Mpchi, thanks for your thoughts.
I checked HLJ and this toy is currently on sale for USD $107 with USD $38 for EMS shipping to the US. I know they pack toys really well... Maybe I will get this from them instead. Costs the same pretty much compared to Amazon since they charges sales tax.

So I got my Trider today from Amazon. I paid $139 or so plus tax for it. I opened the box and the toy box is dinged on 4 corners and some minor scratches. The box has never been opened. Should I return it to Amazon and get a replacement? I wonder if the reason is they are cheap is because the art box is not perfect. Oh and the price has gone down to $134.50 today. Chachi, did you get yours already? How is the condition of the toy box?

I have sent an email to Txxy last Friday about the issue I have with my 4 lions and to date I have not received any response. I paid via paypal on 11/10 and today is 12/16 already. According to paypal If I need to dispute, I have to do it within 45 days. Today is the 36th day already since my payment. I will send another email today. I will give Txxy 2 days to respond and then I will file a dispute already on paypal.
I am not taking a risk of not being able to do anything again (from my experience with my Vehicle Voltron order that I never received from that guy in Oregon).
Will anyone who has not gotten any response/resolution directly go the route I am taking? I am curious.

S-Gokin: I am sure this will be resolved. Thanks. Baron: I don't think I caused it nor was mishandled during the shipping. I just sent an email to Tony.

I love thus toy! But I have issues on 4 lions except for the black one. On the red lion, one of the feet on the back is facing backward. On the green lion, one of the feet on the back is stuck and will not rotate and missing the cap on the joint. On both yellow and blue lions, the tails are too loose that they droop when posed straight out and also the joints on the front legs are loose that the heads fall forward if the front legs are not posed at about 90 degrees from the ground. I will have to contact the maker to see what they can do about this.
But despite the above, I love playing with it and the figure is solid as a combined robot.

8 inches I believe. It's smaller than SOC Daimos or SOC Voltes V by 2 inches or so.
I was just playing with it last night after I opened the box for the first time. I got the Exclusive version from Anime Export at a really cheap price (less than $200 for the figure with $50 EMS shipping). Luckily no major issue! Just the paint missing on one of the yellow horns about the size of a dot, a small paint overun on the lip, and the known issue with the paint overun on the spikes on the arms. I am not messing with the spazer! I am just displaying it as is.

Hi, Lejam. Would you be able to create an avatar for me of the new EX Black Shin Getter with the cape from fewture/artstorm? This is the one that is coming out in the next few months. I really like the cape on this one! Thanks.

Still waiting for my refund from Toyfreaks. Anyone else in the same boat as I am....

you would think the refunds would be the easiest to resolve. how difficult is it to cross reference an order and refund payment if the order hasn't been fulfilled. You can't give back money you don't have anymore. That's the problem. At this point, I would rather have Dave/TF send me the toy even if it has been cancelled. I pre-paid for the order almost two years ago. I might as well get something (toy) than nothing (toy or $). I am hoping Nick can get my message across to Dave/TF and get him to process the refund. Thank you Nick. Any help from you is greatly appreciated.

I am glad others are getting their VV. Now I hope those like me who are waiting for refund on cancelled orders also get the $ back.

I hope I get my refund for the VV order I cancelled. Sigh...
Anyone else here in the same boat as me?

I am one of those unfortunate customers. I am still waiting for my refund. I cancelled one of my two orders on Oct. 2nd. I received a voicemail on Oct. 25th regarding my other order that is going to ship (which I have already received) and a confirmation that the refund will be sent "as soon as possible". It's almost two months now after several calls and emails asking for the status of the refund. No response, no refund. I'm almost tempted to just ask for the toys to be shipped. At least I get something than nothing. I will try to work this out with my bank already. Good luck to me.

I am still waiting for my refund for one of two orders I placed with TF. I got the toy on the one order weeks ago but I am still yet to receive my refund for the cancelled order on the first week of October. I got a voicemail message from Dave 3 weeks ago saying he will send me the refund "soon". I have sent Dave several emails and left voice mail messages following up on the refund an nothing... The refund was for the toy I purchased on a debit card that has long been replaced. Dave said he will send the refund via my paypal account. But like I said nothing has happened so far. I will be calling again today.
