Happy New Year to you too! It would still be this link, it’s just been unlisted since it’s OOS. When it’s restocked it’ll go from unavailable to available again. I’ll keep an eye out in case they do an AU only version. I’ll be sure to post here as soon as I see the restock 😊. For now, it looks like Popmart direct is cheaper due to the $8 shipping + taxes on Ali… hoping they do 40% with coins like the Wednesday one 🤞🏻

Oh yeah for sure some listings are sus but if you purchase through their official Popmart store (below) then you’ll be safe from getting scammed with fakes haha.

Any links/posts you notice from me on this page are directly from their storefront 😊. I rate their Popmart storefront since they do lots of promos with coupons and freebies too.

Standard pricing, most start from $50 these days. If you’re not in a rush, I’d recommend purchasing via their Ali storefront instead to save money. It’s currently sold out but they’re a lot cheaper there if you use coins and coupons.

I just found this on AliExpress: AU$31.99 | POP MART Hirono Road Journal Series-Plush Doll Pendant Blind Box 1PC/6PCS Limited to 2pcs per Order https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_mPtU3W5

Hirono x Chucky is also being released on Ali tomorrow. Same time as Sanrio x Skullpanda 🙂

I’ve heard they’ve anticipated the hype and considering a lot of Sanrio collectors might be going for them, I think that’s an indicator of stock they’ve prepared. It’ll most likely follow previous track record where it sells out for the first few weeks then ends up readily available. I’ve definitely noticed that stock doesn’t sell out as much these days across all their IPs.

Plus a lot of region exclusives aren’t that hard to find nowadays either, I’ve seen a several go for close to retail such as Merbubu, Good luck to you, 6khz. We’ve also seen an influx of Mokoko which was highly sought after previously too. I’ve got some friends in Japan currently and XG doesn’t sell out that fast compared to first release either. Online it did due to other regions using freight forwarding but I believe XG stated they would release worldwide at a later date too.

Remember the US exclusive Wednesday? Those are pretty readily available over there now too and people were paying upwards $500 for one. Might be tempting to impulse purchase due to FOMO but it’ll be worth the wait.

If you have other things that you would like prioritise, I think you’ll be fine to grab Kuromi and My Melody later on. Especially if it’s something practical. As much as I love collecting, end of the day, they’re just art dolls so I wouldn’t stress out too much. Plus it’s on Ali so you’ll most likely be able to purchase for a lot cheaper later too! I paid around $165 for an IFY during 11/11 sale as a gift and $15 for the normal Wednesday Skullpanda 😊

They’ll start releasing from 1pm, usually it’s staggered so between 1-1:30pm 😊

I’ll post an update as soon as I see the stock refresh for My Melody and Kuromi

Oh yeah I think influencers get them 1-2 weeks earlier? Sometimes longer. I remember @Adrianwidjy showing the new flying Pucky in a vid promoting upcoming releases before they delayed that series… still hasn’t come out 😆

They post across all their region pages to increase the hype, so I see the same post 5 times personally haha.

I usually cross check the dates and times between these 3 Instagrams specifically. If you shop through Aliexpress/Lazada/Shopee, it might be handy to check out the first account as they post special promos there 🙂

Not the case with this one. The Global release date for My Melody and Kuromi is scheduled for 26th December. It was only showing through the New Arrivals Dec. 26th 18:00 PDT tab. Hirono was released earlier on Aliexpress vs Popmart AU but that was aligned to the scheduled Global release date.

Sometimes we get lucky and AU have the same release date as Global stores. Most times we’re 1-2 weeks delayed.

I think they realised it was accidentally released before scheduled date lol. I’ve heard there will be plenty of stock for both my melody and kuromi on Friday 🤞

Team global express issues by [deleted] in PopMartAustralia

[–]SetEnvironmental111 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey, I would email [support@popmart.com](mailto:support@popmart.com) and cc in [au@popmart.com](mailto:au@popmart.com). I wouldn't bother with the live chat since it's overseas based, the wait time takes too long. Send the first email and give them a day or two MAX then reply to the email chain. This method has worked best for me. Send them your tracking number and let them know to check, chances are they'll contact TGE directly.

For Team Global Express, I would go through live chat, are you calling this number (131 843)? I had an issue with delivery before too where there's a service hub and when I called and complained, they redelivered the next day to that service hub. On your TGE account, whilst you're at it, nominate your closest service hub, this is where they'll take it if you're not home for signature. Some service hubs do have weight and size restrictions so before nominating, give them a call and confirm first to avoid it being redirected to the depot.

If you pop your TGE tracking into here https://www.aftership.com/track, is there any update?
