I'm still a bit disappointed in the general lack of hands that the web exclusives suffer, but I'm very happy with my Gridon. Glad I was able to buy it off of Uchi last year.

So AmiAmi canceled my Mach and Chase orders without an issue.

They've been good for me cancelling lately. I didn't even contact them about the last two orders, I just didn't pay for them. :/
But they still asked me to pay for Drive (I did) and so far I haven't been banned or anything.

Juspion and Gil Hakaider were due out yesterday, weren't they? Anyone received any order updates?

Yeah I had to cancel a few of my orders as well on NY without paying it. My bill is pretty high at the moment, I need to save up money to pay off other things besides collectables. Oddly enough my account on NY never got closed.

Yeah, Gill Hakaider is out as there was a 2chan thread about him up earlier (and he looks amazing squeeee). Got an email that mine was processing yesterday. Haven't had him or the B-Fighter 2-pack ship yet.

I wonder if places are bluffing about the whole cancelling thing. So far I haven't heard of anyone getting banned from there. I accidentally preordered a second Bravo at NY and they told me if I didn't pay they might cancel it but they didn't and didn't even give me a warning after that or anything.

Thanks! I'm really looking forward to getting him, and Juspion!

My NY order with Juspion & G-Stag/Reddle shipped out last night.

HLJ canceled my orders after 2 no payments (Chase and Mach).

Also my B fighters and mini moon finally shipped.

I've cancelled a few orders at HLJ, but never been punished. Definitely spent way more there than I cancel, so that probably has something to do with it. Haven't ever cancelled from AmiAmi or N-Y because I know their hardline policies, but I get it that sometimes things come up and people would have to.

Cannot wait for Chaser this week. We should be getting galleries of him soon, right? Sculpt looks amazing in promo shots, but I cannot wait to see it up close.

I'm still debating whether or not I'm going to order Tridoron. At this point I probably will since exclusive prices rarely go down and I probably want to complete the set. Still, it's so expensive. Anyone here ever give Nin-Nin Game a go? I've heard on other sites that they're good as long as you don't need their CS. Their price with shipping on Tridoron is enough cheaper than N-Y that I think I'll take a shot with them.

October preorders are going up on Friday.

Kuuga's also getting a reissue, due out in July.

question
 

I know this may not be the correct area for this but, have you guys heard of this line or have any info on it?

Kotobukiya Zoids Aggressive. Seems to be a HMM Zoid but in figure form.

The key difference is that HLJ freely allows cancellations, you can do it with a few clicks in your profile. AmiAmi and NY don't, read the information, it explicitly states they don't accept cancellations.

Of course, they might allow you one or two, maybe more if you're a loyal customer and if they think they can sell the item easily. But I wouldn’t provoke it, I'm fairly certain they'll make use of their rules and ban you if you cancel every second order.

Yessssss, need my Sango.

Also, Kuuga reissue already? Huh. Most likely it sold well enough that they give it another run to coordinate with the Agito release in August. And the TryChaser that's also out in July.

I wonder if Kuuga was a limited run after Hibiki didn't sell very well. He sold out very quickly and I don't think ever reappeared. Bluefin still don't have their stock yet either and he was supposed to release in the US this month. Either way, I'm happy. Kuuga is my favourite Rider and I wasn't able to get him.

Iron Man mark 43 is being re-issued too, which is just as quick. It'd be nice if this was a continuing trend for popular figures.

Yes, please, reissue all the Avengers. I need Cap.


NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED.

Why would Kuuga be getting a reissue? He just came out.

Hibiki sold poorly? I thought he was a top seller when he came out. He is already gone from Amazon itself.

Yeah, I got my Juspion/Gil Hakaider shipping notification last night. Huzzah! Weirdly, it skipped right over 'Preparation in Progress'.

He obviously sold well enough to warrant it? I don't know, I'm just posting what Bandai have announced.

If I remember rightly Blade got a quick reissue too. Not sure if it was this quick but it was faster than usual.

EDIT: Yup, Blade was originally released in Aug and got reissued in Nov.

No idea, but as soon as I saw it on AmiAmi yesterday I pre-ordered that sucker immediately. Love me some Zoids: Genesis.

Like I said, Kuuga disappeared very quickly. It's one of the few times I've not been able to get in on any of the pre-orders at all. I guess Kuuga is just really popular in Japan.

Hibiki on the other hand is still pretty easily to find.

HobbySearch opened up Mashin Chaser again, so I threw down a preorder, cuz I'm addicted to Figuarts and have poor impulse control. XD

Anyone that doesn't have Renewal Kuuga should DEFINITELY buy one.

I still wish Kabuto renewal got a reissued. I still hate myself for not buying him when I got the chance.

Is he not available anywhere now? I never got him either. I assumed I could get him on Mandarake at some point, but I haven't ever watched for him.

Ebay?

lol, nope!

I'll wait for it to show up on Mandarake at some point.

WTF?!

Grandma once said...you are priceless...until you become a collector's item.

to be fair, just because it's listed at that much doesn't mean it sells for that. I didn't check sold items, I just grabbed the first one I found, which happened to be ridiculously priced.

Kabuto renewal is pretty high on Amazon at $90. When I put in "仮面ライダーカブト" on Mandarke and I haven't seen him pop up.

Amazon shoudl be getting Kuuga any time now.

Brilliant Poe, brilliant. :lol

Kabuto is currently up for 8,000 yen on Mandarake, for whoever was asking.

I hope so. I was so excited for Renewal Kuuga, so needless to say this wait has been killing me.

machine chaser and rider chaser review already out today

So we should be expecting payment requests... this weekend?

Yup, their release date is the 29th

Good, the yen's going for 124 to the dollar.

I'm gonna have to pick up those effect parts on Mandarake at some point. Couldn't afford the bike and there's really no point to having a Midnight Shadow Drive with no throwing stars...

I guess that explains why I didn't get a Ami Ami e-mail yet. I can't wait to get mine soon!
