  1. Way too expensive considering what the same mold cost a few months ago. For that price I'd expect fast packs included. Matching after market value is no excuse to raise the price. Otherwise bandai might as well increase the price of their DX line to match NY prices.
  2. Anyone seen this: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/80s-Gakken-Lansay-Mospeada-Blue-Legioss-Tread-Robotech-Beta-Alpha-Macross-/400489340321 i wasn't aware of a gakken trend.
  3. The amount of the markup doesn't matter. It's the fact there is a markup on toy that hasn't been released yet. Yeah there's going to be people who pay anyway (myself included) but don't expect us to be happy about it.
  4. So you're only using the one connection point. How stable is it?
  5. Technically it's currently cheaper thanks to the yen being so low. I'm locked in at 247 but now it's 243. I was so frantic to get the preorder i didn't want to risk changing the currency. Plus when i pay with paypal it won't take it out of my paypal balence if it's yen, it'll directly take it from my bank account which is annoying.
  6. i generally see them for around $80-$90 without FP if you know where to look and you're not relying on ebay (stupidest place to buy IMO). I'm curious to know who these people are that are buying v1s for $130-150? The Micheal and Luca i can see as they come with the FP.
  7. I remember snagging an alto yf-29 preorder from them before anyone knew about them. Found them using a random google search after missing everyone else's preorders. I was taking a huge risk when i paid for it as no one seemed to have heard of them. Risk paid off though. Good service and they always repy to emails quickly. Was never able to secure any other preorder through them since. Still sad to see them go.
  8. Aw man that's forever from now.
  9. Wow. Never noticed that before.
  10. What kind of glue is good to use?. I have to fix the shoulder panels on my 1/60 roy. Had to pry them apart in order to replace the cracked hinge.
  11. No now its says delivered but this is the first time i checked since i got them. It was still saying in osaka about an hour before they got dropped off at my door.
  12. Mine showed up yesterday. Awesome that almost never happens. I usually come home friday evening to see a failure to deliver notice and have to pick it up on Monday. This was totally unexpected since both my tracking numbers don't shop any updates since May 2nd. Opened all 3 to make sure i'm not missing a nipple cannon like my alto version was. Luckily all are intact.
  13. damn i watch that site every day i never saw those except for the kakizaki.
  14. probably one of mine. Still haven't seen mine since being shipped before May 1st.
  15. How are you knowing that the preorder is going up 5 minutes before it does?
  16. Never do business with friends or family.
  17. Whew. Thanks for the help guys. I can finally go and crash now.
  18. Yeah. Accidently got 2 now so i owe like 534 dollars. When i clicked preorder it added another to one i had in there. I went too fast so i didn't notice it till i got to the next screen. At that point i wasn't going back to correct it in case i missed out again.
  19. Yeah the sad thing is, it was already in my cart from the last time so all i had to do was hit preorder and it still wasn't fast enough.
  20. Didn't even notice that it went up in price to $246. Probably go up to $300 before i can land one. Yay!(sarcasm)
  21. wow. My notification came right after my cart got denied again. Lovely.
  22. The problem was there was no way I could've done anything humanly faster there. Doesn't give me much hope for the future. Don't really want to be on call for the next 4 months trying to get one of these. Frustrating.
