Hey, my hobby genki gokai red order status says “On Backorder (Paid)”

Is that bad? Did I blow it?

Of course, just tell them what you want to ship and they will give u a quote. They don?t usually reply really quick though but they will

Thanks for the help I really appreciate it

Once an item is in stock, they will message you and then you can ask them 1) to ship it alone or 2) to wait for more releases or 3) to ship together with other items in the warehouse. They will give you a quote based on what you ask.

I always ship at least 3 SHF releases together to save money, never have any problem with them. Just be patient as it will take a couple of days to reply your message.

Got mine at HLJ, he was gone super quick though.

And yes, not on AmiAmi, once again a lottery sale at the Japanese branch only.

So when exactly does Tamashii realize they can print free money by upping the production run?

So SS Gokai Christmas for this December anyone? :lolol

New Preban Lab Z next week -- their reveals are related to Geats and what they revealed at the 15th Anniversary event. As before I think they're announcing Boost/Magnum and Kotaro; but I could also see them announcing Na-Go at the same time - but probably as one of those "we're announcing this now but her pre-orders go up next month" deals

Got Gokai Red from HLJ when he went up. Was worried I missed it cause the I got a server error the moment I completed the order, but a refresh had it go through.

I'm assuming Amiami probably goes the domestic lottery route for retail SS releases because they more often than not crash the site when they go up due to JP and international customers going for them? In which case the easiest work-around would be Bandai upping the production stock allocations to the retailers they deal with. Since it's literally only the SS stuff that gets different treatment in Amiami's case. Reissues don't get regulated to lotteries, but first runs do.

Hobby Search apparently did a lottery too.

Sure does seem like Bandai has just drastically cut the number produced if multiple retailers are resorting to that. Demand is clearly there, I don't get it...

Hesitated too long at payment stage for Gokai Red at Hobby Genki and it sold out. lol. Also missed him everywhere else so I guess I just won't be getting a SS Gokai Red. At least I still have the original SHF along with the rest of the Gokaigers. lol. I did register for the lottery at Hobby Search so there's still a chance.
