I logged in yesterday out of the blue and noticed this PO, but I am traveling and in the Asia time zone not my normal US time zone, so was confused and forgot to check just now. I will wait for WW release or get one via proxy on Japan release day. I have done that for a few missed PO and it went well. So no big problem. -
missed another PO. 4 hours too late
-
missed the PO on this, well will have to wait until release day and try to get one.
-
Really like to get the KÄMPFER but missed the PO. Now US PB is avaiable at about $400 USD. Ouch. Any other choice?
-
Nice review. Came here to post the link but was 1 hour late
-
Getting one will be super hard.
-
I know. The shield tip the scale for me. Bandai scam!
-
tried that, no luck.
-
Pbandai US is congested!! Can't checkout
-
I have not check my card yet (was using my wife's card, so can't check yet as she is away), was just looking at the price stated in the invoice. Edit: but I suspect it will be $309, as I set the payment currency as USD wrongly.
-
I was checking yahoo japan listing prices, it is closing at 40K and above. So people are still paying that level.
-
One of the review in Japan said that on release day, there are tons of the hi nu in the shop near where he live and there is no problem getting one at all. So I am not expected to see it still goes up beyond the retail price. Its seems to have plenty of supply.
-
He is one of my favorite reviewer.
-
I tried the payment setting yesterday before posting, not working. But today when I login to HLJ again, all prices is now in Yen. Seems like it take some time to take effect. The more I think about this, the worst I feel about the price gauging of HLJ.
-
Sometime it works, but most of the time the p-bandai page is region locked. You need a vpn that connect to a Japan server to see the page properly.
-
I see. So they pocket the 10% extra. Thx. So the exchange rate they use is still a bit worse than what google uses. Even paypal rate of 127.1 yen to a dollar put 35200 at $276.95 So HLJ is price gouging big time. Over 10% extra. Thx also for the pbandai link for the bazooka. Seems like ordering will start 16:00 1st Aug.
-
late the the party, but manage to order from hobby genki.
-
HLJ charged me $309 for the hi nu. The retail price is 32000 yen, with the current exchange rate, I was hopping that it will be less. What was the original yen price for this in HLJ? I can't seems to change the price to Yen in HLJ anymore. Thinking of ordering the hyper bazooka to get the shield, but no PO page available. Anyone have the link for the p-bandai page that I can use for proxy service?
-
missed the PO. And not happy about having to pay $60 for my "mistake". Might wait for release day.
-
Any other link (on top of AmiAmi, NinNin and Luna) up yet for the hi nu metal build? HLJ?
-
I do hope Bandai reissue the Nu, the KO version might be somewhat possible but at least the fin fennel seems to be fixed and not separable.
-
I can't justify twice the money, and I do prefer the Bandai version. So I am hoping for a possible reissue. I am also putting aside money for the possible PO of the sazabi. Looking forward to see your display with the Nu.
-
How about the KO version that. cost 1.5K which include the fin funnels?
-
Thanks for the heads up. They did just send me a notice that my items is now shipped (at least I have a tracking number).
-
each of the decal on it own will be manageable, but there are so many of them.
