Yeah no official shipping notice, but my order status says in shipping process now since that shipping charge update.

Maybe by tomorrow morning I'll see something (I know it is Monday there already, but still.. I can dream).

Might be because I ordered EMS.. the first estimate for SAL or what have you may have been correct if you did that.

I did EMS too.  I never do SAL.  I'd do FedEx every time if CDJapan would let me.

How do I get a vf31 a? Why is this one limited release?

It's limited because it's a Tamashii Web Exclusive item. We don't know what's the actual basis on how Bandai sometimes categorize such an item for exclusive release rather than normal release. And when an item get released via exclusive then make sure you preorder it before it gets released because once it gets released there's no asurance that Bandai will re-release it again. Hence, a limited quantity reelase. And never that Bandai did re-release a Macross TWE item.

How to get them? Mostly Nippon-Yasan, CDJapan, MyKombini, BigInJapan, and Loopaza mostly carries the TWE items. If not, you can check Yahoo Japan Auction and pay extra for using proxy with fees and shipping.

After I did some YJA browsing, I kind of getting concern now on my VF-31A order. Prices are climbing up already by scalpers. Hope NY will not ask for more before they ship it. And as of this moment, there's no shipping notification yet from NY.

NY is probably sorting out their orders so I think they will ship likely late this week. NY so far commits to all My paid pre orders so I’m not worried about not receiving my 31As

As for their extra stocks, I’m sure they will be available at a premium according to the price on YJP.

Mykombini canceled my preorder and refunded all money. I'm frustrated

That really sucks. I ordered through them and haven't gotten a shipping notice yet either, if this doesn't work out I'll gladly swear them off forever.

I accidentally ordered one on AE but I wont push through with it since they have this weird Shipping option on they have the decision on what shipping option they want (plus they are not clear if they are willing to change the value of the item). Unfortunately, there is no way to change the email address so I really cannot share it here.

Looked at one listing that @chyll2 has linked for us to see and there's one listing asking close to $1K USD (or $1.3K CND).  Are you freaking dead serious?? :blink: 

@enphily: Hope that you can source out another means of getting the 31a.

Well crap, that blows.

Maybe they'll do a second production run since the demand was so high?

It looks like my case earlier was error on their part or maybe a result when I tried to edit my shipping address (as experiment)

 

sorry enphily, I was meaning to give it to you but it was cancelled before I was able to.

Hmm, NY already shipped mine 4 hours ago.

I understand everyone’s excited and/or anxious, but if you got yours from NY it’s practically guaranteed you’ll get it. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of them failing to fulfill a preorder.

Mine hasn’t shipped from NY yet.  Maybe later today or tomorrow.  Yeah I agree.  NY always comes through.

No news from NY here. I’m not worried though; I’ve never had an issue with them before. 

Keep those pics coming!
