Oh no.. for Pete's sake.. NO. I am from Singapore. Just to share a few thoughts from comments I have seen on the video. I do apologize for the glitches that happened during the review but I still pride it as being one of the most honest one-take video with no editing done. My purpose since the beginning when I started doing reviews, is to give honest and non-professional reviews. Non-professional in the sense that I don't edit or cut videos if I make mistakes along the way. I am just out there to share, not to become some celebrity youtuber or to earn big revenue out of the videos i do. On the figure, it is excellent but for sure you need to be careful when doing poses cos some parts may come apart. Maybe it's just me being clumsy in the middle of 1:30am in the morning while reviewing this figure. And maybe it's cos i was stretching the limits of the figure to see how far the knee bends. Or maybe my piece has some minor QC issues. Bottomline, I love and enjoy my toys and if parts falling part, paint chipping or parts breaking is part of an honest review, then this honesty is what every collector should know to make an informed decision on whether this figure is worth it. And I also encourage everyone to look at different reviews of the same figure to get more opinions.' Thanks again to everyone who watch my videos. Charles- Been a long time fan of your honest reviews, good to know you're still providing them so keep it up. Being a Dairugger fan from my forgone days in Asia I am eagerly awaiting for mine to arrive here in the states. I know that it takes a lot of time from folks like you to provide these reviews so Thank You! Please keep it up.

same applies here.. its just because u like it.. then everbody should like it too lol besides im not preventing anyone to have either. im not bandai lol..its just imo. To be fair,an SoC quality Albegas has really yet to wow anyone here. Considering the kind of engineering it would take to balance the proportions whilst limiting partsforming as much as one can. Yes its something to look forward to. Theres already few Albegas out in the market.. how Bandai will pull it off considering with GX-88.. they managed to add a lot of improvements from the old Miracle's version. Im sure they will always find ways to release a better product.

What’s the chance of finding this figure at retail price as of today? I was shocked I was able to grab a couple of Gx-71 off Amazon at $265 each last week. I’m hoping for the same luck on this one.

Consider yourself a very....very lucky person! SOC GX-71 goes easily on 400 USD these days. How bout this Dairugger? Who knows? Perhaps Jeff Bezos tired of being rich or bored being greedy and all of sudden cut SOC GX-88 price in half.

You can try your luck again. Don't forget, the GX-71 you order from amazon is a reissue and not the original release. Also did Amazon ship out the items yet, because they sometime over sell their stock.

Also did Amazon ship out the items yet, because they sometime over sell their stock. Yes I knew it was a reissue and my local comic book store did not come through with my initial pre order. When I saw it on Amazon I had to jump on it. I did receive 1 of the Gx-71 already and it was in mint condition with the white tissue and bubble wrap still on it. The other one Is set to arrive Nov 4. As for the Gx-88, I’m not really in need or want it badly, but if I see it at retail price I would also jump on it.

I can confirm that amazon has shipped these out (at least some of them); because I got my order the other day (edit: the GX-71 that is, I just realized I’m in the gx-88 thread)

I just watched that last review..someone needs to lay off the Starbucks. I.had to stop watching the second time the flap pooped off them the blade went flying and the plane took off after it which I don't see as any fault of the toy or Bandai but a rather impatient reviewer. Slow down I know it's an soc but that doesn't make it a Barbie doll a

Rather slim I would say .... wherever you are it’s all mark up I was thinking canceling the amazon order I have (3rd one) and the price for this release it’s on $600 +! WTF! I mean really I am up for a profit but to almost double the price? Insane.... I will keep the preorder I have it’s 339 free shipping tax included in US. not a bad deal at all considering what’s dairugger is already going for .....

Still waiting for NY to issue my shipping notice. :/
Seems to be a theme with these guys lately with paid preorders.
BBTS also with a PO from me too -- paid as well. So, hopefully both places get their inventory soon.

I think the miracle actually looks pretty good next to the GX-88; did not realize there was a height difference. Got these images from instagram; hope the links work.
