For those who purchased from Amazon JP and have had your card charged, have you received your tracking number yet? Didn’t get any tracking yet although it’s been in “shipping now” status since last night.

My Amazon JP order is being prepared for shipping. If Amazon and HLJ can ship DHL without issues then Amiami can. Oh yeah! Amazon JP just charged my card too and should be getting the tracking number shortly! Me too! Looks like it went up about $40 with the taxes.

I ordered from Amiami. I know it’s shipping at the end of the month. Can anyone tell me what the shipping might be? It says to be determined. I’d like to put the money aside. Thanks I ordered from Amazon Japan and the shipping is around $83 so I would assume something similar. $100 might be a good amount to put aside.

We all better save up another $600 because it is inevitable we will eventually get a Respect for Volt in Box REPAINT of this DX Voltes V at some point. wish Bandai re issue the classic DX mold. Man I would love a reissued DX. The engineering may be outdated but it’s still a thing to behold. And reissuing/recreating retro stuff is an “in” thing to do these days right?

The robot gods at Bandai have answered my prayers! I’ll be getting 3 to help artificially inflate demand and maybe they’ll do an SoC 😂 Great Five next, please!

I was just checking my amazon jp preorders and noticed my DX Voltes order dropped down to about $568 including shipping. Pretty sweet.

Looks like the listing at eknightmedia disappeared. I wonder if that means their PO sold out. At $599 with no tax and free shipping, they’re pretty much the lowest right now. Only downside (like with all US retailers) is you’ll have to wait a month after release.

So pardon my ignorance this release is pretty much same height as previous ones? Bigger. GX-31 was 9+ inches. This one’s 14+ according to bandai.

Don't look like it has any discount though. Amiami was selling for 10000yen less. So might be better to wait for US or local POs. Yea I’m waiting for US preorders to open too but placed an order with amazon jp just in case. Their price actually drops to 59000 when you check out + 8666 shipping. So about $630 total. If the US price comes below $600, I’ll switch.

I love the Tranzer mode! Lol That transformation scene is my favorite part of the show and I probably shot more pics of gx-43 in Tranzer than in robot mode.
so you are telling me you want the Tranzer more than Daimos ?
its your opinion no problem but its like saying hey i love the pilder more than Mazinger lol
dont get me wrong i like the Tranzer too, but i like Daimos more
[/quote] I was just jokingly responding to what you said about no one caring for the Tranzer mode. I care for the Tranzer! 😆 It doesn’t have to be an either you want a good Tranzer or a good Daimos. Tranzer’s essentially just a long box with a cab so that’s not really hard to mess up, it’s how the robot fits inside that’s the issue and Action Toys have shown you can have a different approach that doesn’t compromise on some of Daimos’ articulation points and still look good. As an aside, I would actually like a Tranzer that doesn’t transform but instead opens up at the top and inside you can recreate the sequence when tryper goes inside and Richard(sorry I don’t remember his Japanese name) flies out of it and into the cab. 😀
