Valkyrie23 Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Link is right here: http://www.amiami.co...de=TOY-RBT-2516 It's still linked from the "related items" list under the other Bandai valks. Thanks for the link! I definitely slept on the first release since I was saving up for the VF-4G's I preordered. Plus, I was unsure how the paint job would turn out and I wasn't going to pay above retail for this one. Quote
xrentonx Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 I'd buy it if this time it has the rich golden-yellow stripes, and green clear parts. (and maybe print the SMS markings in something other than white-on-white) It would be my third one but absolutely THIS! Give me the version that was originally shown and I'll play your game again, Bandai! Quote
PsYcHoDyNaMiX Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Order stop on HLJ already!?! LOL... it might just be an update on the page. Quote
Chronocidal Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Yep, the date's all wrong, they just updated the page from "Discontinued" to that. Quote
Sandman Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) Nevermind. Edited January 8, 2013 by Sandman Quote
Chronocidal Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN977444 Btw, AmiAmi's site is spazzing out from all the product searches. People are obviously anxious to get this thing. Edited January 8, 2013 by Chronocidal Quote
Chronocidal Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Aaannnd... AmiAmi is listed as sold out now. Where's that freaking facepalm smiley.. NO WAIT GOGOGO Quote
neoexcaliber Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Hobby Search had it for a while. I should've clicked on Add when I saw the reservation bar popup. Quote

SaitouSad Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) I notice this is a pretty common thing with popular Bandai stuff on Amiami.. it usually becomes sold out by the time it gets listed on the english Amiami page. Oh well.. I guess I'll just have to live without a YF-29 (not wanting to pay ass rape price here). I'm still hoping for a VF-25F and S re-release though.. but god knows if we'll even be able to score it with this kinda nonsense happening all the time Edited January 8, 2013 by SaitouSad Quote
Chronocidal Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 no see.. I was able to put one in my cart, and I got to the LAST BUTTON TO SUBMIT THE ORDER. Then it tells me they're out, and can't fill the order. People have set up automated scripts to submit the orders automatically I'm pretty sure. Quote
Dark_Ghost Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 it is also sold out on the Japanese version of Ami Ami Quote
PsYcHoDyNaMiX Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Gone fast on Amiami probably because they did not limit the orders to 1 per household. Its set to 3. Quote
SaitouSad Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Gone fast on Amiami probably because they did not limit the orders to 1 per household. Its set to 3. Product notes --*This item is limited to 1 per customer. (Limit includes all AmiAmi stores and previous orders.) Duplicate orders will be canceled. *Photos are of a sample and the actual product may differ. well.. here's hoping those duplicates get cancelled and we can still snag 1 each later Quote
Sandman Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 I wonder if there is a slight delay between the japanese and english version of the page. Even if it's just seconds, the stock could be depleted before anyone on the english site has a chance to purchase. Probably off base but maybe true if no one here got one? Quote
Lupin The Third Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 VF-171 still at CDJapan. Get em while you can! Quote

Even if it's just seconds, the stock could be depleted before anyone on the english site has a chance to purchase. Probably off base but maybe true if no one here got one? That is what I was trying to say, as this has happened with other very popular Bandai products before. Also probably coupled with very limited stock for online retailers like Amiami Quote
Graham Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Missed it also Finally got into the colour scheme. Oh well, there's still 3 or so physical shops with stock of the first release here in HK at Ins-Point Center, but all selling for HK$2,680 (US$345) Not sure I wanna pay that much. Graham Quote
valid Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) amiami sold out damn.. i went out to eat.. and missed the window Edited January 8, 2013 by valid Quote
Lupin The Third Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) Umm...is anyone listening VF-171 CF IN STOCK at CDJ! http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/goods/goods_detail.html?KEY=NEOGDS-79185 Edited January 8, 2013 by Lupin The Third Quote
BlueMax Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 For those people who were not able to stay up or had no access to the internet during this period, take solace in the fact that those who were standing by the PCs hitting F5 every other second were not able to get it as well. Quote
SaitouSad Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 And this folks, is why Yamato should be the one handling the future Valks (especially the YF-30) But fat chance of that happening... Quote
