    Oh, ok. I thought you bought it from pulse. Because I think mine was paid. But I have not received a shipping notice yet.

    I think what would have made me more excited is if the crystal had a robot mode unto itself. Then it'd almost be like a Rock Lord mech suit. That'd be bought on sight.

    Why you keep using pulse over Amazon? I already have the Slayer and Billy off Amazon.

    Because he’s in Canada, and Amazon.ca is unreliable. They never did get Trini in-stock, and the Ranger Slayer/Billy wave isn’t even on the site.

    Lack of confirmation from pulse is really getting to me.

    Just relax man. They're getting to them.

    Slayer is the only one I have a shipping notice for so far, but have been charged for 5 different figures. It's all good.

    That mecha really just looks like a Bandai of America creation, the prior two do seem a little 'lightweight' seeming but this looks very far removed from the DX quality of even the last 5 years. Hopefully this is not the end of what what has been decades of high quality engineering and materials. Overall I don't mind the design and I think it would appeal to kids but it really lacks that DX polish.

    Yeppers. It just feels like BoJ is finally throwing in the towel on their DX line. I just wish the price would at least reflect the quality. In no way is this worth 10,000y. I'd go 4,000y, max.

    Could it also be customs? Because I forgotten how long it actually takes.

    I just thought I was one of the first orders to be placed since the announcement at Toyfair.

    i even felt ryosoulger looked a bit cheap, i never bough them however so cannot say how they feel in hand. Even recent offerings like ninninger (which I thought weren't great looking) still had (at least in the shurikenjin i bought) the solidity we expect in DX lines. My buying days are over in anycase, its still fun to watch the reviews....

    That's because they are. Bandai downgraded Super Sentai to Level B last fall and upgraded Ultraman to Level A. Being in Level B means they cut the budget for the line by 50% and are only expecting like an 80% return on investment.

    OK, Now I get my Shipping notice from Pulse. However, I only got for Ranger Slayer. Billy may be later, don't know.

    If Pulse already has Ranger Slayer, I hope a brick and mortar release isn’t too far behind.
