NY posted it up for sale again today and I jumped on it. So in the end I got my double. My order from AE should get here any day. Can't wait to have a white Magnus since I used him as my leader of the Autobots when I was a kid.

I thought you went through agent which I did and they sent it on the way already.

He is missing an employee name tag part time Magnus.

I ordered from AE (on the way) and also tried to order from an agent but it fell through. So I was glad I got to pick it up from NY also. On that note NY keeps sourcing these one by one (I have been getting the notifications when it comes back in stock). They are starting to move the price up though, the one today was listed for 35,000� and is already sold.

Thats the one thing I don't like about ny they sell their first allocation for retail then jack the price up for the desperate people who missed out with other retailers.

NY price jacking continues, new one listed at 38,000�. I personally don't have a huge problem with it, it's just supply and demand. Glad I got in quick.

Can't recall but I pre-ordered from AE and it was 32,000� so NY was probably similar.

Speaking of which my AE one arrived today. Sadly although it was packed pretty well it also has the concave front and back though the back is far worse ( and also has a weird crease all the way down). Perhaps this is a thing with these? Oh and it is double taped.

Anyway all of the more reason to open it for display but I'm hoping my NY order arrives in better shape.

The problem I had with ny was I made payment and they cancelled my order, and relist the same item at higher price. Now thats a problem.

I gotten one through agent and is works out to be 29000jpy

Oh it�s just, just so wrong! I keep expecting some poor, underpaid Indian Uni student to pop out of the cab and start selling dried out hot dogs.

Now if it came with Hooters decals...

If i had money to burn, i would post with that trailer as my �free slushy day� cup. Some irony and tool behaviour involved.

This is obscenely racist and insensitive. Some of those exploited workers are Pakistani.

So my other one from NY arrived. The back of the box is again concave but not as bad as my other one (seems to be very common with this release).

The good news is the front is not concave (just has a little dent on one corner) and it is only single taped so I'll keep this one MISB and open the other one. When I open that one I may even be able to get the box flattened out.

Well I�ve just been told I won�t be getting mine due to supplier shortage so I guess I either hunt around or just don�t bother
