CSToys only has 6 Dukes going up for sale at 6am EST. Just an FYI.

I managed to get my Professor Wärring from them this morning :)

I got Duke from CSToys as well after HLJ failed me. I pre-ordered back on February 28th and still didn't get it... they had previously pulled through for Zangetsu Shin - I got then Kachidoki Gaim from hobbysearch...

Ive gotten confirmation for a Genesis Driver from Mandarake, so I am now caught up on DX Lockseeds released, well aside from the Fouze and OOO set, but I will be getttin it soon anyway.

Wait, you did you get Wizard and W?

Have we seen a release date for the Kiwami lockseed and AC13 Kiwami Gaim yet? I think they're being released sometime in June, which isn't so far away, but I can't even find an imageless listing on Amazon Japan.

Yep, got it last week, did I mention it or forgot to mention it was confirmed?

Did anyone preorder Bujin Gaim from Cstoys? Been wondering if they sent emails out yet because it's been like 5 days since they got the stock in D:

I still needs Dukes :( HLJ failed me and then gave me a BS excuse on twitter, and CS had like 6 of them so I never had a chance to get one.

Saw one on Mandarake earlier for 3000 yen. Not sure if it's still there though.

Yeah I saw it had sold out. I just barely missed it.

Woaaaaaaaaah.

AC Blood gaim is at 7000 on Mandarake right now.

Glad I got my hook up on this one.

I'll just get the SHF, thanks. I don't need Blood Orange arms that badly.

I know I've complained about Figuarts Bikes on more than one occasion for being expensive paper weights but I think I'm having more fun with the Lock Vehicle than I do Gaim.

The transformation is pretty fun, I like how it folds out origami style though folding out the front of the bike is kinda scary.

Blood Gaim is shipping! :D

Argh, CSToys oversold Duke so I got a refund plus 500 Y credit.

Yeah, I've never been so glad for a repaint announcement before :lol

If it's any consolation Yokatta has yet to e-mail me either about Bujin Gaim.

AC Duke on Mandarake for 3000yen if someone wants/needs him!

Random thought: Why aren't the AC armors fruit scented? That would have been perfect.

It looks like I may have sorted my Duke situation thanks to another user here, so thanks!

But can anyone get me an extra AC Baron? Need it for something special.

Baron Lemon Energy?

Yes sir. Plan to shoot a tutorial gallery of how to make it as well.

Nice. If you manage to get one, I'll buy the spare Banana Arms and Banaspear off of you should you not need them.

Here's one at Shibuya-

It appears that the preorders for DX Durian/Donguri are all closed at CSToys and TokuTakuToys, so that kind of sucks. :/ Will CSToys get some extras or are they only getting enough to fulfill preorders?

EDIT: Nevermind. How reliable is Yokatta? I think I remember hearing something in the SHF thread about lack of customer service?

well of course Donguri and Durian have closed preorders bandai closed preorders for them on the 30th of April.

I don't trust any middleman service still taking preorders after bandai has officially closed preorders.

Yokatta orders a lot. They don't take orders based on orders they receive. They just order as much as they can/want and then sell from their stock.

oh I know they order a lot but it still feels like you are a late comer they will drop at any moment if they have to :P

You know it's gonna happen... (Not in the show of course)

I've ordered from Yokatta for years and never had any issues. They can be slow to respond to emails but I've always gotten an answer and everything I've ordered. And the one time they forgot part of an order they shipped the missing part out right away after I emailed them without any cost. I use them for all my middleman stuff now.

Won an auction for the W/Wizard set and the OOO/Fourze set for uchihabro77. Awesome! :D Now I ned to track another Fourze seed since I sold mine XD

Cheap AC day at Mandarake Shibuya!

Baron - ¥2,200

Zangetsu (Melon Arms) - ¥2,200

Pine/Ichigo - ¥2,200

Gaim (Orange Arms) - ¥2,000

Duke - ¥3,000

Kachidoki Arms - ¥2,500

Put an order in for that Zangetsu, so much for morderating my purchases XD

But at $22 (without shipping etc) there's no way I was gonna pass that up. Now to see if it actually gets honored or not.

Since they're about the same size. Should I wait for Figuarts Sakura Hurricane and Rose (I derped on the full name), or should I buy the AC version now because the SH Figuarts Gaim and Baron'll fit?

Looking at how cheap those two AC lock vehicles are in the sidebar, I'd say go for those if possible.

The AC Bikes are awesome little things - very addicting. But they feel cheap compared to an actual SH Figuarts bike. I am going with the bikes (probably multiples, ugh).

Meant to tell everyone, you know how I sorted my AC Duke situation earlier in the week right? HLJ screwed me so I found the ones I needed on Mandarake and via the boards. So I cancelled the 3 I had on pre-order at HLJ, 4 days ago.

Guess what? Our favorite asshat retailer sent me an e-mail today requesting payment for them anyway. How the hell does that even happen? I CANCELLED them. I don't want them, the money has been spent elsewhere. They weren't even on my account anymore.

I can't get a pre-order with them. Then when I actually can get one it never gets filled, or they outright delete it from my account. But if I remove it by choice because of the previous dickery, the just tack it back on with out my knowledge, demand payment, and I'm the bad customer? Seriously fuck HLJ.

What the actual hell man? That's screwed up shit there.

I know how we all feel about HLJ these days, but it looks like they (FINALLY) put up DX Kiwami for pre-order (also a DX Kiwami/DX Kachidoki set) and the DX Gold and Silver Apple Lock Seed sets. AmiAmi can't be far behind at this point.
