    Yep. You can pay off the total any time you want. In my case I always pay the total down to a flat number immediately. Then every month or so I’ll put another 5,000-10,000¥ on it until it’s paid for. It’s such a nice way to pay for toys instead of having to pony up the money all at one time. It’s actually the main reason I use AMJ because I’d rather order from other places like Robot Kingdom and get the free pins and extra bits that hasbro Asia supplies.

    Excellent.

    Oh, re: the MP Skids thread, I wasn’t trying to come off like a jerk in our exchange. You’re one of the cooler posters here and I appreciate you speaking out racism, even if I was making a bad joke.

    At the risk of stating an obvious point... you know how people call out faux parts? Well, the original 52 images mean you can totally tell there's another cockpit under there. If you actually look at it for more than a few seconds it's actually pretty unsightly.

    I wonder whether TT have formed that same conclusion and made it opaque so that it's not?

    We all make bad jokes my man. I’m good for a truly hilarious joke about once month. The other 100 are just dead in the water :D :D

    HC beat me to it, but yeah! On Amazon Japan's site click on "Account & Lists" on the upper right of the page under where your name will be when you're signed in. It'll take you to your account page where you'll see nine boxes and gift cards are to the right in the middle box. Click reload balance and then you can enter the amount you want to pay and once you finalize the transaction it will take about five minutes (or so the website says) for the amount to get applied to your account. Basically from there, clicke to "view details" on your Starscream order and between payment method and order summary it will say you have x amount in credit with the option to apply it to the order. Hope this helps and cheers!

    I normally use AJ gift cards to pay off MPs early but with Arcee it didn't work. And the really annoying part is that I had to load the gift card in order to figure that out. So I ended up having to get a refund from customer service for the gift card. Glad to hear it seems to be working with Starscream.

    Yeah, I was worried about that. I wasn't sure if I should do a test or something, but I just put the full amount on and it gave me the option to put it to Star Cream in the order

    I and a buddy of mine had the same problem with Arcee though this trick (in case it happens again) worked for me and not for him: Go to the bottom of the Amazon page to "Let us help you" column and click on "help". At bottom of page click on "Need More Help?" and from the promp click on "contact us". From here you'll be able to look up a specific order and there will be an option to recharge your card or resubmit payment or something like that. Just pick the same card you already have on file and when it recharges the gift card amount should automatically apply itself. Not helping you now, but definitely file away for future use just in case!

    I don't understand the grey, like should be cream colored. The grey is just so boring.

    I would like for all the cockpits to be painted like Skywarp’s personally, but at the same time I wonder if TT chose the color palettes to be complimentary of the individual figures as a whole. Maybe @chchchch could digi up something real quick if the canopies in bot mode only? Let us see what we are potentially missing out on, or potentially dodging and regretting.

    I think @RichP covered it! I also wanted Skywarp's finish for everyone but now that I see it I'm not so sure. I think I'd pick Thundercracker's now if they were to be uniform but not sure about that either.
