yeah I haven't bought anything since that last order that they refunded, after seeing all the stories on here :\ I thought it was going to be the go-to place to buy this stuff from. MyKombini banned me from their site after I sent a DX VF-1A back to them twice after finding out that it had the wrong leg armor part. So I pretty much have no choice but to avoid that site lol.

A member in another thread stated that they claim to be aware of mismanagement during COVID and have made efforts to make things better

Fortunately I’m one of the few that they refunded. On top of that, I forgot about the order til I saw the refund come in. Talk about luck back on topic, I’ll take a gamble and try to save money by ordering either on big in Japan or some site such as a Amiami. At the current way things are going, we are only off by about $50+/-

Hey guys, how many yen is MSRP for the armored vf-1j set including the Valkyrie? thanks

Yeah I felt that $40-$60 for FedEx for a valkyrie was pretty decent, considering that it showed up nearly right away had minimal packaging and was not damaged at all.

I can wait for 4/28. Should be good. I just don't know how many I'll buy, probably 2 if I can. I will feel very fortunate if I get 1.

I just checked AE, still isn't asking for shipping cost payment yet. :| Hopefully soon.

Ohhh okay I see that's cool. I didn't know that. I'm assuming nobody has preorders for this up yet? I'll take another look at the sites mentioned above. Thanks edit: wow big in Japan sold out of the armor. I don't see the bundled version on there however.

I'm disappointed that the VF-1J wasn't bundled. I still do not have one. This would have been a great opportunity to get it.

Thanks I'll just order a couple from here. Just placed my order.

Not much time left until PO's start. Hopefully i can get a decent price on something.

That looks great sh9000. I'm still waiting for my TV fast packs to come in the mail. Well, I guess the next round is still preorder.

Welp just a couple days left til the next pre-orders let's hope it is good

Well that and Ebay will flood with them at semi-decent prices. You can still pick up a Roy for around the $319 mark on there. I think the original TV VF-1J release is over $440.

I'm hoping this comes with a bundled TV VF-1J. That would be pretty awesome. I can't wait to see preorders.

Hello, does anyone know what shop is ST* COLLECTOYSGOU TOKYO J ? This is what appears on my bank statement for ordering a Chogokin Super Parts set. Thanks Edit: Nevermind, it must be "Big in Japan" because that's the only site besides AE that has my order. Hopefully this post helps someone in the future though

cool thanks I'll have to get some at some point, once I start saving moneys again

Indeed I would like to see a DX VF-1J Hikaru re-release as well. Aren't they suppose to do it with GBP-1 armor included?

sh9000, just curious. How many VF-1D trainers do you think you're going to buy? I think I might buy 4 or 5 if I find decent prices. I have just one on pre-order.

After searching for one for 20-25+ years, I FINALLY got myself a VT-1 Superostrich (I used to think this was "Super Ostrich" but it is actually all one word! "Superostrich" pretty cool) and man oh man it was worth the wait. I still like this as much as I ever did. The local comic book store used to have one on display from time to time as well as Max and Mirya, and some Diaclone and Transformers toys. I got my diaclone ultra magnus reissue many years ago, though I still need to find a brand new in box one (mine was brand new but I unboxed it, should have left it alone). Anyway as far as this 1/55 goes, I just used some distilled water to clean off some kind of grease that was on some of the plastic as well as cleaned off the yellowed parts. It doesn't actually look as yellowed as it did in the photos. Maybe it is the lighting in here. At least it was one side was a bit yellowed and the other side is bone white. Same with one of the booster packs. All in all, I still love the 1/55 line. It is still my favorite. My second favorite now is the Chogokin and then the Hi-Metal R. Sorry about the Yamatos guys, those just don't hold the great appeal to me but I like Yamato as well in its own way. I have a set of 1/60 V1 Yamato also. Now it looks like I should buy GBP-1 armor. I just don't know if GBP-1 armor fits on the 2000 reissue valkyries or not. And I should save up for a VE-1 Elintseeker.

Man, NY really has screwed up their reputation. Anyway, do you guys think Bandai will make the Super Ostrich and the Elint Seeker? I wish they had more announcements Also wish they didn't abruptly discontinue the HMR line

I wonder when AE is going to want their shipping money for those TV super packs I ordered. Well I'll keep my eye on my email

sh9000, I'm hunting that Raijin Express. Pretty neat car. I just bought a 1/55 Bandai VT-1 Superostrich. I've been looking for one for over 20 years.

Hikaru VF-1A v1 1/60 Yamato.. at least I just only have one valk that has yellowed so i can't really complain a whole lot. Plus I shouldn't have ever taken it out of its box to begin with.
