I got my Road Sector today, surprisingly, as I didn't expect it until tomorrow. Holy moly this thing is awesome! The box is really nicely done, the paint apps and detailing are exquisite, and it's much larger than the pictures led me to believe. I've never even seen Black but I can say, hands down, this is one of the nicest bikes I've picked up so far. The only downside I can see for some people is the accessory count. One clear plastic stand, a replacement back-end for swapping the cover, and one extra set of handlebars. Honestly, I can't think of much more they could have packed in there, really. A set of hands and a real Tamashii stage would be about it, I imagine. What it doesn't have isn't even close to souring me on it, though. It is gorgeous!

I really wanted it myself but had to pass on it for the initial orders. Just wasn't gonna have that much to spare for it AND everything else that came out recently. I do need ot pick it up at some point though, it is gorgeous.

My haul for this month sans cherry energy lockseed due in today. After catching up with gaim decided to dive into the driver and lock seeds.

Got the conformation that my Gackt Diabolos around Asia dvd had arrived at my Dorm mail and who do I find with him, but my Baron-chibi



I swear I am never using SAL on Mandrake again, it's way too nerve-wracking. SAL normally takes 3-4 weeks to get to me so it's normally a nice alternative but both times I bought from Mandrake and used SAL it had taken 6-7 weeks after they had already shipped it(not including the wait for them to cheek stock/etc)

Still after the adorableness of Sano, Yutaka, and Ryoma's actor playing with him I'm glad I finally got my Baron-chibi. Now I just need to get Gaim to complete the set.

Also I went to the Houston Japanese festival wearing my Baron coat and found what I think was the only Tokusatsu merch, all for $1.25

That chibi is cool! I wasn't able to make it to Japan Fest. I probably would've noticed you if you were wearing a Baron coat.

Interesting. I've been using SAL consistently on my recent Mandarake orders and it's only been taking my stuff on average about a week to a week and a half to get here (I'm in California). I think the longest wait time was two weeks. I've never had anything shipped using SAL, registered or not, take anywhere near that long to get here.

Thanks, he's obviously not as possible as the 66 but I love how big he is and his design.

That's too bad, I thought of wearing my whole Baron outfit but it was a little too hot to do that.

I think it's normally early April, it was the weekend of the 12 this year.

That's what I found so strange about it, honestly I just thought it was a fluke the first time. I'm in Texas so I'm used to a bit of a longer wait but even for me the wait was ridiculous.

I hear you on SAL, man. I bought some Gundams from HLJ like, 2 weeks ago, and there's still no sign of them. I guess it's still within the estimated time, but the last time I ordered from HLJ, I shipped it SAL and it took over a month.
