Has anyone who bought one online seen a shipping notice yet?

Jeff, Do you tend to glue your Bandai kits together or keep 'em snap? Would you say the B-Wing could benefit from any glue and putty, or it's more or less good to go out of the box?

As I said, the only issue I saw was the rear section of the whole cockpit tube. That would benefit from glue and putty. The model in the photo was just snapped together quickly--in my experience once you squeeze everything together tightly there's very little in the way of visible gaps.
Yes, two days ago.
Did Bluefin not get distribution rights for all of North America? Last time I checked, that included Canada.
Just got an email from Bluefin cancelling my SDCC B-wing order. I had no problem making the order with shipping to Canada when the page came up. Reason given "can't ship outside the US"!
So anyone from Canada who ordered one is about to get screwed over. And I was just about to pull the trigger on a preorder from someone on eBay attending SDCC before bluefin put it up on their site.
I'm getting so sick of companies getting North American distribution rights and only shipping to the US.

It's amazing that they can mold detail inside the engine nozzles, especially at such a small scale. Small or not, this is a must-have kit.

Count your blessings I always say. And Bandai Star Wars kits are definitely a blessing! [emoji56]

Man I hope that diorama is gonna lead into a large Star Destroyer.
Even on their tiny models, Bandai use side-action mould technology for stuff like that.

Recently announced Anovos products also appear to be US only.
"United States; United States military bases, wherever located; United States territories and possessions, including Puerto Rico.*
Orders from territories not*listed above will be immediately cancelled & refunded."
I wonder if there is something going on limiting the distribution of new SW products.
Older Anovos products can still be shipped to many other countries around the world.

Shame that they don't add their technical names below the names anymore.
Wonder why they stopped doing that, it was a neat touch of detail
