    When these become available, international orders can be made through their online shop (which is down at the moment): http://starcase.shop-pro.jp/

    I specifically asked the owner about ordering from abroad, and he said as long as you have Paypal and can bash your way through the Japanese ordering site, you're good.

    Did anyone get one of these? Please let me know. I somehow had one but got screwed when I clicked the complete order button and there was an error. :evil: I did not receive any email confirmation so I am guessing that once again I am SOL. So sad right now, these guys are tops. :cry:

    PS - I am really fed up with websites that can't put an article on hold for you when you are in the checkout process. Seriously, I know it is possible to do this. We are not all bots that can autocomplete checkouts in less than 0.5 seconds.

    Re: Star Case Governor Space Meyer

    Don't almost all of the sites we deal with do things the same way? I know Grumble Toy, Mishka, Rotofugi, S7, Mandarake and Lulu have all had to refund or deny orders because of this. I don't know what the reason is. Maybe it's possible but just a big pain? It might not be their choice, they just pick/use a cart system and that's that? I know some of the mentioned have even tried to set things so that didn't happen and it still happened.

    maybe it's to keep things more fair? so you cant just be the guy with biggest F5 button and the fastest internet and be at the site on time and click it and chill. I think only bigcartel will hold the shit while you check out.

    Re: Star Case Governor Space Meyer

    Well he seems to be basing it off of some obscure bootleg artwork. In a pic on page 2 you can see C-3PO, "R-2" a Stormtrooper and what looks to be Luke in X-Wing gear. Not sure who that is w/R-2 there, thought it was Han but it seems to have a robot hook arm too.

    These are actually based off old model kits.
    The artwork that you see is from the boxes.

    Re: Star Case Governor Space Meyer

    The prices on these on the 2nd hand marked, is allready four dobble, of the original price.

    When I think of, how much the flippers are making on these toys, compaired too the company that made em, Im suprised the manufactures is ignorent toward this! It's like selling artwork, for 1/4 of the price, too the flippers, that go out and make the rest of the 3/4 on it.
    I can't belive how badly organised japanese toy manufactures are.

    By the way, japanese companies aren't the only one, that I have seen nearly giving toys away.
    The marked is high on demand and low on suplies!

    Not badly organised just largely uninterested. These are toys generally made for the love and the domestic market.

    Why should they be concerned about the International interest when the small quantity they manufacture sell out locally anyway!

    The world does not gravitate around Skullbrain!

    Or "the west".

    Bemon sells direct, via YJA, so I guess these guys can all just flip themselves right? They're not ignorant to it but it's impossible to know who ALL the flippers are. So they just take their chances and toss them out there.

    There are people on this board who've figured out the cart system and scored this. If you couldn't that sucks, but it gives you edge on the next time since you would have tried and failed.

    Anyone else get the yellow version? It was made to order, but only for 15 min. I missed out due to a haaaaaaaaaaaaaard night at work and couldn't wake up. The box is cool but the main reason I'd want it, so I'm not crying about missing a $60+ box, but it's still pretty fun.
