Already got mine preordered, and really can't wait! As usual the Koto Direct comes with stickers, while the other shops don't. Either way it looks fantastic and I really can't wait to see how they handled the painted details in person. What sort of stickers you talkin' about there? Also did you have to do anything special like use a service to order direct from Kotobukiya or do they post outside of Japan no worries? I'd like to try ordering from them. Finding it a tad difficult to negotiate the site though, like even with translate the buttons are still in Japanese, I'm scared to click anything it's like eeny meeny miny moe oh no what have i done. |

Vig For the stickers on the shoulders and stuff. I don't believe they come with the figures sold from other stores. It has a picture of the sticker sheet in the lower left of this poster. As far as I know Kotobukiya Direct will only ship to Japan, so yeah, you'd need to go through a deputy service. Be aware of the fees, though. Cheapest place to order Mugen right now is Amiami at 5990 Yen. With Koto Direct's higher price and service fees you're probably going to be paying at least 2,550 yen more just for the sticker sheet. That's not counting if there is a domestic shipping charge. (Koto Direct offers free shipping on some items but I don't know if there's a minimum order requirement for it. It might only apply to charges of like 10,000 yen or higher.)

ok Thanks Han, exactly what I needed to know, Looks like I'll stick to Ami Ami then.
Seeing as I tend not to use stickers anyway unless they are an essential part of the look or what not... Which in this case it is I noticed, those grey lines for the shoulder and head even came with the Tomy kit. If they don't include stickers in the non-direct boxes one would have to paint the lines themselves. Why would they do that to us.

Mugen has been released! HLJ lists it as discontinued but other places have it in stock.
Now I'm debating if I should just get mine shipped out since HLJ's EMS for it is cheap or if I should wait for other "July" preorders to come in...

Huh. ImageAnime didn't put Mugen in their store...odd.
Is it just me or did Mugen release faster compared to the time period between the Murasame and Hayate release?

I never stopped collecting, just switched my focus. A lot of people probably don't know this about me but I began collecting Transformers and Lego Star Wars before I ever began collecting Zoids. These days I'm also collecting Star Wars The Black Series, Star Wars X-Wing Miniatures, and Gundam Robot Damashii.

Haha, Black Series is a worthy investment (most of the time); something modern and easier to find in the States, distribution woes and QC issues aside. Could never opt for Bandai Model Kits or SH Figuarts due to import costs. |
