Yeah, that makes sense. I plan on buying a rg gundam real soon, and I was looking at HLJ but with shipping it makes more sense to buy locally.

www.Gundamstoreandmore.com is where I get all my Gundams from they have pretty good prices and theyre in the US

If you ever feel like buying Gundam models in bulk, try HobbyWave. They're based in Canada, but they charge a flat rate $12 shipping. Buy one, buy many. Still $12.

That site is awesome but want I want isn't in stock :/ I plan on getting a RG rx78 with water slides.

Their flat rate shipping is neat. Thanks for the heads up!!

I think that one's usually fairly inexpensive on Mandarake. That's where I bought mine.

Huh, Mandarake still hasn't gotten back to me with an invoice.

On your order from early last week? that's odd. I got mine I think 3 days later, paid as soon as I got it, and it shipped within like 8 hours.

Oh, well I think I may ordered on the weekend, so that may not count. (I can't remember if Japan is a day ahead or behind) Because my first order sold out, but I found the items at the exact same price in a different store.

Theyre a day ahead.
