Yeah, I've had my alarm set all week!! I think Japan pre-order typically go up between 3PM-5PM JPT, so that's around 6AM-8AM GMT Amiami usually put them up with a countdown timer for when pre-orders start, so I will likely jump on their first when I wake up at 6AM and hopeful i'm quick enough to snag one before it's too late! They really need to limit quantities to 2, or even 1 per household with this figure! Sounds like I will be setting an alarm then. I am not missing out on this figure. I am worried he is going to sell out instantly everywhere at that price. Even the U.S. release... Has me nervous. I can say without a doubt it will be my new favorite figure thus far. |

If you are based in North America and benefit from free domestic shipping, plus you don't mind waiting until late July for release then I would recommend you sit tight and wait for the Bluefin distributions. For everyone else, ordering from Japan is probably the cheapest bet. My CDJ order came in at 2500 (after applying my current 300 yen discount) and shipping to UK was 700 yen. So basically $28 (20 GBP/24 EUR) shipped. By far the cheapest S.H.Figuarts since the original run of Goku, Piccolo and Gohan back in 2009/2010. I might even keep the multiples on this one  |

Has it sold out on Nippon Yasan as well? I’ve been refreshing all day now and haven’t seen anything go up 😐

They follow none of the Japanese trading guidelines They will put orders up when they feel like it. Typically the day after, but I almost always miss them. |

I spoke with the owner of a shop I've done business with here in the U.S. in the past and he is putting preorders up later this morning. I will probably just go that route at this point. He said he should be able to hook me up with several of them. Sounds like quantity wont be a problem. I feel better now. He said the price is $40 USD... Seems high given it was $27 USD on amiami... I'm not complaining either way. Just want this figure. |

Well like I said, I have an extra order at amiami and Hobbysearch that I am not committed to. So if anyone is desperate, please drop me a PM with your account name and i'll inquire as to whether the pre-order can be transferred.
