I feel your pain dude.... and tokyotoys is alright, but overpriced I think.... Try Yesasia maybe. They ship to england. I need to try them.... And its cheaper I think...

it would be nice if you could link to the sites that sell them danny (or at least to one, or to your source) :) EDIT: Oh maybe you did but I'm tired, I might have missed the link..

I looked around and couldn't find any english websites for pre-order. I checked both goodsmile and shuraki website. goodsmile's release page haven't been updated yet, and according to http://heiseidemocracy.com/, 26th is the pre-order date release, and 27th mid night is the real pre-order release date. So I guess I got wait couple more hours to see it pop on HJL or some other site

Well my dealer is rather slow in opening up the Shuraki preorders, they usually open a week after the major online stores have open theirs, so its a patience wait for me. Thankfully they are good and I've already secured the first 3.
(ID #10271) Posted on 2007/11/28 02:07
just preordered her at Hobby Search, she's still available at the moment so anyone that want to get her quickly go order now ^^
(ID #10272) Posted on 2007/11/28 02:49
This time I managed too grab one at HobbySearch ahaha ^^; Won't make the same mistake twice :p
(ID #10273) Posted on 2007/11/28 03:01
i already preorder. i hope i get this one because i didn't get shuraki 2. omg shuraki detail is perfect i will collect them all.
(ID #10290) Posted on 2007/11/28 04:41
erm, just preordered in Hobby Search, it still available by now, but later hard to say lo...
(ID #10297) Posted on 2007/11/28 05:13
Hobby Search is about the only place with reserves still available, just got mine in. Apparently Hobby Stock and KidNemo sold out in a matter of minutes. Places like HLJ and Play-Asia haven't even listed her yet.

I have a few questions. Not so much about Needa but rather the Good Smile Shuraki line she is the most recent addition to. I really liked a few of the figures that came before her in the series(and love Needa too) but I was curious. What were they all about? I mean were they from a fighting game or a eroge or manga I was unfamiliar with? The best my searching could turn up was this http://heiseidemocracy.com/2007/06/20/figure-news-goodsmile-red-entertainments-shuraki-vol-1-for-sale-sold/ While it makes things clearer it still doesn't offer much information. It seems that these lovely ladies have back stories of some sort. Shame on you Danny, your our man on the scene and you haven't filled us in of these. I mean the figures look great but I'd like to know more about them.

The shuraki series are conpletely original designs from a partnership with goodsmile and red entertainment (Who were responsible for the Sakura Taisen series). Aside from the figures and the drama CDs which are included in the box, there is no other media for the line. There is some backstory to it, but the only way you can learn of it is to be fluent in japanese and listen to the audio CDs in the figure kits and also reading the artbook. It's some basic story about a great evil rising again and select girls are able to wield a special power to defeat it... Personally, Needa is in my "do not want" box. *dodges projectiles* It just hasn't grabbed me like the first 3 did. The 5th one looks good tho...

Got mine from Hobby Search at around 1 AM Pacific Standard Time... still available. I thought it'd be sold out by now. I also picked up Miku Nendoroid and Elise MMS ^_^

must...have...money...to...buy...figures...lolz XDDD
(ID #10337) Posted on 2007/11/28 09:38
Well I was able to put in an order on Hobby Search. I thought they would have been sold out too.
(ID #10354) Posted on 2007/11/28 11:54
Seems like Needa arouses much less interest than previous boxes (maybe girls with guns are less famous than girls with swords hehe), since she is still available at e-stores like HobbySearch. Or maybe GSC has plan many more unit to release?
(ID #10391) Posted on 2007/11/28 19:01
any1 know when hlj will be getting the preorder in?
(ID #10404) Posted on 2007/11/28 21:00
They may not, they always seem to be a little lack luster when it comes to anything by Shunya Yamashita. They've not listed many of his works in the past.
(ID #10405) Posted on 2007/11/28 21:03
they have all the other shuraki's though so im hoping they'll get her in
(ID #10416) Posted on 2007/11/28 22:31
I've been checking HLJ at least 1o times in the past 12 hours... it's driving me nuts lol.
(ID #10429) Posted on 2007/11/29 00:00
Not yet, not yet... I must be patient...
(ID #10406) Posted on 2007/11/28 21:07
pre-ordered mine today from a seller who can get it for me from a supplier in japan. ('~')
(ID #10533) Posted on 2007/11/29 11:05
I gave up on HLJ, called my local dealer and got a pre-order from him.
(ID #10796) Posted on 2007/12/01 01:50
HLJ finally got this in for preorder. You'll get a 5% discount if you order it before, or on, the 18th of December. Ahh, at last! :D
