Dobber Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 Man, I REALLY hope I can get one of these. The 1J sold quickly but was still not too hard to get if you stayed/got up for the preorder start. The 1A on the other hand was ridiculously hard/near impossible within seconds of sales starting. Chris Quote
Guyffon Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 Saw the missile set selling for 8480 yen in a shop at akihabara, thats almost twice the price I paid for mine Quote

valhary Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 Even the old yamato 1/48 has a better head sculpted particularly the width bothers me reminds me the hydrocephalus model kit 1/72 Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 Btw, Mandarake's got 2 sets of the missiles available: One for 6,000yen, the other for 8,000. Both are unopened. Quote
beatsing Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 I like this VF-1S even if the tampo markings are excessive. It looks like the ver Ka Gundams with markings covering the robot. he he Quote

Just imagine the most painfully obvious thing to say in each instance, and you'll know exactly what he's saying. That dude has a funny name Quote

The line art generally shows the head a bit bigger. Quote
Chronocidal Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 Boy I hope CD Japan doesn't have issues sending the missile sets I ordered. That seems to be the only TWE release they attempted before they stopped carrying them. Quote

F360 Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 The price for these missiles is going up fast . It’s gonna be for the Vf-1j. , vf-1a. , and the vf-1s / strike/fastpacks. I can see it running dry very quick now . Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 Waiting for my proxy to get the missiles in, so I can have the big ol' package shipped my way. Quote

I usually buy in NY, when I was ready to do it they weren't available. Thanks for the link, I guess now there's nothing better than that. Quote

Chronocidal Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 Anyone heard from CD Japan, or try ordering there? I'm tempted to put in an order just as a backup, since they seem to have ditched all of their TWE offers for the future. Quote
ErikElvis Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 I accidentally ordered 4 missile sets from NY. Ordered 2 then forgot I ordered and ordered 2 more. Maybe it is a good thing. Quote

eggy99 Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 AE emailed to say my missile order is ready to ship. How long can AE hold items in storage for? It's not listed on their site anywhere. Quote
Ridden001 Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 Will someone please list the time in eastern us and day conversion for the pre order? Someone often does it but I can’t renember who it is. It has the actual date here and then the actual time. Quote

Someone often does it but I can’t renember who it is. It has the actual date here and then the actual time. All we know is it's on June 3rd. As of what time? There's a big chance that's it's going to be the same as before. Around 4pm Japan time. https://www.worldtimebuddy.com/?qm=1&lid=1850147,5&h=1850147&date=2019-6-3&sln=16-17 Or just Google: June 3 4pm in EST To be safe, just add a calendar alarm on your phone. Hope that helps. Edited May 27, 2019 by no3Ljm Quote

ScrambledValkyrie Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 I got the preparation in progress email from NY for the missile set. Quote
