Do pre-orders of Takara products automaticly come with coins or not always?

Hi, Do pre-orders of Takara products automatically come with coins or not always?

I guess I shouldn't say "always" since I know Agesthreeandup doesn't, but for the Japanese web sites, do you get a coin? For example, for amazon if it is sold and shipped from amazon.co.jp, or the other major sites do you get a coin?

Thanks!

If you order from a Japanense website direclty, then no, you won't get a coin.

Coins are with the "Asian" (IE everywhere else other than Japan) releases.

Here is something important to know: The coin IS NOT made by Takara. It is made by Hasbro Asia. So a true Takara release will never have the coin and thus that version has to be purchased by either a chinese seller or someone who has that version.

You really have to check the listing. If you order from a japanese store, then it wont come with a coin. But if you buy from RobotKingdom.com or a northameircan retailer who says it comes with the coin, then you will get the coin.

Thanks for that info, didnt realise the Takara didnt have coins and Hasbro Asia and exclusive releases were the source of the coins. Best to ask and confirm, since the coins have some value to them it should be listed in the sales information. BBTS has a few on sale on their own it seems as well.
