Album JKT48's Debut Album [Heavy Rotation] '13/02/16

why they take out the photo pack? I think it should be there, I understand if the hand shake event not include. 2 million only for dvd it's expensive (i understand if in that price you got members authograph on dvd package, but it's only regular dvd)

 

a seller on ebay was auctioning the album off too, i didn't say anything till now because i wanted to win a copy and i did I got type B without the extras for $12. i don't know the original indonesian price and to be honest the currency exchange with rupiahs to dollars is confusing to me. I just wanted to know if i got a good price or was that to high for the album?

 

the easiest way to compare IMO is this :
1 USD = 100 JPY ; 1 JPY = 100 IDR
as for today 1 USD = 9733 IDR and 1 JPY = 102 IDR

the real price is 99 000 IDR for type A and 50 000 IDR for type B,
so it's about 10 USD and 5 USD respectively

IMO, 12 USD is still worth it for type B

 

so the exchange rate is similar to the JPY , thats is helpful thank you nice to know that I did get a decent price on the album

 

What the. . . Among my group, the photo is what determines the value of the DVD.
Selling the DVD without the photo, and 22000 yen for the price, that's totally expensive.

Spoiler

The photo of Nabilah or Melody is even worth at least IDR 100K among fans.

 

Nabilah is going traveling everywhere..

 

It's Nabilah & friends tour anyway

 

hahaha you're right

So This is how it's goes so far

Padang -Medan : Nabilah-Sonya-Noella (trainee)
Banjarmasin-Balikpapan : Nabilan-Cindy-Vieny (Trainee)
Ujung Pandang-Malang :Nabilah-??-?? (Trainee)

Can You guess who's next, hehehe

 

Yeshhhhh!!!!!

Finally, at April 5, Nabilah, Ghaida, and Ayen (Trainee) comes to Makassar!!!

That is one hell of an event, and outside the radio station where fans line up for the album-selling-directly-by-member is hot as hell.

So they kinda like fill form, Q, trade form with coupon, wait for turn, enter the room (3 or 4 persons in a wave) with the members and receive your album. Also you're given a dose of happiness.
Purchase of 250k and up automatically entered into a lottery. Winner gets to take a photo with the members.

What I know
-There was around 200 people coming for the event.
- Nabilah told me to DRINK the type A two times a day and EAT type B 2 times a day also. (Note that i bought 2 of each type)
- Makassar Tokusatsu comes with Kamen Rider Dikeido (Decade) cosplay to buy albums. Ghaida obviously like Kamen Rider. So I can only imagine. Rumors that spread around local 4 fanbase, is that Ghaida HUGGED the two cosplayers. WHAT DE.... Also SHE WIPED THEIR SWEAT AFTER OPENING THE KAMEN RIDER HELMETS...
- Two of my schoolfriends (one man one woman), while getting their albums together, were accused of DATING, source of rumor : THE MEMBERS. They stay at the room for a long time... Dang me want like that.
- During my 2nd trip up (Bought two times), Nabilah TAPPED MY SHOULDER.

That, is awesome as hell.

Too bad the Makassar trip is the shortest of all the JKT48 KELILING-KELILING event. The next spot after Makassar is at Malang. They need to take a plane to Surabaya first, then go to Malang by car. They arrived at Malang around 22:00 WIB.

 

WOW!
I'm so jealous of those cosplayers! I'm willing to dress up for a hug!

Thanks for writing up your experience and the other stuff that happened or speculated to have happen, glad you had a great time, sounds like a fantastic atmosphere.

 

Well, thank you!

I wrote a full-fledged Field Report, but still in Indonesian x_x

Yes the atmosphere is awesome, but it is HOT... VERY VERY HOT! (Some said it's like 38 degree Celcius.. Hot, man. When interviewed at the radio.. The first thing they said about Makassar that it's hot.


Sadly they're in Makassar for like 7 hours, then they depart to Malang. But we understand, because it's like 2 hours from Makassar to Surabaya, then they go by car, and you know lah, macet!

 

one question, if i buy the album this thursday at theater,
can i still can join the handshake event?

 

^
That depends whether they still sell the CD's with the handshake form. If they did, then you can participate on the HS event.

 

If I'm not mistaken, they're still selling the cd and even on the HS day (or maybe just the handshake ticket).
Hopefully I got the right info [think]

 

ya i read the info on official.
seems like even on hs event day still got HR Type-B selling

Spoiler

lol, got last empty spot, just put dhike or ayen there!~!!!!!

 

I think I'll buy some more on the day [think]
for the other members who are still my oshi / fav members

 

I definately want to buy for Ayana, i need to apologize to her ..... i know it's a missunderstanding, but i feel bad for her and i need to apologize ...

 

Buy more for Vienny !! [rock]

 

For those asking about the CD selling on the HS event, here's some info.

Spoiler

●　Mengenai penjualan CD pada hari event
Pada hari event handshake, akan dijual CD dengan tiket event handshake individual. Bila belum membeli atau masih ingin menambah tiket, kami tunggu di booth merchandise pada hari event. Tetapi, pembelian CD hanya dapat dilakukan sampai 20 menit sebelum waktu penukaran tiket TIAP SESI selesai. Setelah waktu di tiap sesi tersebut selesai, hanya akan dijual CD tanpa tiket handshake.

For example :
Look at Session 4. The time to claim the ticket is 12:50~13:50
so the CD sold
BEFORE 13:30 will have HS ticket.
AFTER 13:30 will have no HS ticket.

I guess they'll start selling again at the next ticket redeem time, which is at 14:20~15:20. So buy one HS ticket until 15:00.

I'm going! Lucky SMA's UN is 15 to 18 April, so finally i can go there!!! ^_^

 

I don't think she heard you that day at least she didn't aware

woohoo [rock]

maybe I'll buy some more for other members and/or go back and forth
