Yes, it's an order from Amazon Japan as the seller, I had to have it shipped to a Tenso address. It was the only pre-order I could get.

[edit] I have now been charged as well.

Does anyone know if I am able to cancel my buyee order since I scored last night on HLJ?

I'm willing to hang onto it if another boardie is interested buying it at the price I got it at as well...

 

edit: already have several people inquiring so I'll stop with them, should anything change I'll be sure to post to try to help anyone out.

To be entirely fair to Bandai, I can actually see the numbering being easy to mess up, because DYRL (and Macross in general, if I remember) uses a non-standard modex format compared with real life carrier aircraft.

Not that it can't happen, but I've never seen a squadron start their numbering at "001."  The squadron lead's plane would be "100," with all the others following after that with 101, 102, etc.

Could also be a mirroring issue, but either way, that's fortunately one of the easiest tampo goofs I can think of to fix.  Still annoying to have to do it, but whether you want to remove the numbers and replace them with other decals, or just scratch off the 1 and paint a single white stripe to the right of the existing zeroes, it's about as simple a fix as you can ask for.

Has the right tail been the only place that's been seen?

Thanks @F360, I probably shouldn't have been so lazy lol. Hopefully it can go to a good home at the very least.

No worries, I’m just used to looking those up due to my bad habits of buy first and plan later.   But normally for most international stores , once you place a order , you are suppose to be committed to it.   Once you paid there’s no going back unless you play cheats .:rolleyes:

I have 36 transaction on FJ that I skipped the protection plan.

Then I am hit by a seller that fail to deliver on the DX Max for 22K yen.

So if I paid the protection every time, it will cost me 400 x 36 yen = 14400 yen

So now I am out by just under 7600 yen.

I think not paying for the plan can be good. Maybe in future I will more careful on selecting the seller and on high risk item (high price PO item), will consider paying the 400 yen for protection.

In general, I will avoid PO on yahoo japan or ebay.

I have never get any PO item delivered on both site.

End up getting Max on AJ for a good price after release. So I will be patient and wait for release day if I missed the PO on normal retailer.

Yeah, I apply this to shipping too. I always choose the cheapest shipping and that has saved me more than enough to insure myself on any order. 

Look forward to seeing all the 1S pics soon and hope I can still at least get one.

Having a chocolate rush while fiddling with Hikaru's DX 1s? 

Not a bad idea, just watch out for the hidden chocolate smears on the valk. :p

The green tea kit kats are awesome.

Don't forget that you can toast them for at least a few mins to make them more crunchier. There are also more flavours as well.

If no one else has claimed, I am interested. I haven't had a chance to get a 1/48 VF-1 yet, or any classic Macross in general and this would be a great starter

I said that to myself. " Just one, I dont need to many of them..." I have like 35 now. But the VF-1S will be a great start for you.
