Guyffon Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 (edited) I guess they are just slow then, I guess I can wait a bit for it Edited August 20, 2023 by Guyffon Quote
sh9000 Posted August 21, 2023 Posted August 21, 2023 I didn't receive an email from AE yet but I just logged into their site and mine is ready to ship. Quote
derex3592 Posted August 21, 2023 Posted August 21, 2023 Got my in stock email from them as well today! Quote
sh9000 Posted August 21, 2023 Posted August 21, 2023 Shipping paid for the HMR VF-0D with some other Macross toys at AE. It's going to be a nice Macross package coming in. My other 2 should be coming on Friday. Quote

derex3592 Posted August 23, 2023 Posted August 23, 2023 Probably just depends on where you live, my ONLY option was DHL for like $28 to TX. Quote
Corrinald Posted August 23, 2023 Posted August 23, 2023 Same here. I am in Ohio and my only option was for DHL Quote
sh9000 Posted August 23, 2023 Posted August 23, 2023 No shipping option for me at AE. They just chose DHL when I clicked on ship my items. It ended up cheap though. Quote

Raikkonen Posted August 23, 2023 Posted August 23, 2023 For me, it wasn't about patience, it just came down to being way cheaper than the domestic pre-order price. Quote
Phangry Posted August 23, 2023 Posted August 23, 2023 Honestly, getting it in hand, the VF-0D is gorgeous. That said, it is also one of the most frustrating Macross toys I've owned in terms of trying to get everything to tab in/not fall off in fighter mode. Makes me want to seek out the Arcadia release, if only it wasn't so expensive. 😬 Quote

vladykins Posted August 23, 2023 Posted August 23, 2023 AE was DHL only for me, but $28 is cheap compared to what it has been. Quote
sh9000 Posted August 23, 2023 Posted August 23, 2023 All 3 of mine have arrived so I'll be checking them out after work. Quote
