Valk-1S Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 (edited) Just like to inform you all that HLJ are having some crazy sales. 70% off the Bandai VF-1S, Yamato 1/60 Max and Hikaru VF-1A and some of the Super Banprestos. Edited October 2, 2003 by Valk-1S Quote
Sam Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 Hey, thanks mate. Got that cheap max ive been looking for!! yah! Quote
VF-19 Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 I'm pissed off at this sale... I got my Max about a month ago at 3900... Not a bad price... but still. I hate it when this happens... And no Banpresto Strikes on sale??? They must really want to make room in the warehouse. Quote
1 VF-1 2NV Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 Concerning the 1/60's, why only hikaru and max???? I want the cf to go on sale so I can buy a few. Quote
gutter Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 (edited) Wow, these prices are insane... thanks for the heads up. Edited October 2, 2003 by gutter Quote
VF-19 Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 Concerning the 1/60's, why only hikaru and max???? I want the cf to go on sale so I can buy a few. It seems that nobody loves them... But I like my Max way more than my 1J... Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that the hips haven't cracked... Quote
pfunk Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 Damn it, when are the 1/48's going for 70% off <_< Quote
Whatever_Guy Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 WOWIE!! Thanks for the info!!! Man and I was worried about spending over budget by pre-ordering the 1/48 1J Quote
nemesis120 Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 Yeah, I'm upset too that the CF isn't on sale. I like Hikaru's paint scheme but I just can't justify getting more than 1 of them. And the CF is fast-pack ready. Quote
Anubis Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 I would probably jump on it, but the shipping kicks it back up to 40 bucks anyway, so I'll just wait for my new Millia. And the CF isn't really fast pack ready. The legs have the holes, but the backpack doesn't. Unfortunately. Quote
nemesis120 Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 And the CF isn't really fast pack ready. The legs have the holes, but the backpack doesn't. Unfortunately. Hmm, I never noticed that on mine (probably because I never tried using the fast packs on it). Well, it would have wound up being the Matchbox Veritech's long lost cousin. Quote
UN Spacy Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 Whoa. I just made a couple of purchases........ TAK08230 TF Masterpiece Optimus Prime Convoy ¥9,800 ¥9,800 YMTMC-05 VF-1A Transformable Valkyrie 'Hikaru Ichijo' ¥2,340 ¥2,340 B) Quote
Uxi Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 I love my 1/60 Max. Got 2 or 3 "fire sales" ago. I just wish Yamato WOULD COMPLETE THE FAST PACK UPGRADE KITS ALREADY!!! Ok, got that out of my system. B) Quote
treatment Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 (edited) placed my order. havent ordered for awhile from hlj. not sure about their shipping. came up to 2600+g for weight on my order. we'll see if they charge me sal or ems on that. and how much. --treatment-- Edited October 2, 2003 by treatment Quote
Hurin Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 (edited) At some point a few months ago, they did have the CF 1/60s on sale. I picked up two at $26.46 each. So, maybe they'll be on sale there again some day. H Edited October 2, 2003 by Hurin Quote
kanata67 Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 decals cheap on top of your order... http://www.hlj.com/cgi-perl/hljpage.cgi?HSG65757 minmay guard strike looks real sweet http://www.hlj.com/cgi-perl/hljpage.cgi?HSG65768 photo etched decals... http://www.hlj.com/cgi-perl/hljpage.cgi?HSGQG3 I wish I had the money and skill... http://www.hlj.com/cgi-perl/hljpage.cgi?SHE007 I should check them more often Quote
rocco_77 Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 The CFs did go on sale a while back and I picked up two more. It would be cool to have them on sale again though.... I wouldn't mind having a total of 5 or so. 1/48s for 70% off.... good luck. Quote
DatterBoy Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 Is shipping still 15$ USD per item? Last time I bought from them they did not combine shipping and resulted in me paying 30$ for shipping... What's the deal with that? :Dat Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 Man I'm just waiting for the super valks to go on sale again. This time I'ma jump on four of them at least! Quote
nemesis120 Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 Man I'm just waiting for the super valks to go on sale again. This time I'ma jump on four of them at least! You aren't the only one. Although (odds are) I'll have gotten a 1990 Hi-Metal VF-1S (missing the missiles, gun and clip) for a little bit more than my reissue super. Watch and see, eventually they will have the Strike and the 1/48s on sale. It will just take a while, like it did with the 1/60 VF-1J. Quote
Guppy Posted October 3, 2003 Posted October 3, 2003 I might finally attempt to customise a 1/60.. Hey, at 20 bucks I can't go wrong! Quote
Druna Skass Posted October 3, 2003 Posted October 3, 2003 When are they going to put the VF-11 on sale. I want to put the Titans's paint job on that thing too... Quote
ZorClone Posted October 3, 2003 Posted October 3, 2003 woohoo! got a squadron of 3 lil'banpresto valks for less than $12 (before shipping), can't argue with that! I've never seen anyone post many pics of their banprestos... anyone care to share? I've never had one before now.. Quote
Druna Skass Posted October 3, 2003 Posted October 3, 2003 For the guys who got Banprestos, a little paint goes a long way in keeping the arm armor pieces on. Quote
hevangel2 Posted October 3, 2003 Posted October 3, 2003 Thanks for the news! I just got myself a 1/60 Max. Now, all I need is the Max & Mira FP, VF-1S (non-FP) and TRU to complete my 1/60 collection. Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 dude...i like ordered a 1/60 hikaru VF-1A on friday from HLJ and they said it wouldn't be processed until the 6th (over there in japan) and today i didn't see the hikaru anywhere...dude, i guess i missed out...they should've been able to process it by now...this sucks sooooo much...i hope they at least send me the other stuff i ordered...i'm just upset that i waited (even if it was just a day!) to order that stuff (i didn't have enough money in the bank either)....this just sucks!!!!!! Quote
Hurin Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 Don't know what you're so upset about. Sounds like, if you placed the order, they'll probably honor it. A lot of places hold some "emergency stock" in case something like this happens. But, more than likely, no "emergency stock" will even be needed. If you ordered it, and *then* it was removed from the site (can't see how it could be the reverse!), then it was probably your order along with a few others that finally caused them to remove the item from the site. Just because your order hasn't been "processed" doesn't mean your order isn't taken into account where their "stock-on-hand" is concerned. Then again, I could be wrong. H Quote
mslz22 Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 dude...i like ordered a 1/60 hikaru VF-1A on friday from HLJ and they said it wouldn't be processed until the 6th (over there in japan) and today i didn't see the hikaru anywhere...dude, i guess i missed out...they should've been able to process it by now...this sucks sooooo much...i hope they at least send me the other stuff i ordered...i'm just upset that i waited (even if it was just a day!) to order that stuff (i didn't have enough money in the bank either)....this just sucks!!!!!! Did you check you status on their order status page? It may be in processing, check it out, that's what happened to me with the 1/55 1s Quote
VF-19 Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 Same thing happened to me with my Max 1A back at the end of July (when it was 3900... Grr... ). I put the order in, and a few hours later, it was no longer on sale. Got real lucky then. If you put the order in while it was on sale, you should get it for the sale price. Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted October 8, 2003 Posted October 8, 2003 i've been doing to it since sunday night...all it says is that they're in the middle of processing it... IT'S NEVER TAKEN THIS LONG WITH THEM BEFORE!!! ***falls to his knees and starts crying*** i'm just paranoid right now....just so paranoid!!! Quote
redsurfer Posted October 8, 2003 Posted October 8, 2003 OMG ... all the macross stuff are actually all snap up already ... left some banpresto only. Quote
Just Gundam Posted October 11, 2003 Posted October 11, 2003 still no word from HLJ If you login to your HLJ account, you should see something like they will resume processing orders on 14th because of the holidays, and I'm sure HLJ will honor your orders, so just sit back and relax. B) Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted October 14, 2003 Posted October 14, 2003 finally got the email sayin i've been charged and it'd being shipped Quote
treatment Posted October 14, 2003 Posted October 14, 2003 I think it took them a week to send me a confirmation-email. I just dont have the tracking stuff anymore like their old ups-stuff. It's been a week since HLJ said they shipped my orders. Still waiting. Quote
