The price is a bit steep but worth it. What I noticed was the facebook post said "small to medium retail chains" will carry this. TRU maybe?

More than likely local comic shops like the one I work at. Comic stores all use the same distributor (Diamond) and they get imports like this through Bluefin. If they can get it to TRU that will be awesome but as is I can safely say Ill snag one at work

This thing truly is beautiful. I'm so glad I was able to snag a pre-order for one. I mean, I don't like these figures so much so some reason, but this one I just couldn't say no to.
What's surprising though is that Saban allowed a distributor to bring it over. It's one thing that they're bringing over Red Hawk because Jetman's rights aren't with Saban, but this is smack dab in the middle of what Saban has the rights to. I heard someone somewhere saying the Shinken Red and Gold Figuarts didn't do well here (I'm sure being TRU exclusive didn't help much) so maybe Saban has a deal going here knowing that people want it, but this makes for less of an investment for its release.

Well they did mention comic shops separately. That's probably how I'll get mine unless it goes up on Amazon or comes out in time to buy it directly at Bluefin's booth at NYCC.

In my area the Figuarts sold well initially, there aren't many left if any at all, but they did seem to replenish often during the holidays. YES!!!
