As written on Max’s Staff blog,
Due to overwhelming response, Maxfac will be re-releasing Suzumiya Haruhi 1/8 in April. Another 5000 will be produced. The first batch of 5000 will hit stores in February. Preorders start 2nd November at 1800 Tokyo time.
The dudes at Max are pretty chuffed at the shockingly crazed fanatic response but are apologetic over the confusion caused by the "5000 limited stock" line. Liars, I bet they planned it.
Ooh Amiami has run out of preorders already lol. Anyway I’m fairly certain everyone will get his Haruhi, so there really isn’t a need to rush. I have preordered mine long ago though.
ARRG. No problem. I still plan on “keeping” the 5 that I have coming
I HAVEN PREORDERED MINE. PANIC MODE.
pKjd… 5?! Damn.. that’s a lot.
Where did u preorder from! gah! i can’t find anywhere to preorder from
I wonder…exactly why is Max Factory making such a limited number of Haruhis, anyway? You think they’d pump out as many as possible to rake in the cash.
Luckily, I was able to snag an early bird pre-order from HobbyLink before they stopped accepting them.
@Shiru04: They like to make small runs so then when the demand is high enough, they can release just a few more into the market to keep interest high enough. Maybe.
Weiye looks pretty upset that he can’t find one…Should I start running around in a circle screaming OMG! NO MORE LEFT!!! ?
I don’t accept this blog post. Nonetheless, I did researched with Yahoo and I’ve found out you are right and I seemed to be thinking in the incorrect way. Continue producing top quality articles such as this.
