I just saw on the RJ boards that BBTS just cancelled and refunded Metal Structure NU Gundam, anyone here ordered that from BBTS? I PO'ed 2x for backup and if I'm luckywith the 2x my mate will grab it the other one.
I want to believe this since on their site they didnt have any of the promo images or the product's description. At this point im just gonna keep telling myself sweet nothings until bbts or other retailers have it up for solicitation pray
Really, was it all of them or like orders of more than 1? I assumed this meant like if i wanted to buy 2 they'd tell me no i can only buy one. Didnt actually think it meant the amount of units they choose to buy
Sorry! I should've been clear with my message. I didn't order from BBTS - just heard this news. I ordered 2x - 1 each from different local retailers in my country. Just wanted to confirm if this is the case with anyone who ordered from BBTS - looks like this is becoming so hard to get.
Not yet, I talked to Eddie at ToyDojo and they will be getting them, just waiting for BlueFin to give them the info
So can I ask, how the hell do you guys find the order pages for new stuff on HLJ? Because their search engine is like something designed by Webcrawler from 1997. I haven't ordered from them in forever because unless I see someone post a direct link on a forum, their pre-order stuff is impossible to find. Or am I just an idiot? (don't answer that)
I asked the same question here last night. If you refer back, it seems to come down to trial and error based on their url structure.
i saw that these 2 links were different: this link got me in but at that point it was too late METAL BUILD EVA Unit-02 and this link gave me the error of the page not loading last night METAL BUILD EVA Unit-02 all i know is "utm_source=" had something to do with it and sadly im not too familiar with html edit: copy the link into the url bar to see them or hover over the text
Alleged scalpers (from China) hogging the MB EVA-02 pre-order queue at Akihabara ? Japanese collectors are feeling pretty upset about the situation. There were similar allegations raised when MB EVA-01 went on pre-order.
literal scum of the earth Spoiler DISCLAIMER: ITS A JOKE IM SURE SHES HERE CAUSE HER SMELLY SON TOLD HER TO HOLD HIS PLACE IN LINE but in all seriousness damn man that sucks and i thought we had it worse just ordering from overseas sellers, we're probably the lucky ones, but at the same time it's all alleged so hey who knows
I know I'm gonna have to go for an overpriced scalper if I dont get a preorder for Eva 02. 02 is my favorite and I'm not missing this
Ah i think you'll be alright, although my main fear is orders getting canceled due to lack of stock. For me it wouldnt be the first time something getting canceled and it probably wont be the last. Granted it was mainly overseas preorders not US but at the same time, theres a first time for everything.
Wow! Is this the shoe game now? New Retro Jordan coming out? damn.. Anyway, in regards to MEtal Structure quote from a fellow member on RJ boards: "My Gundam pimp told me bluefin only got 200 pieces. They sold some to BBTS and also USA Gundam Store. Not sure if any other retailers got it. I’d be weary of any small North American dealers who are selling it. Note: my G-pimp wasn’t able to get any"
Well good if Japanese people start complaining maybe bandai will do something about it like um oh who am I kidding as long as they sell out their stock bandai doesn't give a shit. Q_Q
The last time fans in Japan complained about the difficulty of preordering MB EVA01, the designer of either Evangelion or the toy designer himself complained to Bandai and they responded with the announcement of a rerelease. Maybe the same thing will happen with MB EVA02.
It's times like these I just hug my soul spec EVAs that much more. No one seems to want do updated TV version EVAS and it's only the rebuilds or redesigns.
