Did you arrange those parts on the runners or is it the program that does it automatically?
-
Ouch! 8200¥ shipping estimate via EMS for 2.
-
You know what they say " A PO a day keeps your $$$ away ". 2 valks via Fedex would probably be the same 4700yen. One thing I find interesting about Fedex shipping is the shipping routes. I had to wait an extra 2 days because the package went to the hub here, then the mainland, then back here to the warehouse then out for delivery. I guess they do that for efficiency?
-
If it helps I ordered 2 0A's , a Vilikiss, 5 different modeling tweezers and tools, and the VF-22 Master files book and the shipping via fedex was 5370yen.
-
Hmm, I forgot about that. I ordered one 0A and it was 2800yen via Fedex. So NY and BIJ is almost comparable pricing wise.
-
Their shipping prices are pricey though. The 0S was 15% off I believe. But the shipping prices via EMS wasn't worth it for me. I think it was 6800yen for 2 via EMS.

It's still 27K, which was the tentative price from Arcadia. It's just a matter of which online retailers, if any, will give a discount. Going by HLJ and the preorder discount reduction from the 0-A to the 0-S I'm guessing maybe a 5% discount (not including tax added) might be the most we'll see from anyone, if that. Edit: Unless Big in Japan or Nippon Yasan pulls some kinda magic strings.
-
Amiami usually includes the Japan domestic tax then the discount. That's the way they do it, I'm just the messenger. Plus Arcadia's site says tentatively 27K so maybe it can change?
-
Shattered hopes and dreams. Nah, there are some cases of the hip joint becoming loose from the socket and maybe some paint scratching in certain areas and the usually tight feet and leg tabs.
-
I meant that in jest, but it sucks that the labor costs leads to cuts in what Arcadia can do.
-
They have the money. They're just not paying the workers to put on the decals that folks want. I think they're gonna do a ghost set down the line even though the originals were shelf warmers. Maybe with tweaked styling/proportions and shallower panel lines and different color shading. Wait, I just described the VF-0 series.
-
I'm guessing 100pcs only? How many SDF-1's was re-released?
-
So it's about the same asking price as when the Yamato one was released but due to the current exchange rate (for US folks) it's turns out to be cheaper than the Yamato version. Hopefully it can bring in folks who missed the first one.
-
Yes! Gotta figure out how much to get. Thanks for the heads up! Now to figure out how to afford them! I hope this release helps Arcadia out for future releases.
-
I was gonna ask to post the pic of the drone on the yetistand but you already have it in the Isamu bike thread.
-
Mass production? Masterpiece? Marker project? Mud pie? Edit: Fixed it
-
Or this?: Just kidding Posable figuarts of all the Macross characters would be awesome though! Looks like there will be a 3d holo projection featuring Sheryl and Ranka maybe that's what that's about.
-
He's looking for the VF-0D which has been discontinued, not the VF-0A though thanks for the link.
-
Humongous!
-
Looks awesome!

Didn't know that till I found this pic from valkyrie addict. Now I know -
You said stand adapter earlier so that's covered. Unless you wanna throw in a 1/60 Sharon Apple?
-
Thanks for the quick summary locidm! I just finished reading a Google translated version of that page which is basically what locidm posted plus wings can pivot up/down? And they know that the way the arms and legs look in fighter are distorted and are working on it.
-
So you did get the Glowforge. Good for you. Did you get the commercial version? Now we know who to go to for Macross engraved coasters!
-
Wow very nice! You and Macross Junkie are the only guys I seen with the grey painted parts.
