  1. Pretty sure there's already an armored VF-1J and a VF-1A CF. So just the bottom row, Tomahawk, and Phalanx.
  2. Thanks, ends up cheaper than my existing Amazon order, since that had to route thru Tenso, and paid tax.
  3. Looks like it, but I can't confirm as I only have the original English release. No clue It's vol 1-15 of Last Order, missing vol 16-19. I have 4&5 of the ominbus, and they're each 3 volumes equivalent.
  4. There's actually a third series as well now, Mars Chronicles. Currently up to 5vol released in English, and ongoing. Battle Angel Alita is the first series. Midway through vol9 (the last volume) it diverges. Last Order (19 volumes) continues from the halfway point of Vol 9, and Mars Chronicles follows after Last Order.
  5. I put in an order with a proxy. I really wish Bandai would let the US P-Bandai site have access to more than clothes and watches...
  6. Damn, what scale is that F-14? It's HUGE.
  7. Skipped the original SciFi set. This one I'm in for though.
  8. The VF-25 probably has my favorite packs of any VF. Super, Tornado, Armored, they all look great and it can transform while equipped.
  9. I want one, but honestly I hope it's finished, since the swordfish absolutely needs to be weathered, and I suck at weathering.
  10. NY=Nippon Yasan. Lowest pre-order prices around, highest shipping costs around, massive markups after the initial pre-orders, and customer "service" that'll leave you contemplating homicide and/or suicide.
  11. PF is Premium Finish. For the SDF-1 that means panel lining, matte topcoat, paint applied so there's no sticker sheet, and glow-in-the-dark red/green applied all over to make the windows glow. Take a look at @jenius's review here: http://anymoon.com/blog/?p=4389
  12. I've got a new-in-box non-PF SDF1 I'd sell at cost, but that's still probably around $400.
  13. Very suspicious. Coming from Pomona California? Before it's released in Japan?
  14. I think we know what it means when Tenjin posts new art showing a Tomahawk, with about the same aspect ratio as the HMR Defender/Spartan boxes...
  15. Isamu would probably be alright with it. Now Basara on the other hand...
  16. I work as a Mechanical Engineer, and have worked with several professional CAD programs including AutoCAD (back in 2004 though). I wouldn't use AutoCAD as a baseline for 3D CAD programs, their UI (at least when I used it) is vastly different from anything else. It seems to be optimized for Architectural and 2D work. I'd try and get used to sketchup, or try and get a student license for something more professional (like Solidworks, CREO (formerly PRO/Engineer), or Catia.
  17. NY always overcharges for shipping, PLUS they add the domestic shipping into the shipping charges for P-Bandai items. Not sure about hangar bay. You can try using proxy shopping with FromJapan, or order from Gentei kits (much higher "item price", but sometimes ends up lower cost for smaller kits, like a pair of HG Leos).
  18. Where are you ordering from? They may be adding the domestic shipping onto the international shipping (to make the price look lower).
  19. How would one acquire such things?
  20. My set of Movie Lil' Drakens from NY just showed up. I'm surprised how different the paintjobs are.
  21. This might actually be the same color paint, matte vs gloss really changes what color things look.
  22. I actually prefer the 31C and 31S to the 30 in coloring, but the 30 no doubt has the better pod and profile.
  23. That's where I'm at. May as well skip the Yamato one since Arcadia's releasing a revamp. Since I only started collecting after Yamato went bust, I don't have too many Yamato valks anyway.
  24. I hope that's an early prototype 19S, otherwise WTF?
  25. Did you set the language to English? Globe symbol near the right end of the search bar.
