Yeah it's frustrating that many folks can't get their hands on these at a reasonable price. The armor parts in particular are SO expensive right now, $275-300. As others have stated it may be a good thing that these ko products are becoming available. There's obviously a market for them and hopefully it will encourage bandai et al to (re)release some highly sought after figures and accessories.

Not really 28000 on buyee. I won another YF-30 for 21500. I just need like 6 more haha jk -
Got another YF-30, I love this bird. Not crazy about the stand but the VF is cool as heck

I think everyone agrees that having access to these items is better than not. At the same time, when a retailer says an item costs x, shipping costs y, and the item is released on z. People expect the retailer to deliver on those points. And the notion that "you should be grateful just to get the item at all" is no solace to a dissatisfied customer parting with a significant sum of money. I order stuff from NY whenever I can because the items are relatively cheap and in some instances they are the only game in town. That doesn't mean folks don't have legit gripes when they are invoiced for additional monies and/or their items ship out 3, 4, 5 days after release. That being said this probably isn't the best place to complain. Most folks here are enthusiasts, and are legitimately happy just to get their hands on this stuff. As others have stated if you have other options, vote with your money and pick the items up somewhere else. Most folks here just want to enjoy the cool new toy(s) they purchased.

My order for super parts and a VF-31J are finally in process! Wooo
-
Got a couple more defomecha today
-
At least they're trying to get yours out the door. Apparently mine is being held until the original official release date *scratches head*
-
What the heck. I sent a ticket to NY asking about my super parts and they replied that they were being released on the 25th lol
-
Human size like a 1/1 vf? I think there are a couple 1/6 or similar sized vfs. One transforms and the others are statues. I can't remember where they were posted but some googling should find them.

VF-11B box and figure in excellent condition. Only displayed for a short period, 28000. -
Yeah I'm very happy nothing was damaged. The YF-21 is beautiful in fighter mode but I had to adjust some bits because the previous owner didn't put everything back quite right...and holy sh!t this thing is tricky to handle. The legs arms were quite a challenge and every time I touch it a wing, panel, or something gets moved out of place. I can't imagine actually transforming this thing to battloid and back. I'd have to set aside an afternoon lol
-
That's a funny way to spell bandai
-
Got another grail in today A BIG thanks to the USPS for leaving it out in the rain all afternoon. The YF-21 box was actually a little wet but didn't penetrate the cardboard.
-
Excellent! Thank you for the info
-
Anyone experience any customs issues with dhl? I've read they often have custom fees but never used it myself.
-
Yeah that's unfortunate for folks like me who add bits and pieces here and there. As others have noted you really don't save a significant amount of money combining shipping on moderately sized items at NY either. They just take like 5'ish % off shipping cost. Not complaining (maybe a little ha) just offering some info

YF-30 complete, transformed a few times, 21500. -
I was thinking about this too. I really like the look of the paint scheme in fighter mode without the grim reaper emblem. Cool. If I ever try to customize a 31F I may give this a shot.

Just got shipping notification for my Spartans from NY, wooo! Now we wait...*crickets*
-
I still haven't heard anything from NY; hope to get an email soon. My Spartans have been in processing since Thursday
-
Oh gosh I paid scalper prices for them so they're probably going to the grave with me lol Keep an eye on the forums, yahoo auctions, and eBay and you will score one eventually. Hopefully we will get a dx version from bandai soon!
-
Yes please. I just picked up a couple of Yamato YF-21's but I would be in for a bandai as well. Love that bird
-
Woooo thank you! Ordered
-
I'm angrier than I've ever been!!! *cancels order*

Finally got my tomahawk! Lock stock and two smoking barrels
