  1. Not sure if it was already posted, but HLJ has 4 in stock. https://www.hlj.com/dx-chogokin-yf-21-gard-gore-bowman-machine-banc655165
  2. Diligently stalking HLJ since I missed the preorder paid off, I just snagged one. It is still up. https://www.hlj.com/dx-chogokin-yf-21-gard-gore-bowman-machine-banc655165 Update: Order Stop again. Lasted over 20min which is a surprise.
  3. First unsuccessful preorder at HLJ in a long time. Had it in my cart, but for some dumb reason province was missing from my address and that was all it took, no time to update and try again. I am not sure how to feel about it... To be honest I was having trouble reconciling this being more expensive than the 1/48 VF-1J Armored Valkyrie bundle, WWM release is going to be even more expensive so this just might be the end of my Bandai Macross collecting. End of an era, but if Bandai can't be bothered to produce enough for demand then so be it.
  4. Fingers crossed ShowZ puts this up as well. I find their shipping is really reasonable and for whatever reason in my experience packages from them don't get dinged by Canadian customs.
  5. With the DX VF-1D being released I was hoping Kitzconcept would do the Hikaru fan racer suit, but not like this. The cloth may be a dealbreaker for me, I would much prefer it match the other figures in this line. Now if it has a sculpted fan racer outfit under the cloth that would be interesting.
  6. Looks like Hobby-Genki has shipped my VF-1D. A little odd though. First, according to them DHL and FedEx are the two options for Canada (still no EMS to Canada) but they just went with DHL without even checking with me. Not looking forward to the extra handling fees DHL is notorious for. Second I got two emails, one saying it was shipped and another saying it is in transit, yet when I track on the DHL site it says the label has been generated but shipment has not been handed over to DHL yet. Oh well, at least it seems like it is on it's way and Hobby-Genki did not ask for extra shipping payment which was a nice surprise.
  7. This was only the 2nd time I have used them. First time was years ago for a Figuarts K-2SO and now with the TV super parts. K-2SO was uneventful since it was an in-stock item purchase. This time it went well enough I guess. I emailed a couple times to get an update on arrival date since people were getting their super parts from other sites, but I had heard nothing from Mykombini. I only got a response once the parts were in stock and they requested an additional shipping fee. So I guess overall reliable but they may not have the best customer service when it comes to replying to emails, but again I have only used them twice so my experience is very limited.
  8. My TV super parts arrived from Mykombini today via Fedex. No additional fees or duty which was a nice surprise.
  9. LOL, I paid an extra 2500 yen to MyKombini a few days ago for what I assumed was expedited shipping for my TV super parts, but now they are asking for an additional 490 for FEDEX or DHL. At this point it is almost comical, I half expect to get another charge for packaging or a handling fee.
  10. Got a request for additional shipping payment of 2500 yen for my TV super parts from MyKombini. The international shipping situation is really starting to hurt the pocketbook. Now I just need to find a way to get NY to at least give me store credit for my first batch TV super parts that they never fulfilled. Not going to be easy since they simply don't reply to tickets or emails.
  11. I am only a couple days from the 180 day PayPal cutoff. Anyone have their super parts order shipped from NY? Heck, anyone even get their Roy shipped or is NY basically a lost cause at this point?
  12. Mine is not even "preparation in progress" let alone shipped. Could be due to the holiday, but I have mentally prepared myself for the worst.
  13. Hobby-Genki preorder is not available anymore. Says "There are not enough products in stock" which at least suggests they had an allocation. By no means a sure thing but at least a good sign. Now we just have to hope Bandai keeps up their end.
  14. I took a chance as well, the base price is good so I don't mind the higher EMS shipping. I think EMS to Canada is still suspended, but it does not come out until July so fingers crossed things change by then.
