mog_kupo Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 Nice price on the 00 Raiser But Im hopeful to see it a little bit lower on Mandarake, the new taxes here in Mexico are a pain in the ass for collectors Quote
pafy6285 Posted October 30, 2019 Posted October 30, 2019 Those looking for the MB Strike Freedom Soul Blue ver., it seems to be available now at Bluefin for $270: https://www.bluefinbrands.com/strike-freedom-gundam-soul-blue-ver-gundam-seed-destiny-bandai-metal-build.html Quote
no3Ljm Posted October 30, 2019 Author Posted October 30, 2019 Oh man. Wish I have extra moolah for that. That's a great price locally. Quote
no3Ljm Posted October 30, 2019 Author Posted October 30, 2019 I guess it's a sign for me. I tried ordering it 4 times and their server won't let me. Not meant to be I guess. Quote
mog_kupo Posted October 30, 2019 Posted October 30, 2019 Great price for those of you on the US And I just got a big haul from Mandarake and HLJ Quote

Yeah , accepted smoothly, but I did have to reset my password. With CA tax it’s $300. Theres another store that have it too but it’s $319 with free shipping and no tax , so about $20 more than bluefin. https://surethingtoys.com/products/bandai-metal-build-strike-freedom-gundam-soul-blue-ver-limited-edition?variant=30359634968681 Quote

Not sure what's going on with their server since it won't accept my order for the 5th time. And thanks for the other link. I was trying not to spend more and the $300 is already a stretch for me as of this moment. Quote
F360 Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 While looking at Metal build I notice you can get the new METAL BUILD Double OO raiser Designer Blue Ver for a good price now. There's buy it now prices at yahoo auction for 30,000 but then you will need to pay proxy fee which to be on the safe side is 700 yen, and then you will need domestic shipping which can be around 1000 yen.. And then whatever international shipping you want to use. https://www.fromjapan.co.jp/en/auction/yahoo/input/j600496414/lgk-link_top_search But since they have a 10% off at Rakuten, you can get it from this seller for 31000 after instant 10% off and free domestic shipping If you want just a straight up Basic Forwarding Plan it's only 0 yen. But the Buyer Protection Plan at 700 will cover everything. Then you just need to select what international shipping to use when it arrives at their warehouse https://www.fromjapan.co.jp/en/special/order/confirm/puremiamuserekuto:10015254/2_1/lgk-link_top_search Quote
davidwhangchoi Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 is that the going price for 00 raiser? i'm skipping him. Quote
F360 Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 The going price right now is around $310 to $385 shipped. It have a off gray and blue camo shading along with some metallic purple . I was going to skip it too since I already have the original and asking a proxy to get it for you from an Event is a expensive hassle. But with the price right now, it's doable for me. (signing up for some OT) There is another batch coming out in October too for those that was able to preorder it Quote

Sometimes you just have to know when the universe says that it;'s probably not a good idea this time. I just went through the same thing with a new car. Every step seemed like I was encountering some sort of hurdle. I didn't want the car THAT bad. I cut the deal loose. I'm glad I did. Quote
Scyla Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Never used YAJ before. Is there an English version of the site? I want to place a buy it now order with a proxy service for the 00 Gundam but I don‘t know how to find fitting offers. Mandarake had few listings right after the event for 32k/35k JPY but it dried up it seems. Thanks Quote

Thanks There’s no English ver , you can use google translation, but I normally just use the proxy’s own site which will search from their end and have their own filter settings on the left , from buy it now to different store , by price low to highest, etc since I will be using them to help me order anyways. i used fromjapan for Yaho auctions , I posted some links earlier. Rakuten have some good prices too . Quote
carlsylar Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Just got mine, looks great, I’m pretty satisfied with this edition since I missed the first release edition and can’t afford the trans-am one T.T. The color is tempting, it actually looks way better than it in the picture! Quote

Thanks use this search keyword in YAJ: metal Build ダブルオーライザー The keyword is basically the whole word (double olyzer) not 00. Using '00' will just produce a small amount of results. Quote
sqidd Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 I blame @Kuma Style for this purchase. And now that I have one of these Metal Build good guy Gundams in my hands.............the zillion dollars I'm probably going to spend on more. Quote

They are my favorite figures and simply the best version of that suit. If you are curious about the shows I can PM some suggestions to get started. Quote
