    At the very least, now you know where to find future releases at great pre-order prices.
    My unsolicited advice, sit this one out and hope for a re-release 6 months down the line, much like Megatron iirc.

    According to DHL CS, a hold is just their terminology for delay. They said they have a large backlog of parcels and yours's being on hold just means it didn't make it on the plane today. Your package should start moving again tomorrow.

    I wouldn't worry yet. It could very well change. I've had shipments go back and forth, bouncing around the delivery dates before.

    AJP order shipped yesterday. Original delivery date stated as Friday but DHL now says it’s out for delivery today. Gotta love the AJP/DHL efficiency. One day shipping from Japan to east coast US.

    It simply does not matter how many times AJP is brought up here for US buyers. There's always going to be someone that misses out on the PO window that lasts forever and we'll be back to the same discussion. Let people be.

    I get collectors that don't frequent this site and are simply unaware of things. But here at TFW? I just don't understand man.

    Sure some like and are loyal to their e-tailers, but when savings are this good, all of that goes out the window for me. The bottom line is what's left in my pocket.

    This is nowhere near $275 for me and at the end of the day, it's all that matters.

    I'm debating if I want to pop these rivets and see what's going on. Amazon hasn't put up the currently not available so they should at least get so more if worse comes to worse.

    Wouldnt knock anybody for waiting for another run. A lot of the Japanese e tailers are sold out and theres a good chance like Megatron he get a sooner reissue than normal

    I wish I still had GreenScream. Luckily I still have MP-06 Skywarp (Takara) and will never part with him. Just love the F-15E Strike Eagle - one of the most Badass fighter planes of all time!

    Ah, I didn't think so either, but I thought I saw a few posts up someone saying JP had more in stock. Ok, cool.

    They probably will get more, I think when it's nothing to sell you get the not available message in the window. They are just showing nothing, so there might be a chance.

    Nice.
    I'm still in the "waiting on AmiAmi to fulfill my pre-order" boat personally.
