Slave IV Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Done! I guess it was worth the wait and lack of sleep, lol Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Woo nice discount. Ordered another VF-2ss and an NXEDGE Gurren Lagann Quote
Kinzoku VF Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Still not sure about it though. The Evolution Toy ver (I kept 1..*sigh*) were such a fugly mess. Makes me wonder if the few improvements on the HMR ver are really worth it. As always, the underside is still 'meh'....Notice the picture conveniently angled so that you can't really see too much of that mess...Seems similar to the Evo Toy underside, (aside for the shoulders/arms hinges) . Seem they added an additional extending flap to hide all the mess of the arm articulation etc. Hopefully being a HMR everything should be nice and tight, but that Evo Toy has left me with a bad taste. I just bought one anyway (more for completion's sake) and you know, in case it sells out in 2 days (highly unlikely....most of the Macross HMR preorders stay open for ages.....I remember doing the same for the Miria version, and it was still available on preorder shortly before release. ) Let's keep everything crossed ....Especially my Ma.

Even though would love to have a set of Destroids, I'll just stick with the Valks. At the start I only wanted HMR Regults not the valks...now I have several valks and only 1 regult Quote
Kinzoku VF Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Seems like it's already sold out . Man that was close! Lucky, as I nearly hesitated Lol. Might've jinxed it with my comment saying the HMR Macross PO stay open for ages...my bad. (It'll more than likely be available again.... for ¥20000 ) Don't you just love that hobby..... Quote
mechaninac Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Well, that's typical! I missed N-Y's listing, at their usual competition trouncing initial pricing, by at least an hour, it seems. The unpredictably coy 'bastids' just had to be a day late, didn't they?... There wasn't a chance in hell I was going to camp out 2 nights in a row no matter how much money was on the line. I'll content myself that I got one with AE at a reasonable amount, even if it had to be with upfront payment, and cancelled the other I had with HLJ. Should the 2SS get a significant sales discount -- say, by X-mas, I'll may get another. Quote

SpaceCowboy Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Doh, looks like I missed out on this. How hard are these to find once they are released generally? Or are they like their big brothers where you have exactly 1 hour to order the thing and then it's only available at scalper prices? Quote

Just wait for HLJ to re-open their pre-orders sometime before release. Quote

As much as I'm all about the official "canon" look, it's fun to imagine other possibilities. Maybe a VF-1S version of the blue HMR Max to go with your VF-1S Milia custom? Quote
wm cheng Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 (edited) Damn it!!! I slept though the NY (NY was the place I really wanted it from). Well at least I got one from AE - lets hope NY opens some more slots up again. Figinstock doesn't seem to work with NY - it says URL invalid. Edited July 4, 2017 by wm cheng Quote
Lorindor Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 I was stuck in a meeting at work when the preorder at NY started... Just my luck. I got one at HLJ, but that will be 25% more expensive in the end. Quote
sumyumgoy Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Congrats to everyone that got it at a good price at NY! Quote

Acteon Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 God that's frustrating. You almost need ninja reflexes to nab these things. Guess I'm stuck with bloody ebay scalper prices again Quote

Who knows how many were sold in that time. as mentioned, NY usually does not reopen preorder at their original price will probably have some available at release for a markup. HLJ and amiami usually do have some available sporadically up to release at original price depending on how their stock goes. 31 minutes ago, Saburo said: For everyone in the US, Happy 4th of July and for everyone outside the US here's Milia x Hikaru x Max.

NY have their own build in notification system for items that's sold out, all you have to do is click on the red [Notify me when available] button on the item page and they will email you once more stock is available. unfortunately it will not be the same low pre order price. I slept though too. Quote
