The sites that have them up for pre-order list the release date as March. I would assume that they will be out by mid March but no one really knows anything more than March at the present...
I would expect to see ebay pre-orders starting around mid to late February...
Also, this technically could have been answered in one of the existing Enkidudu or Xan threads but neither of those threads discuss both figures, and the one where they are both discussed is the "Yamaguchi is leaving" thread where this question would probably get lost anyway, so a new thread seems like a smart move...
Of course, I'm not an RJ mod so I can't say if it really matters either way to them...

Well, like Phoenixx said, we don't have exact dates yet. I believe that the magazine to order Enkidudu from is the January issue, so March may be a good estimate for when he'll be shipped out and start hitting resellers, etc.
As for Xan, I think we might see him a little sooner, but it's really just a gut feeling. It's briefly discussed in the topic about him, but he's being released across a few sources, which means no processing / shipping lag and so fourth. Maybe by the end of the month? I've got my fingers crossed, anyway.

I don't have an exact date yet, but I'll keep you posted when I know more. Also, Figure King 130 (with the Enkidudu order form) was the 'January' issue to the best of my knowledge, but I believe it came out back in November '08. I should have been more clear, sorry about any confusion!

"Xan" is the official name for the Black (ninja'd up) Overman King Gainer.

Could anyone keep me posted on where too get one or two of theses, by PM Thank you!! Well, I don't think there are a lot of options at the moment. Dengekiya.com was accepting preorders (in Japan only) for Xan, but I think that period ended a while ago. Play Asia still has a Xan Preorder up for $50 ( www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-8x-49-en-15-xan-70-36au.html). I don't have any leads on Enkidudu at the moment. Otherwise, I'd say the best course of action is to wait until release and start hitting eBay and Yahoo! Japan Auctions.

hmm i wouldnt mind paying 50 so much as long as its garaunteed that i will be getting one. play asia is usually expensive anyway like image anime. I wouldnt doubt that IA would get thier hands on it as well.

wonder how much the finder fee this tokyo hunter will charge!
yes it is a limited super special edition so it is going to cost more and cost us mainlanders even more (that is if we can even get our hands on this sexy beast!)

I was lucky enough to pre-order mine through dengekiya.com via Tokyo Buyers, and it came to just over USD $40 before shipping (but including the domestic shipping), after a harsh exchange rate (hang in there economy! ). However, I don't think dengekia is taking any more orders, so anything now is probably going to be aftermarket price+potential commission...so $60-ish plus shipping sounds like a pretty solid estimate. It'll really depend on how many hit Y! Auctions and eBay though...demand and availability can do pretty wacky things to prices.

I wouldnt mind paying that much for xan and a little more. anyone have a target date for this?

"March" is all I've got from Tokyo Buyers, which I assume is all they got from Dengekiya. I'll be sure to post if I hear anything though. T minus six~eight weeks until I shoot a gallery
