    Freedom 2.0 for me is going to be one of those figures where if it's available I'll pick it up, otherwise I'll just let the scalpers have it.

    I agree with this. If I can get it easily then I will but will be fine with just my strike freedom

    If one already had Strike Freedom Gundam & 1.0 Freedom Gundam, both of these are good enough I guess unless one is a completist, then 2.0 Concept is a must for Metal Build fan.

    I'm in that boat, sort of.
    I have both the Freedom 1.0 and the Strike Freedom, so I almost feel like if I'd be ok if I didn't get the Freedom 2.0...
    But then I'm reminded of my username here (and on other forums), so... <shrug>

    I have the Freedom 1.0, Strike and Strike Freedom and Freedom Concept 2 is still a must for me. Mostly because Bandai also planned a Justice and the 1.0 would definitely look weird next to it

    Haha, if that is the case, you may need to get the Concept 2.0 Freedom ;)

    No. They may come through, they may not. When they didn’t come through for me one time, they didn’t respond to calls, emails or PayPal disputes. As long as you use a credit card through PayPal, you can guarantee getting your money back if it comes down to it but why bother?

    I ordered once through and it came through. Glad to know though @Slave IV that they aren't dependable.

    Yeah, I would imagine they deliver more than they don’t. It’s just that when they didn’t deliver for me, they wouldn’t respond to any inquiry about it so I don’t deal with them anymore.

    Well, made the attempt, but it hit "Order Stop" as I was part way through checkout. This shit is ridiculous.
