Guest davidwhangchoi Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 What kind of speakers are those in the background? How funny, my Master File book had a stop-over in Seattle before moving on to Memphis. Seattle takes fricking forever at six hours. The Super Parts have gone through Anchorage, didn't even take an hour before moving on. Energy RC-70's Jedi reflexes! XD thanks for posting the pics! Can't wait for mine to arrive! yeah, and hope you enjoy your ozma 29! Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted September 29, 2014 Author Posted September 29, 2014 Nice pics everyone! My Ozma Super Parts shipped via FedEx from N-Y (honestly forgot what shipping method I'd chosen) but I'm not going to track them. They'll show up sometime in the next couple of days. -b. Quote
Saburo Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 Yes, the parts have arrived in WA. Should be getting them tomorrow. Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted September 29, 2014 Author Posted September 29, 2014 Yes, the parts have arrived in WA. Should be getting them tomorrow. Well fine. I'll join the package tracking bandwagon. I just requested FedEx to hold mine at a sort facility, I'll have them in-hand tomorrow. -b. Quote
anubis20 Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 Looks like he holds the pack ok in battroid mode with no stand. Quote
Saburo Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 I got my Super Parts today. I am not sure if its me and this not a nitpick, just an observation, but do the super parts seem a bit darker? Quote
brouken Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 Great pics OzmaLee! So far, this is the most subtle super parts I've ever seen on a valk. Anyone who is unfamiliar with the YF-29 design would be hard pressed to distinguish between the regular and super version of this valk. :-) @ Saburo: Can't wait to see you work your photography magic on this! :-D I'm a bit disappointed that NY is still preparing my pre-order for this. I wonder if they're having stock problems... Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 For those who got their supers today, does the light gray on the crotch plate and the front of the legs match the light gray on the wings of the super pack? Great pics OzmaLee! So far, this is the most subtle super parts I've ever seen on a valk.

I wonder if they're having stock problems... You and me both regarding the N-Y seemingly eternal prepping stage. Their site even seems to show they have them in stock now so I don't know what's the hold up. They better not ship those out to other people before covering the ones who already pre-ordered long ago and paid. As for most subtle super parts, my vote goes to the YF-21 and YF-19 FAST packs (or do the conformal leg covers on the VF-0 count?). On my very first watch through of Macross Plus long long ago, I never even realized they had extra bits on them. Quote

On my very first watch through of Macross Plus long long ago, I never even realized they had extra bits on them. I do agree that the fast packs on the YF-21 and YF-19 are pretty subtle in terms of overall size and added bulk to the valks. The only way you'll find out they have them on is because the fast packs come in the standard grey add-on colors. :-) I take it from the other threads that everyone who pre-ordered the super parts from NY are having the same delay problems? I'm not in any particular hurry to get mine, but I do hope they don't end up cancelling because of stock shortage. Quote

I needed take down my photography setup to organize and I needed a break, took a bunch of shot this past weekend. As for NY, not sure what's been going on. they have been getting slower recently.

On my very first watch through of Macross Plus long long ago, I never even realized they had extra bits on them. MJ the light grey on the super parts is a lighter compared the the light gray on the shins and the paint on the super parts is matte. That kinda suprised me and I after looking at the parts they are a slightly darker shade of grey then the Valk. You can really see it in fighter mode when the shield cover is attached. I like it is give a subtle contrast. Edited September 30, 2014 by Saburo Quote
ErikElvis Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 I got my supers from NY yesterday. Strange people are getting eternal prepping stage. Quote
Mommar Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 My Super Parts showed up yesterday afternoon as well. I like the way they look in Gerwalk most, though with the low vis scheme I feel like it helps to make the wingspan look a little tighter in fighter as well. I still haven't warmed up to the look of Battroid with them attached, and that's currently the only mode I have room for in my display at the moment, so they'll likely sit off until I can shuffle some space. (Or unless Yeti can whip out some more of his stands.) Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 (edited) I submitted a ticket to ask about why mine is still stuck in "preparation" for all this time when other people have had theirs shipped and gotten them already. Not to mention the fact that other stores were able to send them out on time from the product's release. Thanks, I hopefully be shooting the 29 this weekend.

Valk-1S Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 I submitted a ticket to ask about why mine is still stuck in "preparation" for all this time when other people have had theirs shipped and gotten them already. Not to mention the fact that other stores were able to send them out on time from the product's release. I had other stuff stuck in preparation for a while before too while others have received theirs. Not sure the reason, perhaps they getting their shipment in batches or just delay in the shipment process. But so far they have sent everything out for me. Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Thanks, Saburo! So I'm guessing the matte light gray color is closer to that of crotch plate. It will be interesting trying to match the color. Quote
Saburo Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Thanks, Saburo! So I'm guessing the matte light gray color is closer to that of crotch plate. It will be interesting trying to match the color. No problem. I'll take a comparison pic of the crotch plate and light gray this weekend. I am too lazy to transform the 29 right now. Quote
xrentonx Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Just confirmed all three of my armor parts have shipped for my three Ozmas. NY is batting 1000 so far for all things websclusive for me. Hopefully everyone else is having as much luck Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted October 2, 2014 Author Posted October 2, 2014 NY had Ozma armor parts for sale? Still do (well, Super Parts, there are no Armor Parts for the 29 ); https://www.nippon-yasan.com/macross/7128-macross-f-super-parts-set-for-dx-chogokin-yf-29-durandal-valkyrie-ozma-lee-custom-limited-edition.html -b.

brouken Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 Finally! NY sent me the shipping notice for my super parts today! Ozma just doesn't seem complete without some kind of super/armor pack on. :-D Quote
xrentonx Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 NY had Ozma armor parts for sale? Not that I know of. I could use one more set for my 25 Ozma. Sorry about the confusion...should've clarified I was talking about three of the wing armor sets for my Ozma 29s. I'm all mixed up on the terms for super/armor... Quote
Loop Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Mine should be here either tomorrow or Saturday, think I got the e-mail from NY on Sun night that they shipped. Quote

I'm impressed you have three Ozma 29's to purchase armor for. Quote
xrentonx Posted October 4, 2014 Posted October 4, 2014 My brain doesn't work right when it comes to Ozma and Focker! Irresponsible spending is the name of the game Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted October 5, 2014 Author Posted October 5, 2014 You could sell me pretty much anything... Truly. Great pics Saburo, and this one just screams "I'm a bad-ass". -b. Quote
Saburo Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 (edited) You could sell me pretty much anything... Thank you! Beautiful Thank you! Truly.

Kanedas Bike Posted October 5, 2014 Author Posted October 5, 2014 ^Ha, you're welcome man - we're all just calling it as we see it. And I saw that as I was stalking your Flickr feed while I was posting my earlier reply. -b. Quote

After taking the pics, I wish they had made Ozma 29 gunpod in a darker color. Yes. A 1,000,000,000 times yes. It amazes me how Bandai will just randomly cheap-out on certain aspects of certain releases and then seem to go extra on others (the gunpod on the 25A comes to mind). -b. Quote
