New Zvezda Star Destroyer Model kit

They are with no box though. I wonder what is up with the no box ones popping up. Something to do with their licences??
 
When I get something without box it's usually a test shot. Can be the standard kit/sprues already, but box might not be finalised.
 
Probably will fit into a smaller box that way to make shipping cheaper. Max I wanted to spend on this was $150, and that's what I got mine for so I'm happy with my decision. I'm sure eBay will be flooded with these once it's released.
 
These are starting to come through thick and fast, now.
There are now 5 different listings on THAT auction site, and it seems with each new listing, the price is getting lower!

I noticed that as well. The first guy has also removed 'preorder' from his listing.

Yeah, looking at some of the quoted delivery dates, it would suggest some of the sellers are ready to post.

Could we see these landing on door mats before Christmas?
 
Some are saying shipping on the 15th. Cheapest so far is $99 and $9.99 shipping. When you do order make sure you know whether it comes with the original box. Some do some don't, if the box matters to you...
 
"That" bloke on eBay is selling one for $250US now. I hope nobody gives into him. Hes just a scalper.

I'm not calling you out specifically Ben, but I will say there are probably people out there who will complain about this guy being a scalper but say nothing about the rich elite robbing the world blind because "it's just business." It's an interesting cognitive dissonance to me. The scalper put it at $250 because SOMEONE will pay it. Supply and Demand.
 
I know they are having no trouble moving these kits but if you have the option for "make an offer" don't counter offer with $1.20 off. Not like my original offer was awful (was just looking to offset a portion, not all, of the shipping costs)

Lol. Dude I have a severe hatred for the world elite.But this isn't the place to discuss it. I just don't want to see fellow collectors paying huge when they can wait a few days and get it for a great price.;)

Indeed, I can understand that, but for some model makers out there, $250 is pocket change and they'll gladly pay it without breaking a sweat. Same thing happens with new Xboxes or Playstations when they hit the market.
 
That one will probably sit there for a while and then he will drop it in accordance to what others sell for. He may have hoped that everyone would sell high. But, that's the price you pay when trying to make a buck, or ruble, in this case.
 
Delivery is estimated between Jan. 24th and Feb 9th. I have never ordered anything from Russia before, so your guess is as good as mine. I figure at least three weeks, but would not be surprised if it is longer. Trust me, the day it arrives I'll have pictures up.

Your not going to get it any sooner the longer you wait. Shipping times will not speed up at all. You may get it quicker from Germany when ROG gets it, but then your waiting until April at least to order from Germany. Then you have to wait for it to be shipped from Germany!
 
You probably wont see them in regualr online shops as it's sale is still restricted to Russia, Just like Bandai is restricted (was actually) to Japan. You're probably still going to be ordering from somewhere in Russia.
 
I dunno. If an online hobby retailer gets it soon, I bet I can have them ship it to me before late Jan.

Doubtful, as far as any of us have been able to determine, Zvezda doesn't have rights to sell in the States.

However: Anything is possible... if it happens.
 
Mine has shipped too. Estimated 2 to 4 weeks for delivery... however this is the peak holiday period... so who knows.
