mxbx99 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Hey guys, I just sent an e-mail to N-Y about the roy pre-order, as mine hasn't shipped. They responded to me about the extra shipping fee, which is fine (I didn't know about it until I read this board), as I never got the e-mail back on 4-19-16. How long did it take for you to get the invoice from paypal. I thought they would just link it in the response e-mail, or allow you to click on it in your account information. Thank You Quote

Thank You It took 2 days to get the invoice via email after they sent an email letting me know it would cost more to ship. I didn't file a ticket or anything as I totally forgot I ordered one of these. After I paid the difference it shipped out in a day. Also check your email daily, the invoice had a due date of like a day to pay. Edit: The email they sent was an invoice with a "view and pay invoice" tab. Edited April 29, 2016 by wmkjr Quote

No invoice, no shipping. Did you go to paypal? I misread the email and thought it'd be on the NY site but had to go to Paypal. Quote
neoexcaliber Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) Aaand we have a release date for the Glaug. Did you go to paypal? I misread the email and thought it'd be on the NY site but had to go to Paypal. I did. I don't see any invoices or payment requests. Edited April 29, 2016 by neoexcaliber Quote
mxbx99 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Yeah, I've been checking my e-mail daily (normal, spam), which I've never had had an issue with n-y before. It wasn't even till I contacted them today that my order went prep in progress to waiting for customer reply. Again, Thanks for the responses Quote
Roy Focker Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 A month to the Glaug? That's real close. Quote
spanner Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) A month to the Glaug? That's real close. And three months till the Monster! given that it does actually release end of July.. This one im really busting for! Edited April 29, 2016 by spanner Quote

arbit Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Next to the valks, the Monster doesn't look too huge. Space is always a worry. Quote
Duymon Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) Next to the valks, the Monster doesn't look too huge. Space is always a worry. Yeah... One monster won't be so huge. Some people will probably go crazy and get the full Space-War 1 compliment of monsters for their SDF-1. That's Three O_o Edited April 29, 2016 by Duymon Quote
spanner Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Next to the valks, the Monster doesn't look too huge. Space is always a worry. it should be about as tall as a battroid VF-1 at least but that camera angle doesn't really do the thing justice.. Im sure it'll be an impressive thing once we actually get our hands on it! Quote
sh9000 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 That virtual tour is cool. Damn everything that will be coming out looks great. The Glaug and Monster are looking impressive. If there were optional parts made for this line, I'd want a Tamashii set of missile/cannon effects and thruster/booster effects. Or maybe a 3rd party can make those. Quote
Big s Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 The monster is crouched down and those arms are almost as big as a regult each, well maybe I'm exaggerating a bit Quote

Roy Focker Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 I've got 3 IKEA detolf display cases with a total of 12 shelves. I either need to buy another case or free up some shelves. Quote

RDX17 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) Reading through posts from the last few weeks, it looks like the VF-1A (Brownie) was officially announced April 19th, followed by the Pre-order on April 28th, with a release date schedule for September. Being relatively new to this, is this how the prior announcements/pre-orders/releases have been handled as well? A week or so between the announcement and pre-order, with a release scheduled 5 months down the road? Thanks! Edited April 29, 2016 by RDX17 Quote

Sometimes announcement were made a month or less than a month prior of the preorder date. Sometimes they will show some items in one of their shows months before the preorder date. Some of them will get made, and some of them will not. But once you've seen the official promotional photos that kinda looks like the recent VF-1A they've shown, then you'll know that they will announce pretty soon the preorder date. Hope that helps.

This is great, thanks so much. I pre-ordered a Glaug, but decided to skip the Monster and the Brownie, so I'm just trying to get a sense of what & when to expect next.

Loop Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) I was having problems with my bank again using my CC with CDJ again. I refuse to stay on the phone with my bank again for several hours trying to get the payment to go through just to have my card locked over and over again. I guess I'm only getting 3x instead of 6x this time around. I asked for CDJ to cancel it. Edited April 29, 2016 by Loop Quote
Big s Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 RDX17 it seems we get a normal release every 2 months at the end of the month. The preorders have come up at the end of the month between normal releases. So we had the 1a preorder at the end of April with the glaug release at the end of May. The monster I believe is released end of July, so a preorder should pop up end of June if they keep up the pattern. The info on the preorders doesn't seem to have a specific pattern, but it's usually close to the preorder date, within a week or so. There has only been one web exclusive for the hmr line and that hasn't had a pattern yet. Quote

YOu could always checkout via Paypal and pay up front. however, if you go that route minus well do Anime Export, they are 400 yen cheaper per unit. Quote

SuperMacrossFan2015 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) Hi All, I just placed an order a few days ago for a grand worth of macross stuff with Nippon Yasan. I kind of wished I had checked them out before hand. I didn't really pay much attention to their fine print but saw that they reserve the right to change ordered items out with other items at their discretion. I am hoping I get what I wanted in my order but am kind of nervous and not sure. Has anyone had problems with them before or are they pretty reliable and honest? Also what's up with the discount system? Not really clear on how it works. They have some kind of "level up" as well as point system has anyone ever used this before and if so could you explain? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Edited April 29, 2016 by SuperMacrossFan2015 Quote
RDX17 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 I know, two months of waiting for info more or less gets me antsy. That I definitely understand. Quote
