Vanilla & Chocola 1/7 Scale Figure (NekoPara) - Native

Native announced a delay and will not be released until April I don't know how this will effect Fakku's shipment. I assume this will push Fakku's release back to May or June. The shop still lists January for release date

Yeah it'll be delayed for us too, we just haven't updated the date on the listing yet.

Thanks for the update, I know all my orders from good smile got pushed back 2-3 months. Wasn't sure how many items in the shop would be effected.

Good news!

11.08.20 is the date of release for Japan, bad news is that this blog's instructions could use translation into English, Google Translate did some tragic translation.

These will be my first full scale figures and I didn't know it's so complicated to put them together. ^^"

Expect about a month or two delay for the US shipment. Maybe more due to COVID-19.

Well, it's October now. Any word?

Now it's November, any news on when they are planned to start shipping?

It has now been like 2 years since I ordered them...

I guess our figs got caught without visa and deported :/

I wonder what kind of shipping Fakku choosed, must be a dude walking/swimming from Japan.... Seen other american people have their nekos for like over 1-2 months now...

I understand there is delays but this is getting ridiculous now...

And I live in Sweden, (Native doesn't ship here, thats the only reason I did buy it from Fakku...) so they may arrive... hmmmm next winter maybe?

Since there is 0 updates...

People just started getting their figures from Nippon Yasan Friday and Fakku gets their shipment after them so we should be about 2-4 week before Fakku gets theirs sent out.

having no clue how fakku actually procures their figures, here's my best guess at what might happen...

if they simply bulk order things straight from native itself, we probably won't be seeing these cuties shipped for quite a while, as native only ships overseas through EMS (a decently fast delivery service). EMS is unavailable right now to the US due to the pandemic, and since cases are scarily accelerating again, i see no way EMS will ever be available until spring 2021. HOWEVER people over at MFC, a figure collecting database, are getting messages that native is switching over to FedEx for US shipments (about 3-4 days ago). if that's true, we could be seeing them sooner.

again, this is entirely dependent on who fakku ordered from. a middleman could get them quicker or not but idk. anyways, i'll be patient like always.

I think Fakku actually uses a distributor for their figures, so when they get their figures in and can ship them out is dependent on their distributor.

Any news? It's December now...

Hey all!

We just received our shipment of the Chocola 1/7 Scale Figure (NekoPara) - Native and Vanilla 1/7 Scale Figure (NekoPara) - Native to the warehouse yesterday. It's challenging timing, since we're working on Black Friday order fulfillment right now as well. But we're working on packing both the Black Friday orders and these figure pre-orders, since we know ya'll have been waiting so long for them.

As usual, if you have any specific questions about your pre-orders or need to update any order information, please email us at store@fakku.net and we can help you more there.

Take care till then and stay safe!
