    Thought of opening new thread, but perhaps we just need a thread title update to insert Unix Square somewhere? @no3Ljm. So this transformable 1J is at HKD1250, which puts it slightly higher than the Threezero's. Obviously the 75% discount at the upcoming exhibition is a typo, what they meant is 25% off. Size in Battroid at 22cm is about comparable to Threezero / Yamcadia. Somehow it looks better in the grey prototype they showed previously, hopefully they have colour samples of other modes in the exhibition. But I'm so tired of Rick / Hikaru 1J scheme.

    I can only think playing cards have elements of gambling which is frowned upon in certain countries and so attract higher taxes.

    @Zeliard's experience with Luna Park does highlight how unified HS Codes can be important for folks in certain countries. It was around a year ago that HS Code declaration by the shipper was mandatory for parcels shipped out of Japan, including via Japan Post. I checked back a few shipping dispatch notes received over the past year from multiple vendors (HLJ, Mandarake, Nin-Nin etc), and they all use the same 9503.00 code that's generally applicable to Toys and Models category. Luna Park using another code (9504.40 applies to Playing Cards) is really a booboo on their part. So just curious if LP have also been using this wrong code for all of their other shipments over the past year outside of this VT-1. Perhaps we have to first confirm with smaller vendors, or vendors that we have not ordered from before, the HS codes they will be using to prevent unnecessary taxation when it lands in our country.

    @dtrinh Sucks to hear both copies have the same issue. Hopefully Luna Park is able to get the replacements for you.

    Another review. I mostly skimmed through it just to be curious if the missiles will be installed backwards lol. But they were properly installed. What's surprising is that the missiles look massively undersized compared to the Yamcadia (he compares with the KO 1/60). And apparently the 1/60 missiles fit right onto TZ's pylons.

    I think despite what the official specs say, the VT-1 is the fastest valk ever judging by how fast it flew to everyone's doors. All boosters and no weapons really help with the weight.

    With a P-Bandai item, gotta remember retailers will be slower to get their stock in, while waiting for their own proxy, proxy dupes, proxy friends & family to get item in hand before sending it out to said retailer’s warehouse. If by now any retailer haven’t sent out any copies (perhaps Nin-Nin?), I suspect it’s just they are waiting for majority stocks to arrive first before initiating the fulfilment process.

    Moderately bent going by comparison with others. I just wanted to first exhaust options with HLJ, in case they or Bandai asked to send in the bent part if there is a replacement to be given. Guess I'll straighten it myself now. Meanwhile, Bandai published a support article on how to detach & re-attach the head lasers. https://support.bandaispirits.co.jp/s/article/20240705

    I think 'contacting supplier' reply is a standard initial response from HLJ for replacement part request. I've also just received the rejection mail from HLJ just now. As you are in Japan, perhaps you'll have better luck in contacting Bandai directly? That seems to work based on a few examples posted over the past few pages..

    Love this display. @Angesdad I’m still waiting reply from HLJ. Meanwhile, someone else did get replacements from them yesterday. Bit of head scratcher why HLJ telling some there no replacements from Bandai, & at same time others do get it.

    I like watching his reviews, usually he has fantastic still montages at the end of his videos. This is first time I'm seeing him handling a transformable figure though. He nearly put on the missiles backwards too.

    Wasn't planning to get this at all, but a chance popped up to pick it up cheap, and I took it. I like the arcade cabinet-style packaging of the normal versions better haha.

    Thanks for the pics @tekering. Somehow, I prefer the beige either the HMR or Yamato used. The light beige used on the DX reminds me of a yellowing valk lol. But that may be a good thing down the road. @Usagi Thanks for the video too. Now I can't get the image of a frying pan stuck on face out of my head. It's Moehime-Japantoys. Anyone buying from them just be careful to make sure any PO's are well within PP's 6-month protection window.
