stormshadow0621 Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 (edited) Wow, totally forgot about this. But it's probably good since I just ordered both a Hot Toys Hulk and War Machine last night. Still trying to figure out how I am going to pay for them when the bill comes in. Going to go home tonight and play with my 1/60 VF-1J + armor just to make myself feel better Edited May 1, 2015 by stormshadow0621 Quote
Gun pod 78 Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 True. It's either you cancel your order at HLJ which is much easier to do than Amiami. Or totally ignore your order at Amiami and just pray that they don't put your infos on their blacklist. I'll cancel one of the hlj I'll let you know when I do so someone can get one. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 You mean Gundam? messed up! Gundam is awesome EXO, you should give it a chance. Quote
Gakken85 Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 I'll cancel one of the hlj I'll let you know when I do so someone can get one. I think they wait to get a significant amount before they relist, it's not a real time activation. Quote
Vifam7 Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 (edited) Just to note - Golden Week starts today in Japan so retailers might already be on skeleton staff and sites might not be updated until after next week. Edited May 1, 2015 by Vifam7 Quote
beatsing Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 It's SW so probably a lot more to go around. Even so, I had to secure one before thinking about the J. On most nights it's the other way around. Wasn't sweatin' this HM preorder though Thats true. However, macross products seem to sell out so fast I'd think these companies secure more product. Little surprised that the storm trooper is still in stock, since so many peeps army build, like macross fans:) Quote
no3Ljm Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 messed up! Gundam is awesome EXO, you should give it a chance. Gundam fan here too. And yes, Gundam is awesome EXO, give GGundam a chance. Quote
TheFallen Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Well this has certainly tempered my excitement for this line. I won't jump through hoops to start a new toy line. Quote
beatsing Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Gundam fan here too. And yes, Gundam is awesome EXO, give GGundam a chance. Me too. I bought into this line so itd be in scale with my master grades. Well this has certainly tempered my excitement for this line. I won't jump through hoops to start a new toy line. Hard to swear off; i wasnt collecting macross for a while, but armored valk to go with glaug is too tempting. Frustrating though. Quote
F360 Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 I'll cancel one of the hlj I'll let you know when I do so someone can get one. just a heads up on HLJ , for items that are limited to 1 per customer, if you happen to have multiple orders of that item for whatever reason. when they audit, they can freeze your account for not following the rules.

McFly!! Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 that was a booby trap Hahaha! You beat me to it! XD Quote
McFly!! Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 messed up! Gundam is awesome EXO, you should give it a chance. Bandai does a great job of releasing 'bad guys' for the gundam series though. I actually prefer the bad guys over the good guys. Then again good and bad are very debatable in the gundam universe Quote
Nerd-linger Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 In the mad preorder rush I ended up with two orders at HLJ. Did anyone happen to notice if there was a "1 per customer" rule for this one? I'm trying to decide if I have to cancel one or not. Quote

I'm trying to decide if I have to cancel one or not. I think Hlj limited stuff after the fact in the past, amd i think it said limit 1 per customer. Quote
beatsing Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Darn, nippon yasan cancelled my preorder, but i already paid when i ordered. What the heck?! Quote
Nerd-linger Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 I went ahead and cancelled one of my HLJ orders, I can't risk having my account frozen with a VF-19 Advanced in there. Quote
rasky Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Aw dang, it didn't seem to have opened up, unless someone else already picked it up. Thanks though! Quote
SuperMacrossFan2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Does anyone know if there is information out somewhere on when the rest of the Valks in this line will be released (eg.VF-1s, VF-1j, VF1d...etc)? I still can't believe that this first release will not even be shipped until September. If this is how Bandai operates than it appears that a new Valk or any of the other mecha will be coming out one at a time for the next few years. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you forum members. Quote
Loop Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Damn, I have been so busy lately I missed out on the first release in this line.. Quote
calubin_175 Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 I have 3 in total and I'll need to cancel one from CD Japan soon, but not any time within this week. PM me if you are interested and I then I'll reply when I actually make the cancellation. Quote

Thank you forum members. I think the vf1s with super parts came out a while back. I got the Vf1j years ago. Not sure if sny other variants came out. I just saw a convention photo of the new armored valk in a diorama with battle pods and the green archer mech, the super vf1s. Not sure when the release dates are though. Quote
rasky Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Ugh, this looks much better than the Toynami 1/100's that I've got. If anyone is interested in cancelling a pre-order, and is interested in helping, could you PM me? Quote
derex3592 Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 damn, that last pic makes it look pretty sweet.... Quote
Duymon Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 If that's really the production shade of plastic they are using it'll be really nice as it won't be the same strong white used in the 1st hi-metal 1J, which was super prone to yellowing. Quote
Chronocidal Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 It's also against a brilliantly glaring white background, so I don't know if that's a good way to judge the color. Quote
TheFallen Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 https://secure.hlj.com/product/BAN966524/Act Back up and I snagged one. I am happy now Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Thanks for the heads up. I put an order in as well. Quote
calubin_175 Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 That was quick. It is probably from all those people who cancelled due to having 2 at HLJ. Quote
rasky Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) Noooo!I took a nap! You know what, I am perfectly happy with my Toynami's. (??) Edited May 3, 2015 by rasky Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Run!!! oh wait i can wait... i want some bad guys Quote
TheFallen Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 If this one is this hard to get I fear how the bad guys are going to be Quote
Keiichi Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) Flat coated? I just noticed that they've put a 'UN Spacy' tampo on the lower legs. That's awesome to see, not even the VF-1S had that; it's such a small thing but it really adds a lot to the valk imo. I decided to pass on the GBP, but when/if they re-release the VF-1S I'll definitely buy another if it has the additional tampo detail. Edited May 3, 2015 by Keiichi Quote
