No, unique bases are for the revisits.

Hey guys, I was looking at the order page for Kabuki Honda and I have another stupid question.

On the page, it says "PRE-ORDER BEGINS MONDAY SEPTEMBER 22nd @ 3PM PACIFIC
ORDERS PLACED BEFORE THEN ARE SUBJECT TO CANCELLATION".


I don't really understand what this means. How could I ever buy the statue before they put it up for order?

If the store post the statue and starts selling it at 2:57PM or something like that, are they telling me to ignore it and not try to buy the item until 3? I don't really get it...

I think it means, if you start trying earlier, even if it does allow you...any orders with a timestamp of BEFORE will be void. So even if it allows you to, you should wait.

I am guessing though. As my only attempt was with Gouken and it was PayPal being stupid that made me take longer than needed.

Sure others will have more advice though.

Think the reasoning would be, the PO time is advertised to the public, and with some of PCS's edition sizes, if people are allowed to order before the advertised time, then those showing up on time might find things sold out already.

Yes that's exactly it, because they have put it up a bit earlier often in the past.

In the past the only stipulation was that if you ordered before 15:00 PST you wouldn't qualify for a so called "AP". I got Dhalsim, Barlog and Gouken around a minute before the official time.

Wish the Kabuki had a 150 ES instead of 250. If I ever get tired of it I think it could be hard to move and the lower ES would make it that much more special.

I would think 250 is still pretty low.

I think Kabuki will sell out first and be more sought after down the road.

Some of the collectors with good computer hacking skills have managed in the past to somehow place a pre-order through paypal days before the actual pre-order start date.

I dont know much about computers so I dont know how they do it, but I always cancel them.

Yeah but I just got a Brand New Konqueror Shao Kahn for less than retail and it was limited to just 150.

The Kabuki is just so wild looking. Definitely will make a spalsh in any collection.
