It might not be visible until right before PO start time later tonight.

[rdrunner]

No early start POs for the -1D yet. Seems like we have to wait until 2am Eastern...

Updated my list above.

I'd like to get it from Amazon, but you never know if they'll ship to the US or not.

Got my laptop and new phone ready to go!

Might have to get a trio of these VF-4's, loving everything about it so far!!

Is this version of the VF-1 usually more in demand than the other versions?

Haha , it’s best to get those when it goes on sale like most of the tamashii effects.

I think it will be very bad

[Roy Focker]

Limits are good because well if 50 collectors visit your web store and the first 5 collectors grab the entire stock you're going to have 45 upset collectors who will skip your store during the next preorder.

It just means a lot of people will use multiple accounts to secure one.

I'm not getting this so good luck to everyone tonight.

 

[Lolicon]

Yeah, item limits don't mean anything except limit x per customer. 

And if you kids weren't around during the frontier preorder days, then you have no idea what real PO madness is. HMR "PO madness" is amateur hour. 

[atreyu2112]

Nothing up at CDJapan, HLJ, Nippon-Yassan, Anime-Export or MyKombini yet...

[Lonely Soldier Boy]

MyKombini will be days late to the game as usual, which is good: I missed on the VF-4 at PO night and got a preorder with them later on.

Just Ami's way of being the practical joker...see their PO times...

Which is pretty much standard. 

Hopefully HLJ have unf*cked their cart system. I ended up having to go with Amiami for the VF-4.

Going to take a quick nap.

It's my job... besides being a student. LOL

One hour 'till server crashes.

We need a TV Focker VF-1S to go with the 1D. While the Focker VF-1S Strike Valk is a decent stand-in, I'm sure a lot of people missed it. Hopefully the TV version is coming.

[Roy Focker]

Getting ready to order from my car. Logged in 4 stores.

[DewPoint]

I wonder if a TV Focker VF-1S would come with a Hikaru pilot figure.  I need a Misa in space suit to reenact "Bye-Bye Mars." 

[Sanity is Optional]

Well, the VT-1 came with 4 figures, so VF-1S might come with Roy, Hikaru, and Misa?

Given what they've done with pilots so far, I think it's very likely a TV VF-1S release would include both Hikaru and Roy... unless they go the Yamato route and do two releases, one without fast packs that just includes Roy and one with fast packs that just includes Hikaru....
