Darth Mingus Posted December 12, 2016 Posted December 12, 2016 I got a confirmation email from AmiAmi today that they were able to secure a preorder I put in on Saturday. There may be a bunch of cancellations which explains why there are some additional units available. Good hunting, 5 days to go. Quote
aurance Posted December 12, 2016 Posted December 12, 2016 (edited) Do you have to part-swap the flat hands to fit in the wing? EDIT: woops, nevermind, just saw that picture with the newly articulated fingers Edited December 12, 2016 by aurance Quote
SuperHobo Posted December 12, 2016 Posted December 12, 2016 Nice transformation video. It's funny seeing all of the "high quality" and "caution" logos at the same. Gives me mixed messages. Interesting feature around the neck, I wonder if that's to better secure that section. I'm pretty eager to get his in hand to see how far Bandai has evolved with their valkyrie design work. Quote
sh9000 Posted December 12, 2016 Posted December 12, 2016 Can't wait. The 31J is going to fit right in my detolf of Valkyries with blue schemes. Quote
Scyla Posted December 12, 2016 Posted December 12, 2016 I've watched the video and I'm kinda scared about the "broken" part. Do they mean if you don't extend the rear fuselage back when transforming it to Battroid-Mode you will break the intake looking plastic piece? Other than that I'm totally in love with the VF-31 design. Especially the paint layout and colors of Delta Squadron. Quote
jrhudson311 Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 This has probably been asked a ton, and there might not even be a answer, but do we have a idea when this bird is going to be released? Thanks, Quote

I have the same thinking Quote
jrhudson311 Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 This upcoming weekend. basically anytime Fri-Sun? Quote
wmkjr Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 (edited) December 17 in Japan is the estimated release date. http://tamashii.jp/item/11475/ Edited December 13, 2016 by wmkjr Quote
spanner Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 (edited) Dec 17 means I won't see this until into the new year sadly.. Especially if HLJ are busy or delay payment requests and shipping. And the postal system down here goes into an almost meltdown state this time of year, often resulting in doubling delivery times due to the work load. I guess with MWF being down for a week till just after xmas means I won't have to suffer seeing others get theirs and having to wait longer for mine. Edited December 13, 2016 by spanner Quote
abbadon Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 Can't wait to get this thing soon! It's release coincides with the Macrossworld's week long site maintenance. I hope everyone who managed to preorder this guy, have a smooth transaction with their favorite shops. Enjoy the toy and Happy Holidays, guys! Peace and love! Quote

Even if MWF is down, Spanner, I know you're still going to browse some sites esp twitter and google search. What I suggest is to stay away from the net sir! Hehehe. Quote

Hehehe. funny enough my internet access bill is overdue so if I don't pay it im sure it'll be disconnected somewhere between now and the VF-31 release date so that'll solve that issue! hehe!

Sandman Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 The site being down that week is really going to damper excitement an discussion on this new bird. Sure we'll talk about it the week after but it won't be the same. Quote
spanner Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 oh wait.. I still have my mobile data so that'll never work. Oh well! pain and suffering it is then! Quote
Lolicon Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 Hey spanner I'll happily email you pics of mine while the forums are down. Quote
sh9000 Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 There's always the Macross World facebook page to visit when this site is down. While you're there, you can like my recent HMR pic. Quote
Raptor One Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 Any idea when Messer preorders will go up? And also, that huge gap behind the cockpit in fighter mode worries me a bit. It worries me too since it's been there pretty consistently. My YF-30 doesn't have that, but it's not outside the realm of possibility that they got it right then and messed it up here. Quote
General Rasp Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 Did anyone else notice the Ace Combat music and sound affects in the first half of the video? lol. It is a shame they didn't have any English translations, on the new Gundam boxes and instructions they are adding English descriptions. Quote
no3Ljm Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 (edited) Pointers and Features. I like the new front open lid box packaging. Edited December 13, 2016 by no3Ljm Quote
spanner Posted December 14, 2016 Posted December 14, 2016 Cool music! Still not sure about those rear landing gear.. But thinking I want more than one now! Gahhh! Quote
Cowboy17 Posted December 14, 2016 Posted December 14, 2016 I ended up cancelling my 31J. I just picked up two valks today, both of which i'd rather have over the 31J any day of the week. Spending too much money lately on this stuff, had to put a stop to it somewhere and the 31J didn't make the cut. I can always get one of the others later I guess. Quote

spanner Posted December 14, 2016 Posted December 14, 2016 who did you cancel it with? I want to order a second one! so do we know which VF-31 variant will be next? Im hoping Mirages! Quote
no3Ljm Posted December 14, 2016 Posted December 14, 2016 who did you cancel it with? I want to order a second one! so do we know which VF-31 variant will be next? Im hoping Mirages! Ha! And I was about to ask the same thing for my 'first' one. Quote
Mommar Posted December 14, 2016 Posted December 14, 2016 who did you cancel it with? I want to order a second one! so do we know which VF-31 variant will be next? Im hoping Mirages! Looks like Messer. Quote
spanner Posted December 14, 2016 Posted December 14, 2016 I was hoping for Mirage's Valkyrie but Messer's is still good. I wonder who will be after that!? again fingers crossed for Mirage! Quote
