I had checked Loopaza before I ever posted and they were sold out.  I guess they got a couple more stock then sold out again???

 

Kurama Shop...I just ordered one but I'm definitely not happy that they are $50-100 more than almost everyone else.

Plus I've seen some negative reviews about them being super slow to ship. 

 

Any MW members order a few extra and want to part with one now?  Haha

Probably not an issue with this group, but I'm up for buying a few sets of the missiles from those that feel they were an unnecessary price increaser for this release.

I have more than enough YF-19s.....yet....felt the need to get this one mostly for its accessories . Wish there were more differences between this one and the Advanced. There's still time to rectify the inverted black/red situation, landing gears and more. This DX YF-19 was most likely a way to recup on the Frontier mold. (maybe all isn't lost for another Chronos variant! Been waiting a long time for that announcement... I truly love the Chronos.)

As for a DX YF-21, would be great, but not sure it'll be something Bandai would invest in.  Arcadia will most likely get there first. Meanwhile, will have to make do with the old 1/60 Yammy, mine's still holding up and displaying great after all those years.

Gone. I updated my post.

[DWN013]

Well.  I thought I had heard that this one was general release, so i spaced out and didn't order right away.  Came on here and kind of panicked, but my wife is such an awesome babe, she found one just now on Yodobashi (I usually use Rakuten but they're sold out)

Sorry for those that don't live in Japan.

meanwhile, Bandai seems like "corrected" (photoshopped?) the colors and now has a newer moar extensive yf-19 page:

Thanks for the roundup! I believe you would have to through a proxy for animatejapan. 

[protostar8]

Has anyone ever ordered from Yodobashi or animate?

It looks like there is a proxy service called Anislo that lets you order from Animate.

[rdrunner]

I tried to put together a not very good summary of the PO windows from the main vendors based on the time stamps of the comments of when orders were up/sold out.

Thanks - I'm sure I got a few things wrong so please let me know and I'll repost with more accurate info.  this was my first PO experience so I wanted to note down for future reference.

[technoblue]

It's worth watching https://mykombini.com/ too. They posted Golden Week holiday hours on their front page. The YF-19 pre-order has yet to be listed.

Ami ami had orders still available until abt 515 or so. I remembered because i went for CDJ instead abt then since i wasn't sure if HLJ recorded my order.

I didn't expect them to fix this. Too late now I think.  It would be nice to get an additional decal for us to fix ourselves though.

Just grab some Hasegawa decals honestly.. Even the 1/48th versions will be smaller text than Bandai's monstrous markings.

I'm going to keep one mint probably, but I'm already planning some fairly extensive paint and marking mods to apply.

I'm going to update the prices on HS and AA as well.

Thanks, just trying to give something back... many others were kind enough to share live links in the heat of the PO and I got one of mine because of an early warning on HLJ.

I think I might do that actually.  Can you get Hasegawa water decals on their own or do I have to get the actual model set LOL

haha Now i see what you meant!

Bandai is following anime magic! In the magazine and video (in Bandai's page!) we see the ventral fins as outer black.
However in the special page and product listing it is outer red!

[iguanaman8989]

Got one at HLJ!

Went to bed before I got a confirmation. Figured that if it came through, great, if not, I still have my Arcadia.

Could be different revisions of their YF-19 model for taking publicity pictures

just hope its not a photoshop of the ventral fins...There was a mini bruhaha over the 19 advanced due to photoshop of wing tabs, so the actual product differed from promo.

So i wonder which versions we are getting!

I got my Amiami order in at 5:22

[Lolicon]

Hmmm maybe I can scale up the Hasegawa decal sheet to fix Shinsei on it... Unless Hasegawa also spelled it like Bandai. 

[Shizuka the Cat]

Since the DX VF-31A pre-orders were before my time, I was wondering...

How did pre-order day for the DX VF-19 compare?  Easier? Sell out faster?  Curious as to people's impressions who experienced both events.

Thanks!  Maybe they have been up for about 30 mins altogether, but I think the site also crashed on a few of us who were in the middle of placing an order.
