    Other than BBTS which is sold out, and I waited too long, where would be a good place to get a Henke Smokescreen? Thanks. :)

    Sorry, nevah mind. One of those rare "panic" moments of weakness, and then brain started to function properly and noticed other site links on top of board page to explore. My bad. Move along. :)

    I think I did. TFSource had him on pre-order. First time I'm using that online store. Hope it's a good one. :)

    Wow, looks like you JUST missed the boat (not rubbing it in), but i literally placed my preorder at almost midnight 2 nights ago, so they still had stock in then. Good luck dude. I always pay the slight premium to go through BBTS since they ship well, and they resolve any issues i have ever had in a timely manner.

    BBTS and the other US retailers charge too much for the newer Henkei releases. Don't get me wrong, BBTS is still my #1 choice when it comes to expensive items because of their superb customer service.

    For Henkei Smokescreen, I'd recommend:

    etoysjapan.com - Home

    They have a few left in stock for about $26.xx after shipping. It's an even better deal if you get Henkei Red Alert as well. I've purchased from them several times now and can vouch for them. Great prices and communication. Willy is an awesome guy to deal with.

    Yeah, I noticed BBTS and TFSource raised their prices on deluxe Henkei. Don't know why....I'm getting mine from Fan2Fan, though.
