I really like Omega's combat knife. I wonder why it wasn't used in the show. It was clearly completely designed when they were still filming the show, we saw a mini version included with the toy belt announced before Amazons started airing.

Maybe it got replaced by the sickle?

There's still one more episode though, right? Maybe it's used in the season finale. There's still an entire second season of opportunity for him to use it as well.

For anyone who missed it and decided not to go with some place like HLJ, AmiAmi has the SS W up for preorder again, though the discount is only 5%.

Okay, and what is that supposed to mean? Heaven forbid I would rather support the shows officially.

Kain, he was already told to stand down. I suggest you do too so we can keep this thread on topic.

Now back on topic, I love the two Amazon designs, but alas, don't think I can grab them in their release months. Will keep an eye out for Mandarake though

Went ahead and added it to my AmiAmi order anyways, I'd rather avoid HLJ's HLJness and prefer consolidating orders when I can.

Speaking of, paid my AmiAmi order with Ghoststriker off this morning. Shipping was a bit higher than usual, so there's the rise in EMS kicking in. I see AmiAmi added DHL as an option, but that was nearly 5000 yen more than EMS, so I don't see how that will be helpful for US customers (but hopefully for those outside of the US or North America?).

I'm hoping the exchange rate with the yen gets back to being more favorable, because otherwise I may actually regret going through AmiAmi for so much.

Actually if it's Omega getting a variant, it could very well be his "incomplete" form from when he first transforms. That's the only real variant I can think of and the only other version of Omega they COULD do.

I absolutely agree. The discounts seem to have gotten a bit smaller, too. They're still a better deal than a lot of places, but their advantage seems to be shrinking and considering what a mess ordering is on drop night I may start looking into other options.

Still better than nothing...went ahead and pre ordered

Yeah, that was exactly my thought, too. :D

I expect the secondary market for this one will probably be beastly. Kabuto was insane, thank goodness for the re-release.
