Chowser Posted December 16, 2003 Posted December 16, 2003 got my book and model yesterday (I live in Ohio). This book is amazing! Thanks again Rob! Can't wait for March! Quote
Erik Posted December 16, 2003 Posted December 16, 2003 Not sure how to do this Monkey Nuget, please put me down as an order for one set covers.

Draykov Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 (edited) I don't think this has been provided yet. I found the clear FAST packs on the Yamato site (though the pictures are pretty much the same as the ones in Graham's thread: Clear FAST packs Edited December 19, 2003 by Draykov Quote
robokochan Posted December 20, 2003 Author Posted December 20, 2003 I don't think this has been provided yet. I found the clear FAST packs on the Yamato site (though the pictures are pretty much the same as the ones in Graham's thread:Clear FAST packs They will be released in March 2004. Yamato is only making the ordered amount. So after they recieve all the orders by their deadline they will start producing them. That is why we have to wait until March. I will have a few extra sets that I will be able to offer in March...so ifg you missed out on this then there is still a chance you can get them. I will be updating the first post as I get information. Thank you to everyone who supported me in this and placed an order. Rob Quote
robokochan Posted December 22, 2003 Author Posted December 22, 2003 Can I still order this? Sorry not at this time. I did order a few extra sets that I will be offering in march when they arrive. Rob Quote
VF-18S Hornet Posted January 31, 2004 Posted January 31, 2004 What do you mean by clear fast packs. I clicked on the website you placed in your thread but it's no longer there. do you have any pictures? Quote
VF-18S Hornet Posted January 31, 2004 Posted January 31, 2004 Never mind I found out what they are, should have read the entire thread. Quote
MrDisco Posted February 6, 2004 Posted February 6, 2004 wow. this is what i get for not visiting the toy forum in over 3 months lol. oh well hopefully i can get a set. Quote
min Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 is there an exact release date for these yet? march is coming up soon! also, did yamato ever send out confirmations of orders placed? one funny thing, i got a letter in the mail from yamato this week. i thought it was a confirmation for the fast packs but instead it was an order form for just the helmets saying that its still not too late to purchase the helmets. so.....if anyone still wants one. heh. btw, did anyone from macrossworld order these helmets? there's got to be somebody. i wanna know! Quote
robokochan Posted February 27, 2004 Author Posted February 27, 2004 Yep they are do out next month. Yamato did confirm the payment that was sent to them, but to my knowledge did not send us an exact date. As soon as I get them in I will be notifying everyone on the list with shipping to your area. As soon as i know I will post it here. Rob Quote
vf1_soulja Posted March 1, 2004 Posted March 1, 2004 Great news... I almost forgot I placed an order for them. Quote
tsuyoshi1 Posted March 15, 2004 Posted March 15, 2004 I too would like to order a set if there are xtra's. Thanks! Quote
Eternal_D Posted March 23, 2004 Posted March 23, 2004 what's going on with this? any news from yamato or something? not pushing you or anything but just curious, i know you're busy starting up your thing again and teaching those noisy noisy kids Quote
Myersjessee Posted March 23, 2004 Posted March 23, 2004 I would imagine, like everything else from Yamato lately, they got a little delayed. Quote
Mechamaniac Posted March 23, 2004 Posted March 23, 2004 I would imagine, like everything else from Yamato lately, they got a little delayed. Yeah, because we all know that to pour clear plastic into molds as opposed to grey or green plastic takes tons of re-tooling, and R&D time. If these get delayed there will be no excuse that Yamato can offer other than just plain apathy. Quote

Not saying that you are wrong Mech, but didn't we hear that Yamato recently switched and/or moved factories? If that information was indeed true, it may explain some of the delays... Just a thought.

robokochan Posted March 24, 2004 Author Posted March 24, 2004 I haven't gotten them yet. But I have also not recieved any delay notices. So they should be here this month. Knowing yamato it will probably be the last day of the month . As soon as I get them in I will post it here and send everyone a PM. Rob MN Quote

Melissa It's all good Melissa, I hadn't heard that Yamato moved or may have moved. I was just jabbing at them since a delay on this product would be ridiculous given it's simplicity. IIRC, didn't they show a picture of the packaging way back when, and it was pretty much a clear plastic bag with a card stapled over the top?. Even more reason why there should be no delays, but ultimately, we are at their mercy. As Rob said, he will probably get them on the 31st. Quote
trueblueeyes Posted March 24, 2004 Posted March 24, 2004 I know it will be nice to get that little card saying I have a package from Rob at the PO! Hopefully we don't drive our favorite Monkey crazy mailing all of them out when he gets them. ... ...And I love your sig BTW! Quote
min Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 i just received a huge box from yamato with the macross logo on it. im not gonna open it until the relatives leaves sunday but im sure its what we've all been waiting for. Quote

Sweet!. So, I guess they weren't delayed, they just followed the normal Yamato schedule. March release means the very last possible day of March Quote
robokochan Posted April 2, 2004 Author Posted April 2, 2004 Hello All, They probably came in yesterday. I will be going to the toy shop today to see. Once I do I will post here the shipping totals. Rob MN Quote
TheFrenchOne Posted April 3, 2004 Posted April 3, 2004 Hello All,They probably came in yesterday. I will be going to the toy shop today to see. Once I do I will post here the shipping totals. Rob MN GREAT !! Quote
valkyrietestpilot Posted April 3, 2004 Posted April 3, 2004 man,this is great!!! i'd forgotten about these & now i'm even more excited to see these babies on a 1/48. thanks again rob for doing this for all the brothas & sistas here Quote
min Posted April 4, 2004 Posted April 4, 2004 a little update and apology. sorry for jumping the gun but the package i got wasnt the clear fast packs. it was from yamato, macross, definately pretty cool but not the fast packs. im sure those will be coming soon. Quote
Shawn Posted April 6, 2004 Posted April 6, 2004 Haven't heard a definitive date on the Clear Fast packs yet (we are trying), but apparently the Macross DYRL Helmets have finally been shipped S Quote
robokochan Posted April 6, 2004 Author Posted April 6, 2004 (edited) Hello All, Called Yamato and asked what was up. The project was delayed. They will arrive to me by the end of the month. The date they gave me was April 30th. Apology for the delay. Rob MN (Edited for boldness) Edited April 6, 2004 by Monkey-N Quote
trueblueeyes Posted April 6, 2004 Posted April 6, 2004 Haven't heard a definitive date on the Clear Fast packs yet (we are trying), but apparently the Macross DYRL Helmets have finally been shipped S I didn't have the money to get one of the helmets when the initial order came up but I do now. (the tax man has been somewhat kinder this year ) I know that Yamato only made a certain amount of them though... so I am wondering if it will be possible to get one of the helmets now?!? Anybody have any leads? Thanks, Melissa Quote
min Posted April 7, 2004 Posted April 7, 2004 picture of the package received from yamato. notice the macross kite on the side. thats a nice touch. love the spellng also. Quote
