Nice - do you have the full color pic of this in your display. I love the combination of the Toynomi 30th stand, with the SOC! Note to Bandai: Please give us a SOC Albegas, so those of us that love Voltron can complete the trilogy (in a modern way)!!! ![](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/swnflen5nfgaklx/IMG_20191123_223714%20small.jpg?dl=0)

He def got lucky. They gave me $5 store credit. Was "only" an easel but never ever seen box like that in my half a century life... But bros, more importantly please just consider deleting the above posts as i can def see some taking advantage and abusing the system.... Am i jealous? Oh hell yeah! Hahaha Edit: Looks like Amazon wanted it back, hahaha! but they will replace the whole thing - I guess that is still good. That will make you feel good. Ahh, I'm still waiting to get my hands on this!

No packing material from Amazon with 2 in the box. Just some surface scuffs on the slip covers. ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20191124/f99a16a3238884a958c7b6123a68741f.jpg) I canceled my Amazon order for that very reason. They do not pack well at all. The last few items I ordered had no packing materials. My SOC Titanus came in such poor condition I sent it back. My amazon exclusive emperor palpatine box was so smashed the pieces came out of the figure package and were floating around in the Amazon box. That’s when I canceled the Voltron order. Got one from supreme collector on Facebook. Came well packed. Don’t plan on buying Collectibles from Amazon any more.

bottom line
when i first preorder this i was kinda sure that i wont like it, but boy i was so wrong this figure is amazing and worth getting, every collector (who can) MUST GET IT, for me this is THE TOY OF THE YEAR
YES~ Toy of the Year!
or Robot Toy of the Year!
There might be some other amazing toy of 2019 that all of us don't know about (but don't care) because we are ROBOT-JAPAN!

Mine should be on the way. Turns out I didn't have backup cash source checked in paypal and it was a couple dollars shy. Entertainment Earth said it should ship in about 1 business day.

Sold out at Amazon, BBTS,and EE..... I have to believe Bandai is ACTIVELY working on SOC Albegas if they havent started already. Im sure Bandai will rerelease Dairugger when they release SOC Albegas along with Lion Voltron haha. Whew, Bandai got itself "a real soc franchise." An endless variations of Voltrons, not unlike SRC Mazinger perhaps. Not a bad thing for Voltron fans.
im telling you Action Toys Albegas will see the light waaaay before Bandai do it
but i guess if you are right we are about 3 years away from SOC Albegas
still i want Bismarck more honestly .... and Zanda Cross

Anyone here know if Galactic Toys is a good vendor? I never ordered from them before so I am wondering if I can get some feedback from people who have used them in the past.

Mine came the same way yesterday. Ed and the boys at ToyDojo do an amazing job in packaging their toys for collectors. They have become my goto source for high price - high quality items. My belief is Amazon should be a last resort - They are the mass market providers - like getting Legos at Tartget or Wal-mart. I don't expect them to respect the packaging, etc.

My Dairugger came from Amazon today. I'm sending it back. It wasn't destroyed, but it was loose in a larger shipper box, and it was pretty scuffed up by the time I got it. The shipper was crushed a bit, so the Voltron slip sleeve was damaged. Fingerprints, too :/ I go to great lengths to keep my boxes in the best shape possible, so to have it marred on arrival is unacceptable. I have another sample coming from eknight.

Exactly why I was not about to do Amazon for this guy. I didn't even do the $4 BBTS shipping because it is smart post, which for collectibles I have found it to not be very smart. I do have one coming from Gamestop, which I have never done before, so hopefully it comes in good shape or they can have it back.
