I got a replay to an email from tokyocube:

"Fewmany will accept/decline all remaining requests, in order, very shortly."

Looks like I'm gonna miss out since I sent my request pretty late.

hmm maybe i got in afterall then

havent heard anything yet

I hope I got in....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fingers crossed, fellas.

these are brand new and don't really cost all that much, so i dont know if it really counts as a grail so to speak, but this was actually the piece that brought me to this message board in the first place. someone posted this elsewhere and when i asked about it i was basically told "good luck"

it would be cool to end up with my "gateway kaiju"

Relax guys. If you didn't get a Marswillrule email then you're likely locked in (unless it was a "request" or lottery type thing).

I've been wrong before and it could fall through but that particular seller has been great in the past on super limited items.

Edits: I missed out so I'm not sure how they're doing the sale. Tokyocube is generally true to their word. If its a "request" it might be lottery though.

Got my order confirmation! This is my 1st piece of Japanese Vinyl, can't wait to see it in the flesh.

You just got it? When did you get your request in? God, I want this piece.

I don't think this was a pre-order at all...

I put an order for 2 figures, it went through and then realized it was a one piece per person.

So I went back on their site and ordered the last remaining figure. After this appeared the message about taking request.

I send them an email to tell them to cancel my first order and got a reply.

So I think they don't have an automatic control for the quantity you order, so they have to check the orders later and this is why they accept requests after....

A bit tricky I guess...

As far as I know, my first order has been cancelled, wainting now to be refund and the second order is on its way.

Hope you guys will get one !

Was this before the pre-order status when you ordered? I didn't even get an email confirmation for it.

Wait so even before the request there was a pre-order that guaranteed you a piece?

For me it didn't look like a pre-order, I think they had the items in stock...

When did you order? Was it before around 10 AM on Saturday morning EST?

I ordered mine round' 8-9am and I've heard nothing yet. Well, I'm not gonna sweat it. No use, good luck though!

It wasn't a preorder, it was a request which is a slightly different thing. I think they take orders initially and try to fill them but they don't always know how many they will get, so I guess it will be oversubscribed...

Makes sense.....so what time did you order?!?!?!

maybe if i told tokyocube that i started a thread to sell them all out that they will show thanks by pulling my name too!

that'll work, right? ...right?

still havent heard anything myself and it still says PENDING on their site

Wait so is this definitely a lottery?

no idea, but it skyjackers got an email already, maybe so.

i'm just being pessimistic

I guess no news is good news. I ordered as soon as I saw it, but I don't know how long it had been up for. I don't know about it being a lottery, I just think it was first come first served and they'd sell as many as they managed to get a hold of, which I doubt was many. I think they're good guys though and will do they're best. Good luck all...

The item is def marked as "sold out". I checked the status of my request and it's marked "pending". Not sure what this means in this case but I'm optimistic since they havn't sent me an e-mail saying I'm out.

Receivd email from Tokyocube that I missed out on the GID Dehara dog but not yet on the Rangeas...keeping fingures crossed

That's not good theyre still accepting request on dehara dog. I would be shocked if they got more than 3-4 Rangeas' in. I know I wasn't one of the first three or four so my fingers are crossed and my hands are praying.

My hand held device wouldn't allow use of teh request button - so I emailed them instead - but unfortunately they refused to honor an email as it wasn't a request...fair enough - but a bit of a downer as otherwsie I'd have been in time

Concerning your question, my order was put on saturday morning at 6:37 AM (I'm in France) so I guess it is okay...

I checked the status and it is now pending while the first one is now cancelled.
