pikashoo Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) for those lucky enough to have all the renewals, is the Alto VF-171 box closer in size to the VF-25 renewal boxes or the YF-29 box? specifically the depth Edited April 2, 2013 by pikashoo Quote
ff95gj Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Borrowed from HLJ: VF-171EX36.2 x 23.2 x 10.6 cm / 880gVF-25F36.2 x 23.0 x 10.0 cm / 850gYF-29 Alto36.0 x 23.2 x 11.1 cm / 930g I believe the length and width are actually the same. Quote

Benson13 Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 Hopefully this doesn't go the same way it did for the reissue of the renewal 25F. Quote
Mommar Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 Hopefully this doesn't go the same way it did for the reissue of the renewal 25F. What are you referring to? Quote
Benson13 Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 What are you referring to? It being released and everyone not being able to get one like 2 nights ago. Quote
Mommar Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 It being released and everyone not being able to get one like 2 nights ago. But we already went through pre-order hell for this one back in January. It turns out there are still plenty available (last I checked) at Nippon-Yasan at the very least. Quote

Mommar Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 Looks like I'm wrong about some being available now. I thought there was a rush, panic, then more showed up. Looks like I'm wrong now. Quote
Lolicon Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 HLJ preorder reopened! http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN980635/Sci Quote
Duymon Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 great price. limit of 1 so that we all can get one thank god Quote
Lolicon Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 I'm so happy I finally got a 171 preorder. I never got one before anywhere else, not even an inflated price NY preorder. Quote
miro79 Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 got one to! Anyone here knows how to cancel NY preorders? Quote
Lolicon Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 got one to! Anyone here knows how to cancel NY preorders? I think you have to email them directly and request a cancellation. Quote
Kurisama Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 Go to your order details and leave a message in the section down the bottom. Quote
Dobber Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 If anyone has more than 1 VF-171CF and would like to swap for a VF-171EX (at no additional cost except shipping) let me know. I only want one 171 and decided I would like te CF better than the Alto EX. this would be a prime opportunity for anyone that wants an EX but doesn't want to pay extra. Chris Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) Missed HLJ again!!! Bought another 1/60 VF-17S instead. Edited April 5, 2013 by Ignacio Ocamica Quote
Kelsain Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 If I'd checked this when I first sat down to breakfast, I might've got in at the lower price. Closed by the time I looked later. Meh, no big deal - just glad I got one in at all @ NY. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 any body has an extra pre order for a canon fodder... i guess i need to wait till they release at the end of the month then nab one. Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) Changed my mind. Looking at the old pre-orders Edited April 8, 2013 by Gakken85 Quote
Old Man Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 I'm probably gonna be canceling my 2 at NY. I'll post here as soon as I get a confirmed cancellation. Quote
xrentonx Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 Moral of the story is NEVER count out HLJ because they WILL put up preorders at weird-ass times ...now if I can be awake during those times I'd be golden! Quote
Mommar Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 Meh. Gonna skip the canon fodder. Its kind of ugly color. You're the first person I've ever heard say that about the CF 171 before. Quote
skullmilitia Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 I'm probably gonna be canceling my 2 at NY. I'll post here as soon as I get a confirmed cancellation. NOOOOOO! pm sent! Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) I was looking at the old promo photos. Def cooler in final release. Edited April 8, 2013 by Gakken85 Quote
raptormesh Posted April 6, 2013 Posted April 6, 2013 So late to the party that everybody's going home or on the driveway. Anywhere I can pick this up? Quote
Duymon Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 It's still up at NY. 17000 yen is not an awful price, that's only 2000 yen or so above retail. Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 It's still up at NY. 17000 yen is not an awful price, that's only 2000 yen or so above retail. I emailed HLJ today and the product guy was pretty rude. He basically said it's on order stop and they don't know if they will get more because it's on order stop. I'd rather just pay the 2000 yen markup and not deal with waiting around and missing it at a lower price. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 i pre-ordered, i'm just happy it opened back up at a decent price Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Yeah I'm just glad this is all spaced out til the end of the summer. I owe NY a lot of money! haha Quote
