zzgundam010 Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 How come the ordering only opens at the middle of the night for me? Keep missing them. Hope they will be available again. Quote
SaitouSad Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 just received my 25F from AE. Despite already procuring the yf29s, the 25G and the RVF, I never quite found the time to play with them as I'm waiting for the smell in my new custom cabinet to go away. but with Alto's 25F, I just couldn't resist. dove right into doing all 3 modes with some help from the manual (which was really confusing). managed to transform it fine, though being brand new makes it a little difficult as everything is so stiff and I don't wanna break anything. im beginning to see why more people are getting multiples. transforming this can be more stressful than relaxing. but dammmnn.. ain't she a beautiful bird. can't wait to slap the armour on next Quote
Twoducks Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 I'm a bit lost right now. The F is already out? I had one preordered on otacute. Are they filling their other MF orders? Quote
Matt Random Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 I really enjoy the VF-25 transformation. It is the most fluid of any of the Frontier designs I've tried. The head can be a bit annoying, but that's it. I find the YF-29 transformation much less satisfying due to all the thin pointy bits (wings, canards, silly head horn). I don't mind the VF-171 transformation, but I don't find it that enjoyable either. Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 I'm a bit lost right now. The F is already out? I had one preordered on otacute. Are they filling their other MF orders? Preorders are shipping out as we speak for the F. I think just like RVF-25, otacute may have a delay in shipping out theirs F's. Quote
Twoducks Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 Preorders are shipping out as we speak for the F. I think just like RVF-25, otacute may have a delay in shipping out theirs F's.Ok, so they did fill all their rvf orders. Thanks! Quote
grymg Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 Anybody get a shipping confirmation from HLJ yet? Mine just says This order has begun shipment processing. Quote
Pedro2k6 Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 Anybody get a shipping confirmation from HLJ yet? Mine just says This order has begun shipment processing. Mine is in the same status. i think they gonna shipped tomorrow. Quote
anime52k8 Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 (edited) Mine's the same. it also says invoice paid as of today. :Edit: I'm not sure, but I think HLJ ships stuff out on Mondays and Wednesdays (and possibly Fridays). Edited July 23, 2013 by anime52k8 Quote
zulu Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 Question- I thought NY always gave the cheaper price once it was time to pay your pre-order. Example: I pre-ordered the VF-25F for $219 and now it's listed at $209 so shouldn't I have paid that price? Anybody else noticed this on their invoice? I'm going to send them an email to find out. Quote
neoexcaliber Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 HLJ has a sale going on (like every other time a new DX is out) so it'll take some time for them to process shipping. Quote
Graham Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 My 25F from CDJ arrived yesterday and my other one from NY is on the way. Graham Quote
Bahamutzyro Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 anyone have a vf-25f renewal they wana sell for cost? ill take it! Quote
Chronocidal Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 They tried to deliver my F a bit ago when I was at work, so tomorrow it'll be zooming around my office. Quote
Shukenzero Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 Damn! Waiting on my guy to return from holiday! Quote
skullmilitia Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 seriously, I paid for FedEx on Monday, wanting it before the weekend, and it's still not shipped. grr. Quote
Shukenzero Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 At least you're guaranteed one. Some have missed the boat. Quote
skullmilitia Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 I was sitting in traffic when I secured mine, and hate to say it, hitting the "confirm" buttons on my phone while on the entrance ramp to the free way ( kids don't text and drive, or buy Macross toys and Drive) Renewals from HLJ are serious bidness, I just happened to hit refresh at the right moment, honestly my phone was loading slow and I was screaming at it, cursing it to hell, figuring as soon as I hit purchase, I would get cart jacked. I think the only other Renewal I've been able to secure from HLJ is the VF-25A. Quote
pinkimo Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) Nin-Nin just told me their pre-orders are safe, so if you've missed everything, like me, for the 25F and 27, you still can get them there, with a not to important markup for the 27 (but twice the price of amiami for the 25F...). I don't know why they still have pre-orders opened for the 25F and 27 while they are closed for à long time on NY, perhaps they are less known for figures ? In fact I knew Nin-Nin for quite a long time for video games but didn't know they have the same kind of business than NY for figures until I saw someone telling here we can find 25F there, while we often speak about NY.

anime52k8 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Has anyone who ordered their VF-25F from HLJ while it was listed as august restock have theirs ship yet? mines been saying "This order has begun shipment processing" for several days now and my most recent account activity says "Payment for Invoice" since Monday but I've yet to receive an invoice email. Quote
Loop Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 I use a Paypal merchant setup. I got my payment e-mail and the 25F is in my private warehouse. Quote
anime52k8 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 I use a Paypal merchant setup. I got my payment e-mail and the 25F is in my private warehouse. Normally I use a Paypal billing agreement too, but this time I payed by credit card. I'm hoping that didn't screw it up. Quote
skullmilitia Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Na, they must be having issues. I paid for express so it would be here by Friday, And it hasn't left processing. I wish they could cancel shipments, at this point is rather just leave it in my Warehouse. Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Nothing from HLJ yet. I'm assuming they're going to ship out after the 3 days from the date the email was sent out requesting payment is up. That's today I guess. Quote

HLJ are very slow in shipping out orders. My last order with them took about 5 days from shipping request to actual shipment. The status even changed from "...begun shipment processing" to "being double checked..." after 4 days. They finally shipped it out after I emailed them about the delay. I can see why Graham hates using them. Quote
grymg Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 My last RVF-25 order shipped immediately. Wish they would hurry up with the VF-25F. Quote
neoexcaliber Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) I requested shipping last Saturday and the items have yet to leave the warehouse. Edit: Speak of the devil. HLJ just sent me the shipping notice. Edited July 25, 2013 by neoexcaliber Quote

I can see why Graham hates using them. I really don't mind waiting a few days for stuff to process and ship, it's mostly that I still haven't received a final invoice with shipping charge yet and I haven't seen any activity on my credit card either. I'm hopping that they're just being slow to pack the box and haven't actually figured out the shipping total yet. Quote

I'm hopping that they're just being slow to pack the box and haven't actually figured out the shipping total yet. Did you use the "Ship When Available" instead of "Private Warehouse"? I can't recall the process for the former since it's been quite a while since I last did that. With private warehouse, the shipping cost is indicated upfront when you select stored items for shipping. You pay shipping cost almost immediately after requesting it then the status changes to "...order has begun shipment processing". Quote
David Hingtgen Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 I ordered for the "Aug restock" and my situation is like above---but I've got card activity and know the exact amount charged, so I figure they're "actually getting ready to ship". Quote
TCracker Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 I requested shipping last Saturday and the items have yet to leave the warehouse. Edit: Speak of the devil. HLJ just sent me the shipping notice. All you need is the reissue VF25S renewal and your SMS Skull squadron will be complete. Quote
mgmalheiros Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 VF-25F back in stock at Amiami now! http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=TOY-RBT-3273 Quote
