Not available again. I saw it in the japanese mail website, it can be sent by Small packet (I was surprised too, and confirmed with Nippon's online chat before buying, lol) So excited to have it!! Yeah, they just put it back up with a 1,000 yen mark up! And in my 10+ years of collecting I've never had a parcel of those dimensions sent small packet: Length + width + thickness = 90 cm (permissible deviation: 2 mm) provided the maximum length is 60 cm (permissible deviation: 2 mm) www.post.japanpost.jp/int/service/small_packing_en.htmlMaybe if they can find a box where the longest side is under 60cm, but the total still going to come out at at least 120 cm. I expect it will come Parcel. I'll let y'all know when I receive mine!

Just received this e-mail from Nippon: " Hello Thank you for your purchase We are contacting you regarding this order Unfortunately this order is bigger then expected therefore we will have to ask you for additional shipping An invoice will be sent out to you via paypal We apologize for the inconvenience Kind Regards " The difference they're charging me now is 4.060 yen; like 1/2 of what I already payied. They should let us know before pre-oredering... I feel disappointed. Not worth it, for me. Does anybody here canceled something with them?

Mine is also still in preparation, so expecting all their customers will receive this mail. Kind sucks, but at the same time, that's going to be the same importing from any retailer in Japan. Shipping will be over 5,000 yen for EMS. Cancelling is to pretty much concede that you're never going to get it. For me, that's not an option Given the circumstances, you make be able to get a refund from NY for what you've paid already!

What pisses me off is that I sent them an E-mail before buying, and they answered saying it das OK.. Come on, the box size was in the internet, there was no way to make a mistake. I'll see what I can do. It was an OK price (Brazil terms), given that I could pay 100% taxes on the shipping+product's price. At this time it's worth to buy from importers, here. :/ Edit: Found a way to keep the Time machine! I asked Nippon to change the shipping method, from SAL to Ferry. I'll have to pay only 560 YEN extra, so that's ok for me. I'll just have to wait a little longer.

I would have preferred the Mecha-Frieza they showed off last year... I think that might get a release sometime soon since the Trunks figures are out for grabs, it would fit in perfectly with the FRS time machine. Things would get more cool if they decide to release a King Cold too.

The figure rise standard time machine with comparisons including frs Trunks and shf Trunks and other figuarts and non figuarts figures.
Such an amazing release.

So yep. Bought Goku and Gohan and painted them in the Goku Zamus Rose color pallet. Didnt do color scheme because a random gray shirt woulda looked lame imo. The goku gave me some issues and his painted started scratching up really bad. His leg peg even broke. Still looks decent enough with a stand holding his leg up. Cant wait to get the Broly!

Oh, I'd love a King Cold, and since they release these kits in pairs, he'd be the most logical choice to release alongside Mecha-Frieza. Sadly, I doubt it will happen, since King Cold hardly ever gets merch

This site has some pretty good pictures of Trunks and Vegeta out-of-box for anyone interested blog.kenbill.com/?eid=1135blog.kenbill.com/?eid=1129I ordered Trunks from HLJ a few days ago. Aside from the sword (which is just a single piece of white plastic), I think Trunks came out looking pretty good. Vegeta looks off to me, though.
