    I think I'll stick to the <$5 flat fees from my preferred proxies, or use my Tenso address and still pay less. I refuse to use any proxy that charges a percentage.

    $4 per shop $1 per item 12% service fee on item price. I think I'll skip them, 12% is just ridiculous.

    Kind of interesting how Bandai actually ends up cheaper than Yamato, once you factor in exchange rate and inflation.

    Huh, I knew they did it with the MG, wasn't aware on the PG. Going based entirely on photos, it does look like the PG "Narrative" is a much more yellow gold color, while the older one isn't nearly as yellow. I suppose I could grab a narrative version and do a comparison, I got my OG kit back near the first release. [edit] Looks like there's an OG version on Ebay for $636: https://www.ebay.com/itm/124874887886

    Eh, the current prices are only about $150 over the MSRP of $500.

    Might be a side-effect of shipping in battroid form. More stress on the joint that way, whereas in fighter there's a few more pegs holding everything together.

    I remember being at the EAA Airventure convention in Oshkosh, listening to Burt Rutan when a harrier took off and interrupted him. "Put enough thrust on any piece of $#!7 and it'll fly"

    Macross Plus already had an official US release many years ago, and is one of the most popular Macross series in the US. [edit] Mainly I was pointing out that there is no way for anyone outside Japan to see/have seen the new Delta movie until it comes out on disc. Whereas even for frontier, people have been able to get the discs and watch fansubs for many years.
  9. Sanity is Optional
    Probably at least in part because it's for a movie with no international release, whereas Delta TV/movie 1 was a while back and the disc releases had English subtitles.

    It's the three most recent non-TV/DYRL DX Chogokin releases, i.e. the most recent 3 releases they are allowed to sell in the US. Also there's a reason the Bandai YF-19 is going above MSRP, while the Arcadia is going below MSRP (or roughly at MSRP) despite being released longer ago. The Bandai is a solid figure.
  11. Sanity is Optional
    Yup, they posted like the first 5min of the film on youtube (region locked), and the SV-303 is shown on screen and named.

    Asked for VF-25, YF-21, and Tomahawk on my end, forgot to ask for a TV SDF-1.

    Got mine from Amazon Japan last Friday, they just threw it in a slightly oversized box with a single small sheet of crumpled brown paper and shipped it DHL. Miraculously, the DX box is essentially untouched... still wondering how that managed to happen.
  14. Sanity is Optional
    Since they just did the VF-1D, they could milk that double-cockpit mold for a VT-1 next.

    My order through an Amazon Japan reseller ($390 shipped) ought to show up Monday. Guess I ought to be glad my initial scalper reseller cancelled my order, saved $25...
  16. Sanity is Optional
    Yes, they did. Not the cheapest, but shipped via Amazon at least, so that wasn't too bad of a cost.
  17. Sanity is Optional
    Mine I ordered last night (after my earlier Amazon Japan seller cancelled...) ran $390 with Amazon shipping.

    FYI, the side-leg Missiles (the 4-packs) are removable.
  19. Sanity is Optional
    Totally fits, even on the stand, no problem.
  20. Sanity is Optional
    The Bandai one.
  21. Sanity is Optional
    So, has anyone figured out what to do with the gunpod while it's in the armor?
  22. Sanity is Optional
    Just put up my Snow White over the weekend, takes up pretty much an entire Detolf shelf, and the wings are a bit restricted. So yeah, likes lots of display space.
  23. Sanity is Optional
    Got a pair of the add-ons in-hand, taking pictures now. Anyone have any questions on it?
  24. Sanity is Optional
    My armored part add-ons are out for delivery, should be able to get some images up later today.
  25. Sanity is Optional
    My proxy has shipped my 2x Armored packs (just armored pack, not combo). No estimated delivery date yet though, hopefully will get here sometime this week.
