Rui Silva 5 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Hi all, My Shinden arrived today, I paid Euro 27 for custom taxes, the kit is great, one more for the "to do in the near future" shelf! Rui silva Link to post Share on other sites
Rich S. 0 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Just a heads up on a problem I encountered while attempting to order some of the extra parts for the Shinden. I was able to navigate the site and get the items into the shopping cart but when I attempted to place the order I was informed that the items cannot be sent overseas. Has anyone else tried to order and, if so, what luck did you have? I would be disappointed not to be able to get those parts. Rich S. Link to post Share on other sites

LSP_Ray 7,900 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I ordered a pair of kits plus the extras (wheels, metal gear, jet engine) from the Japanese fellow who had several on eBay. Figured why pay shipping twice? Hopefully they have shipped already, we will see. Link to post Share on other sites
Rich S. 0 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Mustang137's email has solved the problem- just placed an order that was accepted. Thanks for the great work! Rich S. Link to post Share on other sites

LSP_Ray 7,900 Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Got my two kits today with the additional resin wheels, metal gear, and jet engine coversion. Looks good, although not sure if the extras are worth the cost! Look for a review in the future. Link to post Share on other sites
DougN 522 Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 The Japanese guy I got mine on eBay from says they are indeed sold out. Cheers, Doug Link to post Share on other sites
kalashnikov-47 649 Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Hopefully "sold out" means "just for now, we'll have more later." I'd like to get one, but I'm not paying almost $200 they've been going for on ebay. Link to post Share on other sites
