hey /toy/, I'm not very familiar with the board or toys in general as I've never owned one or bought one, and I've got a question.

>>8724009 Bbts is pretty slow getting stuff in, and with the Covid slowing up shipping its par for the course. It will come in eventually. I have never had a preorder from Bbts canceled on me unless the item itself never got released.

>>8724038 I figured it would, I'm just real antsy to get one and don't know if eventually is next month eventually or half a year eventually. If it would be the latter I think I'd just order the unit 1 right now.

Lately they usually get things a month or two late, I think it would be out by the end of February. All speculation of course.

>>8724028 not him but they tend to be out of stock too quickly, and overprice things. though it;s usually for stuff i want that i dont pre-order, and that only applies to import stuff. otherwiise, theyre the only store with the warehouse option like HLJ. correct me if im wrong though

>>8724028 usually it's just trolling. some green text and nothing to back it up with.

>>8725109 Anon, BBTS has a ton of issues, its never a joking matter when someone raises concerns about them.

>>8725127 Please highlight the "ton of issues" BBTS has. I've honestly never heard anyone say anything worse aside from the obvious (and very true) points that they are slow to get in pre-orders for Japanese figures and that they overprice said figures. Still cheaper than EE for international buyers (when you have no other choice).

>>8724009 Been out of the toy scene for a while but that looks nice. Where's the best place to order Unit 01 at or below retail?
Old pic is of my Yamato Ingrams.

Now everything's just a soulless general

This board is full of shitposters worse than shit eater greg and jin now with even less life to live

>>8724009 well there IS A PANDEMIC going on so production for everything out there has got delayed. i never had problems with BBTS. i trust them more over amazon and ebay thats for sure. i bought most of my toys from them and i have been happy so far.

>>8724009 I ordered Unit 1 from them and that came in no problem, and to my knowledge they both got put up on BBTS at the same time and are also supposed to release together as well I think. Something like this happened with the SHFSS Tajador, scheduled for release on BBTS in September and to this day they still have it up for pre-order and change it's release date every month. I emailed them a while ago about this and they said that it's all on the manufacturer's end and that that they just haven't sent BBTS the stock they were promised. Don't know how I ended up getting Unit 1 with no hitches but the whole situation is weird. That's my experience

On a side note, I wish I could bring myself to sell my Yamatos. They look so outdated with those terrible proportions yet everytime I handle them, I find the extra gimmicks so cool I think I would miss them.
