Dude, if I can order one from toydojo, it would be best. Cause there’s no sale tax’s. So it’ll be $340 flat with shipping. My cousin is from Houston and ordered it from ToyDojo, ended up 369 USD incl tax it says. Toydojo’s based in Austin, TX so you will get taxed if you’re in TX. I’m in Houston as well and as much as I like them, I try not to buy from them to avoid the tax.

Anyone bought from eknight before? Can someone share their PO experience please? I'm thinking of buying my second GX-88 from them. They’ve been great for me. I PO most of my SHF figures from them and bought GX-71 from them when it was originally released. Never had any issues and they’ve been very responsive when I had questions.

I wish that’s what happened to mine. I clicked on the place order button and then it told me it was already out of stock. It was really frustrating. 😔 "Whoops, our bad." is all I saw last night Lucky you. Yea I kept seeing that too. I don’t think the product page was set up properly. What I ended up doing was adding it to my cart from the search result page and I was able to go through the checkout process from there. Still didn’t help though.

I got to the place order button page at HLJ last night (each page was so slow it was an agony), clicked on the place order button, then timed out. I thought I would have to start stalking various sites to get one or pay after market, but then this morning got a confirmation email from HLJ. Guess it did go through afterall. I wish that’s what happened to mine. I clicked on the place order button and then it told me it was already out of stock. It was really frustrating. 😔

I’m gonna tell you guys now... this thing is crap. Don’t buy it. Don’t wake up at whoknowswhat AM to attempt to buy this thing. Let me order one and bear the brunt of this ugly monstrosity. No one else has to suffer.
Seriously, I don’t know why you’d ever doubt Bandai could deliver. This is thing looks amazing. I hope everyone who wants one will be able to get it.

Man, these things look like a major design ripoff of Bandai's versions, no?
i see that they are anime accurate just like Bandai Versions
lets wait and see the transformation of Daimos it will tell us the truth
I got mine from Hobby Search Voltes V & Daimos. Im still contemplating if I should get Combatller V.
well it will get delayed like other AT stuff so i guess you have at least 5 months to think about it bro lol
Yea I’m not in a hurry to pick these up since they’ll probably be delayed. I’m still waiting for their SD versions to be released and those were supposed to come out last March! Also need to save every cent I got for Dairugger 😆

That’s good if they’re not all coming June 3rd. I really want to get that VF and blastoise reissue too and I don’t think I’ll be able to get all 3 of them. Dairugger’s at the top of my list.

Wow, how did we get from slamming the non-coloured initial pics to loving it now? Apart from the pose, it's the same right? It's the fact that we saw a unfinished prototype with awkward posing compared to a fully painted prototype with decent poses. BTW anybody notice the hands in the above picture. Yea I’m glad he’s getting alternate hands but it kinda looks off. Maybe it should get wider closer to the wrist to be in line with the arm width?

The dairugger weapons rack is 100% not even close to the same thing as GX-71. Im glad they are the same color, they will match on the shelf. but they are absolutely not even remotely the same. its not even tweaked. its completely a new design. we did both agree they did use the same color hue.. so the intent is there. I think the intent was to show they’re related since they’re both Voltrons (outside of Japan). Making it the same color was on purpose. Not out of lack of love for the character or some other. Getting the colors to match was probably even more of a hassle than just putting a different color on it.

I’m going to fire off a few questions re: AmiAmi in quick succession, so here goes: 1.) How much advance notice do they give prior to opening a pre-order of this significance? 2.) On what social media platform (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) do they formally announce said pre-order? 3.) Do they have a set time of day when pre-orders typically go live? Thanks. I would follow Tamashii’s Japanese twitter account. twitter.com/t_featuresThey’ll announce preorder dates a couple of days in advance (although they’ve announced stuff before a mere hours before they open pretty much screwing everyone who didn’t see it). Preorders for as long as I’ve been following them have always started 4pm Japan Standard Time. Good luck!

I remember people saying GX-71 looked fat and short. I for one look forward to more people not liking this to make it easier for me to preorder 😆

That sucks if it is. Other than dairugger, this was the only other SOC line I was looking forward to. Until they reveal bio robo 😆

Add me to the list of people who want a reissue. We’re currently moving stuff around in the house and had to put my SoCs back in their boxes. When I removed the tranzer cab, one of the 2 pieces of the peg broke! I was able to glue it back on but it looks like maybe the plastic’s starting to get brittle and the way they made that peg (two thin pieces of plastic like a small ball peg that’s been cut in half with a gap in the middle) just looks too fragile. They should just make it a ball peg next time.
