1999.co.jp puts up photos of the contents of the box as well as the box cover! From the pictures it'd seem that the plastic is stronger and darker than the prototype pictures showed (*ahem* " I told you so" xp) and the red looks a magnificent shade worthy of any Empire :3 Given that they tend to photograph their own stuff, I'd hazard a guess that the Command Wolf LC Zenebas Empire Type has arrived at hobbystores over Japan! Likely this means they'll begin sending em out very soon <3 Mercyrabbit has put up the art shown on the box (which as far as box covers go, looks magnificent going by 1999's pics) on his front page here though the front page is a tad NSFW so a more direct link is here.

Thanks for the update, Mystik. The box art is great, I love the glowing eyed Helcat's.
The red of the model looks good too, much better than the pink in the Colour Guide. But the frame is still too lilac for my liking.
I've not ordered either HMM Wolf yet and both colour schemes are not quite right for me, so its hard to decide which one to buy. But I'm leaning towards the Imperial just for the long rifle.

The photos of the woof are still stock (though nicely 'Shopped out) I would love to see it in the final colors... looks much darker, like Redhorn red. Is it just me, or do those metallic parts look more like a satin finish than chrome? I hope they are... the photos look really good! Does anyone know when they are shipping the pre-ordered woofs?

they say it's a late-july release. Annoying, I know, not to know THE EXACT DATE they're being released. (You've got to admire their jenius, though. This prevents people from camping out in front of they're buildings waiting for them to be released.)

Looks like you only get one choice in canopy color this time.

HLJ is sending out invoices for it now saying they have it ready to ship as soon as payment is received so I guess today is the release date.

HLJ just asked me for payment too. Go, SAL, go!
It was surprisingly cheap to ship, too...1080 yen. Who else too cheap to pay for EMS wants to have a package race?

Too cheap to pay for EMS, too impatient to wait for SAL... I flipped a coin! And I got my HLJ payment request this morning as well so I think we can safely say that the LC Empire is released or will be in the next couple of days ;D
