I thought this would be relevant: I just saw that Kotobukiya is selling some really cute America and Italy mochis!

xD I don't really get it, either, but I can read it just well enough to pick out the important bits (numbers, though, mostly), and decode whatever google spits back.

Well, it's not inconvenient so much as that the size of the packaging they need will make shipping from me too high for multiple people to join. Someone in America could send them out for maybe $10 total, but up here in Canada, every dimension over 12" bumps the price up like $15 extra. ;___;

That, and everyone would want to buy them separately. @__@
You need to purchase America and Italy together in one shot, and a lack of people ordering Italy would mean I can't afford to purchase as many Americas as everyone would want.
:/ He's always the absolute last to sell every time I do orders, and America's usually the first. So. Yeah.

Later on, I think I'm going to ask my service to contact the seller, though. ;u;
That's going to be the absolute fastest way to find out if there's an order limit, and such.

Well. Nevermind that. :<
Finally actually looking at the page to buy them... They're already long sold out.

But I'll look around, still~ If I ever see any, I'll let you know.

Thank you ^w^!

Well, as they are sold together and I really thought both are cute, I wanted to buy both =3!
Maybe if you could buy some, you can sell them together, and only sell them separately if two people agree to split the set or something like that...

I thought in the possibility of them have been sould out, but I found it strange because it was so fast xD! I usually check the Kotobukiya site almost every day and I opened this thread on the same day or in the following day (I can not remember) when I saw that they were being sold o.o'... I don't know if it was something special like "reservations only today!" ó.ò!

It seems that the release date is March 31, so I'll watch and see if they decide to open sales again! If I find something, I'll post here and let you know =)!

Thank you again ^o^!

I don't think sales will ever reopen; they never did for things like the Gakuen mini towels, and such. It's even less likely since these had a "Limited" run from the start. ;n;

BUT. They will more than likely show up on YJ and mbok after they're released. It's just going to be a matter of finding out how many were made, then hunting for them every single day.
;u; It took ages, but, well. I managed to find and buy a plush that was limited to only 500 copies, a year or two ago (And thanks to YJ, at least $250 below its running LJ value). So. It's possible.

Hi again ~

I don't know if this helps much, but I think you can still purchase them in one of the physical stores of Kotobukiya.

In this site: http://seaside-tears.sblo.jp/article/53434788.html they're talking something about the store in Akihabara...

How I wish I could understand Japanese T___T!

But I have no idea how we could buy directly from the store, unless someone who lives there could do it for us ^^'...

But anyway, like you said, we can always wait if anyone sells them in YJ!

Changing the subject, do you remember that Romano rubber strap? I'm still looking for him and for the first box xD! I'd rather buy the whole box + him, but the auctions ends so expensive ;u;! Do you think it is better to purchase them separately? But at least I got the second and third boxes with the special at a reasonable price ^.^! I had not thanked you before for this, so thank you ^w^!

... Fly to Japan!
Not that I can read that yet. Work computer won't display Japanese xD

Definitely separate for Romano D:
Animate doesn't seem to be restocking, and Animate's the only place that sold him.
I could look around for the box without him, though. YJ's got to have something...

... ;n; Jealous.
I still need Finland, Hong Kong, and HRE/Chibitalia.
But maybe my having all but Romano from the first set makes us even? ;u;

So, do you think there's still hope of getting these Mochis ;A;?

I look YJ from time to time, but it's difficult to find someone selling the first closed box; I found it a few times, but it still would be too expensive -.-'... so I guess I'll take your suggestion and try to get them separated; and it would be so nice if they relaunch the box and my Romano again ;3;!

Don't be discouraged, you only need 4/27 to have all of them =3! And it is not difficult to find someone selling Finland and Hong Kong in this community or in YJ! HRE/Chibitalia however, is somewhat more difficult ^^'...

Bah. Thought I replied. Sorry.

Yeah, there definitely is. Not via Kotobukiya or any actual "store", but. If I managed to find one out of only 500 copies of a plush, I'm pretty sure slightly more common things can pop up too~

It's all about hunting on YJ. I'll do it every day once the release date comes around.
