    Nice! That’s one of my most anticipated releases of the year! Can’t wait to get mine! ShowZ f’d me on my order BTW.
  2. Slave IV
    Might as well blame NY for it too. I’m sure the old CEO sneaked into the factories and took all the stock so he can sell them for twice the MSRP back to Arcadia two months after the original release date.

    Yeah, like I said, I get it and totally agree with you for those who don't care to wait. I don't care if they deliver mine or not because I already have a few in hand and only ordered one extra from them as a backup. So just to get the technical facts straight...They did not say they will not deliver them, they just said they can't deliver them now and it is likely they won't be able to deliver but those who want to wait and see, can. If I didn't want to wait, I would be ok with store credit even though I also prefer refunds. Since I am still ok with doing business with them, I probably wouldn't fight for a refund in this case. If I was done with dealing with them, I would 100% get my money back one way or another. Even if it meant going the knee breaking route you suggested.

    The note I got from them says that they don't currently have the stock because they were shorted by their supplier. They say I can either cancel now or just wait to see what happens. Of course, I'm opting to wait.

    Haha yeah. The claims about NY in this case are completely untrue. My lower than MSRP order from them has shipped and I know of at least a few others. Yes, they seem to have delays on some items but again, they are still delivering sooner or later. Even the SSP situation, they are not flat out saying they are not going to deliver. I don't care what people want to do and absolutely understand why many do not want to and will not shop there. All good! I do think it's silly that people come up with their own imaginary stories and explanations and then spread that around and take it as fact. I also don't understand why people are so quick to demand refunds and chargebacks when they have a lowest price locked in without waiting a bit to see what happens. Either way, makes no difference to me other than possibly expediting my orders because of other people cancelling theirs. Sucks there are any issues at all but end of day to me, these are toys and not worth ANY headache so I don't let any of it bother me. I get my toys or I don't and save more money...win, win!

    That sounds like a KO, lol! Will see how it goes with mine.

    What’s wrong with Cable? I just got mine and haven’t opened it yet but I can’t describe any AY figures as “highly disappointing” so far. They are what I consider the best line in comic style toys ever.
  8. Slave IV
    At least the wings line up in Battroid mode on HMRs...

    Yeah, the Tomica cars are really nice. I have a few from when I was a kid and they were always my top mini car toys because the quality was always so noticeably good even as a kid. I still have them all but never thought about buying them now or even knew they still were doing the same thing until I tried to look up info on the old cars I have. I will say there are some better than others and it might be a more premium line but I haven't figured that all out yet. Looking at the F40 box now, it does say "Premium" on it.

    Thanks! It is listed as 1/62 and it's about the same size as a typical HW.
  11. Slave IV
    Indeed it is so I let it slide.
  12. Slave IV
    So how many do you have if it’s not none?
  13. Slave IV
    This may be the nicest little diecast car in my entire collection. Too bad it’s not a Porsche or Audi but it’s not a shabby model itself at all.
  14. Slave IV
    Lol!
  15. Slave IV
    To be fair, it’s not all just Macross. Maybe 30/30/30 Macross/Star Wars/Marvel and 10 everything else.
  16. Slave IV
  17. Slave IV
    Yep, but three of them. One for the opened figures, one for the misb ones and one just in case.

    The Arcadia GBP was just reissued so the price will be lower until stock dries up and it climbs again. These HMRs have been long gone for a while and there is nothing else that comes close in the history of Macross toys that displays and plays as well as this line. Also, specifically regarding the GBP...I think the HMR is probably the best implementation of the feature even at such a small scale. It just fits so perfectly.

    Oh man...those Nintendo Game Watches were such a key part of my childhood memories. Ironically, my family just dusted off the Wii and I introduced Super Mario Bros to them. Kids love it and now want to play it all the time.

    I think the simple answer is no...when I look at my statements, the credit card shows the shop I bought from, not PayPal.
  21. Slave IV
    Oh nice! Didn’t realize he had one already. 5 more to go!
  22. Slave IV
    PayPal advised me to do it this way themselves. End of day, the money is coming from your credit card, not PayPal.
  23. Slave IV
    My Roy 1S hasn’t shipped but most my other orders have been slowly shipping. I’m actually down to less than 10 unshipped orders with them when I used to have countless amounts of orders there.
  24. Slave IV
    Don’t chalk anything to a lesson learned. If you don’t get your items, get your money or credit back. I’m still not worried about my orders at NY but if they ever try to stiff me, no way in hell my money isn’t getting refunded. Always use a credit card through PayPal and you are double protected. Your credit card company will always have your back.

    Love all the pics! I will say that Bandai can’t even completely replace the old 1/48 Yamato’s, let alone the absolutely stellar Arcadia VF-0s. There is no way my Arcadia VF-0s would be replaced if Bandai made Zero Valks. It would just mean my Zero collection gets expanded.
