Guess this is the one time being a Brit helps, with currency conversion its only works out about 2/3rds what the US pay for them.

If you have a middleman here's the whole set AND rainbow ressha for $70:

Shipping might be the killer though

So I have some thoughts. So you guys know about the Kyoryuger Ressha, so what if they made Ressha of all the other arm Zyudenryu. So if they made Ressha of Stegochi & Dricera, you could replace the front parts of Yellow & Pink Ressha, add the other Kyoryuger Ressha & make To-Oh Kyoryuzin Samba. Get the others and make Western, Macho, & Kung-Fu! And hopefully, they'll have the same gimmicks as their Zyudenryu counterparts.

And another thing, for the next Taisen movie, I hope it will have an involvement of Metal Heroes. I'm hoping for a B-Fighter, Space Sheriff, Gaim, & (insert next Rider after Gaim) Ressha. In my mind, B-Fighter & Space Sheriff would each be divided into 3 parts to represent each individual Metal Hero & the Kamen Rider ones in 2 parts. The B-Fighter & Gaim Ressha would combine with Toq-Oh to make Toq-Oh B-Fighter Feat. Gaim. Reddle & G-Stag's Ressha become the feet, Gaim, the ARMS, & Blue Beet the chest and head. With the Space Sheriffs, Sharivan & Shaider become the arms, new rider, the feet, & Gavan, the head, & call it Toq-Oh Space Sheriff Feat. (New Rider)!

Sorry for talking for so long, but that's the purpose of Tokunation, to share your thoughts, opinions, & discoveries. So, what are your thoughts?

To any of my UK brethren, im selling off my Toqger trains, was a hard decision.

Im selling them on ebay here if anybody wants them ebay

sorry, UK only

You have my interest though I will have to wait until tomorrow

Was gonna buy your Diesel-oh, Alpha, but I was waiting for a confirmation email from Mandarake (since friday, not known them to actually take 3 days before) But it had gone this morning when I looked =(

Fortunately, and to my surprise, my order came through, so I have a Diesel-Oh enroute =D

I got my Diesel-oh in the mail today from HLJ and surprisingly it came with the rainbow ressha and I didn't even preorder.

Dang, now I kind of wish I had ordered a Diesel-oh from HLJ.

Cheers guys, appreciate the support, i sold most of it fairly quick, just the Go-Buster and Kyoryuger resshas left.

Den-O Ressha! Den-O Ressha!
Kyoryuger Ressha! Kyoryuger Ressha!

Ressha Gattai! Toq-Oh Kyoryuzin Feat. Den-Liner!

Has anyone who was forced to go with HLJ gotten a payment request for the Den-O Ressha yet?

I did and it shipped yesterday

Son of a... I ordered that thing the day they went up. I'm starting to think they draw names out of a hat.

haha, enter a REALLY long name. Chances are they'll pick the biggest pieces of paper first :p

That is complete bullshit. I had them ordered within in mintues of the order going live and mine went to "order stop".

I will continue to shout it from the rooftops. HLJ is complete and utter joke of an online retailer.

I won't disagree with you, but a status of "order stop" when you're viewing your orders just indicates the current status of the item on the site. I found that out when I was trying to figure out the release date of something. It's a stupid thing IMO.

It's still ridiculous that they oversell pre-orders. And wouldn't you know it, I just took at look at my acount again to double check their status. For the 2nd time this month HLJ just outright removed an order from my account. They aren't even there anymore :mad:

My order was a backup between me and Sentai Tamashii just in case one of couldn't us get them or vice versa. I don't know if his came in or not , mine clearly didn't though.

Until this year I had never had a problem with HLJ. I had no idea how lucky I was. ENot one Ressha I have ordered with them has been fulfilled, I've had Lock Seeds cancelled without explanation and their backorder system is a slap in the face since every one of those I had was changed to discontinued. Funny enough, CSToys got restocks in after HLJ said they weren't in production anymore. It boggles the imagination (no pun intended) that they can run a business like this.

Do we know the release date of Buildai-oh yet?

Den Liner is back in stock at Amiami. Grab it while you can!

Thank you!
Figuarts Mario and Lucario, the Mario Accessory Sets and MonsterArts Big Chap plus Den-Liner now. Not looking forward to that shipping bill!

There is a Rainbow Ressha on Mandarake right now for ¥2,000! Go! Go! Go!

Edit: Also, I just got this email when I asked HLJ about the Den-O Ressha. They're passing the blame, it seems.

That's the excuse they give EVERY time.

Yeah, but this is the first time I've actually gotten a response from them about it. Most of the time that info seems to circulate second-hand. It's not any less true because of it, but this time they're officially telling me to go somewhere else because they overbooked.

I'm not even sure if it is true. It happens to them so often and only them you have to wonder who's really at fault.

I'm assuming you had to email them first because that's how their crappy customer service is.

Oh yeah. It took close to three days to get a response, too. Once or twice and I could believe that they were shorted on an item. But this seems to be the case with nearly everything they take pre-orders for these days. They should CSToys it and wait until they have the stock to sell it.

Clearly they're full of it. At this point that's literally the only explanation. HLJ purposefully oversells pre-orders so that they guarantee they sell out of product. But they don't care if they can't fill all of them. They're selling out. When it happens EVERY SINGLE TIME it isn't a case of them getting less than they were offered. It's a case of them continuing to be one of the worst online retailers in existence.

They can't pass the blame along every time someones order isn't fulfilled because of their crappy business practices. Or at least they shouldn't. But it's clearly what they are doing.

Meanwhile Sentai Tamashii and I got Den-Liners at Amiami. So I'm good now.

I wonder if they order from a reseller themselves (like maybe they're not big enough to order direct like most do). That could explain the issue.

It's annoying because they DO have a great ordering system and they have the cheapest shipping methods I've seen (barring waiting 2 months for it to come by sea). Just sucks the fulfillment side can't keep up with the rest.

Ayup. It would be one thing, too, if they fulfilled orders based on the date it was purchased. Sadly, it seems they just throw darts at a board and ship it to whoever they land on. Lame. I'm working a small convention in Central Florida this weekend, so I'm hoping I might get lucky and see a Den-Liner Ressha there. If not, then it's going to be Mandarake, where I had to get the previous two Legend Ressha since HLJ shafted me on those, too.

I think the worst parts is that the jerk-asses don't even bother you to email you they're not fulfilling their order. You have to contact them for them to give some bad excuse for the umpteenth time.

Well I think ST and I lucked out. It would appear we scored literally the last 2 Den-Liners that Amiami had in stock. Sorry about that guys.

I have figured out a way of combining Cho Tokyyu-oh with the Go-buster and Kyoryuger ressha.

Of course it doesn''t look nice and is horribly unbalanced, but at least I can combine them all.

Alert!

I have 2 extra sets of Police & Fire Resshas! I had them on backup at HLJ in case Sentai Tamashii's order with me fell though. But instead both orders were filled and I have extras. At what HLJ is charging me they come to right at $35 with EMS shipping to me included for a pair. Anyone with interested PM me. I only have 2 sets, first come first serve.

Well, holy crap. HLJ actually came through on my Police and Fire Ressha. Color me shocked.

Den-O, I hate you for saying you've got Dupes.

PMed you.

Thanks for the pics! I just noticed Build Dai Oh's head is a crane!

Question is, does BuildDaiOh support the ability to swap arms and become say, BuildDaiOh Police? BuildDaiOh Fire is possible since we know the front cab detaches.
