Has to be a scalper or just super collector :X 6 is too many, no idea why they did that. Only real dupes I've ever bought are DX macross stuff but thats a 3 mode transformer. well I guess Wing is technically a transformer... |

Wow! 6 per account and it's sold out.
Lots of disappointment on the Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore forums
Looks like the only active site left is p bandai Japan.
I'm sure there will be a 2nd or 3rd round pre order.
Aside, anyone notice how small or short this figure is going to be? It's only 17cm. That's shorter than the metal composite RX-78, which I think is the current shortest metal composite figure.

Well, the option is to order via White Rabbit Express. It works out to $296 pre-shipping. The shipping is probably another $30? I dunno...

That's $56 USD right off the bat more than the US Tamashii site's MSRP.
Yeah, I want it but not at that much of a markup when there's a chance more will be released later. I'll wait.

Uhh, from my experience/ knowledge with web exclusive stuff its typically less common to have restocks especially P-bandai stuff related to Gundam. Destiny I would say is a special case because Destiny itself was not a webexclusive (full package may have been???) basically a larger production run compared to what P-bandai does. Correct, I was referring to the full package which was a p-bandai exclusive (2106 release). Hoping that they will open some more but I can feel that they will due to the POs selling out fast! |

You should try fromjapan or zenmarket. Both are cheaper than whiterabbitexpres. I think fromjapan will only charge you a fee of 700 yen to order the item for you. Ill mostly try that |

yeah, mate has a proxy in the states, will keep 2 and will probably resell the other 4 - he offered one for me, so might have 2. We dont have much luck of P-bandai sites - I hope one day they'll have a P-bandai Ocenia  I don't know how they managed to put 6 - that was just overkill! Anime-export already had him at 275 USD + shipping, so I instantly jumped in and grabbed one. Nippon was at 28K and that got instantly sold out, they listed it a day before the official announcement. |

i think all my alerts was the reason my iphone crashed. (Crash close to 5pm) But i been refreshing the us-p bandai site for around 15 minutes and Mighty Bandai God magically toss me 2 gundam wings. I grabbed it and was able to check out. Got the confirmation and now the site shows out of stock again. Cant hardly believe what just happen. Maybe i need to do a ritual dance or something.
but i think its just their anti-cart jacking at work and someone was thinking and it either timed out or they changed their mind

I've be en refreshing p-bandai america all day, worried since I've been reading how it became sold out almost everywhere, but finally I get one. I got many of the gffmc and I really like them. This one seems glorious. I collect only UC gundams but I can make an exception here |

You deserve it for all the POs that you have been posting my man! |
