David Hingtgen Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 That's my theory---there will be bundles in the future, but not necessarily the less-seen combos---like a super-packed Ozma or full-armor Alto. While super Alto and armor Ozma are very likely.

While super Alto and armor Ozma are very likely. Just out of curiosity have you ordered the super parts for either OZMA or ALTO?
Golden Arms Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 I ordered the super pack for Alto. I also believe we will see bundles down the road. It makes some sense from Bandai's perspective.
typhoon Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Yeah I agree it does make sense. Although seeing some of the recent releases being WEB exclusives or seemigly limited production runs, namely the YF-29. You have to wonder if Bandai make decisons that any of us will understand.
David Hingtgen Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Just out of curiosity have you ordered the super parts for either OZMA or ALTO? Cancelled my Ozma order due to not liking the colors for the new Ozma himself. Never did find an Alto at a reasonable price, so I'm just waiting for a bundle. (I figure Alto+super pack is the most-likely bundle of all to appear, so I'm not too worried)
sevreed Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I had to cancel my DX Ozma also due to paint concerns. They are not even including all of the correct markings on the head. Why Bandai, why?
typhoon Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Hopefully I'm not disappointed with the paint color when the "S" valk arrives, or in a few months time when the super parts arrive...... I was so impressed with the V2 Alto that I couldn't help myself and I preordered the parts, for both valks. I think they will complete the VALK in ways that the V1 just couldn't get close to. Fingers crossed!!

Fingers crossed!! I assume the paint will not change much from the most recent photos posted. So if those disappointed you, then I don't know what to tell you. Personally, I cannot wait. He's gonna look stunning next to Alto.
typhoon Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 That was more in response to the other two posts about cancelling orders. Don't get me wrong, I'm keen to get OZMA and would not even think about cancelling my order. Can't wait to rearrange the cabinet!
Graham Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 When is Ozma out? I forget, is it supposed to be the end of January? Graham
Reïvaj Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) When is Ozma out? I forget, is it supposed to be the end of January? Graham Yes, it is. It's just a couple of weeks from now... Edited January 11, 2012 by Reïvaj
kurdt_the_goat Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 It was supposed to be the end of January but i noticed the other day, my Amazon preorder is set to ship on the 14th!
ff95gj Posted January 11, 2012 Author Posted January 11, 2012 Yes, it is. It's just a couple of weeks from now... Actually, it may be here this Friday.

Graham Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Actually, it may be here this Friday. Excellent. Graham
Kelsain Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Ah, flip! Guess I shouldn't have put off my return to eBay for so long... Trying to decide if I wanted to get in on the fast pack group by, but since it ends tomorrow, I guess I'm out. Ah well. (null)
Lolicon Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 HLJ preorder is open again, but only at 5% discount now.
pud333 Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Those sneaky bastards. Ah well, it's no different than Amiami and others restocking the VF-25F at nearly full MSRP. Probably the best people are gonna be able to do.
Kyp Durron Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Damnit, this is going to make money really tight for me, I wasn't expecting this to come out for another couple of weeks. I'll be able to get it, but I really, really wished they'd waited a couple of weeks. -Kyp
Dobber Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Awesome, I was just wondering if there was firm release date yet too. Chris
Nerd-linger Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Well, with news that the rest of Yamato's Mac 7 offerings won't be out until late this year, I feel like I can splurge a little, so I pulled the trigger on an Ozma and super parts from Big bad toy store. With only 5% discount form hlj and shipping factored in, big bad is only $10 more. Plus hlj does not have the web exclusive super parts so yeah. Hope this thing is as awesome as everyone is saying.
pud333 Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Did Alto sell out already? Where have you been? It's been sold out for months.
Archer Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Hey, for those that have taken pre-orders for these kind of items before at Big Bad Toy Store, how long does it generally take for them to ship it out after the valk has been released? I know dealers like HLJ take only a day or two to get the order ready, but considering BBTS is located in the U.S., any ideas? I'm asking because there is a birthday I want to buy this item for, but am concerned of whether or not it will get there on time....
Reïvaj Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 [...] I'm asking because there is a birthday I want to buy this item for, but am concerned of whether or not it will get there on time.... Who's birthday? Yours?
miriya Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Where have you been? It's been sold out for months. I have been a little less active around here lately. I have Ozma on preorder at HLJ but I am having buyers remorse (kind of) already as I think I wanted Alto's more than Ozma's. That said I am sure ill be happy with Ozma and worst comes to worst could sell it. But since Ozma went from order stop to taking orders again I thought that maybe more of the Alto stock showed up somewhere. Wishful thinking I guess.
Lolicon Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Can't wait to get my greedy hands on one. This will be one of the few times I spring for EMS shipping.
skull_leader001 Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) it affects the price change, who pre-ordered in October? that I will buy 4 Edited January 12, 2012 by skull_leader001
Kurisama Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Just got my notice from Anime Export that Ozuma is ready to ship
Graham Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Where have you been? It's been sold out for months. Not here in HK, they're still relatively easy to find in shops here. Graham
