QUOTE(TheEvilMan @ Apr 8 2016, 11:27 AM) i also notice that the MG release is moving slower and slower, browing thru the release history it use to be every month or two, not it's like 6-7 units a year They might be preparing for xmas.Last quarter of 2016 there might be the height of some shows. Also they are putting more effort in Macross delta. I already POed a VF 31 J a few days ago. |

QUOTE(D-y @ Apr 8 2016, 12:49 PM) bandai got plenty of series with model kit lately, no surprise there will be reduction in certain release The anime will be out in july. The model will be out in june. Don't want to suffer from limited stock like previously. Now hobby search had a lot of Macross frontier restocked.or in worst case scenario, the benchmark is too high for this year release, freedom 2.0 looks really good didn't know they're releasing a new macross plamo, now I kinda want it |

I use both HLJ and hobby search.
They have their pro and cons. The reason i bought more from hobby search is because they have a more friendly user interface than HLJ. But if i am trying to combine things that are about 1 to 2 months apart, i'll definitely use HLJ because of their private warehouse. Price wise, both are about the same. |

QUOTE(TheEvilMan @ Apr 8 2016, 06:14 PM) Is ordering a single unit worth it? If you use other than ems it may be higher.I remember ordering a unicorn MG from hobbysearch and it cost me 17x while it sell at 16x here And 105 for RG astray while the price here is 90 MG rx-78 origin cost me 18x and it's only 16x here AM using ems shipment maybe that's the issue |

QUOTE(TheEvilMan @ Apr 8 2016, 06:25 PM) SAL is cheaper if you buy small.For example an MG V2 gundam from HLJ; 1 unit shipping SAL is cheaper by 400 yen 2 unit shipping SAL is cheaper by 100 yen 3 unit shipping EMS is cheaper by 200 yen Really depends on the size and weight. SAL is not only slow but also not trackable. Your package may be sent somewhere else and you'll never know about it. EMS not only fast but also trackable. My item once got stuck in kuantan for several days until i called the poslaju kuantan to check. |

QUOTE(TheEvilMan @ Apr 9 2016, 10:08 AM) I try calculating base on my previous purchase of rx-78 origin + 2 action base which cost 2500yen i notice efreet is selling at 2975 yen (retail price 3500 yen) cheaper 525 yen assuming shipping stand around 2300-2500 yen it will be 5275 yen which is around 19x myr, should that been much more exp than local price standing around 13x myr? QUOTE(onnylam @ Apr 9 2016, 10:17 AM) In my opinion, if item(s) can be found locally, get them locally. Everything depends whether you want cheaper or getting the item fast or a guarantee that you get the item.Shipment + tax will make them more expensive, unless they're having massive discount or the item(s) you can't find locally. Eg: I recently purchased an Arcadia VF-0A from HLJ during their promotion. Everything added up to ard RM1060, which includes shipment (I chose FedEX) + kastam tax, which is cheaper than locally sold. Like onnylam wrote, i usually buy from japan if local have no stock and i really hate travelling over 100 km one way just to return emptyhanded. And KL is 250km from here. The one thing i dislike of our online local sellers are they do not update their stock availability online. There were also the cases where their suppliers couldn't get the stock and got pushed back the order till next batch which add a few months of waiting. Another case was my item got holdup at Segamat due to the courier chosen by the seller did not service to my area. Had to travel 140km round trip. The courier already tag my item for return to sender when i got there. The worst case is when i ordered paint. Not only that it was very late, one item is out of stock and they did not contact me. At that time i used paypal and cancelled it. Only then they sent the incomplete package with some money in it. I returned it back. The only local store i go to is Detoyz and the only reason for that is it is on the way back to my work place from my hometown. Just a stop everytime, mostly for getting paint. Not cheap but at least i did not have to travel far. |

Yeah, the macross frontier re-release must be because of macross delta. We can hope to see other company re-release as well.
