I believe that Mirage and Arad had extra ones as well. Chucky has that mohawk like headscupt, and if you break it accidently, then it becomes a VE-1 and Luca's/Michael's 25 headscupt.

Manda has high standards of grading stuff that's for sale as they're secondary sellers of items that they have to offer to the public. Box damaged is how they classify stuff for secondary re-sale and they will list other damages/missing items at a slightly lower price in hopes that it can be sold very quickly. Amiami and Jungle also grades their found items for sale as well. Don't forget to check out those threads for deals as well @ LRS as its in the For Sales Section on the home page.

So you're the one that snagged the 31J Kei for 21k yen @Sandman! Edit: I believe posted the link here and on the Manda thread as well. @rdrunner had a snag with Manda and he got a refund somehow and he did mention it briefly. He's not on the threads that regularly, however I'll PM him to help you out in this thread.

Time to toss in the scene of the scared Zentradi cringing in fear when the wind up Minmei in the China Doll dress starts to walk.

DX SSP for 12k yen (unopened, package damaged) https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1127163959&ref=list&keyword=マクロス&lang=en

Came in yesterday. I actually like this version better than the G1 God Ginrai/God Bomber combo. Might have the itch get the Fans Hobby version and God Bomber (both in the same colours) later this year.

Going to post HMR grabs on the Manda thread to keep it clear, also for the Amiami and Jungle thread as well. So keep an eye on those threads! I may post the occasional ones here.

Some do not follow the Manda thread (or Amiami, NY, ebay or any others all) @sh9000 and this is the only place that they get the HMR deals. So unless there is general conciseness of rules that deals or any other related HMR stuff is for up grabs then where should it go?

Just got dropped off five mins ago. Package from Manda via EMS has been disinfected and now sitting out on my balcony plus keeping a watch for it the next half hour. Paid on the 26th, sent out for shipping on the 27th, dispatched on the 28th. Came into the Canada Post depot at Vancouver, British Columbia on the 4th and went through Customs. Back into the sorting line and went to the proper channels to get it delivered. Will post on the proper thread once I get a chance to open it.

DX SSP up for grabs at 12k yen (unopened, package damaged). Don't know if this is the first or the newly second batch to be honest. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1137527845&ref=list&keyword=マクロス&lang=en

Providing that if you have the adapters from the set, I'm sure that you should be able to (circled here from jenuis' blog). * The second pics is the OG adapters from Yamato Valk stand or get one from Yeti (I'm sure that there is one for the VF-17 in the OG stand) * Edit: Dang it! Now you made me want to get a VF-17.

Here's one that @wmkjr posted on March 1. Which brings up this question: @Saburo - I remember that you had a pic with the DX Max's 1a with the DX SSP set. I take it that's it been removed as I can't seem to find it anymore.

Either the day of or before. You can also track it online if they sent you the link.

Anyone for Wave's: Beach Queens Minmay for 15k yen? (released in Feb. 2010) https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1137218848&ref=list&keyword=%E3%83%9E%E3%82%AF%E3%83%AD%E3%82%B9&lang=en

Just saw this as you're in the United Kingdom... As of today: https://personal.help.royalmail.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5317/~/international-incident-bulletin For any packages/mail to Canada, this is what mentions: What's the issue? As previously advised, Canada Post have notified us that they are experiencing delays to delivery services due to high volumes of incoming mail. Delivery aims for Royal Mail services for Canada are normally 5-7 working day, however, International Standard and International Tracked & Signed are severely delayed, taking 3-4 weeks to be delivered. What alternative is there? If you have been posting using our Royal Mail 'Tracked and Signed service', we highly recommend you use our 'Tracked service' option which is providing much speedier processing and delivery times. Simply select the correct service and label. If you are not set up on our Tracked service, please talk to your usual Royal Mail contact who will help you with the next steps. Finally for our Customers using the Post Office to send your items, simply ask for a "Tracked service" at the counter. A note about Customs in Canada Whilst Customs clearing processing times are totally outside our control, it is worth remembering that Canada is one the countries with the lowest de-minimis of 20 Canadian Dollars (circa £11). This means that any goods equal or above that value will systematically go through a clearance process thus creating additional delays. Most of what our customers send is under DDU (Delivered Duty Unpaid) meaning that the recipient is responsible to pay any duty or taxes. Read more on our country guide page royalmail.com/canada, thank you.

If your packages ended up leaving the floor of the post office till the Monday (6th) then it became a three week wait till it got shipped. My two packages by EMS via Amiami and Manda are still at the post office as of the 29th both in posting/collecting. Most likely that they will get shipped a week/two weeks after the Golden Week Holiday.

Not my cup of tea persoanally, however it's your call. Sideshow Scott "Slim" Summers for pre-orders, two versions at $240, to be out October - December of this year Details: https://news.toyark.com/2020/04/30/marvel-comics-cyclops-sixth-scale-figure-by-sideshow-387232 Link to Sideshow: https://www.sideshow.com/collectibles/marvel-cyclops-sideshow-collectibles-100435?var=1004351

Anyone desperate for the DX SSP and can't wait for your pre-ordered one (second wave) to arrive? 12k yen (unopened, package damaged) - https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1127163959&ref=list&keyword=%E3%83%9E%E3%82%AF%E3%83%AD%E3%82%B9&lang=en

Which leaves me to the next question: Did you use EMS in the original order?

I was actually thinking the same question as well @Knight26. Unless it's the official Kidslogic versions.

Hopefully that they will upon release date. Now it's 3rd parties (Fullfilled by Amazon) that are offering the DX SSP at 11.5k yen with 5% cashless rebate as I'm in Canada.

You're good to go. From Manda's Shipping suspension list in the international front page link: United Kingdom DHL: Available EMS: Available SAL: X AIR: Available DHL is very fast 2-3 days, EMS who knows yet...

@Sandman is located in Canada. He has bought a 1/48 Yammie just this this month dated April 24th.
