    TRU had to lock it numbers with Takaratomy in order to have their own exclusive. So TRU probably took the safest bet and ordered maybe lower quantities. It's no fun having stock in the warehouse that does not sell.

    Singapore TRU has stock that any customer can rock up and buy anytime. So what does that tell you about demand?

    On the NOTE, when I made the CALL to Morley TRU, NUMBERS are allocated by NSW and NOT controlled by WA. So here you go, is basically suck in.

    Interesting to know that Perth online delivery is not immediate like eastern states. I ordered yesterday and no delivery notification yet.

    Not entirely true, Singapore required YOU to be a TRU member in order to obtain one (first priority) Membership cost money over there.

    If you think it was that simple I would have asked my brother to rock in and grab one and totally ignore this hassle.

    Oh yeah, I'm sure its all done by the head office. And i acknowledge that ordering is not always easy - i used to own a comic shop, I know how hard it is to gauge demand and how annoying it is to be left with a bunch of high end merchandise.

    Same price with mp Soundwave. But remember it still beats buying from Ebay for the deal though. But saying that! it was giving priority to members only!
