Tsk. Who doesn't know what they're up to? :laugh:

[Godmaster]

Pre-orders r to ensure tat ppl get wat they wan when the stock arrive..Personally i dun tink there's a need to pre-order this Star Convoy reissue now since i m pretty sure there will be enuff stock to go around when it arrives..As for the possiblility of stock cut,U-toys seems to haf this 'stock-cut by 70%' prob(the most recent being TFC #19)..But from wat i heard from TFH their stock for TFC #19 came in 100%..No stock-cut at all..Mebbe is due to different suppliers issue?.. :)

So all we haf to do nw is wait until sept comes.. :supz:

[[soundwave]]

its around the $160 range right.. myself am still considering if i shld get it.. :D

[Cloudimus Prime]

Last heard it's $120 range, not $160 range.

[Stunner24]

The cheaper the better :devil:

[des_yeo03]

']its around the $160 range right.. myself am still considering if i shld get it.. :D
Shld be much lower from wat i ve heard....Hopefully.... :thumbsup:

[Godmaster]

C'mon guys..Follow me..

Below $100..Below $100..Below $100........... :laugh:

Ok lame stuff aside,i tink the more possible pricing for this reissue would be ard $120 or so given the current sg market(from wat i heard too).. :D

[[soundwave]]

One-run production?If dun preorder then might nt be able to get?:shock:

[Stunner24]

But sometimes even if you pre-order, you may not even get the it :(

[Godmaster]

But it sounds so stupid if takara pulls such a stunt..Once i get any verification on tis i will post.. :|

Ok ok....will wait for your good news ;)

[Cloudimus Prime]

As far as I know, many many many productions are one run only. It's juz a matter of how many batches they release the stock.

[nivek99]

I guess they wanna avoid wat happened with the God Ginrai reissue, remember the amt of dead stock due to over supply of the particular piece :o ...anyway, I dun think the situation would be that bad as I'm very sure that the retailers would order maybe 50 extra as buffer stock, its not like Takara is gonna check their pre-order n limit their ordering wat ....this simply does not make sense....so dun worry too much abt it.... :supz:

[Godmaster]

From wat i heard from TFH,like wat CP has stated in his above post,many productions are one-run production.The retailers can onli order once and tats it.They can't order for a 2nd time.Some shops take preorders to haf a guage hw much stock they shld take from their suppliers.But they nv hear any news wif regards to Star Convoy reissue being a 'onli those who preorder then they produce' kind of thing.Everything will be as per normal from wat i gather.. :)

[des_yeo03]

This is one of those TF i m not afraid there ll be no or not enuff stock....At most dun get....heh.... :mrgreen:

[Cloudimus Prime]

Star Convoy will be $95-$110. Stocks will be sufficient.
