I really hope if they do announce Majin Vegeta, they go ahead and give a SSJ2 Goku head to go with him. Then again, it took how many years to get out Goku which was just a headswap, and a long time to get out Ultimate Gohan, so I guess that's just wishful thinking. I'd be so happy if we got a 2-pack for this:  |

I'd be so happy if we got a 2-pack for this: I wish they just released majin vegeta, and along with it comes a hair sculpt with a smirky face compatible with the ssj awakening warrior goku, but then again I guess we are hoping too high. I was also thinking the same thing. Ultimate gohan head could've come with the base goku but its reasonabke what they did since they are two different characters and just imagin the size of the package for the accesories. |

Yes, pretty damn annoyed by this. I paid for 2 of these last week and they still haven't even shipped them. I've just e-mailed them requesting 1,800 yen be credited to my account. Not happy at all!! |

Do they automatically credit the difference back like Amazon? |

Guys BBTS is really expensive , does anyone else have a reliable website where they DONT charge for pre orders ? BBTS really isn't that expensive. Their prices are the standard MSRP for the figures. Unfortunately, it looks like a lot of the vendors that are cheaper alternatives are going to start charging a little for pre-orders. That's no surprise there...eventually those cancellations on pre-orders add up and stores are left with stock they can't move and begin losing some money, especially when they offer items under MSRP. MHToyShop is doing it now, and I collect Sideshow/Hot Toys and remember back when Sideshow Collectibles wasn't charging non-refundable deposits for pre-orders. It all eventually catches up. If you understand a bit into the inner-workings of Supply Chain Management, then you'll know that every vendor already PAYS Bluefin for your order before you get the item. They are invoiced for their large order before they get their stock in. They are getting a reduced rate because they buy in bulk and have warehouse prices, but they are already "losing" money. You pay $40 for a Figuarts, the retailer pays a reduced rate like $30, meaning they make a $10 profit off your sale. The distributor (Bluefin) let's say pays $20 for each item and Bandai in total pays $5 to manufacture and produce each individual item (I'm not getting into costs with operational costs, labor, equipment, design, etc.). |

Amazon started to suck after the Vegito figure (atleast to me). I don't really know what happened but I think some of the things Bardoon said has to do with it.
