Loop Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 So does NY but I haven't even received a "preparation in progress" email. Anyone who ordered from NY receive a shipping notice yet? I just got my- E-mail from NY about 2 minutes ago stating "preparation in progress". Quote
Loop Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 LOL, on the same page... regarding the parts Quote
mechaninac Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Since I bundled my 25G Super Parts shipping with the yet-to-be-released RVF ones, I'll have to wait awhile before my stuff ships from N-Y... not a big deal as I'm not in any hurry, and having them ship together saves me money, but being forced to pay for the latter because the former has been released was a bit of a bother. Quote
Chronocidal Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Actually, I'm not sure shipping things together from NY changes the price at all, unless they send you a rebate after the fact. Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 It doesn't save you money at all. Your total for shipping comes out to the same if you ordered separately which is why I do my ordering that way. What sucks though, is that even though this is the case, they won't ship the preorder which is released first even if you ask them to. It is stated in their FAQs though. Quote
Loop Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Yes, I ran in to the shipping problem a while a go. I ended order 3x 171's from them and asked to combine and they said no. I cancelled the order then added 3x to cart and also saved money as they lowered the price lol. was able to get them all in the same box. Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 My grand total for shipping the VF-171 CF and YF-29 anniversary came to $88 via FedEx. Ouch! Quote
Chronocidal Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Yeah, don't ever use FedEx from NY. They're over twice as much as HLJ for the exact same item. Quote
skullmilitia Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 HLJ calculated based on zip code and residential/Business. NY just does it by country and weight. I ship my HLJ stuff to a business address and it's unfathomably cheap. I mean 40$ for a box the size of a mini-fridge. In 3 days no less. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) Just got the "preparation in progress" email from NY for the 25G Super Partszi just brought a 25g set of supers from mandarake... it was 6000yen... maybe i shouldn't have... it was an impulse buy. where are the tornado's. Update: shipping was 1380 yen sal 7380 total... I guess the impulse buy didnt hurt as much Edited October 29, 2013 by davidwhangchoi Quote
locidm Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Just got 25A. I think out of the five VF-25 released the 25A is my favorite. The color rocks and I've always like its head sculpt the best. Don't need super parts for it though. Looks good as is! Quote
Shukenzero Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Anyone else bundle their G and RVF super parts together? Won't be getting mine til next month... Quote
SaitouSad Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Anyone else bundle their G and RVF super parts together? Won't be getting mine til next month... I did too. I even have 2 RVF Parts to go along with. All that payment in advance and nothing to show for it till much later on. Kinda makes me think I should just cut down my Valks purchase, stop buying spares... Hopefully the 25S and YF-30 will be the last ones I pick up duplicates for. Quote
KH355hamdi Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) Processing order as well. Can't wait! Edited October 29, 2013 by KH355hamdi Quote
mechaninac Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Anyone else bundle their G and RVF super parts together? Won't be getting mine til next month... As I wrote in my last post, I did so as well; ordered them at the same time and combined the shipping (SAL) as it may save me a couple of bucks... I can wait. Quote

Sandman Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Gunmetal colored gunpod is brilliant... why did Bandai not go this rout with all renewals (I'm aware Ozma's shares the dark colored gun)? The purple stick of the F and RVF is so crappy looking by comparison. Yeah i agree. The gunpod looks amazing. Sad that mine broke. I seriously would rather all the other 25s have this gunpod regardless if it's anime accurate. Quote
TCracker Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 just hit me...would be great if Bandai can issue a 25A with NUNS markings.. Quote
skullmilitia Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 25A is definately my favorite 25 now, sorry Ozma. Quote
Shukenzero Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 I'm gonna get another set of rvf parts cos I caved and got a second Luca...can't wait for all the g super part pics Quote
close313 Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 I was toying with the idea whether i should just get the G or A Super parts for my RVF and just repaint it. Being the most different among the 25's has anyone tried to fit the SSP of F or S or even the newly released G on the RVF? I dont really care for the ghost(they're awesome in the show, but doesnt seem to be more than display pieces as a toy) and want to save half the amount. Quote
Scyla Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 I said it before the crucial part of the Super Parts are not the color code but the unit number painted on the leg armor panels. The other Super Parts should fit the RVF-25. I'd imagine that the only problematic piece would be the missile pods on the shoulders and the backpack armor but if I remember correctly the radar dish is in a position where it's not in the way of these parts. However I've never tried it personally because I got the Super Parts ordered and payed already. Maybe you can find someone who is only interested in the Ghost-drones and not the Super Parts who is willing to sell the parts to you. Quote
Dobber Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 Have been strongly considering getting a 25A but CDJ hasn't actually had it in stock...it is pre-order only with availability in 1-2 days. Are they still safe to order from? Chris Quote

YF-29 Durandal Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 (edited) Have been strongly considering getting a 25A but CDJ hasn't actually had it in stock...it is pre-order only with availability in 1-2 days. Are they still safe to order from? Chris CD Japan were selling VF-25A's at a 20% discount so not surprisingly they must have sold out by now. 11,200 JPY and you can still add to cart. http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/goods/goods_detail.html?KEY=NEOGDS-90706 Edited October 30, 2013 by YF-29 Durandal Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 Just an FYI - I ordered a 25A from CD Japan, my first ever order with them and it shipped out in under 2 days (ordered this past Sun @ 1 am, shipped Monday @ 6 am). It's the fastest order I've had in and out. -b. Quote
Kyp Durron Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 just hit me...would be great if Bandai can issue a 25A with NUNS markings.. Thought the same thing myself, many repaints could be done using the Master File book. 25A is definately my favorite 25 now, sorry Ozma. Glad I'm not the only one who feels that way. Have been strongly considering getting a 25A but CDJ hasn't actually had it in stock...it is pre-order only with availability in 1-2 days. Are they still safe to order from?

Dobber Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Lol! Awww hell, just pulled the trigger with cdJapan. Gulp! Chris Quote
Loop Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Has anyone here had there NY 25-G super parts actually ship yet? Mine went to preparing pretty fast, but I have not seen a shipping notice yet. Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Has anyone here had there NY 25-G super parts actually ship yet? Mine went to preparing pretty fast, but I have not seen a shipping notice yet. I was about to ask the same thing. Still in preparation in progress status. Quote
Loop Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 I was about to ask the same thing. Still in preparation in progress status. Yeah you would think they are preparing to prepare lol. Quote
mechaninac Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 They charged me 1900 Yen SAL... good thing I had 300 Yen in points so the shipping ended up being only 20 Yen more than what HS or HLJ would be. Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Has anyone here had there NY 25-G super parts actually ship yet? Mine went to preparing pretty fast, but I have not seen a shipping notice yet. Mine is still preparing as well. They take an awfully long time to prepare these days, it seems. Quote
neoexcaliber Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Mine is still preparing as well. They take an awfully long time to prepare these days, it seems. Same here. I'm getting tired of dealing with them but they have the cheapest web exclusives around. I hope my item doesn't end up in the wrong country again. Quote
