SaitouSad Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Just putting it out there again that I managed to acquire a spare on HLJ in the chaos, and if anybody is keen, feel free to hit me up.(Though preferably from Singapore as the additional shipping would be a killer for those in other countries).Otherwise, I'll just release it and cancel it on HLJ, and it should pop up again whenever.

Valk-1S Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 who ever missed out in aus you can get it locally from TFIdownunder now http://www.tfidownunder.com/shop/dx-chogokin-yf-29b-parcivale-rod-use/ How reliable is this seller? I got a feeling that they will not be able to fullfil all the YF-29B preorders. Quote

Thanks lancalot. I'll have a look at it. Bandai has burned a few sellers in the past where they took preorders and not being able to fullfil it. Hope his supplier is reliable. Quote

lancalot Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 ahh did you buy the Zero from him? yeah... as i was the one to ask him to order macross in.... and trying to support a local Quote
spanner Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 yeah... as i was the one to ask him to order macross in.... and trying to support a local We definitely need more local support for our hobby! Quote
xrentonx Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 (edited) Hopefully he'll pull through. A few years ago we had a local place in northern CA who tried that and a bunch of us tried to order from them but they got nothing. I ordered as a backup plan. Lucky thing they didn't ask for payment up front. Nowadays when it comes to Bandai Valks, I only order from six stores and they're all based in Japan. BBTS used to carry some Bandai Valks but either HG put the screws to them or fulfillment was just too much of a hassle. Edited March 4, 2015 by xrentonx Quote
Scream Man Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 i'd be OK with sydney sellers getting Macross stuff in Quote

Valk-1S Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 he actually in brisbane.... but at least it in australia .. im surprised he actually sold out now... there's more macross fan than i expected.... but then again the yf29b is a pretty bird I think he didn't take that many orders in the first place. When I had a look at it, there was only 5 pieces for order. Hopefully with the small numbers, he will be able to fulfil it. Quote

DarkHawk Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 The preorder is active on hlj.com right now ..... Quote
Double Spy Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 frakk HLJ and there hidden preorders. always out of stock. Quote
Duymon Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) Even though I have two po's I'm not super duper excited about this one lol. It's just another 29 recolored. Kinda wish the B meant something (kinda like the super duper awesome vf-0B. full double seaters ftw) Edited June 4, 2015 by Duymon Quote
no3Ljm Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Agree. Different head unit somehow will add to its uniqueness as '29B'. Quote
Loop Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) I am still liking the paint on this one myself, but I never really had the compulsion to buy multiples of the same color scheme YF-29. I thought about it a few times with the Ozma variant, but was able to muster some willpower. Edited June 6, 2015 by Loop Quote
xrentonx Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 This is actually the one I'm most excited about out of my current Bandai preorders (even over the 19 Advanced) because of the color scheme. I own a ton of 29s too! Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) i just cancelled my 29b from hlj. i thought about having two when i don't even like the 29. so i'm just keeping my cd japan order. just cancelled my cdjapan order as well. Edited June 5, 2015 by davidwhangchoi Quote
Valkyrie2008 Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 i just cancelled my 29b from hlj. i thought about having two when i don't even like the 29. so i'm just keeping my cd japan order. just cancelled my cdjapan order as well. I don't like the design of the 29 either, but I do like this color. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) I don't like the design of the 29 either, but I do like this color. i think so too. i thought about getting it bc the color looks so great. but then i thought about it and i'd prob sell it off after opening it due to not liking the busy ness and brick like dimensions of the center body in fighter mode. Edited June 5, 2015 by davidwhangchoi Quote
Sandman Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 The 29 has actually really grown on me. Didn't like the design that much at first. Slowly got used it to it. It's one of the few valks that has it super parts color matched to the valk. Quote
Duymon Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) I'm paranoid and will kill my CDJ order for this after I get my VF-19 lol. I think I'll only get more than 2 of a particular 29 if they release a low-viz version like in the Mac 30 game. The 29 has actually really grown on me. Didn't like the design that much at first. Slowly got used it to it. It's one of the few valks that has it super parts color matched to the valk. Same here. I hated it but then grew to love it, but not enough to get more than 2 of each I kinda wish they'd release the 3 Itasha 29's (sheryl , ranka from 1/100 kits and the Mac 30 DLC). I figure if you use the same mold with a different paint job why not go baller? Edited June 5, 2015 by Duymon Quote

Would probably end up buy it from you, David. But good thing you didn't. Still contemplating on this one just for the color. The 29 has actually really grown on me. Didn't like the design that much at first. Slowly got used it to it. It's one of the few valks that has it super parts color matched to the valk. Is the webshop exclusive Super Parts already announced for this Valk? Thanks. Same here. I hated it but then grew to love it, but not enough to get more than 2 of each I kinda wish they'd release the 3 Itasha 29's (sheryl , ranka from 1/100 kits and the Mac 30 DLC). I figure if you use the same mold with a different paint job why not go baller? I agree. It's the only reason I would buy multiples YF-29 and VF-25. Quote
Scream Man Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 i wouldnt even accept those for free. They'd just take room on my shelf I could use for better schemes. The 29 is in my Top 3 macross Fighters, and the toys are all great. i can;y wait for this one! Quote
Old Man Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 i think so too. i thought about getting it bc the color looks so great. but then i thought about it and i'd prob sell it off after opening it due to not liking the busy ness and brick like dimensions of the center body in fighter mode. I think it's the "brick like dimensions of the center body in fighter mode" that is keeping me from pulling the trigger on this, even though I really like the color. I wonder why it never bothered me with the 2 versions I currently have. Quote
spanner Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 i wouldnt even accept those for free. They'd just take room on my shelf I could use for better schemes. The 29 is in my Top 3 macross Fighters, and the toys are all great. i can;y wait for this one! I have to agree somewhat.. The 29 is a great bird and my appreciation for them has risen considerably but I feel there could be better paint schemes done for them than these. As much as I love Ranka and like Sheryl I just don't get these art paint schemes and I doubt they would fit in nicely with my current displays. Although I'd probably still take them for free but struggle to display them. Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 I'm looking forward to this. I really like the colors. Quote
