This is the monsterarts we need next.
Honestly love the look of that Godzilla. Not sure I'd buy SHMA version, but it has its appeal. And it would give Tamashii more excuses to keep pumping out almost exclusively Godzilla figures :P

Funny thing is that when you go into your orders it's listetd as 'in stock', but also still labeled as 'pre-order'... never seen that with amiami before... :eh:

What's wrong with Nippon-Yasan? I've ordered from them in the past and haven't had any issues.

Lately, they haven't been sending out orders on time or at all. I have two orders that came out 2-3 months ago that they still have not shipped out, despite the fact they have been sending out every other order to me in a timely manner.

Please go to the FB page 'Nippon Yasan tricked me too'. There are literally hundreds of customers from all over the world in that group alone, so there are likely MANY, MANY more (likely thousands worldwide) who didn't made it into that group yet. Those people are waiting for their high-priced pre-orders since 2019 through 2020 and still continuing and obviously happens to new customers until this very day. I myself are a victim and I ordered from them almost monthly (!) since ULTRA-ACT & SHMA began releasing web exclusives. I pre-ordered and pre-payed (!) SHMA Burning G '19 and last years' re-issues of G '54 & G '02 in early 2020 as soon as pre-orders popped up as I was used to do for many years. Those orders are still listed as 'pre-order' or 'payment received' to this very day and never got shipped. I got talked down several times by their chat-workers (or bots...?) to 'please just be patient because chaos due to COVID restrictions causes delays' until openeing PayPal cases was no longer possible (180 days deadline). Their ticket system is useless as skreeonk since they simply NEVER reply. I have tickets opened and untouched by NY which are like a year old. Chat workers always promise to send info to some mystical 'higher staff member', yet never anything comes out of it. They never gave me or others my requested refunds or ANY official explanation for this BS AT ALL.

Obviously they are scamming people out of their hard earned money. It is unbelievable. I resorted to them because they always were as trustworthy as it gets. Being a SHMA completionist I'll now never get the G'54 & G'02 re-issues for a reasonale price although I PRE-PAYED THEM (Nippon-Yasan) for them. I luckily managed to still get the '19 Burning Godzllla elsewhere for almost MSRP. NY still stole over 30,000 JPY (items + shipping) from me alone. There are people in that group who got ripped of 1.000+ USD of pre-ordered items worth. Nippon-Yasan even stopped their chat option as well as accepting PayPal payments for new orders at some point, likely bacause of the high amount of cases filed against them. I stopped all business with them and I can NOT recommend them anymore because you have a great chance of getting scammed, which people with recent cases coming to the FB group regularily prove. Interestingly enough they still do fullfill many new and recent orders to try to look like a fine shop to buy from for new customers, but it's a risky business for anyone ordering from them now and they are sh*tting on their long-year loyal buyers. I've never witnessed anything like that before.

Got my AmiAmi payment request for G89 Wednesday, shipped late last night. They did have a note on the site that said they were having logistical delays with shipping out August orders. Probably understaffed due to COVID.

Does anyone know how prone the gold paint on the various MA Ghidorahs is to flaking? I was thinking about how to support the 2019 SCV's wings in a display and I wasn't sure how safe it would be to brace them on small buildings or the like.

Name a pain greater than having to reattach a Tamashii figure's arm joint?

I'll wait.

Buying an exclusive hard to find figure only for it to come with two left feet. And the company being notorious with crappy customer service. So now you're stuck with two left feet Mcgee over here.

The first MonsterArts I preordered was the Ultimate Burning G. I remember being so fucking nervous about getting it after seeing all the derp eyes. Got lucky, though.
