Podtastic Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 My order was rejected. They won't ship to Japan. Surely there must be a workaround. MyUS not an option? Quote
Podtastic Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Just PO'd one from Big Bad Toy Store. I didn't care much about the bonus, and BBTS is local place I like to support. This should pair well with my HMRs. Not sure if I want the others though, maybe Exodol, definitely Miria if they make a Meltlandi version of her (but it doesn't look like it's planned). He told me that they might make her if they made enough from sales on the other figures, I think he meant the SDF flight suit as he referred to the "armoured" version. Quote
sh9000 Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Everyone who ordered through MEP by yesterday at 8:27 PM MST will receive the ship. Quote
Roy Focker Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Okay I'll bite. Ordered one from BBTS cause $4 shipping is better than $8. The pics aren't that impressive but this might be the only modern action figure for this character. Is his dress going to be semi-soft plastic with slits to allow for some leg movement? Quote
UN Spacy Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 Arcadia’s Flashback 2012 Minmay will be an Arcadia store exclusive. Anyone know how folks in the US can get this? Quote
no3Ljm Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 Arcadia’s Flashback 2012 Minmay will be an Arcadia store exclusive. Anyone know how folks in the US can get this? Best bet is thru proxies. Quote
Lolicon Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 All the previous PF releases were Arcadia web exclusives as well, but some shops did carry them. So there's probably a good chance that NY and AE and maybe even HLJ might carry them, with varying mark-ups of course. Just have to wait and see. I want that Minmay. My only Minmay figure is a CM trading figure. Quote
borgified Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 You're actually giving me ideas already @UN Spacy as I actually have an idea on where to put Arcadia's FB 2012 Minmey when I do get her. Quote
no3Ljm Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 You're actually giving me ideas already @UN Spacy as I actually have an idea on where to put Arcadia's FB 2012 Minmey when I do get her. Where? Besides the upcoming HMR VF-4 Lightning III? Quote
borgified Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 Your wondering where I'm going to put Arcadia's Minmay, Noel?? Although "cannon-be-damned" as I don't have a VF-4, it's going go be put smack dab in front and center of my Yamacaida VF-1 shelf when I get time to assemble it and with the HMR alongside with it.

Aha! Now you really need to have a 'damned-it-should-be-canon-no-matter-what' VF-4 Flashback. Just because. Quote
sh9000 Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 I think I’ll try to get Minmay for my HMR VF-4 squad. Quote
UN Spacy Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 So what’re other proxy websites that offer Arcadia’s 3D Lab merch? I know http://www.nekomagic.com/ has carried their stuff before. Any suggestions folks. Fingers crossed HLJ or Ami carry this. Quote
JetJockey Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Arcadia’s Flashback 2012 Minmay will be an Arcadia store exclusive. Anyone know how folks in the US can get this? She looks better in that picture. Best Minmay figure so far probably already confirmed. Especially since I like Flashback so much. Probably the only better figure would be spacesuit Minmay from DYRL. As it's all about the songs. All the previous PF releases were Arcadia web exclusives as well, but some shops did carry them. So there's probably a good chance that NY and AE and maybe even HLJ might carry them, with varying mark-ups of course. Just have to wait and see. I want that Minmay. My only Minmay figure is a CM trading figure. What are PF releases? Anyone but Nippon Yasan. I think there should be a few more resources to order her. Anyone who sees more news keep us posted as there isn't a listing for her on MFC yet. Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 PF=Premium Finish. Until the VE-1 the only official place to buy PF editions were from the Arcadia web store, similar to P-Bandai or Tamashii Web Exclusive items. HLJ does carry Arcadia exclusives, whereas they don't for Bandai. Quote
Lolicon Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 If it comes down to it and none of the above-mentioned retailers carry Minmay, there's always proxy services. Quote

HLJ does carry Arcadia exclusives, whereas they don't for Bandai. I remember trying to contact Bandai to get an exclusive in one of their US stores and they were terrible. Had zero clue about what to do. I don't know why they even have a US operation if they don't know what's going on. Hopefully HLJ will get her. If it comes down to it and none of the above-mentioned retailers carry Minmay, there's always proxy services. I need a link to order, then I'll check some of the proxies. Not missing Minmay after finally getting the chance at a good figure. Quote

Or just anything in genera? Because if it's Macross, then you'll already know why they couldn't sell here directly. I need a link to order, then I'll check some of the proxies. Not missing Minmay after finally getting the chance at a good figure. Keep on checking Arcadia's website. Because they haven't put Minmay there for purchase. If they do, then you can forward that link to any proxy service you're going to use. Quote

But they didn't even know what the figure was from. I told them it was from their foreign site and they told me to contact them. Quote
no3Ljm Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Do we know how tall Minmay will be? 15.5cm. It's probably around 1/10 scale. Minmay's height is 158cm (5'2"). Quote
JetJockey Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Minmay is short. Recently I reevaluated my height and weight. I was taller when I was younger sadly according to my license. But 1/10 scale should be ok. She'll go in front of the Macross Complete box set and I think I have the Minmay Sings for You original CD somewhere. Quote
UN Spacy Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 Shipment only to Japan. Can anyone help me finding a proxy? http://arcadia.ac/products/detail.php?product_id=288 Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 Shipment only to Japan. Can anyone help me finding a proxy? http://arcadia.ac/products/detail.php?product_id=288 You can go to FromJapan and just stick the URL into their search bar, that'll bring up the page for shopping requests.

sumyumgoy Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 I want one...but that seems expensive for a 6 inch figure. Is it because it is resin? Quote
UN Spacy Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 Gonna look perfect next to CM's Gutto Kuro Minmay. That price is damn steep for a six inch fig though. Quote

Darotower Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 Some pictures of the upcoming 1/6 scale Hikaru Ichijo TV by Kids Logic Quote
derex3592 Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 That looks DAMN good and I'm gonna get one I hope! Quote
Pontus Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 Wait, they can make a skin tight, fabric flight suit for Hikaru, but they can't make Minmei's sleeves flexible?! Quote
Mazinger Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 The clothing looks good, but who knows if it will last or just slowly disintegrate over a couple of years. The face, though, that looks like a confident, heroic, determined young man ready to go kick ass. None of which I associate with Hikaru. Quote
