Gundamit has it. Best price I've seen so far. Have used ShowZ countless times.

Nice Rei figure, @anubis20.  

 

CCS Toys Eva Anima.

 

The engineering on this look really good!

Thanks for the clarification @Anasazi37

Side note but related to Yoyaku. The card I used has a different address then my shipping address. I didn't make that change and ordered. I realize this, sent an email to have them change it and got a billing confirmation followed by an email that stated " We have updated your billing address being different then the shipping address and have your purchase secured. We will notify you with the shipping costs once the item is received."

To me anyways, that's a good sign.

Or it could be that now that they have the billing address they will be able to chargee and take the money and run. I jest.

It "should" be up sometime tonight. My time int he Midwest would be 0100 if u are in the US

This one isn't posted yet but I have had tons of success from Anime Export

https://www.anime-export.com/

One can dream. But that has been an issue for....well forever.

I'm not too worried, so long as they aren't marking up the item as the numbers change.

Could just be people adding or removing to the cart.  As nice as it is to see those numbers, the systems that calculate them may not be reliable due to how people add and remove them like that.

Good call for sure!

So, since this is not a WWD release, does that mean we should not expect it to appear at AmiAmi or HLJ, for example?

Is Anime Export different from those 2? I ask because I know I have gotten a few of the TWEs from them

Mine says "(A1) Product Payment".  That could mean I paid and still need to pay for shipping, or it could mean "we have your money and you'll never see it or the product ever again!"

NOW there, right here is that vote of confidence we need!

Oh on peoples orders...look up what status you are. Mine says Status 2...so maybe their second wave of purchase they secured? Just a thought. Or it could mean something different and I am just an idiot

Just now, Chronocidal said:

I do appreciate the fact that they listed the total available.  I did see it go up and down a few times, but they didn't adjust the price.

I think the question will be whether they re-open later with a price increase.

I bet they will. Seems the norm for many places

Just now, dafob said:

I think it did legit sold out after you bought yours. I ordered one and was able to go back and put another in my cart.  I was monitoring their stock and it was gradually going down over the past few minutes.

Damn if this place is legit I'll finally feel somewhat redeemed after all the cart misses over the years.

Just now, Chronocidal said:

Yep, certain sites just open early for some reason, probably to streamline the order process from their allocated TWE order slots.

Others just wait until it opens for real.  Not sure if there is any benefit to either, but I guess ordering after they are opened might be more definite, since you're dealing with orders already placed?  Hard to say.  

Oh theres a benefit. A good nights sleep here in the US!

Welp I will go down or succeed with the rest. I got order confirmation and says "Out of stock" as soon as I went back? Is that like AE when you are limited to only 1?

Just now, scand said:

They are all showing no 'no stock' or 'soon available' is that because they haven't' officially opened yet?

Thats usually the case yes.

There numbers on how many they have left keep fluctuating...down to 3 up to 7 up to 9 down to 3. How?

I was fortunate enough to not get caught up in Nippon-Yasan. And not because I personally was scammed but they took so dang long to deliver items. That alone made me feel it was time to pause purchasing from them. I am genuinely sorry for those that were.

Side note I have that site up. Went from 11 remaining down to 9, then back to 11? Maybe someone backed out...So on the fence here to trust a place I havent used before

Just a pulled quote

"This site belongs to NAME REDACTED, the buyer from Nippon-Yasan who scammed so many people! He is commenting below! Give me back my money! "

But one directly in response for you to make your own conclusions

"Me and other Japanese co-workers didn't knew what the community was talking until me and other Japanese co-workers began to see irregularities affecting our work, and after briefly investigating and find out the harsh reality of what was happening and how the community was suffering, we decided we couldn't continue, and me and other Japanese co-workers decided to quit.

Also, for those not aware, yes, this is happening in a few hours, because today is the 25th, and it's already the 26th in Japan.

TYVM good sir

Is the pre order tonight for US (25-26JAN)? or tomorrow (26-27)? Just want to make sure I set an alarm. I am in for one if I can score. No need for more.

Just picked up one from Nin Nin.  I don't like price, but I'll "dollar cost average" with ones I pick up later. 

Yeah I just wanted it out of the way. Really looking forward to this release though

Mine was ~$295 to northeast US via surface. 

Around 318.00 to the Midwest using surface.

I checked to CA, it's $332 via DHL/FedEx. The shipping was Y8440.

Maybe some PayPal added conversion? It got to my pay with PayPal pop-up and that's where I stopped. Still got one at the 288.0 and in no immediate rush

I’ll let you know how it works out 😅

ooof. Please do! I just had it sent to warehouse for the time being. Im gone for a year here shortly so in no immediate rush per-say.

It is live now

363.00 shipped using FEDEX/PayPal. OUCH!. I guess I wait. At that price I might as well get it from BBTS. Anyone ever use their Surface/Freight feature (Nin-Nin)?
