LOW_ALT Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Enough with the reheated hero planes. Wheres the VF-25A release in the Macross-30 desert camo scheme?.... Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 The VF-25 G non renewal is back in stock at HLJ at least I think it's a non renewal. http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN966823 Quote
Duymon Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Lol, my boss just asked me to fill in night shift on pre-order day. How fortunate, I get to be up and on a computer during the .000001 second preorder madness. Quote

skullmilitia Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 LoL wat? the V1 ships into stock? Bandai what the hell is going on over there... release renewals NAO! Quote
Duymon Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 I might just buy the tornado michael for the tornado parts, and then put them on my michael renewal using the instructions from GBM shop. Quote
royard Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 I might just buy the tornado michael for the tornado parts, and then put them on my michael renewal using the instructions from GBM shop. ...Why? Bandai will probably release a renewal tornado pack for much cheaper than this. Quote

Graham Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 If I can, gonna try and snag me one or two more Altos. Already got my Armoured and Super Pack Alto. Just needs me a naked Alto.......... he's so pretty naked ;P Eww, that sounds so wrong! LOL Graham Quote
David Hingtgen Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 If I can, gonna try and snag me one or two more Altos. Already got my Armoured and Super Pack Alto. Could you leave some for those of us who have none? Quote

Seems quite a fair no. of HKers are looking forward to getting this as well. Not looking forward to being able to secure 1 in the middle of work tomorrow (again). Could you leave some for those of us who have none? This hahahah Quote
Phalanix Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 So... official pre-order starts in an hour? Quote
David Hingtgen Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 An hour and a day, AFAIK. Yeesh, now I'm paranoid, I was going to go to bed soon... Quote
xrentonx Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Man, it just does not end does it? I'm pretty much missing this one to complete Skull platoon. I have to get one cause I have Alto's Armor and Super pack just sitting here. Quote
Archer Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Could you leave some for those of us who have none? ++++++++1 Quote
Mommar Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 The thing is that Alto was actually the easiest to get, probably that's why Graham was able to snag two. I didn't even pre-order one. He sat around at shops for a few weeks after release before I decided to go for it. Quote

He sat around at shops for a few weeks after release before I decided to go for it. I think most of us were waiting for reviews to hit, you know after the problems the version 1 had. Quote
xrentonx Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 That's pretty much what happened in my case. I waited around for actual reviews and when the time came, it was too late. Once I started getting a little wise, I was eventually able to snag an Ozma without preordering but that was pure luck. Quote

Once I started getting a little wise, I was eventually able to snag an Ozma without preordering but that was pure luck. I actually got Alto and Ozma although I missed the pre-order. I paid a bit more than I would have liked to for the Alto, but not the super high prices I have seen on ebay and the likes. I actually got my Ozma and super parts for a decent combo price new and unopened. I'd chalk that all up to luck or just good ole plain scouring the net for a decent price. Quote
xrentonx Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Yeah, I got Ozma from HLJ at a normal price after release. I don't think I'll ever have that situation again. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 By my calculations----2AM tonight, in the Central US. Or a bit under 11 hours from now. Though I suspect HLJ won't be doing it until later, possibly days. (depends on how much weekend/Easter holiday they take off) Quote
Dark_Ghost Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 (edited) do we know already wich shops will have it for preorder?Anime Export, Amiami, Nippon Yasan, CDJapanbtw, i cant find the source for the preorder schedule.It is a rule imposed by Tamashii Nations Japan: pre-opening sales of their products can be done before updating their site and before the first of the month. Pre-sales can not begin before 04:00 pm (Japan time). This rule has long been known by collectors of Saint Cloth Myth (myself included) thanks to people who work for stores in Japan (CDJapan among others). Edited March 31, 2013 by Dark_Ghost Quote
erikos0311 Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 So where does one sign up for this? Is this a group buy? Prices? Quote
David Hingtgen Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 None of the above----you keep refreshing those websites like a madman around the time they should open their orders up, and pray you can complete the checkout process ahead of the other 10,000 people trying to do the same thing. Price will be mostly irrelevant--you'll pay whatever the site is asking for, assuming you can secure one. Real rough guess---$130 to $180, plus shipping. Quote
pikashoo Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 to anyone who has gotten a preorder within that few second window, does any of the mentioned sites require payment up front? my credit card always initially rejects international transactions and I have to complain on the phone for 10 minutes before it gets resolved. Quote
erikos0311 Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 What stores/ websites will have the renewals? Disregard last question..! Lol Quote
Duymon Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Gonna be a fun night shift for me I work at a Japanese telco in NY and we have a direct 10Gig link to Japan. Latency - free pre-ordering Quote
