2 - 3 days
I've only had one instance where I ordered an already in-stock item, and it took them four days to ship it. If that helps.

Thanks, it'll probably be late next week now since the Holiday started.

Thanks for the link. My May order was light with only Luke and another figure so I was able to combine it with that.
One grail down now.

Yeah no problem. I was going to get that one until I found the one on MFC. Glad it was someone from here that got it.
Heh, just paid for my April order (requested yesterday) and right after that i got a payment request for Amatsukaze. Didnt realise Amiami had split her from the main order (GSC delayed her to may then chabged it back to april the following week). Oh well, WaitingForSAL.gif will be the theme of this month while I go for some r&r in Romania. Hopefully that'll also lower the chances of adding more stuff to the May order.

Your icon reminds me there are no Ion figures and that makes me sad.

So who wants to talk about their favorite Figma accessory?

skytube is becoming one of my favorite makers.
Skytube, Max Factory, Alter, GSC, Native
funny enough that native, max factory are both subsidiaries of GSC lol.

Yeah, I thought that was odd. Wasn't expecting a payment request for figma Amatsukaze on her own. I swear I only saw one April order and not two. Otherwise would've combined them.

It depends... I tend to use their private warehouse A LOT to save on shipping and it varies. Sometimes it's literally the same day or up to 3-4 days.

Does AmiAmi always melt down when more than one new highly anticipated figure preorder goes live at a set date and time? C'mon guys.
It could have been worse, they don't even sell the newer Saint Seiya Myth Cloth. I have been unable to reach HLJ for about 15 minutes. Bandai new preorders waves are no joke :/

Got him! Hoo boy. Is this what it's like for Ein when a new Miku goes up?

I have joined a study tour visiting Osaka. I will have one day for free visiting. Are there any must-go places for figures and model kits? Could you recommend some goodies for me? Thank you.

Go to Nipponbashi in Osaka.

Megahouse Digimon scales, guessing they're doing a reprint cause most of them were their store exclusive and what with the new series of Digimon coming back they're basically capitalising on nostalgia as well lol
Edit:
Teaser: Shinmai Maou No Keiyakusha Naruse Maria Dwell By Vertex Painted Prototype
Vertex reveals today first teaser photo of their Shinmai Maou no Keiyakusha Naruse Maria Dwell figure, which follows previously announced figure of Naruse Mio by the company.
Naruse Maria has been fully revealed unpainted back in late March and, although not officially confirmed yet, the figure will most likely be a 1/8 scale matching Vertexs Mio. While waiting for more information, heres first photo of painted prototype released by Vertex today.

Same. x_x
Although it's probably a good thing for my wallet as anything Surge Concerto related would be insta-bought by me.
Except if it's by Griffon.
Forgot that existed. When is it?
EDIT: Yayifications! It's happening on May 30th. What a nice birthday gift. Alter usually has a big showing at Megahobby. Same for Megahouse (duh). GSC and sister companies, not so much.

Oh I added a few items that were on "backorder status" to my april loot and as of right now all the items of my order are in stock but those. I have done it before but Amiamis never removed them since it was holding the order up so if thats what happened to you then sorry to hear that
I approve of this.

Yep, gone are the days of a decent priced Tohka. Giving up on getting her now lol.
Is this the same character getting that other lewd figure with wardrobe malfunction?
Either way I also approve of this.
Yeah, I was looking at the update last night... prices seem to be pretty high now. Was really surprised to see Suigintou nendo at like 6.3k (I mean she's the best of course so no surprise to see her price go up a bit after release but I wasn't expecting her to nearly double in price like that) and several other things seemed higher than usual. I picked up two more of the meguca nendos from Mandarake because they're about 500 yen cheaper each over there. One exception was an A/B nendo of Madoka herself on amiami for like 2200 which was a really good price compared to MSRP, Mandarake, and MFC. Good thing I'm more or less done with preowned hunting, too.

Done with what?
Preowned scales! Probably a Nendo here or there, but then it's all preorders.

From no more scales to no pre-owned scales. You've grown so much, Einbroch
