    My earlier pre-order actually just got updated as a November 27 delivery date. So no idea how the newer listing says the 25th.

    Oh yeah, duh. I was reading that as delivery date of the 25th not release date. Hahahahaha, my bad. Thanks for pointing that out.

    Government Employees have the best of both worlds. Bosses that hate them AND random people on the street as well.

    The best is when you have to get a loan just to pay bills since you have to work and not get paid.

    That 35 days fucked a great many people up. Paying back unemployment really messed with people, and the lump sum health care payment that's taken out of each check really hit people I work with hard.

    Straight bullshit.

    Preorders for Dairugger XV was sold out pretty much everywhere so I figured it wasn't meant to be...

    Now Amazon has been dangling that carrot in front of me with that live pre-order for days now lol. :p o_O

    Get it while you still can for $399.99 Amazon Prime while you still can. 3rd party sellers are already scalping.

    I was sorda going to wait until around Black Friday to see if the price would dip a little... But yeah, I'm locking in a pre-order right now, I can always cancel if something comes up from now and Thanksgiving week.

    I have a $100 Amazon gift card I was saving for whatevers, but I apply it towards Dairugger VX.

    $240 is not shabby at all. :) 

    ...And I'm done. Out. Cutoff. No more spending money on toys until 2020. :p

    Don't I know it. The way they've been eroding benefits the last several years, it's really not worth it unless you're an overpaid do-nothing boss.

    Same here. Should I pay Toy dojo now or wait for Amazon which says 25th of this month? Amazon is $24 cheaper the Toy Dojo but hasn't ordered from Amazon before and not sure if it is oversold. Still available on Amazon now so it is kind of strange to me as it is sold out everywhere

    Well in defense of Amazon, they already went through one sold out pre-order session. This new one came up recently and has been up for a while. Hopefully that means the scalpers already are committed and the people who wanted one can now get one at retail price.

    Ran across this at the store. I assume its NOS, and not something still being made.

    Should still be in production. It just released in September 2019 I believe. Isn't bad for being around $5
