rematron Posted February 1, 2022 Posted February 1, 2022 Totally missed the PO on this awesome looking anniversary VF-25 but will try to get one on eBay or something if: Sorry if this is a repeat question but anybody know if this release will have a matte finish? Not really interested if it’s glossy like the older renewal 25’s. Quote

rematron Posted February 1, 2022 Posted February 1, 2022 Sweet! Thanks Sanity. Well it certainly ‘looks’ like matte finish in the photos…. Wish I knew for sure. Quote

NeoVanguard Posted February 7, 2022 Posted February 7, 2022 Amazon still has the Anniversary VF-25 as well. https://www.amazon.com/Tamashi-Nations-Frontier-Worldwide-Anniversary/dp/B09M6R8RH8/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=vf-25+worldwide&qid=1644214112&sprefix=vf-25+%2Caps%2C127&sr=8-1 Quote
twich Posted February 21, 2022 Posted February 21, 2022 So I’m guessing this will not be open up to the world, being a Tamashi Web Exclusive? Twich Quote

68whiskey Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 43 minutes ago, nightmareB4macross said: How so? Easy. They take pictures and throw up a listing on their website, even before we have release dates or confirmed pricing. they are hustling a Metal Structure Sazabi and we don’t have a release date or price on that thing yet Quote
Rein+ Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 Luna take premium charge up front maybe because they also source it from another store?. Quote

I have bought a few POs from them and they always pull thru. Quote

Special Sauce Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 Considering space and cost I'm passing on this one. In fact, the only one of the these new VF-31ax's I like is the Mirage model. I planned on only getting designs I truly love after my initial binge getting back into collecting these. Quote

Some members got their packages in Amazon boxes with invoices still inside. Only the shipping label outside was changed. Quote
Scyla Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 (edited) Just a heads up if you planning preordering from HLJ this Friday. I tried to add an item to my cart and it wouldn’t let me until I deleted my cookies. I think they also had server maintenance this morning. So you might want to test if you can still put items in your cart. Edited February 23, 2022 by Scyla Quote
jenius Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 Is it TWE? If so, HLJ won't be an option. Quote

jvmacross Posted February 24, 2022 Author Posted February 24, 2022 https://anime-export.com/index.php?product=56132 27,800 JPY Done! Quote
jenius Posted February 24, 2022 Posted February 24, 2022 I used anime-export also. Luna Park has been giving me really bad vibes on the last few preorders. BiginJap.com has it also but their mark-up is pretty extreme... especially with their tendency to upcharge shipping. Quote
lykiat Posted February 24, 2022 Posted February 24, 2022 I'm surprised that we can already PO this item. Made my first purchase with anime export, hopefully no issues. I have been buying some of the recent ones with Luna park but shipping is getting out of hand there Quote

I have been buying some of the recent ones with Luna park but shipping is getting out of hand there TWE items are like that from the regular Japanese online stores. They will put the PO as early as they can, get the numbers of order prior of the actual P-Bandai PO date, and making sure that they will be able to 'order' that said number of orders from P-Bandai acting like a proxy. Hence, the marked up price and pay upfront. It's the reason why there's a few regular Japanese online stores that does this. Probably due to the hassle of getting it directly from P-Bandai. Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted February 24, 2022 Posted February 24, 2022 Anyone know what the actual bandai price is for the Bogue 31AX? Quote
