Mommar Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 My YF-25 is on the Fed Ex truck out for delivery right now. Talk about fast! Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Got my shipping notice from NY this morning. Just used SAL though since I got a whole bunch of other non macross stuff that comes out this month. Quote
anubis20 Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Got my shipping notice from NY this morning. Just used SAL though since I got a whole bunch of other non macross stuff that comes out this month. Same here, plus i was paying the NY mark-up so i had to settle for SAL. Quote
Gakken85 Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 What the difference in Sal and Registered air mail? Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Ordered and paid from two different stores and still no shipping notice. I have shipment envy. -b. Quote
Gakken85 Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Ordered and paid from two different stores and still no shipping notice. I have shipment envy. -b. Haha, which stores? Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Haha, which stores? AmiAmi and N-Y. Let me add, that I'm not worried about either, I just want my stuff because other people are getting theirs. -b. Quote
close313 Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 AmiAmi and N-Y. Let me add, that I'm not worried about either, I just want my stuff because other people are getting theirs. -b. Oh I thought I was the only one. NY has already shipped one of my bandai stuff with the same release date but still no news of "Preparation for Shipping" thing for my YF-25 Quote
ULessa Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 NY... everyone knows their antics. Amiami... Their processing can be so slow sometimes Quote
sreichma Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Mine arrived today. It looks great but does have some imperfections here and there. Nothing that would compromise the valk as a purchase, it looks great and the amount of tampo is incredible. Quote
Gakken85 Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) That's a hot modeluuu I dislike amiami for the same reason I dislike NY. Can't cancel, a pain to combine shipping. Edited June 23, 2014 by Gakken85 Quote
Duymon Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Mine came in today Looking nice. NO scratches on the lerx, but the blue line in the middle is not super clean on the edges. Quote

NY has already shipped one of my bandai stuff with the same release date but still no news of "Preparation for Shipping" thing for my YF-25 Hmmm...I can feel the righteous indignation building up inside me if they say "supply issues". My two least favorite stores Yeah, yeah. Although I have to admit I've been a lot more "aware" of AmiAmi's shipping costs. $$$$ NY... everyone knows their antics. Amiami... Their processing can be so slow sometimes Yep! http://t.co/pghkflvPg3 That is an awesome scheme on that 1/72! Too bad the DX's are virtually impossible to customize like that. -b. Quote
Xigfrid Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 This color scheme remind me also that there is also this repaint from the F movie that still hasn't been made. (On Ranka's right side) Quote
Saburo Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) Mine came in today Looking nice. NO scratches on the lerx, but the blue line in the middle is not super clean on the edges. Thanks for posting Duymon! I can rest easy now I know that the scratch on the lerx is not a bad production issue. Were the pilots packaged or already in the cockpit? update: checked my tracking and its in SF. Edited June 23, 2014 by Saburo Quote

Kanedas Bike Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 ^You know what would make people flip out, if Bandai released a DX Family Mart before, or in lieu of re-issues like the 25S or G. -b. Quote
Valkyrie2008 Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 That scheme is awesome! I two orange valk on order, one is being shipped from CDJ and the other one is still waiting for shipping notice from NY, might consider repainting one, if Bandai never release one in DX. Quote
ULessa Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I changed my mind. I'm putting the VF-25s on top of the VF-171 in my priority list. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Vaaaaaaaaaaalks Quote

I wouldn't be surprise. I think I'm the only person that does not like the 25S, I don't like the head and the head lasers. But I do want one, just to complete my Frontier collections. Quote

YF-29 Durandal Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) looks like the familymart VF-25 Oh yeees I want this one in scale 1/60! Almost no-one will buy it of course and it will become super-rare and worth mucho $$$ muahahahaha. I just got the scale 1/100 one from Amazon... it will look rather nicely next to my GN-U Dou VF-1A Max. Edited June 23, 2014 by YF-29 Durandal Quote

But I do want one, just to complete my Frontier collections. the 25S has always been my least favorite of the 25's and having the ozma YF-29 pretty much nullifies any interest I did have in getting one. about the only thing that would entice me to go after one would be a armored VF-25S bundle, and I think I'd rather get a second VF-25F with armor in that case.

mechaninac Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 ... I dislike amiami for the same reason I dislike NY. Can't cancel, a pain to combine shipping. That's interesting, I've never had a problem with AmiAmi regarding combining or breaking up orders (can't opine about N-Y since I've never tried it with them); every time I've sent them an email inquiring about a combined or split shipping quote, they've replied within 48 hours and were always accommodating to my preferences. This last purchase was a perfect case in point: I had a 1/12 2199 Analyzer awaiting payment when the invoice for the YF-25 showed up in my inbox. The total cost of separate shipments via unregistered SAL would've been 2460 JPY, so I contacted AmiAmi to just ask for a combined shipping quote for my two orders, same shipping method, before going through their site -- I did not want to combine only to find that doing so was going to bump me to a more expensive option -- and they sent me a revised invoice with both items shipped for 1880 JPY; suffice to say, I paid it on the spot, Saturday. Early this morning I got the shipping notification email... so now comes the 2-3 week wait. Quote
Cdr Fokker Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Went ahead and ordered one from CDJ over the weekend... the paint scheme is just too awesome. Got my shipping notice this morning; went with registered airmail like some of the others here, as EMS was just too much. What I found strange, though, was that FedEx wasn't even an option. My last order with them was FedEx, and it included the Frontier movie BD set plus a bunch of other stuff - the box probably could have fit a VF-25 in it, but just barely. (And for that order, FedEx was way cheaper than EMS, and FedEx is way faster and more convenient for me, too.) Quote
Mommar Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) So I have a weird issue with my YF-25. It's not broken, per se, but I need to know how to dismantle the leg because there's a metal rod jammed vertically between the rod the foot rotates around preventing the foot from folding up correct in fighter mode. It's weird and I can't figure out a way to dismantle the leg to pull that additional rod out. Edited June 24, 2014 by Mommar Quote
