Ugh I missed out on this :/ I missed it at AX and now this!? Yes I agree there should have been a cap!
C'mon Aksys! England's getting a CE with her and US doesn't... geeze.

Aksys...you LIE!
How did they lie? They explicitly stated that when they were gone, they were gone; and that there would only be limited quantities. I feel your pain, I really do - as a collector of Japanese figures, I know all too well the pain of missing the chance to order before they sell out. If it makes you feel better, though, there are plans for other BlazBlue figures in the works, like a statue of Rachel.
Also, a question for Belisarius - will we get an email stating that the figure's been shipped, or will it just pop up on our door with no warning (like the order timeframe)?
And here's something I pointed out in the other thread:
Y'know, I kinda think that there's a chance of Noel getting a reissue, but as part of a set. Let me explain: remember that Hatsune Miku game for the PSP? Well, they included a Nendoroid Petit figure of Miku with the LE of that game. Anyway, after the figure sold out (quickly), fans demanded a reissue, but the requests were seemingly ignored. Six months later, Good Smile Company made a set of 12 Nendoroid Petits that not only included a new Miku (in a different pose), but other Vocaloid characters as well. So I think them making a BlazBlue set is entirely possible, but it would be up to GSC and ASW - completely out of Aksys's domain.

Anyone who ordered should receive an e-mail from Paypal when their order ships. I believe the orders are going out as we speak (type), so they should be showing up pretty soon.
To those of you who wanted one and didn't get one, I really am honestly very sorry, but we didn't have a whole lot of them to begin with, and a lot of them were sold at AX. The number of Nendoroids that went up for sale yesterday was quite small. I appreciate your feedback, though, and hopefully we'll be able to give you some advance notice if we have similar sales in the future.

Alright, cool. So since Aksys is in CA, I should probably get it by Saturday or Monday.

If you want to e-mail me your e-mail address at website (at) aksysgames (dot) com, we can look up your order if you're curious if it's shipped yet.
-your mother is a classy lady- sold out. Man... You have to stalk this site just to get one or something? This sucks. Time to save up for the jp LE as it seems it's gonna take me a while to pay the 150-200 I need ti get it. Then again I could buy the nendo on its own for 70, thank you resellers! Thank you!
=<
It gives me bad memories like the time I pre-ordered calamity trigger for ps3 6 months before release and still didn't get the chibi folder or the art book. (Gamestop stinks though...) And that's another 40 bucks right there...
$25 for a chunk of plastic, y'all. You're not missing THAT much. It's so much cheaper in Japan and Europe.

Uhhh no. You have to buy the LE in order to get one in Japan. And even if they are cheaper, we'd have to have them shipped over from japan. That aside, you'd have to find one that is being sold separately and not one at ebay prices.
But if you didn't want one, then you didn't need to comment. Seems to me like you troll alot.
I'm an autotroll. Being myself makes people think I'm trolling. >_>
I only REALLY troll on GameFAQs.
But my point is, the LEs don't cost that much more than regular. So insult to injury with a $25 price tag on the Neondroid, which was just one of the items us Americans are missing out on.

I understand your pain, been through this before with similar items. I didn't stalk this site, but I got used to subscribing to RSS feeds with Google Reader. This thread actually has a "RSS feed for this topic" button at the bottom - Google Reader automatically notified me when someone posted in the Noel Nendo thread she was for sale online.

I would like to know more about this and inquire about a link or elsewise that states there will be a Rachel statue.
THAT I would buy for a ridiculous price like $25 if I had a job, which I hope to have soon, lest I be without IRL Rachey-woos.
For a high quality statue of: Rachel, Noel, Tsubaki, Makoto, Trinity, Lambda/Nu, Kokonoe or Saya I would gladly pay 50-90 bucks for
Please don't tell me you guys forgot to put a "limit 1 per customer" clause when putting them up for sale...

The Nendoroids that were being sold in the aksys shop the same batch you guys' had left over from AX? If so, wow, I don't think most of the people here have any idea how few of them you had.

Uhhh... do you not know how to convert yen? The price of an LE for BBCS is at least around $100. If you get it from an import shop in the US expect $120. And If it is a reseller, expect $150-200.
But yea... That's only just a little more expensive than the 40 dollars to buy the game. \sarcasm
Which is why I choose not to let a reseller rape my wallet and let me do the purging through things like a Rachel statue.
Isn't flaming against the rules? >:(
Look, how much does the STANDARD edition cost in Japan? In Britain, the best LE, with the Neondroid, costs like $15 more and also comes with Squirrel Hooker.

Ninja'd.
What do you mean by "purging," and will you buy Family Card Games and play online with me? XD

Standard edition is about 70. LE is 100-110. So it's about 30-40 more.
I did nothing wrong. You came in trying to minimize how I felt about it, I'm just backing up what I have the right to feel. That being said, If it isn't an item you wanted I still don't get why you posted...
Enough of this though. ^_^
