The Waiting Game Thread

Yeah. Saw the documentary. The audacity of that.

In Kenner's defence, before Star Wars came out nobody knew that it would be so successful - not even George Lucas. Kenner had clearly underestimated demand for the toys. Also, the action figure collecting culture (as we know it today) was arguably born from Star Wars.

I think HLJ have a 31/12 release date on LG Soundwave, and they'd probably get him before any of the Hasbro Asia resellers ... so probably late Jan at the earliest for PC...

Day 26 of waiting for Amazon-purchased MP Primal.

How does Amazon Japan pack the items? I'm considering ordering another copy of MP Grapple and they have a good price on it with cheap shipping. I ask this because I haven't been very impressed with how Amazon US packs shipments previously.

Edit: I see reillyd said the packaging was poor on his UW-Computron order in the Amazon Japan new items thread so I guess Amazon is the same everywhere.

How much is shipping with Amazon jp?

As if just the standard jp ems rate why not PO from amami for similar item price of 10,520 JPY http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/det...=FIGURE-022614

since we know amiami / hlj style shipping boxes have been pretty good

Thanks for that. Amazon's price was 11,600¥ (including shipping of only 1,800¥). Will enquire on amiami's shipping since they now have the Inferno box dimensions to go off. I've never used them, only used NY of the Japanese sellers.

amiami shipping works out similar to HLJ http://www.amiami.com/top/page/t/faq2.html#1

main diffs is you don't have the warehouse system and stuff to tend to sell out faster amiami
