technoblue 158 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 1 hour ago, pafy6285 said: My recent orders that were released were shipped on time by AmazonJP (just a few days after release), at least those that are directly shipped by them. And DHL is still quick to deliver. As for GSC itself, don't have any recent orders from that that were released, but from what I've read there seems to be some slow down especially for those with Japan Post restrictions. You can check this MFC GSC forum thread: https://myfigurecollection.net/threads.v4.php?mode=view&threadId=5425&page=12#c-87171631 Thanks for the tip @pafy6285! Nice to see that Amazon JP is still shipping things out as expected. Regarding GS, I've been moving more of my orders to the Goodsmile US shop, but there are still some things that are unique to Goodsmile Global so this is disappointing to see. Oh well. I'll sit tight and see how it goes. Sorry about the minor thread derail there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mantisfists 29 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 (edited) I probably will. I don't know, I'm torn. The Christmas Eve thing sucks for me. That day is essentially Xmas for me since I'm on shift the 25th and 26th. Taking time away from my wife and daughter so that I can preorder this thing just feels wrong. Is it confirmed that it's a TWE or is that what's being concluded from somebody joking that the Minmay figure was going to be a web exclusive?

Even if it’s the 24th , it’s Japan Standard Time so it’ll be the 23rd in the USA . You’ll see more info closer to the 24th . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd rather the preorder be on Christmas Day than Christmas Eve, personally. Since I'll be at work, I'll be available to try and get one (as long as we don't get any calls) and it wouldn't take time away from my family that I wasn't already going to miss.
