I’m expecting another super crazy pre order party on the 27th...
-
Completely agree. This was also my approach when I contacted them in June, and I got a response and shipment update within hours.
-
Congrats!! The wait is finally over
-
thanks for the link, too late I had already ordered mine at Amiami. Maybe the lesson to learn is, next time no need to get up for HMR preorders
-
One and done at amiami, SAL shipping. Thanks for the links

1/48+fp's, 1/60+fp's, 1/72, 1/2k, 1/3k,1/100 and now 1/144

Great pic as always i love how your dark background and the soft lighting on the valks make them stand out. Do you use a light box or is this a more sophisticated studio setup? I was thinking of getting the amazon basics portable studio for taking shots of my valks, but not sure if it has a black background option. -

^THIS!! Since getting the 31A last week I couldn’t resist and bid on a used YF-30 just because I liked the shape of the 31A fighter mode so much. Bandai can have direct access to my bank to draw funds the day they announce a Chronos in 31A color scheme... -
Love the flying banknote in the background!!!
-
Thanks for the info, but yeah I understand how quickly things could change with Macross POs LOL. I think I'm going to wait in the morning and order one from somewhere, but if I miss it, hopefully after market prices won't be too bad before release date anyway.
-
x2 here with the heatshield fix on my wishlist.
-
Do HMR pre-orders typically sell out as quickly as DX's? For the VT-1, I was able to order one on NY in the morning (US time) of the release date. Not sure what it was like with the VF2SS first release.
-
I have the same problem on the same side as well on the 31A. Checked my 31F and it was fine. I have not transformed mine yet out of the box (the 31A I mean)
-
Thanks! Yeah to be honest the TWE box didn't really matter to me because I wasn't planning on selling mine, but it was a good feeling to open it up and hold a brand new Chogokin DX Valk in hand. I checked under the wings and didn't find any blemishes. So I guess that Bandai have started rolling out second batches in June (hence the TWE box if it came straight from Bandai to NY). Hopefully they will speed up the deliveries for the rest of us who are still waiting.
-
Congrats! More orders being filled. I received mine over the weekend (SAL) and didn’t even realize it was the 31A at first because the value was declared as 6,000 yen. I thought it was the Alto super parts set. It came with the brown TWE shipping box as well.

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Have you seen the preview pics of MP Optimus Prime 3.0? I'm not sure how I feel about the truck mode with such a fragmented surface. The bot mode looks kinda weird to me too. Still like my MPP-10 and MPP-10B more I think. -
I am waiting for a PF 0D as well... if that ever comes out.

I am very intrigued about BadCube's take on MP-12. Especially impressed that the two variations are not simple color rehashes of a single mold. I already have the MP-12 and the oversized version, but may get a third just because of the renewed design. -
Agree completely with you on the neck pistons. They just look wrong and they stand out far too much to ignore.
-
Still a big fan of your pictures. This angle looks like the cover photo on the 31A box for the fighter mode?
-
I think a few of the 10/7 orders have started shipping but there are orders on 10/6 and before that may not have shipped yet. They have mostly been fulfilling single orders but we have seen a few double orders being filled as well.
-
Sorry to hear your experience with MyKombini and totally understand the frustration from your perspective, but I also think that others have a point when they pointed out that the vendors' hands are probably tied if Bandai isn't helpful in sending out spare replacement parts in the first place. Have you tried swapping the armor parts with fellow MW members? Anyway I hope you will get your replacement soon.

@borgifiedcongrats on getting the 31C super parts finally! -
Congrats to everyone who got shipment notices this week. Seems like they are picking up the pace now!
-
Thanks, slowed down quite a lot the last couple of days, still on prize list 6 hoping to get that 2x 4* card prize... and I think I'll be done after that. The next set of 4* cards is two lists away and there's no way I can get enough medals before Saturday. About the idols, I have been very biased and just used Minmei and Sheryl as my main so far. Maybe I should start using some of the Delta Walkures....

Congrats, it’s nice to see more deliveries this month! So maybe the June restock rumor had some truth to it after all?
