Got my 2021 MG. I used shock oil very carefully to make sure all the joints moved okay, and so far, I haven't had any breaks. It looks great, and man it is a big beast.

This is why I've tended to go through BBTS for my preorders, Amazon has had all sorts of odd issues with cancelling, often with the product showing up for sale shortly after, so it wasn't like they had their stock not show up.

Same?

Its no longer in my order history or in pending shipment OR even Canceled Orders. Its on my mothers Amazon Prime so I need to verify if she got a cancellation email or not. No email and it got canceled i'm going to customer care. As someone who works parcel shipment, im ok with just an email because i'm not a people person myself and I can relate not reaching out to call. But you DO NOT just ghost cancel orders and fucking remove ANY RECORD of it being placed. I can care less if you Ghost Cancel me, but you DO NOT fucking remove any trace of it.

Added in 15 minutes 27 seconds:
Yup. Went 2 years back in Order History. Its erased entirely. Good job Amazon!

Watch none of this happen!!
I'm thinking '23 will be for Jet Jaguar and '24/'25 for Mechagodzilla (plus Godzilla's 70th/possible new movie).

I'm shocked that we're in 2022, on the final season of Attack on Titan, and Bandai has yet to even hint at a Titan line. Not for their vinyls, not for their figuarts, not even for their Monsterarts.

You'd think Bandai would be foaming at the mouth for the $$$ here. Everyone wants an Attack Titan, Armored Titan, Jaw Titan, Colossal Titan, the sky is the limit on regular Titan variants, and that's not even getting into the human figures.

They'd have a full grasp on the market as well considering there is no other company doing it.

Good Smile has the AOT license. And Good Smile has basically proven they don't give a shit about anything that isn't human, sadly.

Really? Dang that blows, I wonder if its possible for AOT to distribute its license to other companies?

Honestly, the titans are really ugly. It would be awkward to sell them in stores. And I love AOT.

That's true lol, but Godzilla isn't much prettier! :lol:

I think SHMA would be the best bet for the license (If ever possible), I'm sure they'd be a major hit in Japan.

Hoo, long time since I've logged in. I don't know if anyone hasn't gotten their Singular Point Goji yet, but if they were on the fence because of price Gamestop currently has it on sale for $97.74 and a "buy $75 save 10%, buy $125 save 20%" deal going on, so you can get it for ~$78 with free shipping if you play your cards right.

You can pick up exclusive rewards like a new xplus figure based off the new suit or an exclusive bluray of the upcoming short they'll produce, and even get a thank you credit in the credits.
On an unrelated note, I'm guessing Gamestop's April 15 release date for SCV Ghidorah will prove wildly inaccurate?

Well, BBTS had it set for February, and I estimated at least a two month margin of error, so clearly I'm about to be wrong. Still, with how everything else has been going, my plan so far is to wait till it comes in and ship my whole POL at once if possible, both to save on shipping and reduce running around to get it if the PO messes up and holds the box again.

Shitty Mechagodzilla arrived! Although I'm starting to slightly appreciate the design more now that I have a figure of it. The tail is amazingly flexible on this thing and really holds a pose. I wish all SH tails were like this one.

Legs are fine. I've been careful with them.

Now my Monsterverse shelf is finally complete... save for the skullcrawler, but, eh, I'm not expecting figure of that anytime soon.

^ Nice setup. Godzilla and MG roaring at each other over top of Kong looks cool.

Still waiting like most of us here it seems to get my hands on SCV Ghidorah. Pre-ordered from BBTS back in Summer 2021 ams now it seems like it might be close to 10-12 months from pre-order that we actually get our hands on it. Shame since a lot of the toy reviewers got it already for at least a month now. Patience is a virtue, but does anyone know when the figure may finally drop to the masses here stateside?

May avoid pre-orders in the future with BBTS given the inaccuracy of the release timeline and now that Ganestop seems to be putting Monsterarts on sale at what might be the lowest prices I've seen for them in a whole. Paying $60-70 for G89 back on Cyber Monday was like a blast from the past lol.
