amazon japan dose ship some stuff world wide, ive seen a few 00 blu rays that they will shop to the states.
|
"Shipping: We're sorry; this item can not be shipped outside Japan" as listed on amazon is killing me. : \
|
Hmm, for a guy that buys models at hobby shops as opposed to online, this is insulting....
|
Japan certainly likes to shaft people on certain extremely-desired exports, doesn't it?
|
They sure do.

Ya I would say they do. Some of them at least. Shops in Japan often have discounts on gunpla up to 30%, even for newly released items after a few weeks. The 37% discount isn't something the locals would be excited about since it's just about the norm for them. Nothing much to ponder for the rest of us really, since it was never privy to us in the first place. |
Great....more out of our pockets. We'd have to pay for shipping anyway if we were able to get it.

What I suggest is perhaps one of you guys should try to set up an online store, buy direct from Bandai and sell them at a non-profit wholesale price to give those online vulture a run for their money. |
I wasn't talking about the hobby market exclusively, actually. We tend to get screwed out of a lot of good video games released only in Japan, for example. I can understand the reasoning behind a lot of it, such as what you said about the hobby market, and things like the licensing issues in games like Super Robot Wars.
But it doesn't make it suck any less for those of us who are incapable of getting it directly. |
I was trying to preorder it at Amazon.co.jp, but I don't have a phonenumber in Japan yet. I get my Alien Registration Certificate later in October so I can't buy a cellphone yet. Bah.
EDIT: Nvm, succeeded now. Cheap PG 00 Raiser for me! |
HG Masurao's for December, with revamped design and more joints. Nothing for November yet for the HG00 line.
Still no news of December's MG, which is awfully late given the past trends. |
for the quebeley MK-II
will it be like a version two design or just recolored of the old one? |
It's a recolor.
MG Qubeley is a fine design already imo. It would be nice if it gets a 2.0 but no great loss if it doesn't. /cue usual comments across the interwebz about old models getting 2.0 where a dozen more aren't even featured yet. |

Errr... HG Masurao? Since when? Silly Bandai... Give us a HG Alvaaron/Gaga already! |
Not interested in the Movie Gundams. I might not even like them, :heh:
