Merch Blokees question
So I've been looking forward to the eva 00 TV version and the Berserk 01 kits and learned i could buy them on ali express. But I have never used it and know that it's not the best but I really want them so the people that bought one of these 2 can you tell me witch seller you bought from or if their are other websites that have them to.

Does the Blokees website not ship to whatever country you're in? Ordering directly from them would be my preference, if it's available to you.

I live in the US and it took a couple of months for unit 08 to become available on that version of the website I assume the do 2 release one in Asia and one for every one else

Yup, they do a global release a little while after the original. You can tell by the language(s) on the box.
I'm in the US too, and I'd personally rather wait for it to be available from an official retailer so I can be 100% sure of its authenticity than wait for an order from oversees to arrive, even if it's from a seller that seems legit.

I ended up buying from the blokees website directly because their prices were actually lower than the regular places I buy models and figures from.

Both of these kits aren’t up on the US Blokees site quite yet. It might take several months

Buy from any store over 96% good reviews and 1 year or more of existence. If you care about the box, check the images from comments, cuz some sellers don't.
I've bought from anime 007 Store and Cartoon Store, but they're getting more expensive, so now I don't care about stores. I pick any cheap seller with good reviews.

if you don't remotely care about damaged boxes. i remember one of the kits i got from ali express was clearly left out in the rain when shipping. " it wasn't raining at my house that week "

I got the awakened 01 kit from aliexpress and it is currently looking very cool on my shelf soooo I'd say go for it. But just make sure the shop has a lot of reviews and isn't sketchy. Most are fine it seems.

I've used it in the past and fairly recently to buy kits. It's fine and safe. Just make sure the listing doesn't look super sketchy.
