@jinkazama done! PO'ed today! Was planning on doing it later on but found out payments will start next March so it works out for me.

Prime 1 seem to have gone all in on the high ES and price tactic sadly. But they regularly seem to reduce the former. They obviously expect this one to be the most popular, but I wouldn't be surprised if that ES comes down a bit before release. Especially given the relatively large price increase which seems hard to justify.

I am not a fan of any of those tactics. Saving what they think is the most popular for last, hiking it $100, leaving the duplicate base, and giving no bonus either is really poor. I wouldn't mind a couple of those, but all is kind of hard to take.

Lowering an ES after the fact is also not good. I have already been through that with them. I figured a piece would be around a while at their stated ES and ordered other pieces only to have them cut the ES with ZERO warning and instantly sell out.

My waitlist just converted for the closed mouth version at Prime. Wasn't really expecting that considering the low 100 ES

Probably a couple cancellations when the attack pose was released from those who couldn't get both.

Hi guys!

After watching videos and reviews of this piece, I could not resist and ordered the open mouth one without the bonus piece which is on a waitlist. I'm amazed that this statue is still available considering the price and how good it is.

Should be here between end of October and end of December....

My first Jurassic Park Dino...My first Prime 1 piece... still on the WL for Rotunda....

Cheers

Excellent choice! You're going to love the Open Mouth

Oooo.... Got my shipment notice today... I'm super excited... My first Prime 1 piece

But I'm curious... The tracking says it is coming from CA not Japan, which I'm happy about because it will arrive in 5 days, but I had the impression all shipments came from Japan, thus the reason it would take up to 3 months to arrive for economy shipping.

Is this normal for P1 or maybe this item is coming from a retailer rather than P1 Studio?

Got my shipping notice for my Mosa today. Says the same but that's not accurate. It should ship from China, not Japan and when it arrives to the states, shipping date will update.
