Fifteen is Premium Bandai. And the Rider Taisen set is retail.

No word from hlj yet for me either but I got up early and picked up one from CSToys so happy about that!!!

No luck on Kachidoki from CStoys this morning

Had it in my cart but while changing shipping it went out, really wish there was a 2 minute timer or something to keep them in the cart during checkout. I also noticed it took a minute or 2 past the activation timer going to zero to have it show up as in stock, is that normal? This is the first time I've tried getting something through them at activation.

Anyway, decided to console myself with Gridon and Kurogage off Mandarake (assuming neither is sold out).

The last few times I got up for a release they hit the cart probably 2 minutes after the hour or so and then just have to be so quick and have everything ready.

That was definitely not normal, usually it changes to in stock as soon as you refresh on the dot, but today it didn't go up until 1 and a half minutes...because of this I missed out on it because I had to go to work straight away. Though I guess it was bound to happen eventually, I'm usually part of the group that would bag the few ACs they get in haha. Did it three times in a row with Gridon, Kurokage and Jinba Arms.

Still waiting on HLJ, I'm actually not sure if I've missed out yet as no one has explicitly stated their order has entered processing yet.

Dug through my Lock Seed haul. I ended up with 1 Peach Energy, 2 Regular Shocker, and 1 broken Regular Shocker. No LEDs. Now I have to go back to trawling Mandarake for one. I am a very sad panda today.

Well... at least you can make some back by selling the extra Shockers? Unless the Shocker one is unusually high, the LED one should be about 2000 yen and the regulars sells for 600-800 yen there, so you could still make a few bucks selling them yourself to offset the cost.

Yeah, I paid around $20 for the four of them so I'm not out that much. But that's a good idea. I need to take apart the broken one to see what the problem with it is. If I can get that one working, I'll try to sell the other two. Thanks for the advice!

Cheer up bud, luckily, an LED Shocker lock seed usually costs 1200 instead of the usual 2000 yen. I've seen one pop up every so often, you just need to check
