Lolicon Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 Got my two so I'll have four Alto YF-29s come October/November. Can't believe it's this much hassle to buy a slight revision of a nine year old toy. Quote

Sanity is Optional Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 Ok, I have an order at Nin-nin's original price ($230, plus another $10 in paypal fees) I want to cancel. If anyone wants to take it over I can arrange that as well. Quote

Shukenzero Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 I was refreshing the damn site as I was out. Then I get in the door, sit down a few minutes and I miss the thing! Sod’s law! Quote

Your teeth should be brushed, kids tucked in, bladder emptied, and a bottle of whisky ready before 1400 JST. Quote
skullmilitia Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 thanks again to everyone who helped and posted links, yall are the hero's of F5 nights. Quote

chyll2 Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 thanks. I kept switching the currency to Yen but it always revert to HKD sign while the actual value is in PHP Quote

Seems like it worked ok for a bunch of people once it finally opened though. Hope everyone who wanted this was able to get one. I offered my extra to someone already but if they don’t want it and someone here does, just lmk. Quote
Shukenzero Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 (edited) Hopefully they will have more in stock on release day! It’s stressful enough trying to get these preorders, and since things are a little heated I just wanna say that I’ve always felt the crowd here has been great and we should try and keep things amicable. On that note, if anyone has trouble getting one on release, hit me up as my regular shop will probably be able to nab a few units. Edited June 1, 2020 by Shukenzero Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 As much crap I give NY for pre orders I actually for the first time ever got a DX pre order in at both Amiami and NY. Now pls NY ship my supers Quote
jeniusornome Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 Well, for anyone who was wondering why Bandai would reissue Alto’s YF-29 again, this is a pretty good indicator of how popular he / it is. Quote
technoblue Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 (edited) I had a feeling Alto's YF-29 would sell like bananas again. It's amazing how much pull that design has today, even with only a few minor tweaks. That said, I'm in the minority of those who are not drawn to it so I sat this one out. Sleep was more valuable to me and LEGO is capturing my attention more and more. Edited June 1, 2020 by technoblue Quote
iguanaman8989 Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 Bah, this is one figure I was really looking foreword to, but completely forgot about and slept right through. I’ll just have to wait for release and see what happens then. Quote

Sleep was more valuable to me and LEGO is capturing my attention more and more. Expand Same here. I already have the “black and white” YF-29 duo of Roy and Ozma with super packs and decided to skip. It seems that PO nights are now harder than they used to be a few years ago when I started. If/when DX Roy 1S comes out, I may just wait for release day and see what price I can pick it up for. Quote

Matt Random Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 Woke up to almost 250 email notifications for this thread. I thought this one would be easier. Congratulations to those who managed to get one and best of luck to those who are still looking. Hopefully some will be available upon release. It's crazy that this is such a challenging hobby. Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 I missed out at HLJ because I had an out of stock item from the last PO madness in my cart! By the time I removed the old item and tried to checkout again it was gone Quote
Muzaffar Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 I already have the 2nd version of the YF-29 so I'm not gonna sweat it. It's still in fighter mode all these years lol. I do however have a question about Nin-Nin Games. Are they reliable for pre-orders like HLJ, Hobby search, CD japan and AmiAmi? Quote

I sent them an email already to cancel them. Quote

I haven't had issues with them with my orders but it seems some have. You can still get your money back if ever they don't deliver. Quote
