Same for other stores, including Konami online.

They're really milking out the delay now.

Konami's REALLY clearing out things, which has me a bit worried. For the third anniversary, they're offering package deals on several shinkis at once along with a few post cards.

But they are clearing out the old items; The first two naked bodies that do not sell in the konami store. The new next generation mms naked bodies are still konami store exclusives. So may be they are clearing out to make space for the next generation mms figures.

No, not the limiteds. Just random odd combos...

Here's a list:

Darn. They know how to annoy people.

I'd be curious to wait on the second sets (particularly weapon ones - I'm looking at modding something), but then...you know, it'd be so much easier to order from an online store other than Konamistyle. It's great they're offering so much for a discount, but there are more duds than winners for it to be worth it with some. Maybe this is a good sign maybe this is a bad sign...something odd is going on :/

Yeah, it does seem odd. Hope they aren't going out of business or something. I don't even see them at events anymore. If they won't be at this summer wonderfest then I'll be worried. Max Factory and CSG are dominating the industry.

I agree on that account. Wave 11 plox!

I doubt they're going out of business - remember they have quite a hold on the gaming sector. It might be that they're trying to bring up stocks due to the finanncial crisis - and they're sick of scalpers getting stuff for triple the price.

I don't think i've ever seen Konami have a decent showing at a hobby event. >.>

Maybe they just prefer to release news on their own/through hobby mags?
