Phalanix Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 do you guys have a favorite?? i think im gonna stick with amiami, HLJ, NY... Yup, these are usually my top picks. Quote
mechaninac Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Good luck with AmiAmi; they've sold out of their stock of every renewal and recent Frontier related DXs since the Ozma's debut within what appears to be nanoseconds of the listings going active. I'd keep a lookout of CDJapan, Otacute, N-Y, Hobby Search, and AE (just keep in mind that AE requires payment up-front with shipping charged once item is in stock). To all of you planning to stalk all etailers for the chance to aquire a VF-25F renewal re-release, good hunting! I'll join you all once the VF-25S re-release goes live. Quote
Loop Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I thought I had heard on previous Bandai DX pre-orders CD-Japan screwed some people, am I correct? Quote

LOL Well, not really, they put up a little notice at the bottom: *Pre-order will open from 16:00 3rd April (Japan time).*This item is limited to 1 per customer. (Limit includes all AmiAmi stores and previous orders.) Duplicate orders will be canceled. Get your F5 key ready at 1600 Japan time! Edited April 3, 2013 by Phalanix Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I'm going to keep my iPhones email up.If anyone could message me here that the pre orders are up that would be great Quote
erikos0311 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) what does the F5 Key do for you guys?? I have a Mac Desktop! lol oh, wait, I DO have an F5 key!!!! Refresh maybe?? Edited April 3, 2013 by erikos0311 Quote
Duymon Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Ruh Roh, link is up and on sale soon.

Edi Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I don't think I can make it till midnight to see if I can squeeze into their nanosecond bidding war. At this point I'm going to shoot for NY as I've done for the past ones, with either retail pricing or a little bit of markup, at least I'll be able to rest up for another crazy day at work tomorrow. lol Quote
Phalanix Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I do like the fact that at least AmiAmi is giving buyers a notice of when they're going to open the pre-order. Don't have to sit in front of the computer all night waiting. Quote

Duymon Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Who cares I'm on night shift. Got all the major sites logged in and auto refreshing on the big screen Quote
erikos0311 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Who cares I'm on night shift. Got all the major sites logged in and auto refreshing on the big screen how you get your computer on auto refresh?!?!? I am sooo behind when it comes to tech stuff!! lol Thats why i got a mac desktop, cause the easier the computer is, the better! Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Where do you guys think I might be able to get it the cheapest if I Live in Southern California? As in all together with shipping Edited April 3, 2013 by VF-Zer0S Quote
jenius Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Cheapest? CHEAPEST? You think THAT is the question? "Hey guys, where do I have a snowball's chance in hell of being able to secure a preorder?" Start there. Edited April 3, 2013 by jenius Quote
David Hingtgen Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Pretty much. Price isn't an issue here. You desperately pray you can get one for less than 50% above MSRP. Consider anything cheaper than that a flawless victory. Quote
SaitouSad Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 They speak the truth.. I missed the boat (got into the game too late) on the previous release, now I'm desperately trying to get a VF-25F, and down the road an S.With a meeting scheduled for around the same time, I doubt I'd be able to secure one at all (i tried watching the RVF renewal reissue last round just to weigh my chances, and I didn't even get to see it open before it was closed immediately.)Tell you what Bandai, just release as many as possible, and we'll gobble up your super and armor packs :X Please? Quote
Arrowyn Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I may have to pounce on this one, although I am intensely curious if and when they might re-release the 25G. I can still tentatively find super or armorpacks, but only for the S and F. So..how bad would Alto's superpack (not to be confused with "superPAC") look on Mikhail's rig? Quote

Start there. lol haaa haa!! thats awesome!!! well, i feel pretty lucky tonight, so hopefully i can snag my first Bandai!! Quote
Chronocidal Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I may have to pounce on this one, although I am intensely curious if and when they might re-release the 25G. I can still tentatively find super or armorpacks, but only for the S and F. So..how bad would Alto's superpack (not to be confused with "superPAC") look on Mikhail's rig? Not bad I'd assume. They're mostly the same color scheme, except for a few panels being reversed white/blue instead of red/white. If you actually took the time to repaint the colored panels, the only difference would be the 007 markings being wrong for Michael's plane. Quote
skullmilitia Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 You guys have been confusing the crap out of me, 1600 JST is 4pm, which is 12AM MST, 11PM PST. It's currently 2:31 pm in Japan, so preorder status in 1.5 hours, not 3-4am lol. Quote

Chronocidal Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Yeah, according to my computer, that's an hour off since daylight savings went back into effect. I've got a second clock set on Tokyo time. Edited April 3, 2013 by Chronocidal Quote
NoodlesOodles Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 It's 11PM Pacific Daylight Time right now on left coast USA. Quote
UN Spacy Posted April 3, 2013 Author Posted April 3, 2013 Amiami already slowing down...get ready folks. Quote
xrentonx Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I noticed Amiami started lagging right at 11pm PST. Other people jumped the gun besides me Quote
Duymon Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Ami-Ami is getting slower and slower on the reload lol Quote
UN Spacy Posted April 3, 2013 Author Posted April 3, 2013 STOP IT GUYS! I want three more VF-25F's. Quote
NoodlesOodles Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I expect this will not end well for most of us. I have one coming in I paid an exorbitant price, but it will be worth it if I fail this morning. Quote
xrentonx Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Oh, yeah. I'm totally gonna miss the Amiami preorder as usual but it'll all work out in the end Quote
Chronocidal Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Want to seriously speed up reloading AmiAmi? Go into your internet options and turn off images. They really bog down the site from loading, and you'll still know when it goes on sale from the alt-text that appears in the space where the "add to cart" button is. Quote
miro79 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 i cannot believe i'm wasting my precious sleep for a toy...again! Quote
SaitouSad Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 at least many of you guys have the luxury of camping from home.. Those of us on the other side of the globe have to camp @ work! hahaha Quote
