Again;
Big kudos to both Bandai and Bluefin for making both this and the GX-71 widely available for damned near excessive periods of time so that everyone interested could snag them.

What are the chances of Bandai – or one of their affiliates – putting out a video preview/review of the GX-88 prior to it’s official street date release?
On a related note, nothing would build hype more than someone like Kuma getting his hands on this thing early, so that he can do what he does.

But if you purchase it in the USA then you should see a bunch of video and photo reviews before your USA release day/week since they will be a month or so behind japan.

the fact we have two message boards where by news of (voltron) golion and dairugger updates are getting mixed up is probably a good thing

Is there anyone still selling PRE-ORDERS? Or is it done now. I've ordered extra, so I can help you out with the Pre-Order.

Gamestop is already sold out, also they are still new to the preordering of SOC. Many are waiting for the result of their preordering of GX-71 from them. Please don’t use NIPPON YASAN! These people are the worst! I am currently in a PayPal dispute with them over a preorder from months ago....Customer service is severely lacking

Sure I'll gladly post why they're garbage.
1. Get an item in stock and notify you it's gonna be in sooner, just to not ship it unless when they feel like it. 2. They upscale prices on figures by taking them down then putting them back up at a higher price. 3. Will try to not refund even before the item is in stock(so I had to cancel my orders via PayPal which was one of the best decisions I made).
If they work for you, by all means go for it but that's my experience with them and my viewpoint on them still stands. Slimeball company. I've ordered from Japan before(Gundamshop online but before it was called bandaishoponline)and didn't have to wait 2 to 3 weeks for a notification, they shipped asap. These figures are expensive so at least a business can give common courtesy and give update to customer (I have emailed them and they gave the bullsh*t answer that they didn't receive parcel but yet I'm seeing peeps on FB get theirs shipped while others don't). Sorry for long post but yea just thinking of them really gives me a bad vibe.

I’ve noticed NY is inconsistent in how fast they ship out items. For example, my GX-71 took about 10 days from release date to ship out. My FA Zambot 3 was shipped on its release date and I got the preparation in progress and shipped emails within 30 mins of each other. My VF-31S armor parts again took about a week before they shipped. Nowadays I have to try to be patient with them. Know that you WILL get your order. Even if it’s a bit later than other retailers.
