derex3592 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 I'll take your extra Regult. If anybody wants to snag me a Glaug tonight on the preorder, I'll gladly pay for it! I'm good for it! Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 CDjapan is usually the perfect place to buy it for people with the money ready. I'm going with this route tonight Quote
lavinrac Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 To soon to sell the regult, but when I do it will only be marked up enough to cover shipping. Scalpers suck Quote
neoexcaliber Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Im hoping this will be a little easier than the regult as maybe people wont need to army-build. I need ONE glaug. I'll probably end up reselling a Regult at some point since i got in on two preorders. within a few mins of each other and was scared to back out of either cart until it went through. One each is enough for me. Regult was easy enough so I think this one will be harder. Bandai loves to watch fans suffer. Quote
treatment Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 here's ami's po-page for the Glaug: http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-015945 11,900 yen cdj and hlj don't have a listing, yet. Quote
jasonmacross83 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 anyone know the east coast time amiami will post the preorders? Quote
sharky Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Regult was easy enough so I think this one will be harder. Bandai loves to watch fans suffer. It is you and your money that Bandai wants. That is why the fans are made to suffer. Quote
SuperMacrossFan2015 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 (edited) Hello All, Pardon the question but I am kind of new to this whole thing. What does it mean when something is called a Web exclusive? OK I am thinking exclusively available on the web but does it also mean fewer produced than a non web exclusive? Would that also mean more expensive as well? This is in reference to the Roy Fokker bandai vf-1s hi metal r 1:100. Thanks in advance for the education.

This is in reference to the Roy Fokker bandai vf-1s hi metal r 1:100. Thanks in advance for the education. It usually means that the item in question is a special or limited edition, but not necessarily limited production, available exclusively through the Manufacture's, or partner's, Web store and, sometimes, select E-tailers like Nippon-Yasan.com; and yes, Web exclusives almost always retail at a higher MSRP then general releases.

This is in reference to the Roy Fokker bandai vf-1s hi metal r 1:100. Thanks in advance for the education. Yes, web exclusive means the items are sold exclusively through a web store, thus requiring the use of a proxy seller such as Nippon-Yassan or Anime-Export to purchase one and sell it on your behalf, as Macross items are not exported from Japan directly. Web exclusive pre-orders are made on a by-demand basis, so when you pre-order in advance you are assured of your order. Bandai DX and other high-end collectibles sold through retailers are often hard to secure, but tend to cost less as they can reduce the RRP. Web exclusives cost more as there are proxy fees involved.

SuperMacrossFan2015 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Thank you for the explanation sir Quote
sharky Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 my brothers in japan. sent me some bad pics. See it in that photo with the VF-1S in the back ground gives me more of a sense of scale. They are going to be decent sized. Hope I can snag one. Quote

Guest davidwhangchoi Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 waiting for hlj. but good price Quote
wmkjr Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 NY: https://www.nippon-yasan.com/figures/15289-hi-metal-r-glaug.html Thanks for the link. Pretty early vs the other sites. Pay later option but I bet it'll change to pay now. Quote
jasonmacross83 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Will Nippon Yasan pull a fast one on us and make us pay much soon as they did with the Fokker exclusive? Quote
jenius Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 well that was easy. Will Nippon Yasan pull a fast one on us and make us pay much soon as they did with the Fokker exclusive? They said it was Tamashii exclusives that require up front payment... so on this one I'd say they probably won't. Quote
jasonmacross83 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 (edited) Good because this is one collectible that NOBODY can pass on Edited January 6, 2016 by jasonmacross83 Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Easiest night ever lol. I was waiting for CDjapan but this will do. Good luck everyone Quote
jasonmacross83 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 For those who snagged one, congrats. Didn't think I was able to get one. Glaug I was wrong Quote
kyekye Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 was waiting for Amiami, but ordered from NY. Don't want to stress out like last time. Quote
