Auction/Store SOLD prices
skullmilitia replied to jvmacross's topic in Toys
That's the one I bought 2 months ago lol.. And they just canceled this morning. -
The day you can predict HLJ pre-orders, is the day your write a book and make hundreds! lol

I think the VT and VF-1D should be important. But only if they make the right extras with them. The Super O needs both sets of figures, including helmet-less Minmay and Misa. Obviosuly missing exploding shoulders. The VF-1D should come with both Hik, and Mimay, and also come with a falling Hik and Minmay. To really add value throw in the big ass space tuna and decompression door Hikky. Maybe even a cockpit ladder. Either way, it's the small things that could really make these releases shine. cheap and filling accessories will make them sell, put a little heart into it. Forget the stupid oversize stands!

I hit the button at the exact moment that my phone hit 12:00, it loaded as for sale. I added to cart, moved through the address screen in a second, and got lagged on the payment screen For over 3 minutes. I'm guess AmiAmi doesn't have cart jacking. Otherwise I wouldn't have got one. In fact at one point I had to stop the page from loading, and refresh at the payment selection screen.
-
Lol, but it's early bird price!
-
For the first time ever, I got one at AmiAmi. Right as MW died. It took so long to load the cart, I thought I was done for But got the conformation a few seconds after submitting. It was up at CDJAPAN for almost 30 minutes. When I first checked they had 50 copies, after 10 minutes It was at 26 copies. Seems like maybe this will be an easy catch down the road.

I assume you mean What The Fokker?

I'm starting to wonder if they are gonna make anything else before '15. You'd think they'd announce something now the 19' is done.

Came in here expecting a reboot, glad to see it's just a post of the movie. Which is fantastic.

So what you mean, is like me you'll be there to refresh at 12:00:00:01 to see it sold out. Lol

In theory this should be easier to get than the 29' OZ. But I wonder what kind of popularity it has amongst fans that Are in the target market.
