I was checking my account status over at BCB and to my surprise.....the GREAT MAZINGER (GX-02R) & VENUS-A (GX-12) TWO-PACK and the MAZINGER Z (GX-01R) & APHRODAI A (GX-08) TWO-PACK are "ready to ship".
I know the Maz set is out already, but how about the G Maz set?

I am starting to believe it's a fluke on my account because my credit card has NOT been charged yet. I sent him an email yesterday though. 'Will let you guys know.

I was wondering about Grendizer, I heard it was cancelled for America, and no shop seems to have it on order.
As for the bouble pack, same thing. No one is having it in the US right now. I own then already, but show us some pic when you received them!

act,
do you mean only for the GX-02 +12? I ordered GX-01R +08 from bcb comics and I got mine few weeks back.
Zman,
Just be patient. For various reasons, bcb takes longer time to ship things for imported items...

I pre-ordered both Mazinger double packs (Z's and Great's) from them and my order has also been flaged as "ready to ship" this week.

Well, it's been "ready to ship" for two weeks, now. Shows you how patient (or lazy) I am. How about you, guys? Got any news from BCBC, Zman? I'll slip a word under their door this weekend.

Add a Revoltech and a week to yours and our orders are identical, Wilson. Except mine's status has changed to "ready to ship" two weeks ago. Why did they flag it as ready if it wasn't (and it looks like I'm not the only case of this kind), that's what I'm wondering.

Cuz these guys get it from Diamond (yuck!). Same reason for Voltes.

I got an answer. The one I didn't want to get:
So there you have it. They offered to cancel those two and only send me my Revoltech Getter 1. But I could have bought that one months ago at my local geek-store instead, for a bit less than it would cost me to get it alone from BCBC. And that's without considering that the customs haven't put their greedy paws on it yet.
I can't really blame them. Diamond has been keeping them in the dark for months, giving them bogus release dates more than once. I don't know what Diamond's version is. They'll probably blame Bandai, then Bandai will blame my mom. I think I'll send some mail to Diamond, just for fun... but I don't expect much from them.
On the bright side, neither of them is terribly difficult, nor expensive, to get. I don't care much for the special package either. I just want my Mazingers. Had I missed the boat because of them, then I would be mad at them. As it is, I just find that a tad irritating.
