So someone mentioned the polls were closed to vote for the next fogures...does that mean we will get the results soon?

i dont know if they let us know, it was a survey though... if it was just a poll you could just click on "view results" and bam. the only one you can see the results from atm is of MMPR with zeo taking the lead by 1% more than some other one. because that one is still open. now if only they could close that one now and put up a poll for dbz we could check it >

Also, I can't make Frieda stand on his own without the stone with have inserts or the clip, as the tail are too heavy. Anyone feeling the same way?

 

[Big Deano]

Well im happy with the power rangers poll lol; Zeo is my favourite series bar MMPR, though a poseable ninjor from alien rangers (kakurangers) would be nice! /offtopic

Anyone know by any chance when will bbts actually get the sdcc piccolo figure in stock? Thanks

My DBZ collection so far. I don't have a display area yet so they're all in their boxes. Still waiting on Frieza and SDCC Piccolo then decide if I should sell the 1st Piccolo along with 1st Gohan.

U have the first gohan too? Not in the picture . Are u going to sell piccolo ?

They may run out of their order amounts before that happens, he may end up being preorder only so better to do that just incase.

I will in any case... But I think he said (s)he'd too.

Guys, need your input - should I order from toy arena or bbts for international shipment? Dont wanna get hit by custom tax

 

[Big Deano]

Hmm, well toyarenas ebay was quite cheap for shipping and I never got import charges when I used them, but since the last time I used them I think they may have stopped avoiding import charges due to customs; bbts are more expensive shipping wise but they do have an option to mark down as gifts etc. It depends on preference really.

 

[Hydeous]

Any of em willing to mark down low value?

I know bbts mark the value accurately though, as Big Deano said, they will label as a gift if requested. UK customs ignore that and charge you anyway as the company logo is all over the packaging I've never used toy arena.

Ebay ended up being cheapest for me. Found it for $75 and they agreed to reduce the value for shipping. Good luck!

Toyarena on ebay always marks down, made bout 4 big purchases there now. I ordered my second sdcc piccolo from toyarenas site this time because it was cheaper, hope they mark down there as well.:/ (I live in Holland).

I dont think bbts marks down, highly doubt it.

yeah exactly. I cant tell at all toyarena packages are from toyarena, they know how to get their stuff through know wa am sayin.

 

[Hydeous]

Toy arena it is then. Thanks

GL, Im curious to see whether my toyarena site package was handled 'appropiately".

I did find tracking is harder if you go to Toyarena's site directly. Tracking via ebay is usually more easy. And you get ebay buyers cred. But in this case Piccolo is like 20$ more on ebay.:/ They told me it's because of ebay fees.

Anyone else that has Piccolo having trouble with the torn cape piece for the Folded arms? I can't get it in the pegs to save the life of me, and when I do then Piccolo's head won't go on....

Uh no didn't have anytrouble, but you gotta real pry 'm in there, look on the bottom side to see if all the lines match up well near the pegs.

It's also soft plastic, so if you blowdry it a bit on hottest setting it'll be really pliable in no time.

Btw, check out this custom repaint AnthonysCustoms did (same guy as the frieza review I posted a page back). It's so sick, it looks so much like the one Tamashii released now, a year later.
