An all blue VF-1S Max custom would look cool. My last spare VF-1S head is being used though. Unless I get more HMR Valks. The all red VF-1S belongs to Mariafokina Barnrose from VF-X2. I need to finish that one. Quote

Yes, sometimes item's MSRP is 25% more expensive at HLJ. But factor also the shipping cost from all of the stores afterwards and which customer service is better. In the end, all you really save or lost is $10-18. Besides, you can cancel the one from HLJ anytime, hassle and worry-free and without worrying of getting banned. Just saying.

bleecher Posted July 7, 2017 Posted July 7, 2017 What are the chances that N-Y gets this item back in stock during the preorder phase? I recall seeing other hi-metal r releases staying in stock for quite a while. Quote

It kinda look like Jetfire but at the same time it doesn't feel like it's Jetfire. I really like how it looks with Max. Now I'm curious to see this in the 1/60 scale counterpart. Not sure if all the shades of reds and blues are the same from the 1J's against the 1S. Now the big question here should I hunt down a 1/60 VF-1S Max? Or just wait for Arcadia for Max 1S so that it will have that sparkling glowing pink white. Quote

I recall seeing other hi-metal r releases staying in stock for quite a while. What specific figure you're referring? The VF-2SS? If it is, you can use NY's notification email when the item is available again for preorder. There's actually no assurance when or whether it will have. The only way to check it is is to use their notification or check the online shops from time to time. You can also use FigInStock to send you notification whether the said item is back in stock. This question has been asked time and time again and this is also the answer we always give to everyone. The key here is always patience. Hope that helps. Quote

I recall seeing other hi-metal r releases staying in stock for quite a while. NY doesn't seem to reopen preorders at original pricing very often. If they do, it will usually be early on, like a few days after initial preorder sell out (probably due to mistakes/cancellations). Usually, they will have stock after release at a higher price. I suspect this is part of how they are able to offer the lowest prices initially. Quote

Show me first a Yamato 1/60 Max VF-1S wearing his VF-1J Super Packs. And a Yamato 1/60 Hikaru VF-1S wearing Millia's VF-1J Super Packs. Then I'll decide. But so you know, my only concern is that they will have different shade of white if I purchased a Yamato Max VF-1S. You do remember that's the reason why I sold my Hikaru VF-1's, right? Quote

I could do the Yamato Max VF-1S pic for you to see when I get home. I'll put the HMR next to it so that the pic will still be relevant to this thread. It will have TV arm armors, a black heatshield, and no skull stickers on the Super Parts though. Quote

I don't collect everything. I just want the Hikaru scheme. But so far, can't help buying Valks that doesn't have Hikaru schemes. But that doesn't mean I need to buy Max's VF-1S now. It will be out of place since I don't have Yamato DYRL whites anymore. So it's pointless for me to get a Yamato Max VF-1S. For sure, you can tell that it's also a shame to display those two VF-1S Fighters together when they don't have the same white color, right? Quote
