ff95gj Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 I am waiting for a Mirage SHF. Hope the line will survive till the day we get the original series and F characters. They sell, I buy. Quote
F360 Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 The Weight of those SH figuart should be around 150g Shipping 2 of those from HLJ is pretty cheap. Even with the extra cost per figure you will most likely pay less total than other stores. Price for 2 SH figuart figures weighting at 150g each. Standard Int'l Shipping Usually ships by SAL Small Packet (averages 10-30 business days)¥680 Standard Int'l Reg. Shipping Usually ships by SAL (Registered) (averages 10-30 business days)¥1,090 Express Int'l Shipping Usually ships by EMS (Trackable) (averages 2-7 business days)¥1,700 Express Int'l Courier Usually ships by FedEx (Trackable) (averages 2-5 business days) ¥1,700 Standard Int'l Shipping Usually ships by SAL Parcel (averages 10-30 business days) ¥2,800 Depending on what you already have in your private warehouse at the time, adding those in might not even add any additional shipping cost.

Can't say I was losing sleep but it was certainly annoying the crap outta me that they were taking their time getting them out.. in two emails to NY I causally asked what the reason for the delay was but they didn't give me any in their replies, just shallow meaningless apologies. So I kinda get the idea that the real reason is that they are just dick heads. Pardon my French. Oh well.. Edited February 4, 2017 by spanner Quote

I never collected female figures either but in the past year, I've probably bought as many female as male figures. I never used to buy many non-armored/alien type figures either. Always thought it was silly to buy figures of just some guy in a shirt, jacket or robe (Jedi). But yeah, you get one and down the rabbit hole. Anyways, both SHF Walkure girls ordered and ready to get the rest and any other Macross SHF. Makina variant and a Mirage would be great. Britai would be best! Oh yes the rabbit hole...wiill get just the one, and then the two and three...*cue spinning room and old scifi music* Am holding off on the current SHF's as the valks have put them out of range.. but my red pill (matrix reference to go down the rabbit hole), would be a SHF pilot figure of anyone.... Anyhow, here are close-up's of freya and mikumo...http://toho.seesaa.net/article/446666165.html Quote

It was "in preparation" 2 weeks ago i opened a ticket, but they haven't responded Edited February 5, 2017 by Moosey Quote
spanner Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 they do but when you can't buy or pre-order something from anywhere else but NY then you're stuck using them or waiting till someone else gets it.. Quote
Moosey Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 (edited) Yeah. I swore off them after my VF-0D (arrived damaged - they didn't care) but like Spanner said, if you can't get it elsewhere.... and BiJ were sold out when I went there. Edited February 5, 2017 by Moosey Spelling Quote
seti88 Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 (edited) Could a gunpod fit there instead? HMR size gunpods? Edited February 6, 2017 by seti88 Quote

It's just charming. They take my money but don't bother sending the item. And probably wouldn't if I hadn't contacted them. They are useful for their discounts but I HATE shopping there. Quote
Lolicon Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Surprised the NY fanboys haven't jumped in with some nonsensical defense regarding why they suck. Quote

anime52k8 Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 I generally don't go in for extra gimmicky figures, but those noodle toppers though. Quote

Lolicon Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 I'd go for a Mikumo or Kaname noodle topper. Quote
spanner Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Kaname would be nice but Freyja is cute too! Quote
RocketGTR Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 I had a figma shipping from N-Y. Processed on February 1 and shipped yesterday February 6. Last few orders it has felt like a bit of a delay. It used to ship next day for me before from them. :| Quote
trojan_gambit Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Does it include the round base/cup cover or only the figure ? Quote
Slave IV Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 LOL, trying to start a war over NY? I like them but I don't care about how fast my things ship, just lowest price. I haven't had an issue with them not sending my things or extended delays either. I think they are great for consistently offereing the lowest preorder pricing on most items with one of the lowest shipping costs and best packaging of shipments. Quote
spanner Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 no point trying to start anything with them as they'll most likely just cancel any orders you have and lock your account.. Yeah their business practices can suck at times but a lot of other times we need them. Its kinda a lose win situation.. Quote

One thing I learned from them is... patience. Now I should run and hide. Quote
spanner Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 (edited) yeah but as long as they don't stuff around with their customers too much then I won't have any issues to continue using them.. but I have noticed a change with them in the last 12 months especially. Maybe a change of management or tightening of the profit screws perhaps? Edited February 7, 2017 by spanner Quote

It's a tough business, which makes it kinda important not to piss off your customers. NY consistently has some of the highest shipping rates I've seen. Perhaps there's a secret shipping menu I'm not aware of. Everyone loves X or Y retailer... up until they do something to cheese them off. Quote

Well, we already bad-mouthed all of the online stores... so what else is new? Hahaha! Quote
