Haha, make sure you pick up your certificate for Enabling 101. Points go to @dafunguy for planting the seed, @Kicker773 for always setting the bar high and @505thAirborne for the link to finish the job.

Haha, on the 51 thread, @OptionZero just reported that NY gave him the fixed legs parts for just the cost of shipping when he didn’t even buy it from there. AmiAmi and several other shops wouldn’t even help their own customers with it. That sounds like great service from NY to me. As for the shipping issues, they have also given people free upgrades. All sounds pretty good to me. I don’t expect any service when buying products for the Japan market only so anything is going above and beyond from any of these shops. If people don’t like a shop, just stop using them instead of complaining all the time. Yeah, I ended up with okiniland for Kakizaki. I have no loyalty to any shop when it comes to price. Whoever gives me the lowest price and can deliver gets my business. Will see how it goes next time a Macross item goes up for preorder. DX 29 should be a good test.

Nice, NY coming through again with great customer service.
-
I would imagine any new stock going out has it fixed. If I recall correctly, amiami did not support anyone who got the leg issue initially and those people had to reach out to Arcadia directly. And Arcadia was not supporting anyone outside Japan.
-
Ah, thanks for the catch. 51 for sure (edited the post). Milia was no slouch...she would also hand Hikaru and Roy their asses.
-
Yeah, I think it's very safe to say Arcadia is not doing any production runs for M&M or the 35th Anniversary at this point. The GBP is definitely a known reissue that they will be producing more of and the 51 is possible they are still making up for the leg mishap.
-
I thought HLJ never stopped listing them originally because they still had stock.
-
Mine doesn't come loose easily but I'm glad they made it this way since it took a huge fall and the only thing that happened was the floor ate it forever. Good thing there was an extra.
-
I'm with @jenius on this...I think they probably got extra warehouse stock from Arcadia but the main thing is this is most likely not a new production run. If it was, all the other shops would be listing them too.

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Yeah, add this option set to recreate the shogun warrior jumbo vinyl looks and it is nostalgia x1000000! -
Ok, that turned out looking really great! Nice job!

Sweet hauls! I look forward to seeing the cover shot @sh9000 Got a few pieces I’ve been wanting for a very long time. The weapon set is pretty much the greatest thing ever! -
Not really strange or odd...We are still getting plenty of VF-1 toys released currently and that was over 35 years ago. There are new Mazinger and Gatchaman toys coming out that I buy and those came out over 40 years ago... Same here and I'm glad I skipped all the issue prone Valks of the time. I'll definitely be grabbing this (if I can get a preorder in) and any others. If they don't make others, money saved and I still get to enjoy looking at pictures of old ones that people have.

Haha, I’m sure there are no regrets by anyone who owns the Arcadia 0S right? It’s been working out great for me. They are the only shop that has actually improved their website based on troubles people have during preorder madness. I never experience a single glitch on NY, it’s either you get it or you don’t. HLJ and AmiAmi on the other hand...constant crashing and glitches where people have to try over and over again just to even attempt to check out. HLJ is practically useless at this point for preorder madness and AmiAmi is a pita and would be as bad as HLJ if they didn’t prepost everything.

Fantastic! -
I look forward to less competition when preordering at NY!
-
Those a$$holes. Now I’m going to place another order there.
-
I love how it’s NY’s fault that Arcadia has delayed the release in some people’s minds.
-
I might as well just add that the Arcadia VF-0S is one of the best Valk toys ever made. Strong contender for #1 along with the DX VF-1 depending on your preference.
-
I’m aware of oversized KOs and I know some are good or better quality than the originals. Just had to qualify that I need those standards to consider purchasing. I don’t need one or ever thought about it as I would be happy to just get reissues but if it happens and it meets my specs, I’m in!

Nice!

And when you factor in the “actually available” part, it amounts to nearly nothing!
