Insane price... And think about shipping price (with insurancy) and CUSTOM FEE ! I know I'm too late with that reply, but Bambaland (ThreeA) can accommodate people like you would like to... eh... bend the truth about an order's value. Though if you do that you won't be able to do an insurance reclamation for its full value if it's lost or damaged, obviously. Better pray (to God, Jehovah, Allah, Zeus, Vishnu, the Spiral Energy, Pillsbury Doughboy, whatever) for its safety if you try to fraud the customs underdeclare its value to save on taxes. Toy-Wave also does this.

It's still on pre-order at Toy-Wave for $422 (plus shipping). $422 plus shipping is the reason I didn't per-order this monster in the first place ... but thanks for the reminder! Yeah, it's a pricy toddler, but I'd be surprised to see this one end up in the clearance bin. What wouldn't be surprising is the announcement of a smaller-scale diecast mass-produced version by some other manufacturer. Kotobukiya is shipping its model kit in December and often when they show interest in a long-ignored design, it's like a wake-up call for gokin or pre-assembled figures makers.

I don't think this will be in the clearance bin as it is a limited release right? I could afford one and almost purchase one from sideshow collectible but the sheer size of the thing is what's stopping me. No where to keep it and no where to display it. If I had a dedicated room I would definitely get one of these, buy a custom acrylic display cube and set it in the center of the room. Since I have no such house/room it is a no go on this figure.

For anyone who cares, the Bambaland version hasn't shipped yet. The only confirmation we got from the production staff at ThreeA is that all retail and Bambaland orders should be shipped by the Chinese new year (February 10). Some retailers already go theirs and are shipping them to their customers. Bambaland customers, however, aren't so lucky.

It's nice to be kept in the loop with my money already out of pocket

The tracking on mine hasn't been updated for the last two days. Still showing as having been transfered to the airline. Hopefuly, it's at least in flight on its way here and not still stuck at the airport.

OK... it's big alright...
I knew it was big. I knew how big it was. But... Damn it's big.
(Quick shot with Figma Samus Aran, for scale.)

Since the Brave Series section is now a "figures that doesn't fit anywhere else" section, maybe this thread should be moved there. With Metal Gear Ray coming up next, it's not dead yet.
So if a mod reads this and think it should be moved to "Brave Series, Saint Seiya, Figma, 1/6 Hot Toys, Machine Robo, Action figures", please do it.
