That's kinda odd. How do you have it connected? Pics maybe?

It's essentially this without the extra parts, just the LED.

Yay order went through on Mandarake for Gridon and Kurokage! Now I just need Zangetsu Shin, Mango/Kiwi, maybe Jinba Gaim and Kachidoki and I'll be caught up.

Aren't there a few Zangetsu Shins up on mandarake? Been there a while as well.

Well, I just put in a Mandarake order for Shin Zangestu and Jimba Gaim. Hopefully I'll get at least one of them.

Yeah but I just bought two ACs and don't want to pay more than 3000 yen for Zangetsu Shin.

This was a lot of work, but worth it i think.

still no word from hlj on Kachidoki AC for anyone?

Got AC kachidoki arms in hk (I think some stores recieved them yesterday). Cant wait to crackIit open :).

just ordered Kachidoki Arms Gaim from Mandarake this morning, hope i get him.

What on earth is up with HLJ? There's still no sign of anyone getting their Kachidoki AC order in. Did anyone get it?

I seem to recall HLJ had him for mid April release? They may not have gotten them in yet, I'm still waiting on my preorder as well.

I saw late April.

Late April might be a restock. Street date on these was 2 weeks ago

For Kachidoki Arms? Preorders didn't even open up until around March 1st. Are you sure you're not thinking of Jinba Arms?

Sorry, i got in my head the figure released around the same time as the Toqger Ressha for some reason.

I may be wrong about end of March, but Wotakufighter is usually quick off the mark with releases and his review went up 8 days ago. Plus I ordered Kachidoki Arms from Mandarake this morning and they dont normally appear there until a week after release.

According to the release dates on Shukuenshinobis blog the release date was 5th April. And he's nomally pretty accurate. These things have been in the wild for about a week. Its entirely possible the over demand for stock for this line has seriously slowed down a lot of retailers due to the domestic demand.

Given how rare these figures have gotten as the line has progressed, its likely demand far outstripped stock and HLJ is receiving multiple deliveries, but thats pure conjecture. Im not aware of HLJ being slow receiving stock, but to be honest, the regularity their preorders fall through for me, I never bother with them and just nab instock items.

Mandarake has pricey AC11's. I ordered 1 and they still list more 4500y

Hesei/Showa Lock set up for 3500 on Mandarake

I have a theory on the Wizard All Dragon Lock Seed, You know how the Decade Lock Seed's attack sounds were all words, & barely any real attack noises, for example, Decade's squash: Final Attack Ride (DecaDriver Sound) De-De-De-Decade (boing) so here's my theory:

Squash: Water Dragon- jabba jabba bassha zabun zabun
Ole: Hurricane Dragon- byu byu byu byu byu byu
Sparking: Land Dragon- don de do do dogon don de dogon

But of course they would all be in the style of Gaim & the addition of "Please" is optional.

DX Lock Seed Kamen Rider Taisen Set is already sold out on CStoys. I doubt they will get more in stock soon since Mr. S said on Facebook that he doubts there is a second wave due to the Gaim related toy shortage here in Japan soon.

saw a set of those on mandarake this morning!

Now that i'm almost caught up on the series I'm really itching to get in on the dx driver, dx locks and the the rp weapons except amiami seems to be sold out on everything ><. Anyone know how often their stock updates and is HLJ a good substitute to check?

id look up the stock on mandarake mate, or jungle, they get a LOT of excess stock and normally the prices are very reasonable.

HLJ rarely restock, but if they have stuff in stock its certainly worth a go.

I have a bad history on Mandarake since they double the price for my item for shipping and they told me that they will ban my account the next time if I want my order canceled.

For Kamen Rider stuff, I stick with Toy Arena, CStoys, Ebay, Amazon, Image Anime, Big Bad Toy Store and HLJ.

How did they double the price of your shipping?

I think he meant that what he ordered ended up being double what it cost because of (price of item)+(price of shipping). I'm glad my SengokuDriver was only 4000 yen before shipping, then 3000 yen shipping after I added it and another item. Then again, I went with SAL and they were nice enough to let me go with it :lol

Oooooooh! I get it. I thought they'd done something wrong somehow. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

What he said. I order Ultra Act Ultraman Taro and it was 3000 yen. The item end up being 5000 yen and I was told that I didn't have to pay for shipping. It took me two days for them to reply back for my e-mail.

They told you that you didn't have to pay for shipping or there was no shipping rate when you checked out? That's standard policy. They don't give you the shipping cost until they get the package made up and sized/weighed. Also, they generally indicate that it can take up to three days for replies. I'm just not seeing where they did anything wrong.

im pretty sure it was down to misunderstanding the system there.

personally i stick with mandarake and jungle, quick shipping, yes it costs money but its far lower than ebay etc. Plus they both dont get hit by customs charges.

No offence to US based retailers, but the markup they add is insane at times. granted its necessary, but if im getting international shipping I try to avoid companies that add a mark up.

Decent exchange rates always help

Basically my reasoning.

It's not so simple ordering outside the US.

Exactly. Being in the UK ive got to be very smart how and what i order

A set of candy toy Lockseeds set for a May release includes Peach Energy, Ryuki (Survive), Faiz (Blaster Form) and New Den-O, as well as a cheaper equivalent to Kachidoki which features a regular casing.

I may need that New Den-O Lock

That would be Set 7. And Kachidoki was the seed we didn't know about. I believe the other 4 have been known for a while, but I'm very glad to see pics. I don't think I'll be buying the case. Probably just pick up the 3 Riders from CS.

Eh. I'll go for the Kachidoki if only to say that I have one.

Didn't think final form Lockseeds would get made too... Great, now I'll probably want a Kiva Emperor if they make one.

dont see much point in a kachidoki that doesnt have the functionality for Kiwami, but i guess its a budget alternative.

Set 8 is WCJX, PuToTyra, Cosmic, and Infinity. So I'm going to say the rest will get final form seeds too at some point.

I don't think there'd be a way to incorporate that with the Candy budget.
