Is there any indication on the package as to when it was shipped? What method did TF use to ship it? TF told me my order was shipped last Friday and I'm to expect it this Wednesday, but he didn't provide me a tracking number despite me asking him directly (via e-mail) about it. I am in San Francisco,CA. The box shows USPS Parcel Select NPS. The postage shows 10-25-2013 (Friday) which I assume is the shipping date. And there is a tracking number on the shipping label. I actually sent a cancellation request on Toyfreakz website last Friday morning. I called and email Dave on his three email addresses that I have last Friday morning. I got a call at 1:35 pm that afternoon on my cell but did not pick up because I was at work. I listened to the message and it was from Dave. He said he will definitely refund me for the order I cancelled three weeks ago and that my other pending order will ship Friday or Monday. He also said he will be sending me the tracking number (which I did not received). He also mentioned that he might close his business after this bad experience with MP. I felt sorry for the guy and I called back the number on my cell and got the voicemail box and left a message saying I am keeping the order... He got screwed big time by MP. We got screwed by MP as well (no diecast sword which was the main reason I pre-ordered and pre-paid more than a year ago).... Read more: robotjapan.proboards.com/thread/19216/miracle-productions-diecast-vehicle-voltron?page=347&scrollTo=311955#ixzz2j8l4DTpeI still can't believe that Luxurymall can sell this toys for $199 that includes shipping from Hong Kong. With ebay and paypal fees and shipping cost, he probably will net $130... Is it possible that cost to this seller is $100 and he makes $30 profit? I wonder... Sorry, I wanted to mention that the toy is packed really well on a sturdy box with Fragile...Handle with Care stickers. I got to hand it to Toyfreakz on the way they pack they shipments. I've ordered before the Max Gokin Big O from them and it was also packed very well I even got a surprise figure of the guy from the same show...

I literally just got my package from Toyfreakz... No never received a tracking number... but I am glad it showed up. I not that excited anymore as my package from Luxurymall showed up yesterday and I got to put the the vehicles to form Voltron last night. My first impression after opening the package is disappointment... The box art color is not sharp and the box is not as sturdy. I feel like I am looking at a knockoff toy... The color on the vehicles too were subdued... I've examined the individual vehicles and the paint apps vary. Some better than the others. The cross is on the head is little bit off and one of these things that covers the face was too tight. It was after I put the toys together that my disappointment went away. My specimen is pretty stable standing up. Although I've posed it with my Toynami Voltron with this guy's left had kinda slightly pressing on the shoulder of the Toynami Voltron. It is not perfect but it's a great addition to my collection.

I had one of my 2 pre-orders with Toyfreakz cancelled on Oct. 2nd thinking that I might just get one from another source. I got an immediate (automatic) email confirmation of the order cancellation from toyfreakz. I sent a separate email a few minutes after to make ask toyfreakz to re-confirm the cancellation of the order. I never got a response back. Two weeks later passed and still no email reply and no refund on my debit card. I did more research on my end and it turned out the debit card I used had expired and now I have a new debit card with a new card number. I sent an email again to toyfreakz to find out how I can be refunded under this situation. No reply to this email. I called the number on their website and left a message and no return call... I saw another email address for Dave: davido@toyfreakz.com on this thread and forwarded the same email I sent the day before. No reply either. I am very frustrated about this.
How else do I get my message across to Dave? Is it possible to just contact my bank (Chase)and dispute this charge more than a year ago?

Yes, but not recommended from my experience. I did that and after taking it off and putting back on the red piece that holds the Gaiking head broke. Must have been the weight and/or that the plastic piece was brittle already because of it's age.

This is how it would look like if GX-27 is used with ET Daiku: I just stuck the ET Gaiking horn on GX-27 to make the horns bigger. Gt3ian, I would gladly pay for one of your custom adapter piece once it's done. Thanks.

Just checked his items for sale and he has now 2 auctions in there for the Mattel Black Lion. So definitely he is not out of stock. Just got greedy. I will definitely report this seller to Ebay and leave a negative feedback.

Just as I suspected... the seller who refunded me my payment for a $99 BIN auction has one relisted and is going for $180+ now and 17 hours more to go.
Oh well. I will take Mr. Xiombarg's advise. I will wait to see if I can get one when the market has settled down.

So I bough my black lion this morning on ebay after these were sold out on Matty's website. I was lucky I paid $99 + shipping. Just checked my email and the seller refunded my payment saying he posted too much on ebay and not have enough stock. I say he got greedy because now just about 5 hours after the prices have gone up to about $180+. I don't think I want to spend that much for this that should have been $65 toy. I will be selling the rest of the lions and picking other toys.

Ok. So I wanted to see if I can get another black lion on ebay. Wow! It's now going for $150 and over.

Wow. Black lion is sold out in 15 minutes after opening online checkout at 9 am PST. I opened 3 browsers at exactly 9, got in on one about 15 minutes later and tried to buy 2 and boom! Sold out already. I went right away to ebay and purchased one BIN at $99 + $12 and some change for shipping. It sucks but I need to put my Voltron together!
I suspect they didn't have that many left to sell online.
Can you guys imagine a profit of about $30 just like that. I wonder how much more this black lion will be now that you have to buy it aftermarket. I'm sure people will pay a hefty price to acquire it just like the red lion.

My shipping address is in San Francisco, CA. I though I'd be getting the package today. So maybe two more days...

I bought I couple of these also around 1997 but don't have them anymore. One was taken off the box and displayed for awhile and I gave away as a gift and the other I believe I sold on ebay years later. It was definitely make by Trendmasters. It came out the same time as the diecast version by Trendmasters that was similar to vintage Golion. Here's a review by Chachipower:

A shout out to Nonorobot from Spain for an excellent transaction. I love the toys and the boxes of these ES Gokin GoShogun, Jeeg and Baikanfu.
Thank you!

I think BBTS charges for shipping which is minimal. I read the description and there is no mention of the diecast/metal sword. They don't charge too until the toy is ready to ship out.

@ reluttr: I received a payment receipt from Paypal and there is an order number stated in it. The shipping address shown is my billing address. I don't remember during the payment process using paypal it gave me an option to change it. I sent an email to info@toyfreakz.com to amend the shipping address. Oh and I check price again on my iPad for this item and it shows the correct amount again. Weird...

Ok. Just following up on my last post...On my PC it shows $259.99. On my iPad it shows $329.91. I placed the order at toyfreakz.com from my iPad. It's got to be a glitch then as it says on paypal.com $259.99 when I sent the payment.
