EDIT:
Seems like it's a Tamashii Nations exclusive for 5.980 yen. Last edited by Kiryu; 07-31-2018 at 11:07 PM.. |

I figured this was going to happen one way or another.

Officiall pics are out:
http://www.taghobby.com/archives/301351 I'm digging the sword. But I already have Orb Origin, don't need this one. You could get lucky, during the last few years Tamashii Nations exclusives got a second wave release through Premium Bandai, so middleman services carried them just like Web-Exclusives. Don’t know if it happens this year too though. |

Hold on. Why is Orb Dark being released in August if the event is in October?

Hmmm, probably going to want to pick this one up. Thankfully October release means plenty of time to see how much this is going to be in R/B first.

So I'm confused and also hopeful.
All the Tamashii Nation Events exclusives are now up for pre-order on Nippon-Yasan. Which is a middleman site. And the exclusives can be ordered by people outside Japan. Where the event they are exclusive to is being held. Unless I'm misunderstanding something, am I right in assuming you can "order"/reserve the exclusive figures from the events and have them shipped over? |

Last year they made the event exclusives available for preorder to Japanese customers, which could then be picked up at the event. For the most part though the whole thing was a massive shambles and barely anyone managed to do it, if I remember correctly.
The fact middleman services have them up for preorder now suggests to me that Tamashii have done the same thing again and they're available for "preorder" to be picked up at the event, only this time it's far less of a shambles. So you're right in saying that these can be ordered by people outside of Japan yes, I've got Orb Dark ordered on Nippon Yasan. I don't think anything has necessarily changed in the order process itself though other than it being much less hassle this year.

So, um... Orb Dark is still up for purchase on Nippon Yasan, and the event is long over.
This confuses me. |

Also, it's Nippon Yasan; they always keep a few figures to themselves to sell them for scalper prices later. Hasn’t happened to Orb Dark yet, but Build Black Hazard for example is priced at 15000¥. |
