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)
-
Hence "pray". Most likely on shop.bandai.com tho. (But US cards only)
-
Lets just all pray it drops on P-Bandai US
-
Would be interested to see which shop in Canada sells it as well.
-
Don't bother refreshing sites that already dropped more than 2hrs ago. If they had to cancel orders they'd be cancelled already. Especially with USAGS where their site literally gets botted instantly. Save yourself some time and effort, install one of those auto refresh and notify extensions for chrome (Trying to find the name of it) Edit: Extension is called Distill. Google it
-
Same. I managed to order from 1 of the sites today, and then for whatever reason my order got cancelled. Maybe because I had to use a reshipper since I'm not in the USA.
-
According to amiami twitter and japanese home page, the devise metal build will be a lottery sale. (And i managed to missed ALL sites releases lol)
-
Long time lurker, first time poster. MB Hi-Nu still available at toyzinthebox for $349. I know their site looks bad but been ordering from them for a while now. https://www.toyzinthebox.com/products/pre-order-gundam-hi-v-gundam-mobile-suit-gundam-char-s-counterattack-beltorchika-s-children-action-figure P.S. I'm not store/site owner, nor am I affiliated with them, but I personally rather supporting local mom and pop stores instead of BBTS.
