Mommar Posted October 4, 2020 Posted October 4, 2020 I've been avoiding AE for awhile now anyway. Quote
betocc Posted October 15, 2020 Posted October 15, 2020 They are already list on YJA, one of them actually ended at MSRP: https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/f464272881 Quote
chyll2 Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 That is good, and mandarake usually sells it lower than what YAJ ends up. Quote

I'm eager to see the new finish. Same re: payment from and to Amiami. DHL was just slightly higher than what I was expecting at 6170 JPY for DHL . I'd like to see the video as well, but not available in the states either. -b. Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Can't wait for it. Been too long since my last hit of Macross merch. Quote

chyll2 Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 I actually don't know and I can't remember. I am using credit card so that means I'll get auto billed? Quote

chyll2 Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Thanks guys. Last item from them was Hikaru DX Quote

Because Amiami packs the damn thing in a very oversized box. HLJ's quote is below 4k yen. Go figure. Quote
anubis20 Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Why does Amiami offer EMS, SAL, and airmail when making the payment? Do they hold onto the package hoping EMS will open up in the future? Quote
HardlyNever Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Nin-Nin shipped mine, hopefully will be here sometime next week. Quote

skullmilitia Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Weird there’s no reviews from locals. I want more pics! Quote

Do they hold onto the package hoping EMS will open up in the future? I had an order made about 3-4 months back, on SAL. they have not shipped it out yet. I'm not in a rush to get it, so i'll just treat it as free storage. If the item is gone,then at least I'm certain Amiami will refund me, or least offer me store credit which is actually useful. Quote

Lolicon Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Liking the way the new finish looks. Can't wait to get mine in hand. Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Well, shipping request is in with HLJ for one via DHL. Still waiting for notification from nin-nin on the other. Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 (edited) Got one from Amazon Japan, sold by Amazon. 6 left if anyone is still looking to get one. https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/DX-Chogokin-Macross-Sayonarano-Durandal/dp/B0897ZW6HZ Edit: and now they're gone.

That's cheaper than Amiami after shipping. Damn this lack of EMS to the states! Quote
Slave IV Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 How much was it shipped and did they charge tax? Quote
SuperHobo Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 Detents were added to the chest joint, I assume for greater stability for battroid mode. And here are some pictures of the slightly redesigned hip joint. Source: https://twitter.com/simsim5479 Quote

RedComet Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 (edited) So, semi related tangent... I watched frontier a while ago I didn’t actually get around to watching the false songstress and wings of goodbye until now. But had to see them before my 29 arrived. Anyway, I love Isamu and knew because of the DX figure he would make an appearance, but WTF! Talk about a “Blink and you’ll miss it” cameo. That was under 3 seconds! I had to rewind to take a screenshot. Since Bandai made a figure of this, they better give us a DX cannon fodder and a DX VT-1 someday, cause those both have 500 times the screen time this did Edited October 17, 2020 by RedComet Quote
