With our dollar decreasing in value everyday I figured it was time to bite the bullet and buy Omega Supreme, but to my horror, I discovered that RK are out of stock. :( Does anybody know where else I could get one for a similar price to theirs?

I was afraid someone would say that. :( I can still hope they'll get a restock, but it probably won't be for a while.

Email them and ask them straight, usually they can restock quite fast. They provide very good personal :p customer service and reply within a day. Somehow they can always manage to restock. As long as it's a new line, I don't they will have problems. I panicked when Henkei Prime went out of stock as well and I emailed them to ask, they restocked within 24 hours.

Yeah, if you want to pay $100 for it + large shipping cost.
Otherwise http://cgi.ebay.com/Takara-G1-Transformers-Omega-Supreme-Encore-09_W0QQitemZ140255769540QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item14 0255769540&_trkparms=72%3A570%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14.l1318
Must be other places too...

I noticed that too, as I was trying to figure out the best way to order stuff is a few separate lots over the next few pay packets and get the best shipping deals.

Really wish now I had've bit the bullet and clicked confirm on that US$400 + shipping order I made when the AU$ was up near the 96c mark a few weeks back! :(

Alrighty, I'll try emailing them first, seems like my best bet. *Crosses fingers*

I wouldn't worry in any case even if they do run out.since this is a new release, you'll likely find that it'll have another production run very soon or at least a restock is in order. It's a very typical Japanese thing.

I found this at another online toy store:

Not too sure where they are located, but the price seems alright:

Seems it may have been a blessing in disguise, as the AU$ has dropped down to about US$0.88, 4 cents in as many days...:eek:

Never fear, I received an email from RK today and they are already accepting pre-orders for their next shipment. I feel happy once more. :) Now I just have to hope the dollar doesn't reach something ridiculous like 60 US cents.

I emailed RK about encore Optimus which was out of stock, this morning. I get home tonight and get an email back saying they have been restocked. Im spewing because i just got encore omega and i was going to get encore Prime at the same time to save on shipping. Ive decided to skip on Prime now until i order another big lot. The old Aussie dollar is dropping like an anchor too which doesnt help.

I wish id emailed them earlier now. Oh well i bought a G1 Ultra Magnus on ebay which makes the pain go away a bit. Lol

The early bird catches the worm. I usually pre-order stuff like this if I want it.
