Yup. We had orders for them at both places as back ups and neither of them came through at all.

If the other 4 are going for $50-100$ on the aftermarket i can't imagine how much this is going to end up going for.

Which is why I plan to go ahead and pay the inflated prices now so I don't pay more later.

I am really glad Ive decided to give up on ACs and just get the SH Figuarts as they come out. I have no intrest in payin this much for these things.

Yup.

I haven't given up quite yet but then again I'm looking at it in a more realistic sense. The show is still fairly early on and the manufacturers behind the toys more than likely didn't foresee the demand for them. Give it time and they'll be back in stock around mid-year I'd guess if my experiences in other toy lines like this is anything to go on.

Though I will be watching for upcoming AC figures when the pre-orders go up :P

I'd be happy getting the HK or Korean versions of the AC figs in a year or two at cost or even lower.

Was it an order at AmiAmi or a back-order? They do say that they possibly can't fulfill those sometimes. Unlike HLJ which just cancels your order randomly / doesn't fulfill it at their whim.

I am honestly not surprised they couldn't, I tried to order an AC Baron the last time it was Back-ordered and the same thing happened. And then ACs became the new hotness. Baron flip flopped a few times before that, between back-order and in stock, and I hesitated. But, Figuarts so.

And jeez there's a ton of Rider Lockseeds already, and this show is only a third of the way into it.

I went ahead and bought one off eBay. I just wanna see how much they shoot up in price in the next few weeks.

Shin Zangetsu hasnt even been releasedyet (as far as I can tell) and its already shot up to 6500yen on amazon. Wow.
