will bbts carry this? 

Sad to say, no. Japan-only Item. It's also not showing on other P-Bandai region sites.

Done!

Thanks, it seems paying upfront to avoid pre-order madness is the norm now.

Thanks for A-E link.  That was painless and I like not having to wait in anticipation until midnight.

With AE just remember you have to pay for it to confirm your pre-order for these TWE items. It's stated during the ordering process, but there have been a few members here and there who have gone through checkout not realizing they needed to come back into their account and actually click the button to pay now.

Waiting for Nippon Yasan, they are usually the cheapest and best customer service

NY is dead, have been for a while now.

You cannot order from them, and even if you found a way to you shouldn't.

I'm pretty sure @davidwhangchoi knows and he's just mocking NY.

Sounds like my cue to setup a new website. Take orders and ignore everyone, it'll be faithful to the original!

You could probably hire @Slave IV as your US Ambassador now that his NY gig dried up.

If anyone else is willing to sell me Japanese toys for so low, it puts them out of business, I’d be happy to shop with you!

The pre-order is still up at AE, sounds like this release isn't very popular.  Due to the fact we've all already discovered the AX's engineering deficiencies? The questionable color?  Bogue sucking?  All of the above?

You forgot how the international market's only way to watch the relevant movie currently have been camrips or going to Japan.

I'm going to postulate that the "idol troupe" part of the fanbase venn diagram is a lot bigger than the "mecha" portion. 

Also Bogue sucks, his livery isn't that great, and the AX is a letdown.

You mean the engineering on this release is a let-down, right?

Pre-order is still available at Big In Japan: https://www.biginjap.com/en/completed-models/26838-macross-delta-dx-chogokin-vf-31ax-kairos-plus-bogue-con-vaart-use.html

Definitely feels like a shelf-warmer.

I can’t remember coming across a TWE item that became a shelf warmer.

Kakizaki wasn't cut-throat, but did eventually sell out. Sheryl I remember seeing on sale in a few places, still never bought one. 

[davidwhangchoi]

Bogue is trash, that's why

Apparently the next preorder will be Max‘ YF-29 on April 25th. Or at least more information about the preorder.

…poetry will be released.
