  2. Agreed
  3. From my memory, no amiami does not need payment upfront
  4. I am hoping to get one too, but here being 3pm when it opens is not too bad, just hope can secure one, else its ok. A man's gotta try I guess

    I always thought the TWEs are made to order, meaning they make as much as how many were ordered, that said I did notice some TWEs selling out 1 sec after opening (freedom gundam soul blue)

    Hope they reissue the vf-31A though, or at least come out one with a different serial number
  9. Saw the missile set selling for 8480 yen in a shop at akihabara, thats almost twice the price I paid for mine

    Am in japan now, and just to let people know that they are selling the act 5 stands for about 1015yen before tax here at the tamashi nations shop in akihabara, Also found a single regult at the amiami store here going for 15k, is that a good price for it?

    That said, it will also attract the mechwarrior fans, I too waiting for it to release to get that one piece to display next to the mac monster 2 I have (don’t have a monster)
  14. I am not saying no reason, just stating how to support these kind of shops even when u have been supporting them for so long thats all, yeah humans just s**k being profitiers and all, so if i can’t get it on preorder day/night, I most like will not get it then
  15. Local shops here act like scalpers, if they get wind that an item is suddenly hard to get, they price a $300(sgd) item to suddenly $500 for no reason, and they give you the ‘ you can’t get it anywhere else reply ‘ even if you are friends with them and have been buying from them for years.
  16. I still think, whatever high demand a certain toy has, bandai will never feel it, its not them whom are jacking up prices of hard to get toys, i.e. vf-31A. To them they sold all their stock at the same price.

    Usually, you should be able to track it at your own country’s postal website after it leaves japan and hits your country, thats what I normally do.

    NY has to make back on all those VF-31As afterall
  19. Those at the bottom are aoshima 1/48 using the MB base stands as base diorama, their quality is not very good thus relegated to that, i don’t mind the wing set for the laevatein since there was a prototype for it show some years back
  20. Totally forgot about this thread until bumping into it recently, sold the old laevatein and bought the latest one and 2 gernsback to round out the squad, now hoping that the falke and amalgam AS are released

    Although I received mine from NY, the main issue I had with them was that, on my second message to them regarding the VF-31A, they basically told me that we do not know if when you will get it, if you dont like it you can get store credit, store credit that had so much caveats on them, thus, the whole experience left a bitter taste in some of our mouths, in the past for TWE items they used to only charge us when the items were near release, but when they started charging upfront for items and not delivering on time, you can understand why people were feeling antsy. If NY did not charge upfront for the item, I think a lot less people would have been pissed

    The karios had a military like scheme and for some reason a supply of it was unusually reduced even though it was a TWE item and there should have been enough of them for everyone, orders were cancelled or delayed and there was a mad scramble after that
