Don't worry, the pre-orders aren't always listed at once sometimes they're staggered.
GSC said they're she's going up for pre-order tonight, so she will be. It seems like it'll just take a bit more time. ~_~

Soon, I hope. I just want to get my order in so I can rest easy.
Haha, same here.
I have more to do than refresh a page every few minutes. She'll be worth it, though [well, once she's released].

Its not really a dur. A lot of peopel aren't aware of how long it takes during the Holiday season.
This is how I pretty much convince myself.

I'll never be satisfied, I need more Mio figures!
Don't worry, you can likely knock a good 1,000-2,000 yen off of that if the stores offer a pretty good discount.
I still think the 7,500-9,000 yen range is where she'll sit, but we won't know for sure until the sites list her.
They seem to be taking their time.
Hopefully there's a good discount. The pre orders need to show up! I can't rest easy until I secure one.
Tharja on AmiAmi! 8,620 yen!

I have to ask, though. Where do you find the links to the product pages before they're actually on the main page?

Ordered, hot damn thank you for the link chrono01, it's after 5am and need to get to sleep now....
I just kept refreshing this page:
http://slist.amiami.com/top/search/list2?s_cate2=459&s_preorderitem=1&pagemax=30
It's a good thing I wasn't refreshing the Max Factory listings, considering she's listed incorrectly as Good Smile Company. This link lists new items under the "Bishoujo" category, so you can use this for any other in-demand figures that fall under that heading.
You're very welcome.
Enjoy your rest!
Looks like a name search for "Tharja" brings her up.
EDIT:Oops, that looks like a more consistent method.

Okay, so to navigate there, that's Bishoujo Figure -> Pre-Order Items, right? Good to know.
Yep, you got it!
You can do the same for Character Figures, Magazines, etc. They will be listed there as soon as they become available [the top portion will always be the newest].
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ordered! I love her and I still don't play the game.
Thanks chrono.

I didn't realize this was another Shining Wizard sculpt. After Hacker, I'm half-inclined to just buy anything the dude does from now on.
Wooo, thanks! Got my order in.

I missed the naming suggestion page so I'll just throw my own in there:

Sorry, she's mine.
I have the Save File [and documents] to prove it!
Yeah, he's definitely among my top three sculptors. He always does an amazing job.
Another satisfied pre-order customer! \(^_^)/
Had to. The sculpt and painting turned out gorgeous.
You mean you weren't already convinced by Catherine, Samurai, Muramasa, and Samus?
Someone should be brave and make a thread just for her in gaming.

The plastikitty write-up said her hips were at an awkward angle, but it looks perfect to me so long as you understand the anatomy of how she's posed.

Which Samus did he do? The Zero Suit?

9257yen on Hobby Search...Ouch. I think I'm going to get more off Amiami from now on. They are always more expensive...
Edit : Heh, they also list her as Good Smile.

Not always, sometimes they're more competitive. This is definitely one of those times where the difference is pretty massive. Unless you already have orders for December from HS [that you can combine shipping with], or are banned from AmiAmi, AmiAmi is clearly the better choice!
Also, from what I read, Good Smile Company is handling the distribution/marketing for Tharja, whereas Max Factory is handling the planning/manufacture. This is a great thing, since MF is much better at releasing a quality end-product than GSC [they've had a few issues as of late, but I still like GSC as a company]. MF simply have higher standards of QC, so the painting/shading on Tharja should be near identical to the advertising images we see now.
I'm excited! I'm almost tempted to order another, but I'm attempting to restrain myself...
I was tempted as well to be honest but I'll be on vacation for 2 weeks in December, I don't want to put that much strain on the credit card.
If you pre-ordered, you'll receive her. AmiAmi/HS are great with their pre-orders, although some have had issues with over-selling at HLJ [although it's never happened to me personally].
Do not worry!
Yeah, I'm grabbing Makise Kurisu - Lab Coat Ver. as well [I missed out on the original so this is a definite buy for me]. I also have a few other figures scheduled for December.
I might just make a second pre-order at HLJ when they're made available and use that as a possible purchase in case I decide to go the "Two Tharja" route [you can easily cancel there, not-so much with AmiAmi].
Yeah, I didn't get the original Kurisu so I must have the Lab Coat version as well. I might do that with HLJ too. Forgot that you could cancel with them.

I'm in for lab coat Kurisu as well. It's nice because I think this version looks even better than the original.
Needs a pvc tentacle in the OT then! I like it but the money jokes are my favs.
