Pre-orders already?
Well, makes sense. It's coming out in July after all. Guess we won't see many SoCs this year huh?

Yes! Managed to snag him at amiami! They announced the dates for the pre-orders on the tamashii webpage awhile back so I was ready and waiting. (^.^

I got one at HLJ but really wanted Amiami to bundle with another July PO. Oh well, anything is better than getting stuff 2 months after the fact with bluefin.

Completely missed out on the POs. Sigh. Well, part of the fun is tracking on down now.

CDJapan still has him. Only thing is that if you pay by PayPal they take your payment up front. If you pay by CC they put a temp authorization for full amount which will drop off after about 5 days to check if your card is valid. They take the amount when your item ships. Funny is that if you try to do a search for GX-69 or even Goldymarg nothing shows up. I had to go to their homepage and clicked through all their new products. www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEOGDS-134475BTW, they're shipping rates are pretty high. ¥7600 for EMS. Came out to $206 shipped. Pretty high for an "accessory"

I'm thinking about buying this anyway despite missing out on GGG because...well, I've a gut feeling this'll be a lot harder to find in the aftermarket at acceptable prices than GGG.

Just Goldymarg. Thought that maybe I'd go for SAL to even out the cost of 17100 yen but that was 6500 by itself. Funny how Goldymarg sold out quicker than the GX-68 in most places. EDIT: Just saw the GX-69 shows up as 2738 grams if that makes a difference.

I pre-ordered mine from AmiAmi last night. I guess that I was the one who secured the last one.

Hmmmm ... sold out everywhere ! I wasn't expecting this item to be sold this fast! To me from the photos it looks more like an src item than an actual SOC item ! I saw it on amiami and I wasn't sure I want it ... but poof ... it is gone !

Pretty high for an "accessory" Thanks for that! Weird...CD Japan's search clearly doesn't work great. I went there as soon as my first choices (i.e. Ami2, HS, NY, and HLJ) went dry...and searching under "Chogokin" got me nothing for the GX-69. Anyhow, appreciate it. Order placed. Can't believe I'm putting up $200ish for a transforming hammer. Orange hammer for that. Maybe it's the number 69 that gives it its um...worth. :-D

I saw it on amiami and I wasn't sure I want it ... but poof ... it is gone ! Hm... I had a sneaking suspicion that Goldy would sell out much faster than GGG. In addition to the more prohibitive price, the quality of the figure was still up in the air. After it was released, and people realized that it had phenomenal fit and finish, it was highly sought after. Now that people are assured of the quality, they would be more willing to purchase Goldy. Not to mention, those who already own GGG would be more likely to purchase Goldy, so there is a wider "install base", for lack of a better term.
