You do realize that's only half a sentence, right? :p

Forgot to say "from HLJ" :D

Cancelled my one piece of DX VF-25S Pre-order from HLJ :D

Keep an eye on HLJ, for dudes looking for one!

was able to bag this.

hopefully I'll got it :)

edit:

notice there is a MISSING notice in translation. :unsure:

Bag exactly what from the search page, chyll2?

Probably this;

It's the first thing I noticed when I checked this morning, but there is a missing "polystyrene".

Cool! Y7000? That's a good cheap price. Polystyrene? Hmmm. Probably the hands, or the pilot figures, or the stand attachement for the pilot figure. Or missing some stand attachment perhaps? Either way, that's still a good buy for Y7000. ;)

I guess I was too excited earlier. I put the wrong link. Just as Kanedas stated below, it is the VF-25F priced at 7k yen with missing tray/polysterene.

thanks!

yep, that is correct. I am currently requesting pics before paying. I actually dont mind missing a tray or polystyrene, I would be so damn pissed if the valk itself was lost in translaton :wacko:

Oh no. Paying $100 after shipping and handling with a missing valk??? Hahaha! :lol: They should probably need to hire someone who knows how to speak Nihonggo properly as well. Hehehe. ^_^

Yeah, I agree with no3ljm, that's a really good buy. Hopefully whatever is missing is something minor.

Good luck chyll2!

For those who's looking and missed the reissue PO a few months ago for DX VF-25S Renewal. There's one at Jungle. Opened and classed as B for Y22680:

http://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/?page_id=121&id=959081

it was actually there for half a week now, I guess. It got there along with other "B" frontier stuff (I guess one guy decided to dump all of his collection)

Im pretty sure the folks out there are waiting what will happen in November ^_^

and yeah, there is a sealed version at 27k yen. Again, no one is biting YET.

I got the pics from mandarake, it seems like that the small styro block is missing and the box is heavily dinged is the reason for the cheaper price.

accessories and stand is there

Better pay for it it fast and release it from the styrofoam. Tampo/painted parts and styrofoam contact is definitely a no no.

good for you, chyll2! glad it worked out!

thanks. Good thing that they reply fast as well.

Wow, if that's all that's missing, that's an insane price for what you're getting. Effectively half off the retail price.

initially, I was expecting that the stand would be totally be missing since some translation tool says Tray as missing, which I dont mind, since the standard Bandai Stand is something I can live without

Better pay for it it fast and release it from the styrofoam. Tampo/painted parts and styrofoam contact is definitely a no no.

there were a total of 8 pictures, one of them shows that they do have the plastic cover for the valk as well. I just hope that they plan to use it when shipping the item.

Congrats chyll2! As what KB said, that's a deal of the year. Imagine a renewal valk cheaper than its V1 counterpart. ^_^

Hey Magnus, was that before or after the new pre-order for the VF-25S? I could see it going up after the announce of the VF-25S reissue.

Hey guys, Im planning on modifying my VF-25 V1 for that hip joint to make it swing down like the renewals. Has anyone taken theres apart to see what it looks like?

just before I was lucky :)

VF-25S will be release on 22nd Nov 2014 in Japan. I guess the long wait is almost over :)

Lol I missed that... Let me know if any of you want to sell! Hahaha

I wonder if Bandai will ever do a 25F Super bundle, in blue, and call it the "Gilliam custom"

That would be kinda cool.

...

Maybe, MAYBE, if they've done a 3rd run of renewal 25S, a 2nd run of 25G and 25A. IMO Another blue tinted 25F wouldn't entice most people after 4 runs of 25F's while the other variants are still sought after.
