You mean Bi-pedal, Gorilla and Fly?? Edit: Or Mass shifting into another gelatinous form like a protozoa/amoeba/paramecium?

The only thing that is to be release this year is the re-issue of non-PF VF-1J with the GBP in August/September (hopefully barring delays) If Arcadia can pull a rabbit out from the hat, it's either the VF-0 (which ones exactly, I can't tell) or the PF VF-4G. Everything is pushed back for next year. I'm waiting for Nora's 51 and the Yammie version can stay in valk mode.

Highest price for the DX 1s Hikaru is 32k yen (unopened, package damaged) and still available at 26k and 28k yen. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1134181918&ref=list&dispCount=240&keyword=%E3%83%9E%E3%82%AF%E3%83%AD%E3%82%B9&lang=en For us that got the Hikaru's DX 1s, concider us very fortunate to get one before the prices go totally insane later on. As for Roy's release, will see how it goes once the floodgates open upon release date.

Package from DHL via Manda is on the way, will post in the correct thread once received.

Don't you have other hobbies? Getting your valks with a long delay is not the end of the world. Isolation might be longer if a second wave is reported. I know that people are whining about when can they get back to their pre-virus way of life, however it's not certain when and how long when this will be over completely.

@Sandman - Did you get this first release (from Collection DX's blog)? https://www.collectiondx.com/news_item/122214/arcadia_160_scale_vf1j_armored_valkyrie If so then that must explain why you didn't get the Grey Goggle version.

Since that a fair chunk of us here are waiting for the PF edition of the VF-1J with the GBP, what is the guestimate price that it should go for? Nearly double the price for this version at 42k yen or around 35k - 38k yen?

NY has the pre-order up. https://www.nippon-yasan.com/figures/30865-macross-vf-1j-armored-valkyrie-ichijou-hikaru-type-reissue.html

Suspend your shipping til the whole mess is over. Edit: Even if you change it right now, EMS is delayed and DHL shipping from NY will cost you a fortune or your first born kid. SAL is not even an option as per Japanpost.

I'm also in that same boat and as for others that are waiting for the PF version.

I still have the Yammie V.2 version (Rainbow Canopy) and the busted two shoulder joints with the Shapeways replacement parts not installed. Which interns reminds me of this posted in June 11/2018 by Geekz (see pic below). So Arcadia has took more than two years to re-issue this! What's with HLJ's pricing at $22,610 USD?? That's majorly F****ed up pricing!! (I know it's a glitch)

Sorry... Your crap out of luck most likely. If EMS: It's going to be a very long time before it gets sent out. SAL: Not going to touch it. Only DHL and providing that you followed what I did at the top this page.

Guess what's up on Toyark? Tony Bacala has done a mini review in the Fext Dios. https://news.toyark.com/2020/04/03/fext-system-modular-diorama-sets-from-fext-hobby-384055 Did you do some enabling to Tony @Saburo to pick up a few sets?

Ugh!! Jungle has another copy of the DX 1s Hikaru for grabs at 29.7k yen (sealed) and they have posted the Japanpost suspension warning on their international front page. https://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/products/detail/398847

Update on the shipping on my side of things. Manda has upgraded my shipping from EMS to DHL after I sent them a email (last night) about changing the method used due to the Suspension Notice and mentioned that I have not made the confirmation yet and will pay the difference (within 12 hours). Here's the final result as follows: ------------------------------------------------------------ Subtotal: 16,000 yen Shipping Fee: 4,350 yen ------------------------------------------------------------ Grand Total: 20,350 yen ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ Shipping Method: DHL EXPRESS WORLDWIDE The order will be sent in 1 box(es). ------------------------------------------------------------ So that means from a 3,700 yen via EMS shipping to 4,350 yen DHL shipping, I'm taking no chances however I'll be nabbed with Customs when it reaches into Canadian soil. Hopefully that you can get the HMR Regult when this whole worldwide situation is over @DYRL VF-1S. Edit: Payment made to Manda and received the email via PP.

You're in the safety zone @jenius as your located in the States as Manda has stopped SAL indefinitely (see Japanpost's PFD in regrards to shipping restrictions). The other question is: Who knows if your stuff from NY has ever shipped at all before this situation unfolded?

Your better off using DHL as EMS will take forever to mail out due to delays and SAL is a no go providing that your not within the "Suspended Country" list.

Another DX Hikaru 1s for 26k yen at Complex (opened, package damaged) https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1128769927&ref=doc&keyword=マクロス&lang=en Edit: Changed a few things

Arkham Harley details on Toyark (now updated with pricing and pre-orders) https://news.toyark.com/2020/04/02/batman-arkham-knight-harley-quinn-figure-by-hot-toys-385822 To be released Q2/Q3 of 2021, $266 USD and pre-orders up on Sideshow https://www.sideshow.com/collectibles/dc-comics-harley-quinn-hot-toys-906232

DHL in my mind is that the package/item that you send out has to be at the customer's hand within a few days (2 to 3 days) barring Customs if your country has it. EMS takes at least a week before you get it.

Has anyone here emailed Manda and requested the shipping to be changed from EMS to DHL (providing that you haven't made the payment yet and not in the Suspend Restriction Zone)?

I know that shipping to where ever you are is a go ahead (however delayed via EMS) or you want to try DHL, Mirage's Supers is up for grabs. For 12k yen (Item A, Box B) on Amiami - https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-038852-R

Hayao was done in for the Hi-Metal line only. Unknown if he will get the upgrade into the HMR line up.
