Since this looks tobe a general release, I'm going to wait on US Etailers to see what they got for me. But im def there.
Im hopeful Bandai had negotiated enough license to do SRC Voltron. We will def gobble that up wont we?

if this mystery is an intended gimmick by Bandai.. then its working hehe.. i hope GX-70.. if not as huge name as Voltron.. is significant. GX-70 Dairugger XV?.. GX-70 Albegas? GX-70 will be the Blazing Sword accessory for SOC-Voltron, and it will prolly cost as much as GX-71 itself... : Images of Big-O expansion set comes to mind..

Holy crap! Preorders are going up soon?!! I have a feeling it's going to be a street fight trying to get one like the Dx Macross valks. Naw, Golion was pretty much a dud in Japan so I doubt they'll be a mad dash for them. Not to mention he'll be up on US Etailers as well. Well he sold out pretty quickly on most Japanese retailer sites. Not to mention that this was a surprise pre order so I'm assuming if folks knew about it, it would have sold out a lot faster. I understand that Golion didn't do so well in Japan, but to the rest of the world Golion/Voltron is a cultural icon.

Either scalpers were very active last nite, or Bandai implemented a distribution quota-limit of 10 only for each of the japan online-shops...

I guess I am going to have to wait to get mine. Oh well, I was thinking of saving $300 for either a Legacy Titanus or a 2nd purchase of SoC Gaogaigar to display with.

You have to pre-pay with Anime Export, correct?

I'll just wait for BBTS unless Ami-Ami reopens their pre-O (which they have done in the past).

Not trusting AE on this. I'll wait out a bit and get one from other re-open preorders or from US retailers. But they sure closed quick!

Goodman....AE should be the dead last resort. I've bought a couple of Fewture Ex Gokins from them in the past. Generally, no issues. While I'm not too happy about paying upfront, whatever...pay now, pay later, no difference really. Anyways...just watch me shoot myself when I see it on Amazon.ca for a nice price since I can't back out of my PO.

Ordered $190 mb strike freedom from them before and I was so happy. Later the order was cancelled, while the price of mb sf was already high.

I believe something similar happened to me with a Bandai gokin toy too...maybe it was the Strike Gundam!
