Luckily I didn't really want any LED versions, all of the rider locks are still in stock now, so even if I hadn't ordered at activation, I would've gotten it.

Because now I really have missed the LED version. God damnit.

There's lots of hints at it on the site. For starters the "New Arrivals" tab coupled with the big yellow countdown right above it.

They activate new items every Sunday at 8pm JST. They'll usually have one or two videos on YouTube showing what items they got in. Usually uploaded in the Thursday-Saturday range. If you follow their ustream channel, you can watch the unboxings live. Alternatively, you can just sign up for their newsletter which tells you what they will be activating and how many of each item.

An important thing to note is that if you're looking for Candy Toy or Gashapon items, they're usually not included in the big shipment videos because they haven't got them in yet. Those usually arrive on Saturday and they will do demos which are live on ustream and then uploaded to YouTube.

And hey more annoying questions, anyone know what lockseeds are in Capsule Toy set #9?

They can ship them in the same box for you, but you'll still pay shipping cost twice. They don't have a dynamic way of combining shipping like other places.

And Set 9 is Blade/Kiva. Set 8 is Kabuto/Momotaros.
