Preorder payment limit was on 21st of december.
according to NY, the product will be available from 2013-12-23.
Then armor parts will probably surface in february...
The missile rack are different on this YF,
a new armor parts set design could be welcome.

Indeed.. I can't get everything though.. limited funds. That Super Alto in the back left corner, is it a v1 or a renewal?
Has anyone had problems with floppy hips on a renewal? My Alto Durandal can't stand up without external assistance. I've been thinking about pulling the hips apart to see if anything can be done about them.

Btw, you can try anubis20's fix for the joints. Here's a link for the video. |

I used a piece of eraser for a TFC toy : It wirks well but this rubber part will be more efficient for sure. I received the last YF-29 : new gem in DX Macross collection. I really digg these colors. Black parts came perfect on it. Need to pick up the regular VF with same colors. (and get new freelance missions to get the $$) |

I order my DX VFs at nippon-Yasan and I received a printed note with my last purchase (YF-29) about TRANSI-LOGISTIC www.nippon-yasan.com/content/34-Transi-logistic-> looks good. Hope this site will continuying selling that way (collectors happy). My last talks with Cosmic group (Bandai European distributor) made me understand they are not happy about NY -> killing European market. |

The problem with the local distributors (Bluefin in the USA) is that they take so long to receive the items that many people go with the Japanese stores. I really wanted to support the USA distributor but sometimes im waiting up to 2 months after the release in Japan, I didnt get my DX Mazinger until February of 2013 and it had been released on December of 2012. I think Bandai Japan needs to set release dates to coincide with the release of foreign markets that way they are not killing their international distributors. I know lately with the drop of the yen i have gone back to HLJ so i can get my products in a timely fashion (im still waiting on Figuarts Blue Rose and that came out Nov 2013 in Japan -_-)

Just received mine from Nippon Yasan today. This is one pretty bird. Took it out and was pleased that it had no significant flaws in the paint or build. So far this is the best colour yet for the YF 29 IMHO. It really looks great. Now to order those super parts. |

Just got mine a couple of days ago. Looks like NY changed my address as I requested them to but didn't change the zip code which added an extra 2 days to its time in transit. Noticed that the joints are extra tight on mine but I had a helluva time opening up the gunpod.
