In all seriousness, if June 3rd is the pre-order date what time will orders be open? Hasn't it always been typically 4pm Tokyo time?

This will be my swan song to collecting. Prices of collectables and shipping have gone far beyond what I'm willing and can afford to pay. After 30 years of collecting I will get the GX-88 if I can and then exit the hobby. It's gone far beyond what I'm willing to invest. I prefer to hunt local toy stores. However, after TRU closed my local comic shop saw fit to raise prices to stupid level. So I have lost the excitement in collecting. USPS have also announced they will be raising shipping prices to stupid levels in June. So I say good by. Need SoC Daimos, GoLion and Metal Build Evangelion and should be DX Voltes V is released it will be probably be quits for me. EDIT: Forgot Metal Build Grendizer

we did both agree they did use the same color hue.. so the intent is there. I'm sorry this just makes no sense, just because they are the same color. lol Everything about them is completely different. earlier i just thought it looked its similar..its just my opinion. if u think otherwise.. its fine. well im sorry too..dont make it hard on u lol

VF-1S Up For Pre-Order NOW. kitzconcept.hk/index.php/all/1-72-scale-vf-1-fighters-220.htmlThat's a 1/72 scale item there. Hello all...we have a Macross forum section, AND a thread for the DX 1/48 Valk here! : robotjapan.proboards.com/thread/25042/dx-chogokin-1-48-vf1?page=16Please yappitty yap about Macross there, LOL. Back to DairuggerXV! I like how the early proto pics showed likely optional big,blocky hands, so the modern toy can almost exactly replicate the old classic artwork, as earlier posts noted!

dluna - try HLJ, amiami, or nippon-yasan. Sometimes amazon Japan works too. I am loving this Dairugger! Glad I sold my Miracle one few months ago after the SOC announcement! This one is SO MUCH Better! The Miracle one did its job during the void, but at the end of the day it is a much inferior product compared to any SOC in the material, mold sharpness, paint, fitment, and QC departments. The best thing about the Miracle VV is that it drove Bandai to produce an even more superior product since it sets a benchmark, particularly in the articulation department. Thank you much locidm! I found the sites but can you confirm if I need to set up a new account for the Amazon Japan site? It looks like my regular American Amazon account information won’t work with it.

Since most SOCs come with too many extras, LOL, likely it comes with 2 sizes of helicopter rotors, the big ones in the proto pic, and smaller ones for proper combined mode.

Ahhhh...yes I remember I forgot he uses its rotors to form the sword..I was like I think they took it off because they will get in the way of the shoulder when you pose him like that..makes sense..thanks for reminding me. It looks awesome, it looks like still gorilla arms but I'm not complaining..happy that we got something to pair up with Golion With the PO date near..official pics are coming soon
