DX VF-25 Renewal Series (Part III)

[Reïvaj]

It didn't last much. Sold out already.

[kyekye]

Man, with prices like that, I can wait. Ozma's the show for me anyway.

Funny how fast and how much the price changed.. It was $70 when I pre-ordered it from that place..

[ShadowRaven]

Where? I didn't see it.

[valhary]

damn it I already pre ordered mine in nippon yasan

[Chronocidal]

Thanks for the heads up, got a preorder in. Man, BBTS is going to get a chunk of change from me over the next month. Got both the YF-29 and VF-171 ordered with them.

Haha... that was actually my pre-order for the YF-29. I just dropped it last night. Decided I'd prefer to wait for an opportunity to pick up a VF-25S instead...

New YF-29 preorders showing up on eBay too but they require payment in full for delivery at the end of June/beginning of July. Is it possible this thing's gonna be more widely available after it's re-release?

Probably not. If you don't have a preorder in somewhere, or live in one of these countries where you can just walk into a store and see them on the shelf, you're probably going to be stuck with eBay.

You guys think $288 shipped for YF-29 on ebay is a decent deal?

Unfortunately, yes. Here you are a safer option for about the same money:

I jumped on that since getting Ozma for less than 300 is out of the question right now. My birthday is coming up so I can show my wife what she bought LOL

Damn, you guys convinced me and I bought the 3rd available YF-29 on Ebay leaving 1 left. Good thing I bought a Prius and am saving tons of money on gas compared to my last car...

Well, thanks then I guess though I'm not sure it was the same one. The order did open and close a couple times I think, I just happened to check at 8:30, and there was one available.

Thanks for the info. Order placed.

[pud333]

More like "Thank you for not killing the Earth as fast..."

That said, I own one too, and it's great.

[aurance]

I hate the frickin' hip armor. Again.

i just got another new ozma for 20000 yen, but i might sell this one or trade it for a renewal alto, i dont know yet let me think about it.

[Archer]

I like how Bandai just kind of dropped off the map with Yamato striking down with all their new products. Honestly though, after so much Bandai drama these past few months, it feels so refreshing seeing products I know I will be able to purchase without draining myself of sleep on online webstores....

[kanedaestes]

Got my super pack, it's awesome and i love it though one of my hip armors is loose. It has fully rejuvenated my passion for more macross toys.

[Kanedas Bike]

...wonders if I'm the only one really waiting for, or even wanting a Tornado Pack for their VF-25.

-b.

[Kurisama]

Nah dude, I'm waiting for them too. I want one for Alto's VF. Or for the 25G, u know, for the full heavy weapons feel.

[kanedaestes]

I would love a Tornado pack but after seeing what happens when you don't jump on items when they first come out I am making sure to at least get the Bandai stuff when I can while I can and they are still resonably priced.

I will trade you a Alto for that Ozma if you are interested. =)

Dang it, I should have kept my Ozma pre-order just to trade for an Alto...

It's the Valkyrie barter system. >_<

No money are being exchanged, just toys for toys. XD

Nice - love all the pictures. Although they do nothing to help my ever increasing jealousy behind not being able to order the Super or Armor Parts.

Do you know they're still available at a fairly reasonable price?

[Axelay]

Define "fairly reasonable" in terms of armor pack, please?

[Dimis]

Well it was never reasonable anyway. You wouldn't expect to find them for less than $150, when someone in Japan who ordered directly from the Tamashii shop paid $100!
