jenius Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Oof, I'm going to have to go with a WWM release on this one... I'm sure the Japanese sites will sell out instantly and I'm on the east coast and those hours don't work for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought all of the Hi-Metals available at Mandarake for nearly a month. Finally got around to opening them a couple months later, transformed two of them, and promptly noped out and sold the lot. Just not my thing, unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though I'm not planning on getting one. Wait. I forgot. I don't have any Nekki Valks. Edit: My bad. I just realized VF-19P is indeed a Nekki Valk. Have to find an extra pilot figure to replace that guy. Hahaha! Edited April 3 by no3Ljm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They and the HMRs scratch an itch at a lower price point, but I have a poison ivy-level Macross rash. DX is my Benadryl now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jvmacross Posted April 3 Author Share Posted April 3 Based on recent WWM....pretty confident about this release eventually going for less than the prices at Japanese retailers on Japanese PO day...and that includes adding domestic shipping.... My Collector Beast within will remain fully contained tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to stay awake to pre-order from Japan when I can just pre-order from Amazon US. (I love my sleep) P.S. It is a lot easier for me to justify buying Macross toys again, ever since my husband discovered a hobby where he spends way more than me.... luxury watch collecting. *sigh* (I am sorry Valkyria that you have 2 parents who are so irresponsible with money) LOL! My husband just said that his watches are investments! I felt that way about the Yamato Elintseeker until the Arcadia Premium edition was released.... *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronocidal Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 In theory (minus AmiAmi who seems to want to push them to 5:30pm), though I seem to recall there being some oddballs that didn't adjust to daylight savings in the past? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronocidal Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 (edited) And of course the hampsters powering HLJ's servers all just had strokes. Phew.. think it actually got through.

Sanity is Optional Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 That was an easy one. Maybe the scalpers are leaving HMRs alone now that there are WWM releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froy Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 (edited) Got my confirmation from HLJ And 5+ minutes and still available. Seems WWM is doing its thing. Edited April 5 by Froy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 (edited) Could be there just isn't that much interest in this one as well, which is kind of a nice change. Got a pair from HLJ and AE without much hassle, so I'll just pray that any further releases of this mold are just as easy.

MKT Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Got one at Nin-nin due to best price & flexible payment + shipping. Site was laggy as heck though, had to keep adding & re-adding to cart, but finally got through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh9000 Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 (edited) 2 HMR VF-19 Fire Valkyries and 1 Tiny Session YF-19 ordered at Nin-Nin-Game with cheapest price, combined shipping, pay later, and private warehouse option work best for me.
