sumyumgoy Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 If anyone has an extra issue 105 for purchase please let me know! My friend's issue was missing a part and he needs another one. Quote

sumyumgoy Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 Issue #107 is up on HLJ. https://www.hlj.com/space-battleship-yamato-2202-1-350-yamato-weekly-magazine-107-hsjwym107 Quote
oshanmacross Posted February 10, 2021 Posted February 10, 2021 Still no word back from them on the issue count, but this is what I found on their site some years ago when this all started: On this page: https://hcj.jp/2202/faq.html Quote
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 This can't be right: My guess is that this one of the preorders for the Andromeda issues...? Quote

I think you may be right. A friend of mine said that the same thing happened for the Valkyrie issues. We both ended up putting preorders in for 111 to 170. If it really is for the Andromeda, at least it will save us some weekly stress for those issues! Quote
sumyumgoy Posted February 15, 2021 Posted February 15, 2021 My friend used Google translate on the Andromeda flyer that came in one of the issues. Looks like issues 111 and up are indeed for the Andromeda. Quote

Valkyrie Hunter D Posted February 16, 2021 Posted February 16, 2021 Dang, I wonder how many issues it'll take for the Andromeda. Another 110? Quote
easnoddy Posted February 16, 2021 Posted February 16, 2021 The fact the turrets don't rotate on the Andromeda is a disappointment IMO. Quote

Friend found some more info on the Andromeda. It looks like it is going to be 60 issues based on this website and seems to align with what is on HLJ. https://ourstarblazers.com/vault/516a/ 3 minutes ago, easnoddy said: The fact the turrets don't rotate on the Andromeda is a disappointment IMO. Yea, it's a bummer that it isn't automated but I am glad that it is only 60 issues. I was a little worried in investing another 2 years and cash into it so I'm pretty content to not have some of the gimmicks. Just the prospect of having an Andromeda of this scale on my wall is pretty exciting! Quote
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted February 17, 2021 Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) I'm so tempted to go for another 60 issues, but I ought to cool it. I still have other partworks kits that need attention. Edited February 17, 2021 by Valkyrie Hunter D Quote

Valkyrie Hunter D Posted February 20, 2021 Posted February 20, 2021 Still hoping for 1/350 scale kit of the UX-01 dimensional sub-it's my second favorite ship from 2199. My rough numbers would place such a thing to be around a foot long. Quote

oshanmacross Posted February 20, 2021 Posted February 20, 2021 104 105 is still available per hacthette mail order... Hachette Yamato mail order Hobby Link Japan has still not fulfilled my preorder for 105. Panic time, LOL Quote

We used Zenmarket but I'm sure any of the other options would work too. He actually just had to order a replacement #105 direct through them since his issue was missing a piece (part 105-3). Mine is still in Private Warehouse with HLJ so hopefully it is not a prevalent issue but you guys might want to check yours just in case. Quote
oshanmacross Posted February 21, 2021 Posted February 21, 2021 Wonder if they are reprinting 105 because of this issue missing a piece. I'll hold off a bit but just in case, I'll order through a proxy if no restock through HLJ in a week or two. Just checked Amazon JP and a few JP book stores and out of stock. lol, I don't see the display case on Hachette mail order but I do see the binders. Quote

I could use a replacement. Warning about glueing the AA turrets down... Quote
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted March 4, 2021 Posted March 4, 2021 Woo hoo, the last issues are in the warehouse-time to ship 'em and finally finish this big bastard! Quote

Damn, that's weird that they don't have it on their site. I was tried to look but Amazon is out of stock and HLJ is backordered. Hope you are able to find one. Quote
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted March 10, 2021 Posted March 10, 2021 It is time: Lol, a few of these boxes are twice as thick as the regular issues. Quote

oshanmacross Posted March 10, 2021 Posted March 10, 2021 (edited) For those looking to create or order a display case here are the dimensions from the Hachette site: 44.5cm × 115cm x 36cm Might be able to cheat and save a little $ as theirs looks a little oversized. Once mine is finished I'll get some more accurate measurements. My friend suggested a screencap printed starfield background and that got me really psyched, lol! I'll let you guys know if I find anything reasonable. Who knows maybe we can do a small group buy. But might just end up using lucite/heat gun/3d printing. Edited March 11, 2021 by oshanmacross Quote
