Also, the SV-51, what an absolute unit

No, it is 1/48. Size it's similar to rest of the 1/60 (Arcadia VF-0, Bandai VF-25, etc)

Great start indeed. This is just a personal opinion, feel free to toss it through the window, but IMHO Valks start to look much better once you start playing with their knees (rotate, bend, twist). Kakizaki there looks like a painted Chunky-Moneky :-)

Thanks for the replies. And yes, I reported my "purchase" to Nippon Yassan as "scam" to my bank. We'll see if I get my money back :-)

42k, geez... Was that the original price, or is there a markup?

Jesus.... 2004 I was meeting my first girlfriend, she hadn't die yet (obviously). Hadn't met my first wife. I was living in a different continent I hadn't even bought my first Toynami Masterpiece Robotech "Varitech". Here for another 16 years folks :-)

I learned late. I posted in part to help other people avoid the same mistake.

The current status according to the page is "Preorder Payment - OK", they just say in the chat that it has been handled over to Japan Mail. Now I find it difficult to believe that you just give over 20 thousan yen to the mail without them giving you any way to identify or track it. Smells BS to me. It's the lack of communication that kills me.

Hello folks, First my apologies to the mods, I didn't knew where to put it, and since it's definitely related to Toys, I thought this would be the most appropriate place. Going through the threads I saw several messages of people warning about bad experiences with Nippon Yasan, and of course being (semi) young and stupid I though: "that's never going happen to me..." I had/have a pre-order of 4 items with Nippon Yasan (September 2019). Long story they said they could send just 2 of those. Right now they say that Japan Mail has my order, yet they fail to provide a tracking number. I got scammed, badly. And it's partially my fault for ignoring all the red flags, so if you are new to this and plan to order something from them: beware. In a modern civilized world, there should be a way to rectify this. Obviously this is not going to get fixed through Costumer Support. I wanted to check with you guys what are my options at this point. Can I request a refund to the credit card company based on a scam? Not aware of japanese law, but (leaving the monetary cost aside for a moment) would it be possible to sue them or legal action? Please any ideas, tips or stories would be greatly appreciated.

Can you file a scam complain with the credit card company?

Thanks for all the answers, I really appreciate it. I'm really looking for the PF. The pf link for HLJ seems to be 404, same as Amazon JP. I don't mind waiting, so I guess I'll roll the dice with NY :-/ Thanks! :-*

Hey guys, Coming back from vacation and I think I missed most of the chatter regarding the VF-4G, I can only find the premiun finish version on Nippon Yassan: https://www.nippon-yasan.com/lang-es/figures/32131-the-super-dimension-fortress-macross-flash-back-2012-vf-4a-lightning-iii-ichijou-hikaru-type-premiumu-finish.html Is that "ok" ? I'm pretty sure it is not a bargain, but is still a reasonable price? Thanks!

Yeah, also got one from AMIAMI (waiting on confirmation email), keep refreshing

Yeah, this is one that I would have definitely bought directly, but most definitely won't get from a scalper...
