    Too much empty space in the HLJ box. Consequently, Optimus Prime box was crushed on the front face.

    Nano Block Optimus Prime box was resealed on one side.

    Got to give props to HLJ

    As part of my pre order service, I use HLJ as one of my main suppliers for Japanese items. I order 5-10 of each item, and then correct closer to release.

    I did this over the weekend for the Fembots, but checking today (early morning) I saw I still had 10 on order so I re-corrected thinking I had made a mistake or not saved or something.

    After work I checked again and was still showing 10 of each on order and this time I know I had saved/confirmed things.

    After a quick email to their trouble email address, I had a reply in 20 minutes with a manual correction and a note to say this was not normal behaviour and it would be looked into by the tech team.

    Well done HLJ

    I've only very recently seen QT-19 Convoy & 20 Megatron preorder listed. But its showing up as 'Stop Order'. Does this mean its already sold out or staging to commence the preorder?

    It means that they have taken all the preorders they are able to fill.
    Keep checking the listings if you're keen, they might order more from the supplier or someone might cancel their preorder.

    Generally if it's out of stock, and not on backorder, the site will list the item as "discontinued"

    Don't be to worried, they will open up the preorders again at least once or twice before release, and will also sometimes have some stock upon release. It seems they do this with a lot of items, it is very handy. Although it can be a problem if they open a preorder later and can't fill the order upon release ??? its unlikely, but it did happen with the Takara Legends fembots, they simply took to many orders.

    4 days since I shipped MP-23 and MP-24 and nothing
    Normally ship within a day. Maybe they are getting too popular

    Being patient allowed me to add a TAV Roadblock to my order.
