Figuarts. They posted a picture on IG which has since been deleted stating there were more pre orders available. Now the Goku Black page on their website is down. Guess they're all gone.

Agreed on this. In fact, i'd even go as far as to say we need a new SSJ Goku (SSJ3 body with Warrior Awakening head and optional halo) and a new DBZ Future Trunks. The armour version was great and all, but I would love to see an updated sculpt for his iconic first appearance!!!
With these I think we'd be done with the 2.0 "upgrades". The Androids were flawless first time, and the Vegito & Ultimate Gohan didn't sell particularly well as 1.0's iirc.
They must be finalizing and receiving their orders from BlueFin. My Figuarts Goku Black's from Toyz haven't shipped yet...they must've either ordered some extra and/or had some cancellations...

I'm confused as to how Goku Black is selling out so quickly. Were there last minute pre-orders once the reservations were over or something?
Not sure myself. At least in the Ageless Geeks and Dragonball Z USA facebook groups I'm in, Goku Black was rarely talked about until this past week or so. Word got out that Amazon sold out and the hype really blew up in those groups.
I've seen a few nice customs with him already, from his faces being more sinister to him having a scythe. I'm going to have the dude make me 2 custom faces use I get one of my Goku Blacks in my possession.
I think this is the distributor orders to retailers, Angelo. A lot of the orders were finalized and then retailers probably “capped” the remaining preorders and Goku Black quietly sold out. Some retailers might’ve ordered just enough stock to fulfill preorders as well so they changed the figure to SOLD OUT virtually overnight.
Toy Dojo still has him for $65. I’ve ordered from them before with good experiences.

I know Bluefin had him at C2E2 and he didn't sell out. Then I go online and see all retailers are basically sold out of his pre-orders. So it had me confused. Has Amazon become the basis of what's becoming valuable? I imagine they would have the largest amount of stock compared to any other retailer for Bluefin.
Yeah, I've seen some pretty good customs. Did you know that the smirk face for Goku Black is able to be put in the Super Saiyan Rose hair mold? I saw it on Instagram and asked if it was a custom and the person said it was the same mold for the face.
The Scythe...I wish we had that. I'd love to see an official Tamashii Nations accessory like that.
If you don't mind, post the photos of the custom faces. I'd love to see what they come up with!
I have noticed that quite a few collectors wait until after the release to pick up the figure. Sometimes they are cheaper. I know since this wasn't a "proper" Goku release, retailers might not have been sure if it would sell or not too. Especially since it was a Web Exclusive. I'm glad to see him sell so well but it'd be disappointing to see collectors not being able to retain a unit or two.
I have heard good things about Toy Dojo too.

I just looked at my order. I preordered Goku Black back on September 24th. Hope Toyzinthebox ships soon.
The hype is crazy with this release. To be honest I don’t get it either. Feel like I should have ordered two. At least I got him for retail. People are paying crazy money for him. I’ve seen eBay sales for 130.
Angelo were you c2e2? You didn’t pick one up?
Hopefully this pushes the future trunks release.

The compatibility is true. The normal smirking face that the product comes with is compatible with the Super Saiyan Rose hair. I asked the person on Instagram for a video for confirmation and they were kind enough to send one. All normal Goku Black faces are able to be used with the Super Saiyan Rose hair and vice versa. (I'm surprised Fernando didn't repaint that first.) So if Tamashii Nations has any desire to release another version of Goku Black in the future, whether it's a Premium Color or SDCC Exclusive, they'll be able to repaint the faces. Honestly, I think the best alternative would be to include it with either Future Trunks or Zamasu since it's a very simple paint application.
If they played the game properly, they would include them with Zamasu. A character who may not seem like a guarantee sell but if it's used to also benefit a top seller like Goku Black, it would be a win-win situation.
I have a couple pre-ordered on Amazon and the line to get into the booth was kind of long so I decided not to purchase it. I probably should have because the anticipation is freaking ridiculous.
Future Trunks will be the next release after Bulma.
You can get him him from Toy-Ninja for retail still. They're based out of California and reliable.

Saw the pic Angelo. Awesome the face is compatible. Yeah, surprised Fernando didn't used that face and paint the eyebrows pink. I might I have him do that...hmm

Wow! The extra faces! Imagine if Tamashii went all out like that. Might actually justify some of the higher prices they’re creeping up to.
Not that I’d use the scythe though. Still, pretty damn cool. Looks like it’s segmented too, for ease of storage.
