    Yeah. Saw the documentary. The audacity of that.

    Well. Found a physical Soundwave at Toyworld. I was hoping for a sale at one of the majors for my copy later in the year. At least it is cheaper than online.

    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...

    The longest I've had to wait for a shipment from Japan was 23 days (MP Wheeljack). That was stupidly infuriating. In that time I managed to buy a spare MP Wheeljack from another member (and sold off the one that I'd ordered from Amazon after it arrived). So yeah, if anyone in Sydney has a spare MP Optimus Primal they want to sell...
    I ever waited 30 days for ems, yes was not impressed

    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
