Scyla Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 (edited) ..and amiami still won't load for me at all. [edit:] Got the order confirmation from HLJ. Good night folks. Edited July 28, 2017 by Scyla Quote
SuperHobo Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Thank you HLJ, saving me again on preorder night. Cheapest option so far too. Woot! Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Yeah, Ami Ami got slammed. Hobby Search sold out in 30 seconds (got cart jacked). HLJ was the best option (so far). -b. Quote

F360 Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 yeah, sucks. went all the way to the final stage, and then got this and then they even sent me a email confirmation of the order, but with with the item CANCELED . BOOOOO Quote
Loop Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 I got the same during checkout, but I didn't get any e-mails. Quote
anubis20 Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Who got one at Amiami? I never got the page to load, same with NY, CDJ was sold out when i hit add to cart. I got one at HLJ and one at Amazon JP but that one is 27K Quote
Loop Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Amiami was broken for me, so I tried elsewhere, I couldn't even get it in to the cart. Quote
Shukenzero Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Amiami wasn't loading about 10 mins beforehand already. Quote

Yep, I woke up at 4:50 AM (Eastern) and the actual item page and homepage for AmiAmi were having issues. I thought that this time might make it easier for US based customers, but that was not at all my experience or what's been said here. It was the same to worse by my estimation. -b. Quote

This was horrible, probably the worst... F91 i think has been the closet in terms of bringing amiami down. Quote
F360 Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 This one made it worse for Nippon-yasan because more people are awake due to the later preorder start time Quote
anubis20 Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 The chosen prime has it in stock. Theyre legit http://www.thechosenprime.com/MetalBuild00QanT Quote

Don't think I even tried AmiAmi for my F91. Wasn't that hyped for the design which is why I'm selling my only copy from HLJ (shameless plug) in the For Sale section. But yeah, AmiAmi works out well for the HMR stuff, DX and Metal Build? Forget about it. -b. Quote
mog_kupo Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 I feel asleep half hour before it went up, I'll try to get one later but Im already fearing the high mark up, Quote
Aye Aye Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Snagged it on hlj. Honestly, they have been the best of late on getting POs out of Japan. Hobby Search has turned into a 'why bother' cart jack situation with their pretty terrible re-sign at checkout processes. Almost ditto for cdjapan, which I have benefited from cart jacking someone else after I was cart jacked during the F91 preorder. Biggest issue with hlj is finding the damn PO to begin with! I will say hlj does give you a scare in recalling the blue frame (I think) release where the server went nuts and oversold inventory, resulting in the "Thank you for your oversold order" fiasco. They have fixed it pretty well now, which allows for a bit of patience until you receive your notification email a couple minutes later. Big props to the poster who linked the preorder last night on MWF at 2:02am - I was able to cast my net out and reel in the preorder for this thing! Quote

Sold all except the one. Now just waiting for the option set. Gotta support the only non Seed and 00 release homie! Quote
Aye Aye Posted July 29, 2017 Posted July 29, 2017 Speaking of option sets how many went balls deep crazy and ordered all of the red frame option sets? It literally is the release that can't stop releasing! I got the dorky huge sword hilt/power arm set. Forgot I nabbed it and its just sitting there with the proxy. Anybody else get that thing and if so, had a chance to sit through and explore its contents? Quote

Not hyped at all. But I'm pretty sure I supported the release when I purchased it first-hand from HLJ. 21 minutes ago, anubis20 said: I got it but havent opened it... then i have Red Frame Kai coming That's the only other non-00 Metal Build that I'm interested in. I still have a MISB Blue Frame, MISB Red Frame and MISB Flight Unit but pretty much every day I debate on selling all three. Now that I've sold and shipped off the Metal Build Freedom it's the Astrays and 00's remaining in my Gundam toy collection. -b. Quote

Will be getting the Kai and another set of option parts come September. I didn't bother putting on the arms but helped a friend to put it on his, so had a fiddle with the new parts. It's decent enough but too finicky to do much with apart from leaving it in a display shelf. Lots of parts though, and there are small details like opening ports(?) on the shoulder armours, which are a nice touch. Quote
Archer Posted July 29, 2017 Posted July 29, 2017 Soooooo.... any news about when the GFFMC wing zero is gonna open for pre-orders? Sorry to divert convo away from the Quanta Quote

I actually had to PO the dang Sazabi Formania EX from them. Its random but they do get some good stuff from BlueFin I guess. Quote

no3Ljm Posted July 29, 2017 Posted July 29, 2017 I missed the PO last night coz I was too sleepy to stay late. That's two hours before it went online. Surprised to see posts regarding AmiAmi how it won't load up. How bad was it guys? Anyone succesfully put their PO in from AmiAmi? However, a good friend of mine placed an order for me so it's all good. Quote

My point is that the CR site is a pretty viable option, albeit I have had a longer wait for some releases from it. Cool they have the quan(t) for PO. Quote
Aye Aye Posted July 29, 2017 Posted July 29, 2017 The power arm set is ridiculous. Not sure where I will ever see or fit that for display. Might have to stick that one up for sale. Good lord. Quote
