    Hi-Metal R

    That's the one thing i like about n-y amidst their many faults. The ability to pay whenever you feel like it before release. Though i usually just wait till last minute anyway.

    Oh yeah what a morning. Totally spaced out on the preorder last night, thought it was tonight for some reason. Still managed to snag 2 a few minutes ago. AWESOME!!! That feeling of dread when you realize you missed a preorder the following night really sucks. I'm glad it worked out...whew. Then got some more good news. Saw in my email that got 2 notices from n-y about the Milia preorder - prep. in progress and shipped. Oh yeah. I wasn't expecting to get both notices in the same night before i woke up. Now to see if i get ripped off from Taku-toys. Took a risk with them for a milia preorder with 1/2 payment upfront/ Strange they haven't contacted me for the other half yet. Fingers crossed.
  3. Not in my experience. Those m7 bootlegs were poster children of what you expect a bootleg to be. Loose joints, mold fittings that are off, cheaper plastic, even cheaper stickers if they even came with any and some weird oddities. My bootleg blazer had red fire Valkyrie shoulders for some reason. Those bandai valks were not good to begin with but the bootlegs were definitely worse.
  4. Yeah i ended up choosing DHL as well. I was hoping to save some money on going with a cheaper shipping method but screw it. First time using dhl but it was a few hundred yen cheaper than ems.
  5. Got to pay for mine at amiami. Anyone use "air-small packet" for shipping? Does it have tracking and insurance? Can't find that info in amiami faqs.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Maybe Bogue's Draken will be in August. Sept seems a long time to wait to have the complete "max and mirya" of delta.
  7. I'm really hoping for a new vf-11b. It's kinda a hero valk. Isamu flew it in ep1 of plus.
  8. That looks a lot better to me than the intended way IMO.

    I'd rather the CF came before Arad and Chuck's. Never happen unfortunately. The question is will we see an Arad 31A before or after the common 31A?
  10. Back up at HLJ - Low stock. I caved and got another one

    Poor Arad. Neglected to be 4th place status in release, ahead of only Chuck (maybe?). He's sure no Ozma.
  12. Is there a English website to keep up on SOC news? I'm wondering if they ever plan to do the orginal Arcadia. Has there been any news on this?
  13. Exactly! It's a shame shows like knights of Sidonia are on Netflix and Yamato isn't. As popular as Yamato is for 40ish year anime it sure is treated like a 4th tier anime. It should be a no brainer for it be on Netflix.
  14. Seems to be quite a bit of these out there. I wonder if that's due to popularity (lack of) or bandai actually producing enough.
  15. If arcadia ever does release the M&M Valks i hope they would have the sense to not release them the same month.
  16. I agree. I don't think it's an accident that the first Kos of fast packs and max and Mirra Vf-1js. The two items that been requested consistently since Arcadia opened shop
  17. Yeah same here. Couldn't find anything.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    That is beautiful. Wow.
  19. I'm curious to see what's out there for KOs. Some Transformer KOs are really well done like MPP10. It might be a good to get ahold of rare super expensive molds that are no longer produced.
  20. Disappointing that we haven't seen any of these yet. Would've though the yf-19 would have been a no-brainer easy "repaint".
  21. I couldn't even watch this without looking the other way. Same to wreck a perfectly good system.
  22. This topic is no longer stickied for some reason. Can a mod pls sticky it again? For those people who put stickers on their yamato/arcadia toys: Do you simply just stick them on or should you use something like mark set over top of them. I want to sticker up some of my older stuff that doesn't have the un spacy kite under the cockpit but i don't want it to look like crap. Thanks in advance.

    Hi-Metal R

    Yeah typo. Actually shipping was 6,740 JPY .
  24. Sandman

    Hi-Metal R

    Whoa shipping was over 67 000 yen for the monster. Was this what most people paid for shipping to NA?
  25. Sandman

    Hi-Metal R

    The monster is for sale at amiami for 15800yen. Finally picked one up. I was tempted to combine my order with the 262 but I wasn't sure how that works. Do I pay when all items are ready to ship?
