When will Bandai USA learn that USD/JPY is no longer 1:100?! https://p-bandai.com/us/item/N2754727001001 400 USD for a 40000 yen item? Disgusting.

I wish they made regular Nu as well; and praying for a Sazabi lol.

Oh man, anime export selling the Festival 2024 Strike Freedom for 79800 yen
-
Nah. That markup on PBan US is ridiculous. (~35% with state tax) Got them via Asia PBan instead for a mere ~2% more than Japan MSRP. Edit: Both Hobby-Genki and Anime-Export restocked as of this edit.

and sold out.

So far the info is: 1st round - Club Tamashii members Ocean or higher, first come first serve, April 18th to April 20th 1st round - Other Club Tamashii members, lottery for chance, April 22 to April 24 2nd round - Club Tamashii members Ocean or higher, first come first serve, May 10th to July 2nd (Not sure why this period is so much longer) 2nd round - Other Club Tamashii members, lottery for chance, May 10th to May 24th https://tamashiiweb.com/store/tokyo/event/detail/202405.html Ocean = If you have purchased more than 250,000 yen of products from a Tamashii store within the past fiscal year (or something)

I do see a 10% coupon. I also "forged" the link to get the 20% coupon, and then I could access the offer page, but it says the coupon is not valid for my account. Thats why I said the 20% offer is account dependent.

Seems like offer is account dependent

As if they'd care.. I end up ordering via Hong Kong P-Bandai and paid ~$250 USD instead of $320. Still more than yen price but not by much.
-
MAYBE BBTS, based on previous history of P-Bandai exclusive metal build drops. Its a big maybe, and expect them to tag extra markup on top of whatever price non-JP PBandai sells for (if it drops at PBandai USA at all) Edit; I quoted the wrong message, was suppose to reply to weiser21. My bad.
-
The same thing happened to Metal Build Strike 10th Ver and 00 Raiser TransAm in P-Ban.jp, but it was released as p-ban everywhere else as a FCFS drop, aside from 00 TransAm not available in US, so not all hope is lost on this one.

https://hobby-bee.com/products/metal-structure-msn-04-sazabi-mobile-suit-gundam-char-s-counterattack Wow. Just wow. $3500 CAD, about $2740 USD. This is just disgusting.

I'm not located at those regions as well. There are a lot of people offering services in those regions if you don't have any FNF in those countries, not to mention you can always find a reshipper service/address.

I was lucky enough to grab both the Destiny Soul Red and 00 Trans Am off Asia P-Ban (And managed to hit a 2nd 00 Trans Am via 2nd or 3rd P-Ban JP lottery) Persistence is the key Dont buy into resale (Unless you really want them)
