HLJ Sale.....again.....the usual stuff

[Loop]

Unfortunately, I think what I want won't be available anymore.......or hasn't been available for a while now.........the CF SV-51 alpha.

Chris

I had the hardest time 2 years ago finding a CF SV-51 alpha. I got a good deal too when I found it fortunately, even though it was gone everywhere.

[Dobber]

Where did you end up getting yours? Ebay, a seller here or something? Best price i can find, atm, is about $265 shipped.

Phew, my order finally cleared customs. HLJ replied to my email asking about it as well, and it appears they were able to clear it up easily enough. Score one more for their customer service.

[mechaninac]

Glad to read everything has been resolved satisfactorily, if a bit delayed; it's heartening to know that HLJ's customer support is on the ball. I just got a shipping payment request from HLJ myself, paid it, and now the waiting for the shipping notification email begins...

[Dobber]

STILL WAITING for my shipping notification from HLJ! Paid for the shipping 3 days ago.

[sharpnel]

Got my shippig notification from HLJ yesterday. Let the waiting begin.....

[Stark1975]

My order with the VF-17S and another 1A made it through last Friday without a hitch, but I did get a call from FedEx asking about the two freebies that didn't have a declaration of price on them. We'll have to feedback to HLJ that the next time they do freebies like that they need to report something so people don't get hassled at the least or have their packages stopped at customs at the worst.

Good idea.

As I have not received a shipping notfication from HLJ yet, I went ahead and emailed them requesting that the include a nominal declared value for any free promo item included in the shipping box they send via FedEx.

Now to see if they follow through or not, or if it makes any difference.

Just got two of the Angelbird kits yesterday, and a small, complimentary brown bag of some sort of rice puff snacks. We can't translate what it is, but the logo says BEFCO, and it smells like soy sauce. Happy anniversary! Anyone else get something similar?

[Kurisama]

Lol, I got some potato ringsu - tastes like potato ships. Madness.

[mass driver]

I got some puffs that tasted like takoyaki. It was made by Fritolay

Chris, i just searched my inbox. I got it for 150 on Ebay.

[usagiz]

Sweet deal on a sound booster!

[UN Spacy]

About $60 shipped?

FIYAH!!!

[Valkyrie Magnus]

I got the potato rings with my max vf1a tv version. It was 50% off but shipping was $30

[Macette]

anyone notice that the HLJ site has been Really slow last few days?

[xrentonx]

Yes, I have.

[troyness]

It,s confussing to, with their updated site, when I finally got to 1/60 macross it had like 2-3 figs available that where discontinued?

Maybe I,m doing something wrong.

[Lolicon]

Does the VF-1D with option parts come with Hikaru and Minmay or does it only come with a generic pilot figure?

[Valkyrie Magnus]

I was thinking of asking the question but since hlj does not have it in stock any ideas where I can get this?

[Kicker773]

VF11B restocked. Whoever told me they were on sale is the Devil. I literally was on the edge but since it was on sale.. i pulled the trigger. Now I can recreate my New Edwards base in 1/60 scale. DAMN YOU!!!

[Chronocidal]

Wait, the sale is still going? What items are still discounted?

I might be tempted to grab another VF-11, just to make my shipment with the DYRL Cannon Fodder VF-1A a bit more cost effective.

[Kicker773]

They just filled the backorders, well atleast with mine and my squads are coming home soon..

[Chronocidal]

Ahh, got it then, that makes sense. I checked all the Yamato items and everything was pretty much back up to normal prices, though a lot of items seem to be permanently marked at 10% off.

The GNU figures are still 80% off though, which really is a nice price for those. I picked up a YF-19/YF-21 pair, and while I'm a little disappointed they don't have thigh swivels, and like to pop apart easily, they look pretty awesome guarding my entertainment system. I think I would have felt really ripped off at full price, but $8 a pop feels just right.

I got mine a few years back @ 11 bucks and could not resist the price. MSRP on them seems ridiculous, but at the low price they are now it's worth it.

[ps99042]

So when I got today's email advertising their latest sale, I figured it'd be an easy pass since I already have the Yamato items they usually put on sale. Then I saw the VF-1J GN-U for about $10 before shipping...Is it worth getting? I already have the 19's, 21, and 11's including the variants but no 1 yet.

[Valkyrie Magnus]

I don't have the vf-11b or the dyrl Hikaru and Kakizaki vf-1a 1/60 but with that sale I could not refuse.

[Froy]

Crap! I surrender to temptation. Getting Max %55 off and Kakizaki 50% off. And since tomorrow is my 29th birthday I think that's a nice gift from my self

I caved and got a TV Max. Almost got a DYRL Hikaru 1A, but it's a version 1 hip and it'll be on sale again. The VF-11 is tempting, but does one really need a forth 'B?

[Valkyrie Magnus]

Thanks for the tip I cancelled the Hikaru VF-1 A part of the order

[UN Spacy]

Wake me when the 17D and 19P hit the sales bin.

[Golden Arms]

Yeah I had to finally pick up Gamlins vf-22 and the sound booster armor.

I'm dying to get my hands on an 11C but everytime I see one it's never the Skull Leader variant. ::nudge nudge, wink wink::

I'm considering it too. Gamlin is the character I most identify with throughout all the saga but I only dig the 22 in fighter mode and the 17 Gamlin's head looks stupid in my opinion. I just got the Alto renewal this week (it got me pregnant on the first date... It's that hot). Tel us if the 22 is worth it. It's not that pricey.
