I'm sure he'll get to you shortly Dale.  I bet he's a busy fella at the moment.

How far ahead is Japan in terms of time?  I know it's the other side of the dateline, but I can't remember where it runs against Australia.  I remember Australia being around 16-18 hours ahead of us, so they're probably shipping the 25th or 26th there, but it's only just the 25th here.

Yep, Ryo got back to me and I just have to send my information or he can look up my new orders for my CC information.

Will this do Brent:  Current local times around the world

According to my e-mails from Ryo, he's in Yanagibashi, Taito-ku, Tokyo so Tokyo would put them about Thursday @ 12:40  pm. 17 hrs. I think.

Well the Series 5 madness should begin in earnest tomorrow. I might get some master cases in tomorrow or Saturday, so we will probably know the chases by this time tomorrow. I guess they will be a blue Snag, plus 2 others.

Hopefully people won't buy 98 sets of the TRU sets this time around and let some us other punters have a few. As it is a good chance that they lost money last time, I don't think it'll be happening again.

 ヨーダ 2/12
ルーク 4/12
レイア 1/12
アクバー 1/12
ガンナー 3/12
スナグル 1/12

Anyone know what that says?
I got it from slave1 forums in the series 5 thread.

Good luck with the TRU set! I don`t think it will get scooped up like
that again, like you said.
I remember, I think honorious, had 60+ of them, heh

Those are ratios for the series by the looks of it. I can't get any translation on bablefish.  :-\

Yoda 2/12
Luke 4/12
Leia 1/12
Admiral Ackbar 1/12
Imperial Gunner 3/12
Snaggletooth 1/12

I reckon the chases will come from the Gunner, Yoda and luke boxes, if this is correct.

If there is one, could the chase from the Imperial Gunner box be an Imperial Tie Pilot? That'd be cool. Maybe an Imperial Officer.

Hmmm, if correct, that means no blue snag?
Let the games begin!
Thanks Simon!

Good to see the army builder might come heavy packed again, and I could
use more than 1 Yoda/Luke for displays, so the breakdown looks pretty good to me.

We'll see for sure what the ratios are tomorrow. I think that they will make the Snag a higher ratio. Also there hasn't been a 2:12 ratio since the Cantina Band Members in Series 2, that turned out to be 2 different band figures. These ratios could be speculation.

Here is the whole quote from the post:
 ショップの方からの情報ではこのようなアソートのようです。
違っていたらスミマセン 
 
ヨーダ 2/12
ルーク 4/12
レイア 1/12
アクバー 1/12
ガンナー 3/12
スナグル 1/12
 
このアソートが確かならシークレットは
ルーク、ガンナーですね・・・?

Not sure if I`m allowed to post links to other forums here...
It was the slave1.jp forum though. I just saw a post about the TRU set also.

Someone who is better at Japanese might want to correct me, but I think it says that the poster got the info from a shop and that he thinks that the figures are packed in the ratios that he listed. Then he wonders what the chase figures will be if this is the case.

Sounds like he is just speculating.
