Guest davidwhangchoi Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Can't wait to get mine. i pre paid a while back so hopefully i'll get a tracking number soon. Quote
funkymonkeyjavajunky Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 So, does this mean payment for HLJ is still a week away? Quote
Gwynne Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) Nippon yasan is pretty good on their preorders so you should be good . But the dollar to yen just drop big since last Friday so now it cost a bit more . Hey I saved $8 by paying the other day Edited August 25, 2015 by Gwynne Quote
treatment Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Yeah. They exchange-rate is going down the crapper right now. The shipping-fees is where it's gonna hurt the most. Quote
no3Ljm Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) Yehey! HLJ payment notification! Edit: Whoops. Wait wait wait. My bad. It was just for the Hasegawa SDF-1 Movie ver kit. Sorry about that. Edited August 25, 2015 by no3ljm Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) You got me!!! I'm waiting for HLJ's payment notification. Edited August 26, 2015 by Ignacio Ocamica Quote
spanner Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) hopefully soon we'll get some sort of shipping or order prep notification soon.. Edited August 26, 2015 by spanner76 Quote
sh9000 Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) Still waiting for a payment request from Amiami. Gonna ship it with SAL. Edited August 26, 2015 by sh9000 Quote
seti88 Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) Hey I saved $8 by paying the other day what would add insult to injury is 'IF' the rates improve drastically next few weeks...but btr secure this hot cake first...plus you wouldnt know if its worse rates ... ok time to plan for vf-0s and the reactive.... ... Edited August 26, 2015 by seti88 Quote
Lolicon Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 As long as it's not like 74 yen to the dollar like in recent years. Now that was a brutal rate. Quote
spanner Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 Hey I saved $8 by paying the other day $8!!! woo! think of all the things you can't buy with that! hehe! Quote
koonfasa Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 I just saw the ep10 Legend of Zero. Is that the VF-0A? Best episode yet. Quote
Reïvaj Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 I just saw the ep10 Legend of Zero. Is that the VF-0A? Best episode yet. Yep, that's the VF-0A. Quote
Pedro2k6 Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 I just saw the ep10 Legend of Zero. Is that the VF-0A? Best episode yet. Legend of zero? What is that?.. Quote
Lorindor Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 Pedro2k6, The Legend of Zero is an episode of Macross Frontier when they are, in-universe, shooting a movie based on the events of Macross Zero. Quote
technoblue Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 As long as it's not like 74 yen to the dollar like in recent years. Now that was a brutal rate. Yeah 2012 was a tough year for the US dollar. I went ahead and paid for my 0A. I'm taking the glass half full approach, thinking that the stock market fuss is more of a correction for China. If things recover in a couple of weeks, it's no big deal. Quote

Yeah, that's the only drawback when you preorder stuff from HLJ and AmiAmi. You need to wait for their email payment notification with payment links first before you can pay your items. Not like with Nippon-Yasan, you can pay whenever you want. But like everyone says here... you can't beat HLJ's Customer Service. Edited August 26, 2015 by no3ljm Quote

Guest davidwhangchoi Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 (edited) told you Roy's fins are blue i was about to post the pic but saw it posted already. lol Edited August 27, 2015 by davidwhangchoi Quote
Shukenzero Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Yeah 2012 was a tough year for the US dollar. I went ahead and paid for my 0A. I'm taking the glass half full approach, thinking that the stock market fuss is more of a correction for China. If things recover in a couple of weeks, it's no big deal. Looks like it won't take weeks. The market is recovering already. Quote
neoexcaliber Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 (edited) I told you guys the fins would be blue! Aaaaaaarrrghhhh! Arcadia is really bad at picking colours. And if you guys think the USD is bad, you should take a look at the rest of the world. Our currencies are doing so much worse. Edited August 27, 2015 by neoexcaliber Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 (edited) come to think of it the 0s it's fins are blue that sure isn't black I told you guys the fins would be blue! Aaaaaaarrrghhhh! Arcadia is really bad at picking colours. And if you guys think the USD is bad, you should take a look at the rest of the world. Our currencies are doing so much worse. i said "told you so" first but i'm just messing around... the Os fins are really "black/grey" not Shin 0a Blue. it will be normal.

I'll wait till the 0A arrives before bitching about the colour again. I'm probably panicking because I personally think they got the 0D's blue wrong. Quote

spanner Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 On the other hand, there's a lot more you can buy with $8 than with 0 this is true.. like a Gloria Jean coffee for example! I would kill for one of those right now! Quote
technoblue Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Roll resistance on the 0S... Fail. Well, I'm in. Quote
abbadon Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 (edited) I'll take one! or 2, because of the Reactive Armor... Aaargh!!! Edited August 27, 2015 by abbadon Quote
no3Ljm Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Makes me want to cry after seeing too much Tan, Ube, Avocado and wrong shades of Blues and Grey colored Valks across this board... this one makes my heart melt and refreshed. Nothing ever beats the classic White colored Valks. Well... assuming that it's the 'correct' shade of white. But so far lately, there's no such thing as 'correct shade' at Arcadia. Hahaha! Anyways, regarding the leg fins. Based on that photo, Arcadia painted it in reverse. The big portion now is grey instead of black? And still missing the red stripes on the head lasers.

ArchieNov Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 That pose really highlights the lack of a decent ankle tilt. Wish they used a different pose instead. Or maybe allow the ankle to extend further down to give it more tilt room when doing extreme poses like this. Quote
