Luna Park still have this open 

"Use code NEWCUSTOMER for ¥2000 off"

https://www.lunapark.store/product-page/dx-chogokin-vf-1d-valkyrie-fan-racer-japan-version

 

Thanks for the link! Grabbed one, with that code the price isn't too bad, but shipping seems a bit weird. Do they charge later with an updated price? I didn't choose an actual shipping option, and shipping was a random, flat price.

This would be awesome:

This is my favorite alternate paint scheme. I have a spare yellowed Yamato GBP and VF-1 that I want to paint up like this. Someday I will get an airbrush and a place to paint

Back from Christmas holiday, missed the 1D pre-order, damn, feels bad. I didn't even know it went up, what a stupid ass day for pre-orders, even an exclusive.

I have an extra if you want it.

EDIT: Saw you got one.

I think I’ll open another VF-1S Roy so that I can use my custom stickers that I received and convert it to a VF-1S Hikaru.

im not sure since I haven't preorder from them, but others seems to get their item, so I would say a upgrade to fedex or DHL would be required if EMS is still suspended in July of 2021.

I knew it, I knew it, I knew it! Had a hunch that it will go for 30k yen and it did. 

https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1155257895&ref=list&keyword=マクロス&lang=en

The one I listed for 20k yen couple of days ago was a steal at that price.

And then one for 25k

I'm sure there will be more Roys around 25k-27k, there are still plenty of Roys below 26k in YJA anyway.

I was emailing with Luna Park about my 1D order and I asked if they are still taking orders for the TV Supers April release. They are apparently. 

Would they would refund you if they cant get it? :mellow:

ie not store credit.

It's infectious! Did the same just now. First DX VF-1 I decided to grab.

I've got all of them so far but the 1A's. Holding out for Max DYRL 1A. 

I was lucky during the great Roy preorder madness of 2020.

And tv supers just got mailed to me today... Or just got mailed to me tomorrow, since Japan is in the future

Anyone that ordered TV Supers from NY have theirs shipped yet?

Mine is not even  "preparation in progress" let alone shipped. Could be due to the holiday, but I have mentally prepared myself for the worst.

Speaking of Supers again, any of us waiting on Kurama get shipping notice yet? I know there are a few of us.

I have not.  I paid the 75 USD Fedex Invoice, but they have not sent notice these have shipped.

 Same here. No signs from NY except an email at the beginning of december saying that there was a release date change. Honestly i have a bad feeling about this...i am pretty sure i will get screwed again.

Well let’s just hope NY is lagging due to the holidays. Based on all the negative feedback they’ve gotten here I knew it was a gamble, but with the 10 orders I’ve placed with them throughout the years I’ve never been burned.

I’m in the same boat, sent messages asking them to finalize shipping cost for me but they seem rather slow to respond.

maybe  Kurama is waiting it out to ship it after the christmas peak because Fedex and DHL adds a extra surcharge for shipping near big holidays .

unfortuniatly Fedex is going to extend this surcharge pass January 2021 instead of Christmas.

Kurama is based in Hong Kong. My assumption is any TWEs get shipped from Japan to HK first before going out to the buyers.

My Super Parts arrived by DHL 20 minutes ago.  I’ll pick them up from the drop off location maybe tomorrow.
