For more than 15 years I've been ordering with SAL shipping. The savings get passed on to the next order. I think I've used EMS once.

Congrats to everyone who got 1, 2, or more VF-1J's. The more support for this line means that it will continue to thrive.

I wanted a real Hikaru 1J, not some "DYRTV" abomination. :p

i hope they get the red stripes on the chest correct.

I love the pay up front shops. The POs stay open for so much longer and I get no surprise payment requests on release day

herp derp we'll have the right chest stripes on our anime drawing but not the actual toy, like on the original HM 1J

got one from AA.

took so long to process though.

I had the same experience this morning.

0800 click to refresh...wait...

Click to preorder the HM-R 1J...wait...

Oops...want to add that cool Tamashii Patlabor figure too...wait...

Oops...need to login to complete my order...wait...

Grr...AmiAmi's confirmation page...click...more waiting...

But everything went through. Phew! ^_^

Wrong chest pattern and I'm not convinced that Bandai will make it white this time. So yet another easy pass. My high anime accuracy standards make me save a lot of money. ^_^

I got mine last night within 5 minutes of pre-orders opening on HLJ, also got my Robot Damashii ANIME Z'Gok, Patlabor Unit 1 Alphonse, and Figuarts Vegeta V2. Good night altogether, nice and easy.

Got removed from my cart at Ami-Ami too.

I guess I'm out. Is it just me or did this one seemed to sale out a lot faster than the VF-1A Mass Production? Was there less supply or higher demand this time?

definitely not higher demand.

they should only print a little or this things going to be a shelf warmer

Bandai may go for the double-dip with this one!

They'll include the "still wrong" chest-striped TV VF-1J "abomination" with the 100% TV GBP combo set with yellow-tipped missiles...which will also have similar low production numbers as they will be sticking into the combo set the other half of the VF-1J's they withheld from PO's today! :rolleyes:

It will go down as the holy grail of HMRs! :p

I just realized, I wish the Cannon Fodder had a gun strap.

I think it's more of a safety net release to pad the numbers. HMR took some risks on the monster, glaug and regult so i figure they'll throw in a safety here or there

To that end, I think it will be a few releases yet before Bandai release a different VF model -until they have enough equity in the HM-R line to justify the risks that come with releasing new transforming models.

Nice to see another release so soon, but I wonder if this will affect the anticipated Max/Milia VF-1Js?

Still hoping for a Hikaru, Max and Kakizaki DYRL VF-1A release as well.

Wow, chaos! Went online 6am EST and everyone was sold out already. I didn't even realize that the TV 1J was going up for P.O. so quickly after announcement, and I especially didn't expect it to sell out SO quickly. Luckily, I was able to get one on AE.

I'm loving all of the releases so far, but man... I'm REALLY hoping for a few Destroids or a TV Quaedluun-Rau P.O. next. Seriously. I mean, the Glaug is just SO nice to FINALLY add to a collection (mine came Tuesday morning), and with already seeing the Destroids... I have high hopes for a more complete line this go around.

Edit P.S. - hoping for TV Max & Kakizaki VF-1As & a VF-1D soon also!!!

Oh, you and me both, pal. My Glaug apparently was out on the truck today, but since the USPS didn't bother to update the tracking status between customs and the attempted delivery, I had no idea it was in town. I would have met the carrier if I had. Ah well, at least I get it tomorrow morning!

I don't know if this will be a new pattern, but with one release a month hopefully some destroids will be out soon.

+1. Especially the Spartan.

So now that we have covers for the top of the shoulder maybe the next Hikaru 1j with the armor pack sometime down the line we get the covers for the side f the body.

Tomahawk, please! :lol:

Just received my Regult, and it is amazing. I'm thinking of panel lining it to make it pop a bit more.
