Thanks! Glad you get something out of the site. I hope you can track down an extra copy of Gally for your friend, she’s looking really nice. Don’t worry about posting on the forum, no one really does… idling quietly is the style in these parts.

P.S. I joined the forum but I’m the quiet type so I don’t know how much I’ll post. Love the site.

Thanks Shingo. Your help is greatly appreciated. One of them is a birthday present for a friend who is nuts about Gally (who isn’t?).

Word is that J-List just got 20 copies in… I’ll keep an eye out for when they go up on the site. It’s also still available at Mangaoh and Amazon.co.jp last I checked.

HLJ canceled my order…I’m going to cry. I ordered early (Sept 19th)…what happened? Anyone know where else I can get a couple of these over to the USA? One for me and one for a buddy of mine. Just can’t cost an arm and a leg. Thanks in advance.

My pleasure, glad to be of help! Nice that they even have it for sale slightly off retail price; I haven’t seen any other Japanese stores doing that yet.

That’s right, Shingo. HLJ has it available for preorder and I already placed mine, I think I was one of the very first to do so, because it was little after 0h, Japan time. Thanks for your news about this release!

Might as well go for the HLJ preorder, I think their shipping is more reasonable than Mangaoh (and the site is in English).

>>Baldulf
Yup, that looks like the real deal. Given the price and the product description I can’t imagine it’d be anything else.

I think is already in HLJ.
Could somebody confirm is the same figure?

They accepts international orders but their site is all in japanese! Shingo, or somebody else, can you help me to fill in a preorder, please?? I want this figure so very much! kamugin@gmail.com

Haha, I know the feeling… ^^;; this one shouldn’t be too hard to come by as long as you keep an eye out for the Amazon listing, I think.

Hahahhaha….yeah, I got a little excited!

Sorry about that.

Really really looking forward to this.

I think the odds are very, very good that she’ll be up for preorder at Amazon.co.jp (and that they’ll ship internationally, because technically this is a special edition manga). We’ll be keeping an eye out for the Amazon listing when it eventually goes up.

The figure is 13 centimeters tall according to Mangaoh’s product description.
