Now it shows 'Soon Available'. Got my email receipt, account shows the order confirmed. Guess I'm done. wow - congrats, lucky you! Unless you plan on getting duplicates, you can go to bed now...

Just had a cup of coffee to stay fully awake for the PO madness LOL. I am guessing this will be even crazier than the DX YF-19 full weapon pack PO back in April... Quote

Thanks yeah that's what i thought... 34 mins from now, or less, if history repeats itself with HLJ accepting orders 5 mins ahead of schedule like they did with the YF-19. Quote

rdrunner Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 so is amiami the only site with a direct link available as of now? thanks. Quote

Quote
chyll2 Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 that is why I am monitoring this thread and not the sites. Quote
Chronocidal Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 Yeah, the fact that anyone is saying it might be 3 PM in Japan is enough to make me start up the F5ing early to be safe. Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 I'm betting it's showing local time, rather than JST. I'm over in PST and it's showing 0:00, which is midnight. I'm guessing it's showing 3:00 for those on EST. Quote

davidwhangchoi Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 ok sounds like it's adjusting to user time zone then Quote

dapro Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 Why you people in the East coast still up? Go to bed and get your rest! I'll let you know I got one or not tomorrow. LOL Quote

So yeah I'm going to be here for the next hour and a bit anyway. "WFH" tomorrow... Quote
tjdetweiler Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 Your local time, my time would be 7 pm and says on the website 7 pm which is equivalent to 4 pm JPT Quote

orindlt Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 My equivalent is 4pm Tokyo Time (which is 5pm Australian Eastern). But, you know, F5 just in case in 12 minutes. Quote
rdrunner Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 I am not seeing a few regular members who were around for the YF-19 PO... seems a little strange if this is going to be less popular than the DX YF-19. Quote

I'm getting too old for it. Think I'll hang it up for the night, laugh at all the misery as I peruse the MW posts in the morning with a nice cup o' hot Joe in my hands, and then pray to god that he'll have something left for me in December. Good night all. Quote
Hiriyu Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 I've never purchased from Amiami before. Are the preorder quantities granted "add-to-cart" or "check-out" first? Meaning, will I be racing to enter my card credentials against those of you that already have them saved? Quote
Hikaru1234567890 Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 I legit have 4 stores open up for putting down a preorder on this beauty. can't wait till this comes out in December! Quote
Pedro2k6 Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 I think the first release edition (with fancy stand) will come early. Then the normal release. Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 I do want that stand, because bling. Quote
