So I have the answer concerning the "licensing issues" with Japanese Star Wars toys from HLJ. Only model kits are affected.

I specifically asked for the SHF's to which they replied:

"At this time, only kits are affected, not figures."

They also uploaded a video to their YouTube-Channel where they mention that they only take the model kits down, not any other Star Wars-products from Japan.

And if retailers don't know about it yet, I'm pretty sure it won't be a problem in the near future. If Disney/Hasbro would want every Japanese Star Wars product gone from the international market they would've done it by now.

Looks like Bluefin has got news of the cancelled Amazon pre-orders and are looking into it:

"We're working with Amazon on the issue of cancelled preorders for Tamashii Nations items & we hope to have a resolution for you soon. Thanks"

So it's on Amazon. Interesting.

I'm glad somebody finally got through to them. Hoping they address the bigger picture with Amazon as well as this one case.

As far as I'm aware, "cancelled preorders" is just Gohan. There's still delisting and just not listing the other items.

I must admit, I was amazed myself. I asked them on Facebook if they were still doing Figuarts because I've had several orders canceled now and so has a couple of friends. One had his Sailor Pluto order canceled, another was I believe a Digimon figure, while my Try Chaser and Dusty Godzilla 64 were canceled in addition to Gohan.

Yeah Figma Thor looked nice. I even prefer the full armored look, but the QC is just standard Figma, not up to par compared to Figuarts. I had wished Bandai made the first suit first, and gave him the cloth cape like the Figma. Hope Bandai is seeing fabric a more viable option with the release of OWG Omnimon.

Yeah, he does kinda have the derp face. Figma Thor looked nice. I even prefer the full armored look, but the QC is just standard Figma, not up to par compared to Figuarts.
