    @Flapjacks - Sound familiar??

    Now it's the delayed DX 1d that everyone is crying for and just like the delayed HT Endgame Cap for those that ordered it and the umpteenth month wait to get it shipped to NA/SA shores while Europe and Asia has their release already. :lolol

    just a reminder , July 22 to Sunday, July 25 is a period of national holiday in Japan.. so there will be limited or no staffing from shops to process shipping.

    just got mine from lunapark. not that impressed that they just used a DHL shipping bag around the bandai shipper box. all the corners are banged up for both the brown box and inner packaging. luckily I don't care that much, but feels nice to have a minty box.

    WTF, atleast AMJ gives you the impression of a paper thin cardboard box to protect your items that will eventually get banged up.

    They are probably doing this to save on size and weight of the total package because Fedex and DHL is by Dim weight . and I think if they use a bag/pak it might be a bit cheaper because they can say they ship a bag/pak and not a box.

    I paid 30-33k yen + shipping + customs on fragile transforming plastic that's going 1/2 way across the world. inside is just plastic clamshells, not styrofoam. getting it shipped in a baggie makes me an uncomfortable customer.

    Damn. That's just wrong. Especially for something like this. I hope ours is boxed, but I'm now guessing it won't be. :mad:

    6100 Yen. I think I got ripped but beggars can't be choosers. My other order from Hobby-Genki was only 4500 Yen for DHL. Total was like $290+ vs $260 shipped.
