The set is in production for one year until 2/21/09 and there are no first print bonuses (unlike the Gundam movie box, which is also a one year production), so there's no real rush to get it. The only reason to pre-order is to get a discount at Amazon Japan for 26% off, but Amazon has quarterly sales, with select merchandise at 30 - 50% off the original price. Among Bandai's releases in past sales, Cowboy Bebop's 5.1 ch Box set a few years ago was 40 and 50% off, and recently the Turn A Gundam box and Gundam First Sets at a larger discount of 30 and 40% off.

I've pre-ordered the Macross TV set, but combined it with some DVD releases that won't come out until August. Usually Amazon Japan doesn't ship orders out until all items are relased, so this way I can be guaranteed the 26% off preorder price, but also cancel if it happens to go on sale by that time.
