[mbrown187]

How far away from Sendai are you? Or how far away are you from the troubled nuclear plant?

[hobbylink]

@mbrown187 We are about 6-8 hours away from Sendai and 3 hours away from Fukushima, we are all very safe.

[Alesia214]

[Femalechaos2011]

Oh man that's hell of big mess! Poor Gundam!!  The model of Gundam boxes spilling out by the Earthquake in March 11th, 2011. I'm glad noone's hurt.

Lol 0:07 and 0:08 *Box drops* "Jesus!" he thought it fell on him.

[GhostLaughingMan]

[Fitzthum1990]

I'm glad everyone there is safe, its unfortunate about the coastal cities though. Lots of prayers go out to them.

[TheDarkprime0117]

[Bullsi13]

Glad everyone is safe. Are there repairs needed? So that we can donate. I've already donated to japan through red cross but it would be nice to help you guys.

[ozgurozane]

[dank1tag]

i fell sorry for the person who had to pick up all those models

[TTTgundams]

was any gundam hurt?

[richfoub]

Wow, that is one LOOOOOONG earthquake. And I know earthquakes, I live in Christchurch, lol!

[TarlZaralka]

How far from the coast are y'all located?

[hobbylink]

@TarlZaralka Unsure but we are quite far thats for sure.

[TarlZaralka]

@hobbylink I was wondering because for it to still be that strong from the actual epicenter is pretty scary.

[thehutchcometh]

Wtf!!! How can u not feel like the world is ending in something like that!@

[Grievousnz]

Looks like you were all let off lightly compared to other people.

[hobbylink]

@Grievousnz correct.

[Mumfin]

damn niggah.

[SUKAPIZDETXBOCT]

NOOOOOOOO all the gundams

[FeelinGipper]

i hope there werent that many wreaked model kits or people.

[ghoufeee]

White americans in japan!?...Insanity!!

[garcondeplage]

Don't know y u were filming the building.. obviously can't see that moving.. should have shown the cars in the carpark bobbing up nd down

[gundammeister04]

whow!hlj got pwned lol. . .nice to kno evrything's alright, , ,wait, what happened to the pg's?

xD

[hobbylink]

@Jesipr ???

[shadow341524]

aww poor kits :(

[jjrudki]

Glad you're all well after the earthquake, I was worried sick until I saw your update on the website saying you were all fine. You gain a significant degree of trust when you're a buyer and I didn't really realize it until then.

Wish you all the best.

[Moonpray]

I can't believe what some people are writing here. You should be really ashamed. I'm glad that nobody was hurt.

[Heusdur]

Wow...scary.Why some idi...I mean people think this is fake? I think they spend so much time trying to blame this kind of things on something else than nature. Look inside your hearts then your pockets and see how can you help.....God or whatever your higher power might be bless you.

[JoeCoolFreeman]

Was anyone hurt?

[hobbylink]

@JoeCoolFreeman Nope everyone was safe!

[hobbylink]

@opinionated8 The tsunami in Sendai. HLJ is not located in Sendai.

[fjcaron]

I am glad everyone is okay, what is the disposition of employee's residences, and other family members. From one hobbyist to another, wishing all the best from San Francisco, CA. USA.

[dk7691]

what about the new tsunami model kit that includes godzilla?

[sandy93967577491]

this is faaaaakkkkkkkkeeeeeeeeeee

[hobbylink]

@sandy93967577491 There is always that one person......sigh.

[jjrudki]

@sandy93967577491 Retard

[conoreso]

@sandy93967577491 you really think these poor scared people would go the extreme and make a fake a video of the earthquake and trash there warehouse??? you stupid stupid ignorant twat

[IdeasRindestructabl]

What tough gal! She really maintained her composure.

[gabrielbeals]

OMG I thought the building had collapsed but that's the building's design

[pachekin24]

i can buy something right now or not becasue i dont know if are working the shiping companies or not

[hobbylink]

@pachekin24 Shipping never stopped.

[pachekin24]

i can buy something right now or not becasue i dont know if are working the shiping companies or not

[shepherdworld]

God bless you all!

[nchang227]

Hope the damage wasn't too bad.

[sassypantz33]

[mabaquiao]

[connectcrap]

Forget gundams, you people really need help there

[metagdp]

[hobbylink]

@metagdp We are a little too busy at HLJ to be making fake videos of an earthquake that caused so much damage to Japan and the people in it.

[HolyBoy141]

@metagdp its not ok its on the news its everywhere and people were freaking out so its not fake ur brother is stupid

[RezViper]

omg hobby you handled that very well. i'm impressed by the laughter i heard in the third minute, ms. pronghorn. i shit kittens when i was in the landers quake back in 1992 and that was only 7.5. i commend you.

[edvill82]

I'm glad everyone is alright. its a lot of mess but still thankful thats the only one, nothing serious. hobby link japan forever

[tranceotaku]

[Jennofthejungle49]

[tehPeng00in]

[mekkyvideo]

I'm glad you are all well, but I am very concerned about the situation of nuclear power plant in Fukushima!

I pray every day for the Japanese people.

I wish you better days, so much happiness and health!

greetings from Italy

[Sprocketman]

You guys were the first place I heard news of the earthquake.

Thanks so much for keeping us informed, you deserve major props for that and I'm super-glad you're all okay.

[goktimusprime]

HLJのホームページで地震の事件のレポートを読んで、皆様は無­事で本当に良かったです。皆気をつけてください。Primus keep you safe.

[6claws1ace]

wow im so glad everyone is ok and thank you for keeping us informed about everything i was wondering i you guys would do an update video showing the damages the warehouse took and interveiw some of the employees about there feelings and reactions about the earthquake and tsunami . would be very interresting and would set your customers at ease

[ienjoymodels]

heart goes out to everyone at HLJ.

[gundamUC79]

[spirtspear]

[Shimimadara]

[AnimeGuruma]

hobbylink, I hope that all the employees and their families are safe! I pray for you!

[derricf]

YOUR ALIVE!!!

[Maverick626]

you guys were very profesional about the situation , i´m glad t be one of your customers , wish you luck

[TitanXZero]

Glad you folks are OK! Looks like you all had a well thought-out and executed disaster plan.

[esurfer26]

Is there any damage?

[JPZAP2]

thats a heck of a video....glad to see everyone looks safe. seeing those server racks start to sway with hundreds of pounds of equipment in them, one of my worst fears working in the industry.

[MSGSlayer1]

Good to know that no one was hurt.

[wingzero2011]

Omg Is everyones family ok? Glad to see no one was injured please be carefully and don't try to rush the fixing I think everyone can wait a week or two just please stay safe.

---Connor NY

[MRSketch09]

That's a damn mess, but glad to see the building is still in one piece and for the most part everyone's alright. From what I have glimpsed from Culture Japans main guru... the shit hit the fan... and then hit five more afterwords and then it was lit on fire in Japan.

[kamenriderdouble79]

were the kamen rider items okay

[GundamFan89]

Kudos to your guy in charge in the grey turtleneck. Delegating tasks, keeping the business going! Way to go buddy!

[Koutetsujeeg]

So scary! I read on your site that everyone is fine. It's so strange to be worry about people I don't even know (And I will never meet). I'm just an Italian HLJ customer...but I was very scared for all of you. Empathy is such a strange feeling.

[gunblenotrstf]

nice to hear every ones alright but i hate those people out there in the newspapers joking about this and trying to be funny because this is so OMG and serious but nice to know you guys are alright and stryder prime commenting on this video is so awesome

[gunblenotrstf]

nice to hear every ones alright but i hate those people out there in the newspapers joking about this and trying to be funny because this is so OMG and serious but nice to know you guys are alright and stryder prime commenting on this video is so awesome

[sasukewolf2]

did the tsunami hit you guys? i hope you're all OK

[sasukewolf2]

GOD...i hope everyone was ok

[tukman65]

scratch n dent sale!!!!

[NaokiWOW]

I feel very sorry for damage of your merchandise. It must be very heartbreaking. Insurance for damaged property isn't easily available here..... I hope Ozawa-san, and Schot san are doing O.K.......

[timboprime]

Where in japan are u guys?

[chunlau]

Glad that you are all ok!

[0utstandingnonsense]

Terrified just watching, I would have just bolted to the door let alone bust out my camera

[mobiusZero2]

That was scary, I'm guessing the customers are going to complain their boxes they order is damage. It matters that everyone is safe

[hobbylink]

@mobiusZero2 Nope, we wont be sending out any damaged items. We have plenty of items in perfect condition to replace the very small amount that were damaged.

[rafys78]

Glad you all OK.

Look how well constructed building in Japan is. Through lessons learned, they manage to construct building that could withstand 9 scale magnitude earthquake.

[megas2468]

good to see that everyone in hobbylink japan is ok

[kamniks]

Happy everyone is ok and safe! looks scary!

[newtownards1]

hello,my heart goe,s out to these poor people all over japan,one day you have everything and the next day it is all gone,god bless,you all from,n.ireland.

[Toppervision1]

Very glad to see you're all ok. Yea, alot of re-organizing and you'll be back up and running. You all were quite lucky and I'm very glad you made it through safely.

[alextan96]

i'm glad that everyone at HLJ is k and safe

[PiratedComedy]

This is surreal to watch...it's like a movie almost...

I'm so glad you're all O.K. though.

[dhk09hru]

good to hear that all of you are safe and sound

[ZOHtube]

Thanks to God all of You are ok!

Good work and best regards, a Your italian customer.

A prayer for Japan people hurted from this terrible event.

[spaik007]

love the woman who is filming, and love the "holy shit" part

[Jerrid120]

Im glad you guys are all ok. I can't say the same for the entire Northern and Eastern Coast who got hit the hardest. We all need to contribute to help all the people who are tormented and suffering in Japan. May best wishes go to everyone who is in Japan and may the rescuers, doctors, police, and everyone else have God on their side to help them in the state of disaster.

[BlackAceX10]

just reverse the footage and everything is just as tidy as before the earthquake. Lol

but really, hope you're all okay, any casualties ? (humans and kits/toys/whatever)

[Hepathos]

wow, you guys have a GIANT store! I thought it's just a tiny japanese business.

[hobbylink]

@Hepathos Our warehouse is quite large, we have thousands and thousands of items in stock.

[Tendou1994]

glad the earthquake din break any building and tsunami din cover ur area....

[boeingnz]

Ahh all the gundam.

I hope your server didn't break.

[Barricade]

Hobbylink Japan - awesome. If you guys can stay that calm from an 8.9, I'd buy anything from you guys (and I have in the past), even stuff that got crunched from hitting the floor in that quake.

I'm still chuckling about Scott moving to save his Saturn 5 rocket display, over leaving, and it kept him from getting squished.

[ehakan2]

As being your customer nice to see everyone at HLJ is ok. So sorry for victims and their families.

[AgusLeoSutejaAlmark]

Thanks God everyone is okay :)

[GhostofCicero]

"Is that the biggest one you've ever been in?" "Naw, I've been in a lot of them, that one was kinda small." There's always THAT guy...

[AgusLeoSutejaAlmark]

Thanks God everyone is okay :)

[BryanMumble]

how about Maria Ozawa, is she ok?

[cryptology]

Glad that everyone is alright!

[AgusLeoSutejaAlmark]

Thanks God everyone is okay :)

[tc012009]

I'm relieved to hear that everyone is OK, it must have been a very scary experience.

The devistation caused by this earthquake is truly horrific, the people of Japan are in our thoughts and prayers at the moment.

Best wishes to all at HLJ.

[Eucep]

Best of luck to you all.

[SynthScience]

What a tragedy for japan. Great all you guys are ok. Japan since childhood has produced so many entertaining things from Mario to transformers. My thoughts are with you from a mad english gunpla fan.

[WingChroniam]

Syd picked up the camera at the end. We all can recognize his voice.

Thank goodness for your safety.

[likeits1985]

Please do not take this the wrong way. I am certainly glad everyone is OK.

But , before you ship out a model kit, will you be checking for damage to the plastic parts inside the box.

[hobbylink]

@likeits1985 We have already removed the damaged items from the shelf and they will be placed in a special upcoming sale.

[GohansRiceBall]

Wow that sounded so scary. Thanks for being brave enough to record it. Hope things work out.

[Pactagon]

Oh no! Save the model kits!!!!!

[LucyInWonderland89]

OMG I'm very shocked to see this video..I'm glad that you are all ok! here in Italy and in the rest of the world we pray for Japan!!

[hornetpalooza]

@LucyInWonderland89 According to your religion most japs are doomed to an eternity in hell since they are heathens. Two hands in action are worth a million clasped in prayer.

[shalom43]

@hornetpalooza You're full of crap. Get right with God.

[StrawHatLaw13]

I'm glad you guys are ok. Best wishes for everyone.

[enxiong]

Kunihiko!! So calm and cool! Hahaha!!

– Laurence, Philippines

[kevinkun]

Thank lord you guys are safe!!!

[Vza004]

I'm glad that the quake stopped at that. I wish you all at Japan a good luck even though it's a little late to say.

[FightersHigh]

My store has an account with you guys, I tried to contact Syd to see if everyone was alright. Glad to hear you all are ok!

-Chris R

[hobbylink]

@FightersHigh Syd is away today.

[raiser188]

[mobiusZero2]

@raiser188 why shes there?

[TRIvEDGE]

I dont see Scotts office at all

[hobbylink]

@TRIvEDGE Well his office was shown in the video at 6:22, his large book cabinet had fallen over onto his deck.

[acicon]

glad to see you're all safe

my inner nerd inside me is saying "ALL THOSE GUNPLA!"

[xm3ntos1]
