[Taibhse]

All of these were waiting for me at home from UPS.

Building my Iron wall of armor I suppose...

Excellent choice of figures!

Dude tell me about it! I bought mine from Toys2 as well, I even got a $20 discount from the original price because I buy stuff all the time from there. The imploding $CDN isn't making this hobby any easier now.

And it's not to say toys2 ripped us off. They just sell at full retail price plus the damned HST. So I can accept that. I just wished I found amiami's deal earlier. Toysonfire has a few items selling at a fair price thru amazon. And the best part is, its amazon prime-eligible so quick free 2 day shipping guaranteed. Bought my silver centurion from them last week.

When buying from these Japanese stores, do they add in their paypal fees for international buyers?

 

[tinlunlau]

No. They just convert the original price to your local currency. You can use xe.com to get an exact idea of how much it's gonna cost you.

Your local bank doing the conversion usually offers better rates than paypal..... so pay in JPY through Paypal...

Seems a lower quantity was coming into the UK my order got cancelled and pre-ordered it 4th of Feb 2014. No matter found a UK seller in ebay only cost me a tenner more. Just another example how hard it can be to get the items if you don't import or pre-order right off the bat.

Love the handle on the Igor box but surely you could've taken a more interesting picture too? Boxes are about as interesting as cardboard. lol I got mine from CDUK too..., definitely the place to shop for the UK.

 

[Medusoid]

The box for Igor is massive! It looks like it could be a box for a large scale statue.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

You guys in the UK are getting this...now...before me?

I had family and work commitments, which basically means the wife telling me I did'nt have time to unbox them?

Hope to remove them from the packaging Friday pm.

I have to have the patience of a Saint!
