Coming out next month in Japan, we now see images of the packaging for the Unite Warriors Superion (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/japanese-transformers-40/unite-warriors-superion-in-package-182814/), which has a flip-top box with artwork, similar to the format of the recent reissues.

Sheesh Takara, keep this up and I won't have room for all your boxes.

Even just stacking the boxes against the wall may not be good for me. At W440 x H290 mm each box, I think I will need to measure my room's wall and plan ahead:D

For those of you getting UW01 from Hong Kong you are getting coin with your purchase just like a MP. http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/japanese-transformers-40/unite-warriors-superion-collector-coin-182967/

I know right!!

I don't buy toys for the boxes but I struggle so hard to throw away the nice boxes. I keep so many flat packed boxes just for the box art.

In stock at HLJ now (http://www.hlj.com/product/tkt83168). So tempting, but I really hate blocky jets.

Oh? I suppose this means I should expect mine in the upcoming weeks.

Mine's paid for at HLJ, but I need to wait for TAV Drift to drop in my Private Warehouse before I ship.:( Dam I'm impatient.

Must be a big box. I paid for shipping with a few other items and it burnt a hole in my wallet.

I had the same rude shock with my postage from HLJ... but I've been waiting a long time to finally have some CW combiners so shipped.

I got mine shipped from HLJ together with MP-10 and UW Megatron (and a box of the D collection mini figs) for 7700 yen EMS. I thought that was a pretty good price.

HLJ has a cheaper shipping for 3860yen, I was waiting for Amiami but looks like all its orders are sold and no extras as of the moment. If Premium Collectables has no extra stock as well guess will have to go with HLJ asap

I got shipping notice from Anime-Export today, YEN 7700 I think, CW Megs, CW Superion, the two legends Insecticons and MP Exhaust. worked out pretty good I think. 3-5 working days, not expecting it before Friday... :( but quietly optimistic:D:cool:

I think AE doesnt put much weight when packing its items unlike Nippon Yasan which bulks up the packaging and increases shipping cost.

Anyway anyone got it from HLJ and knows when it is coming?
