The blue and green two pack. I'm a little worried since Yokatta just says 'while stock last' for the end time which I think means they've already closed.

Nippon Yasan has them, and you dont have to pay until two weeks before release I beleive. http://www.nippon-yasan.com/lang-en/...d-edition.html

I got my first figuarts today =) Of Kuuga and Agito from eBay. So happy.

Be careful, they are addictive. The only known cure is being broke. :lol

Congrats on your first SHFs :D

I can personally say being broke is NOT a cure! :lol The only cure is... well to quit collecting them... Once you start, there is NO alternative :p

actually I just preordered Alternative...


*runs*

:lol Nice play on words there.

When did you see KibaRanger up? I have been on Mandarake nearly every hour every day for the last 2 weeks waiting for one to appear.

Nope, even being broke does not work as you find a way to still buy more.

Well, I just found him (Sold Out) a few different times in the last few days worth-

Yep. Totally agree with that one.

The order window for the 2 pack closes on December 6. Yokatta is different. They order some larger quantity and they run out when they run out. They don't put in orders based on demand. They just max it out I think.

Nippon Yasan functions a similar way I think.

wow thank you! they have a great price on them too, i might have just found my new middleman service.

ah December 6th is what i was looking for, but if this other site has them for less and i dont have to pay upfront anyway, might as well

No problem, though Ive only used them once and that was because they were cheaper than the plave I used for a few TWE before. So no clue on shipping and such yet! :lol

These figures are awesome, thanks for the warnings but I played around with the figures and they are so awesome. Thanks so much, also with Bill Me Later from PayPal even being broke won't stop me lol.

I told you people being broke doesnt stop you! :lol

Glad youre having fun with your figures man!

The ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff...

Why has he not been showing up whenever I pull up the listings? I guess it won't matter now since Amazon is supposed to be getting the US version on Wed, but still.

What search are you using? I just searched Kibaranger in kanji, or try Dairanger.

THese are what I have saved in my bookmarks:

I use figinstock, which helps. I'm pretty sure it was late, like it is currently. Mandarake is odd. You find great stuff in those hours between late night and early morning, and then mid morning like 11 am (East Coast time). You just have to stalk the site and use figinstock. I search Mandarake like a mad man when I'm looking for something. I've passed up Kibaranger twice now, and RS Shenlong a few times I think. I decided that the extra $20 premium for Kibaranger wasn't really worth it to me in the end. I can put that towards finishing one of my Robot Spirits "teams", I still need one figure from Seed, Wing, and Evangelion respectively. lol.

Ive noticed most of the time, searching SHF or something like that, doesnt work well.
Try Dairanger-http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en...=1381040101561

Or, Kibaranger (Which, strangely brings up AKibaranger)-http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en...rategy=keyword

Yeah, exactly. You have to be creative when searching Mandarake. I prefer to using specific keywords rather than things like SHF or D-Arts. With the the exception of Armor Plus which seems to work pretty well. In most cases though, try to find specific kanji and try a few different keywords out with the sold out listings showing so you know what works and what doesn't.

Thanks =) I am just waiting for good deals to find more figures because I have limited funds.

Yep, Ive tried to use the ShF thing, doesnt work well. But, by series, it works pretty well. Or Senshi or Rider. :lol

What I always do, I might have bought A LOT of stuff lately, but I do save money compared to what I couldve spent! :lol

My recent gotta catch them all PAK SF/MGS & Armor Plus YST pretty much wiped me out, lol. Thank you Amazon, Mandarake, and Tokunation! :)

I can only imagine how much extra money I would spend if Mandarake combined shipments from separate stores, and had more good deals. They're pretty good as it is, though in some cases they are just as pricey as ebay. I've gotten into the habit of even getting regular SHF releases from them because it's half the price of what they cost here. Just get a few and shipping is so cheap SAL.. Mandarake is like a Toku collectors best "dealer" lol.

Mandarake is the Kingpin of the Plastic crack drug lords. :lol You want another siite to add? Check out Jungle Special collectors shop. They do used stuff like mNdarake and sometimes have better deals!

If Mandarake is the Kingpin then I'm at least the North America supplier :lol

Jungle Special collectors shop is pretty cool too. I've yet to buy anything there but I've noticed their prices are generally pretty close to Mandarakes.

So true, you provided me with the "sample", now I collect PAK DC Variant figures. lol.

I've bought from JUNGLE many a time and they are great. The worst experience I've ever had with them is simply having someone else buy something before I could.

Will second that lol....*goes to sales thread*

Oh my, the MMPR White Ranger is already released some places?

A number of ebay sellers have him right now as well as Ninja Storm Red Ranger. I have both coming by the middle of the week.

Amazon says they will be shipping my preorder out on Wed.

Thanks for the info, all.
I really need to get more involved in this forum.

My local pla@e has had mmpr white since last monday....

Hell yes you are! :lol Id say youre the one who told me about them, and Ive ordered about 10 things through you :lol

JUNGLE is pretty good, Ive got a few things that I kept not finding on Mandarake.

Yea, that happened once, but they were great in that they let me add something else to my order so the shipping didnt kill me.

Thirded.

So when do you think we will see the Gaim goodness? Isn't a show coming up in November?

It came out yesterday, didn't it?

He means a Tamashii show, not Gaim's series. :lol Meaning SHF Gaim.

Yeah, it's November 1-3.

I think he meant the Figuarts

Probably in Feb or March.

Got my confirmation email from mandarake for Abyss and Infinity, and a cancellation as well.

I hate that I only just started buying shf a few months ago, but, I'm really enjoying the hunting on mandarake. I feel like a king when I get that confirmation email :thumb:


Is the SAL shipping of Jungle expensive? How does it compare with mandarakes?
