Vi-RS Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Just saw this on FB, and I'm sorry if it's been posted before. Pictures attached for those who don't agree with Mark Zuckerberg. Quote

HardlyNever Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 It's looking great; I'm not going to nitpick something that does so many things right. I like the fatter feet (compared to the v2) and the Gerwalk antenna. I stand by the idea that you can't make a flawless (in all modes) perfect or near-perfect transformation vf-1. Still no notification from AmiAmi, unfortunately. But I'm excited to get this next year. I think it will be worth the wait. Quote

Lolicon Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Looks great! Waiting for the Amiami payment request to show up in my inbox. Gotta find some big ejection seat triangles and gonna need to paint those landing gear... Quote
davidwhangchoi Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 holy! more pics soooooo glad no frosted canopy Quote
eggy99 Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 @treatment said Ami isn't going to be processing any shipping or payment requests until Jan 3, when they return from break. Kind of good news for me. Gives more time for the AUD to climb against the JPY. It's slowly jumping climbing back. Quote
derex3592 Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 This thing is such a slap in the face to Arcadia ridiculously overpriced "Premium Finish" stuff..Can't wait to get mine in the new year! Quote

eggy99 Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 I was also thinking, which MWF member will be supplying everyone with cockpit decals? Quote

I still think we may get a payment request between today and tomorrow from AmiAmi, even I think we could have a shipping notice between these days as well if you choose DHL of course, cause most of the time DHL ships from Japan in fridays or the beginning of the week, let's see what happens Update: The stock Item status just changed just now!

Obviously, we’re all looking forward to having this new one in hand though. There is something funny about the white one bent over with the black one behind it in that pic.

tjdetweiler Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Go go go 18k yen https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/m/10551440 Quote
rsvictor1976 Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Can't wait to get mine from NY. Unfortunately, 2019 already looks like an expensive year with Metal Build stuff and now this. No doubt more Tamashii exclusives will come out for the VF-1J. I can see Super Parts by Spring and Armor by Summer. Quote
Mac Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 I've never PO from HLJ but was able to snag one this time. I see that some of you are getting emails from HLJ to pay. Do I just wait for them to send me an email or am I supposed to request for payment from them? Quote

Maybe some enterprising individual out there wants to give it a try anyway and prove me wrong. Quote

spanner Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 I just ordered a second one with HLJ just in case CDJ stuff me around.. Quote
The Smirker Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Hey, if anyone is willing to back out of any preorder, let me know. Just as long as it's below $200 lol. Quote

Nice, now you just need to wait for the Fast Packs to eventually come out. Quote
canklebreaker Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 So I got my confirmation email from HLJ saying they’re processing the order and that I chose “private warehouse” as shipping (stormed thru the check out process). Is there a way for me to change that status to have it shipped immediately? Also, do I need to wait for a payment request? I didn’t see my PayPal payment process yet. Quote

You can go into your account and add/update your PayPal info and agree to their billing agreement. Then Hlj will be able to charge the order quicker . Once it’s paid , you will see it in your private warehouse , which you can then choose what shipping service you want and then request to have it shipped out. There’s no immediately processing and shipping new orders anyways . It’s all the same wait since your order is new . Quote
F360 Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Cdjapan status now shows “in shipping process” Quote
