So Bandai has acknowledged the paint mismatch issue on God Gundam shoulders and will be sending out replacements (locals only).

So international customers that purchased from a Japanese based store are screwed then?

Thanks, I don’t think it will come back in stock since it was a pay now preorder I think but it is worth the try.

This is the cheapest one out there that's still available.

KappaHobby has it @ $380 with free shipping.  Less of a blow, I think.

US usually comes a month later.  the US prices may not reflect the Yen/USD rate so importing it may be a better deal unless you have the Oktaku mode TOM points from paid membership deal. 

They're sold out at all the shops I know. Unless you suggest I order at Luna Park for a 25%+ markup and guaranteed crappy packing that ensures it arrives banged up.

I haven't the Metal Build Zeta on any US retailer's website yet. It's sold out at all the online Japanese retailers I know.

Is this a p-bandai release or general store release?

Yes, as mentioned on the initial post. You have to pick up the item on-site. The preorder is thru the LivePocket JP ticketing system. I googled translate the info from this link: https://www.gundam-side-f.net/news/1676.html

LunaPark is offering it for Y13600 more to cover their fees at Y59800.
