Heh from GSC FB page:

"Nendoroid Mikazuki Munechika is already sold out at most retailers, but you can still get your pre-orders in at the Good Smile Company Online Shop! Plus he comes with a sweet pre-order bonus!
Order yours today before quantities are met and we can't accept any more orders!!!!!"

Wonder how long he will be on the GSC store? I really doubt he going to stay up till April 22nd now.

Yeah I certainly have enough chances at them, 16 booster boxes, 20 packs per box and 8 cards per pack so 2560 cards lol

Ah, yeah you did buy that huge box right? I'm not sure what the appearance rate is. I wanted to get the Love Live cards too, but my luck is pretty poor, so I stopped after 3 Trial Decks haha.

That said, opening packs is pretty fun. You don't get that from buying the signed cards singles. And the way you did it, you are guaranteed some cards simply because there will always be some of them in there when you buy them together.
 
Hobby Japan X MegaHouse: “Bikini Warriors” Project Gets Two New Members
Like if the announcement and of four warriors girls dressed in sexy and quite revealing outfits wasn’t interesting enough, Hobby Japan and MegaHouse decided to add two more characters to their “Bikini Warriors” project with Valkyrie and Hunter.

With the pleasing announcement, we learn that two more well known and talented artists joined the project along with previously announced illustrators Saito Masatsugu, Oda Non and Hisasi.

Valkyrie, dressed in a white and green outfit and coming holding a giant spear behind her back, is based on an illustration by utterly popular illustrator Tony Taka; Hunter, which is based on an illustration by the talented artist behind “Black Lagoon” Hiroe Rei, is proposed in a very dynamic pose while she’s jumping and holding her bow, ready to shoot an arrow.

Both Valkyrie and Hunter will be manufactured by MegaHouse as previously announced “Bikini Warriors” Dark Elf, Fighter, Paladin, and Mage.

Yeah I bought the carton that has 16 booster boxes in it. This is my first Weiss Shwartz so im not sure what the rate is either. I thought trial decks have fixed cards in them?

Yeah opening them is probably the best part and yeah buying lots of packs at once usually gives better chances.

Curious, do you play the game with anyone? Or just want the cards?

I don't have anyone here to play the game with but I do want to learn the game and make a deck for me and my friend to play, so a bit of both.

That Valkyrie is pretty nice.

Yeah, there is a small chance for the Trial cover to be in there as a signed card though. So I had a chance for Honoka.

I found this on it (Signed card appearance rate).

Well, every box is guaranteed at least one foil card or signed card. The foil cards may or may not be expensive, but they tend not to be worth more than 50-60 dollars with the least popular fetching as little as 5 bucks. The chances for a signed card is roughly 1 out of 8 boxes. Each case (16 boxes) only has 2 to 3 cards guaranteed in them, so trying to make money out of just buying random boxes, especially if you are buying from different sources, is really low. You have to be a super lucky mofo to actually pull tons of signed cards and actually make money.

And even if you pull a signed, if it is of a unpopular character, the price can be as low as $30 - $40.


So that means there will be 2 signed cards, 3 if you are lucky apparenty.

Is there anyway to combine orders in the GSC shop? I have something else in August and if I can combine Sword boy it would be worth ordering there.

Ah didn't know that and cool seems I'm guaranteed at least a couple ^_^ just hope one of them is Kotori, though anyone but Hanayo will be fine (I like all the characters but she's my least favorite lol)

I actually just ordered a couple LL notebooks and pens for the next couple months orders haha. So much LL merch.
 

lol feel free to choose either :p

Not counting shipping, which isn't much if you just throw it in with a box of figures, that price is actually about the price of a normal baka gaijin tissue box.

Oh I'm not worried about shipping costs, my june order is a 138k order (2 scales, 4 nendo's and the carton of love live cards) so some boxes of tissues probably wont add anything :3

Oh Japan, you never cease to amaze me.
Yeah and I'm sure they love people like me, just throw random item with favorite show X on it and "boom sold" lol

I actually just ordered a couple LL notebooks and pens for the next couple months orders haha. So much LL merch.

Yeah I actually pre-ordered all the pens because I find them all cute and if its the same notebooks im thinking about I ordered Nico and Kotori. 47 amiami pages of love live stuff, there is tons of it lol

You should also be entitled to monthly letters from that AmiAmi employee's kid that you're putting through University.

Rightstuf did send me a christmas card this past christmas because I spend a ton throughout the year so that was nice lol and apparently im not the only one buying the tissue boxes, the Nozomi one is #5 in the top goods/costume ranking at amiami lol

Oh, it wasn't for your enthusiasm for Love Live. It's just without that link I didn't think you were talking about an actual product...

I'll see myself out now.

ah lol probably should have linked the item with my initial post lol

Nothing about Japan surprises me anymore.

Same lol
