    Bandai DX VF-31

    this is starting to worry and annoy me a bit. I see guys who ordered wth CDJ getting shipping rate updates and I haven't had any requests for additional payment or a pre shipment confirmation. I got another response from CDJ last night regarding my query that a member here claims their order was shipped and yet they told me again they are still awaiting stock. Whether that means they are awaiting more stock or have yet to receive any stock at all, yet Master Dex got a notification from them which would appear his order will ship soon?? I'm confused and getting somewhat irritated. Also, why would Bandai shorten production numbers and short supply their vendors? I thought web exclusives gave the manufacture more accurate figures towards their production requirement meaning less risk? Or could there have been I high number of QC issues with this one? Very curious.

    Hehe! Are you enabling!?!? I'm sure they will but I'm still thinking the 31f set looks great on them!

    The 31a definitely does look cool with the 31f supers fitted! Should I buy a set or not is the question..
  7. Couldn't find an existing thread for this trailer so here's this one.. mods please move to appropriate location if need be. Thanks. Definitely looking for to this one!

    Hehe! Yeah I have been adding more and more diecast cars to my collection! I now have more cars than Valkyries! Especially after the last lot of Valks I recently sold..
  9. LOL! yep that's definitely most of us here..

    bahhh.. that's like coming out of the Maccas drive through and they've given you an extra small fries.. If they had given you an extra DX 31A then THAT would be like getting a family of four meal box when you only ordered a small thick shake! so nothing to see here, move along move along..

    things have definitely slowed for some of us eh.. I'm sure I would be up around the 12k mark also but some things have changed a lot for me over the last 12 to 18 months and apart from me sneaking into the forum during work hours (like at this very moment ) that I don't get much time to at home.. other than during pre-order madness moments..

    at this rate I doubt we'll get them before April.. I've just gotta try being more patient.
  15. oh yeah, cool!
  16. hehe! yeah those foot pegs are quite far back eh! kinda like a drag bike. Even though race bikes tend to have pegs a bit further back to allow you to brace and push forward under hard acceleration but these pegs mounted on the swing arm is a definite no no.. The shock would transmit directly to the riders legs and would make riding over bumpy surfaces next to impossible as the energy would be continuously trying to throw you off the bike! I guess the design of the toy being able to transform limited the placement of the pegs so they just had to go there. Either way I'm still hanging to get this ride armor toy! Also, so it looks like the release is now into April? Oh well, I've spent a fair amount this month on other stuff so I'm happy with that.
  17. looks really good! I had actually considered getting one of these myself. What are your impressions of this model? The two door is certainly one of my favorite Subaru rally cars. I don't have any rally cars in my collection anymore.. must find something!

    I sent an email to CDJ asking when they will ship my 31A's and they replied saying they haven't even received them in stock as yet? But they "assured" me that my order will ship as soon as stock is available. I did mention that a member in a unspecified Macross related forum had received shipping notice for their order from CDJ but I am yet to hear a response to that. Has anyone got shipping notice from the other big popular stores? HLJ, Ami, NY, 1999 etc.. ?

    oh cool! that's good to know! I feel a little better my order now! Hope it ships soon..
  20. LOL! I wasn't aware they made figurines of this series! My youngest brother loved watching that cartoon..

    I wasn't aware of that "system" they use and to be honest its not confidence inspiring. I haven't ever had any issue with CDJ other than one book that never arrived as it got lost in transit but they did issue another very promptly. However, I did hand over $1100 of my hard earned cash for the three 31A I ordered and it is a bit irritating to see others people have already got shipping notification for their orders and the rest of us are still waiting. Personally I would have thought customers with orders of multiples would have gotten priority as we spent more money but I guess that just an unrealistic customer expectation. I have been patient for the last 6 months but can you blame some of us for starting to get a little restless about the whereabouts of our orders? I think not.
  22. wow! that wallet destruction gif certainly gets good mileage!
