I could've gotten this for ~$80 a month ago, but I waited too long...Now I'm sad.

 

[marker2037]

$80 bucks?!?!?! Silly man...

 

[plasmid303]

Yeah I know.

AmiAmi had it about a month ago for ~$70-80 with a 50% shipping discount. I don't know what I was thinking. I shoulda jumped on it immediately, but it was over and gone before I knew it.

Here's the link if anyone wants to keep track of it in case they restock: https://www.amiami.jp/shop/?set=eng...-0866&template=default/product/e_display.html

If you wanted to set up a jidaigeki Star Wars cast he's the perfect Luke to Goemon's Han. My DID Date Masamune is Vader of course with Saizo beinga young Vader/Anakin to Chacha's Padme. It's all coming together!

Website says they have 4 in stock now. Grabbed one. See how it goes.

So now there's 3 left... They did restock once (they may do it again once this batch finished)... for your info it was at 55% off... and for the past week at 60%...

There one thing about @m!@m!... they like to export paper (for figure/box protection) to you.

Goemon body has almost the same size as any other TrueTypes body. IMO. Latest body from TTL would be the best option as alterative.

Goemon....True type narrow shoulder with a fixed neck

They are no longer running the 50% EMS shipping discount they had during March and April, so it's not such a fantastic deal anymore, but still a good one.

You're saying their shipping packaging is poor? Every time I receive packages from them it's in a sturdy box with lots of packing paper. More than enough to keep the items safe. Only thing is it does make the box heavier, making the shipping cost a bit more. I wish they used styrofoam bits.

Nope.... As you said yourself they use lots of paper for protection, hence exporting paper to you as well (and adding weight).

Though they dropped the 50% EMS off... they added registered SAL (and ordinary SAL) and deducted about 900 yen.. (might be even cheaper, depending on your location).

Being in Australia I always have to pay that rate for shipping anyway - so compared to ebay its still about $80 off.

 

[plasmid303]

Sorry, I was speaking as a spoiled American. But that EMS discount would've saved a lot for you guys too.

It's still an excellent deal on a great figure.

SAL is good, but I don't like the long wait and the fact that it's untrackable.

Choosing Registered SAL instead of EMS should cut about another 800 Yen off shipping.

Registered SAL is traceable... it's just 300-400 yen more, than ordinary SAL

p.s. they dropped the 700 Yen handling fee for SAL packages

 

[plasmid303]

Then it is still an excellent deal. Now there is no excuse for me not buying this figure, except that I'm broke after getting a bunch of other HT figures last week.

 

[theghostinside]

does anyone know about how much shipping would be to the u.s.??? i know the figure comes out to about $80, but didnt know about shipping.

I'm in California, and the last time I bought an item that was about the same size and weight as an HT box I was quoted about $37 USD (without the EMS 50% discount).

That would be 2290 yen with registered SAL (around USD 25). give of take 100 yen (usd 1.1)..

The shipping box and contents is about 1.7 - 1.8 kg....

Goemon....True type narrow shoulder with a fixed neck

 

[bandito]

Back on sale at amiami.jp for 65% off (from 55 to 60, now at 65%)... (more or less actually like 50%), but unfortunately only will be ship by EMS (slightly too big for SAL).... 7 left... these goes fast..
