Lolicon Posted October 30, 2018 Posted October 30, 2018 (edited) I think the Lil Drakens look better on the 31S than the 31J. Edited October 30, 2018 by Lolicon extra pics for fun Quote
seti88 Posted October 30, 2018 Posted October 30, 2018 The similar colors make the drakens look like they are part of the 31S color scheme...arad is just made for accessories! Quote

iguanaman8989 Posted October 30, 2018 Posted October 30, 2018 I’m not a fan of installing the battroid mode clips. It looks really cool, but sliding them along the painted edge of the wing just makes me super nervous. Quote

Edit: Removed my previous posts as I didn't do it properly. Here's is another suggestion: Put a very thin layer of clear nail polish (on the painted part of Messer's wings and let it cure before putting on the clips. Edited October 30, 2018 by borgified Quote

Saburo Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 Another hanger test shot of Arad's VF-31S. Quote
Lolicon Posted November 1, 2018 Posted November 1, 2018 Friend emailed me earlier asking if I got my 31A yet. Told him I've had mine since April. He then cursed NY and wished he had just taken my usual offer to preorder an extra valk for him. Another satisfied customer! Quote

Unless you pre ordered anywhere else than NY, if u had pre ordered for him thru NY, I think you won’t have either your own or his, as NY fudged the order for people whom made multiple orders, sans 2 or was it 3 guys here Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted November 1, 2018 Posted November 1, 2018 There were 2 people who received their orders for 2 x 31As. NY has offered to reduce orders for multiple copies to 1 and ship out sooner rather than later. I’m waiting on mine. IDGAF if it takes another year. I will continue bugging them until I get what I paid for. Quote

I won't be doing business with them again. The irony is that I offered to reduce down to 1 if that meant I would be more certain of getting 1 and refund the remaining amount, and they steadfastly refused to do so. Quote

There's just no consistency there. I asked them if it was possible to reduce my order and refund the other, and they did it within minutes, but there was no discussion about an actual refund, they just immediately sent it to store credit, and didn't even bother to ask me whether that was acceptable. I dunno. I would have liked to have both, but in hindsight I'd rather have different markings on the second one anyway. Edited November 1, 2018 by Chronocidal Quote

Did NY already sent you emails before stating that they will give you store credit since they don't refund? I did before with my one order from them, but I just ignored it and kept on asking the status until it went to in preparation. Quote

borgified Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) Amazon Japan has the Movie Version 31f listed up at roughly 18.4k yen at 15% off the regular listed price if anyone wants their copy. I know.. I bit the bullet too early to get my copy right way as I would have saved 3.1k yen by now. Edit: Speaking of the Movie Version of the 31f, I found another review.

That’s the game we collectors love to play. We can’t predict stuff. What if you didn’t bit the bullet early and now you’re paying more than MSRP because it’s hard to get it? That ‘statement’ will change but not the ‘sad face emoticon’. What matters is you’re happy that you have it. Period. Quote

Thank you @Alex GS! I did a bunch of test shots so I can see composition and fine tune my lighting and to try out various setups. You should open the 31S and swoosh it around a bit. Quote

But its cheap i have to buy it. LOL! I keep looking at this new 31F and forcing myself to leave it. I already have one plus 2 of the previous release. Edited November 2, 2018 by Sandman Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 Same here, I always have to talk myself out of getting another copy when I see one cheaper lol. “Hmmmm, I have 3 already but this one is $10 cheaper. Should probable get another....wait..no..stop” Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 ...That's how I ended up with 4 DX YF-19s, the one off of Amazon Japan was just so cheap. Also why I have 3 pre-orders for the DX VF-1J... Quote
