I am surprised too still seeing it available on Amiami. Didn't join the preorder party last night and wasn't planning to get this originally. But having it still available at this time kind of makes me want to pull the trigger. Have to think about this...

Does Nin Nin have bad reputation when it comes to pre orders? I paid ¥64,616 upfront in total shipped to AUS via EMS which I think is cheaper that Amazon.jp. |

5 PM Sydney Time. Sweet. Fire up those browsers and online retailer pages! I was able to order 4, for some mates who never heard of SOC but they are filipinos! LOL... Very easy to order but that Roy F DX-VF-1s was just a different beast! Managed to get one but it was very tough as websites were crashing! |

Very easy to order but that Roy F DX-VF-1s was just a different beast! Managed to get one but it was very tough as websites were crashing! A lot of Macross/robotech people popped out of nowhere for Roy's 1S. Just look at Macross World Forum. And it's the price. This Voltes is premium price. That's $600 for one and with the current economy, not everyone will be able to justify the purchase. |

You can still get a DX Combattler V from BBTS today without much markup, so it is understandable Voltes is not completely sold out yet. But can't say the initial batch of PO will last a lot longer. Most of the major shops are indeed sold out.

I’m going to wait for USA sellers to have them as well and get second one possibly. I still have my GX-31V that I don’t plan on selling.
I’d say if you’re not interested don’t buy this. That’s lot of money for buying something that some collectors have no affinity towards.
I often see buyers remorse from collectors impulse buying then trying to unload huge DX item or just other items in general. I had one collector sell me DX Great Mazinger for ridiculous price because he really didn’t want it and it was taking too much room.
Price wise it’s DX and expected this is nothing if you’re vintage jumbo machinder collector. 😛

Amiami can cancel order? I never experience that As i know the shipping cost will be huge , prepare for add another $100 to US shipping if these pandemic still worse till 2021 I said the worst thing can happen.....Its an assumption of what can happen due to massive orders in their system.....I did NOT said AmiAmi cancel orders..... Yeah, I don't think they have ever been known to cancel preorders...they are pretty reputable/reliable. |

I did NOT say they are NOT reputable and reliable but dont you think its kind of odd AmiAmi is still accepting pre O for DX Voltes V until now? |

Pre-sales are still open for places like Amazon.co.jp, BandaiOnline...? So, I mean...I would not read too much into this. If the market for a $600USD figure is that high, well, cool. |

I may want to get this guy someday but Voltes V is not that high next to others. So it is a huge maybe.
But Bandai really pulled all the stops for this release.
It has a basic layout of the base that all the Voltes Machines launch out of and that giant V effect part as well

It has a basic layout of the base that all the Voltes Machines launch out of and that giant V effect part as well I honestly just got this V hoping one day soon we get the grendizer and I like others can finally have the trio from Go nagai. That is the honest truth ... I will get this and barter down the road for grendizer ( if that happens) if not I will just sell it down the road these one has a bigger fan base than combattler I believe as all the SOC form voltes sell like hot cakes ... |
