Looks like this has already been released in Japan. I've already received emails from NY about it being available again but the mark up is really high. Cancelled with BBTS (289 plus shipping!) Went the GG infinite route with %15 discount coupon and free shipping, it came out to $214 US. Those of you out of California may even get it for $199. I personally feel this is too much for add on parts but I know my GGG won't be complete without it. Screw you Bandai! GGG with Goldion Hammer is all I need. f**k web exclusives and f**k that overpriced garbage add-on set.

If you guys can get this close to retail, you should do so now. The price of this is sure to go up since TWE "add on" parts do not get reissued. Look at the Big O parts and all of the Super/Armor/Tornado parts for those that collect Macross DX Valkyries. All of which have ridiculous prices now.

Same here... Didn't have the funds back then to pay for it and still don't have the funds now... Really want to pick up this set up, but like many of you guys, I can't fathom why this set needs to cost as much as GGG himself... (>.<)

I still don't know why I preorder this set. Something hacked my brain probably. NY send me an add-on shipping cost. Package is bigger than expected. When companies will learn that packagings must be compact, for the cost, the shipping cost, the storage and ecology...

Opened up the second link and had some friends who happen to be standing next to me. First thing that pops up on that page is what appears to be cartoon porn. Great.

Which shipping method did you guys use? I've heard people have been having issues with NY on getting dinged for extra shipping on the Macross HMR Roy. My Star Parts still haven't shipped and I haven't gotten any emails or PP invoices. With it being Golden Week in JP right now, I'm getting a little nervous.

I used EMS. fyi - I just got a "shipped" notice from them a few hours ago.

Put in a ticket, got dinged Y700 in extra shipping, which isn't too bad. Looking pretty bad for N-Y having this happen on my first order and in light of recent events.

They replied to my email just a few hours after I sent it so it seems they have stepped up their game when it comes to the customer service department.

Picked up my Star parts from NY at the post office today. It is a very large box for what it is. I guess I should crack open my GGG and stand him up next to my CMs.

Pardon the crappy photos, my lighting is no good so they came out pretty terribad. Leh Boxes. Man, it sure does make the CM's look like a cheap toy. Its like comparing a G2 TF to a MP. Its been several years since I took my CM's (when I packed it up to move after college) and boy is it simpler than I remember. And the SOC Star can stand while the CM's needs a stand. Meanwhile, the SOC just has presence. Those big yaoi hands are kinda hilarious, though.
