They are some of the best articulated and best painted figures you can get at this scale.

They are also by Bandai/Tamashii Nations, which is a Japanese company. This means you will need to import them/buy them online. There are plenty of online shops to buy these figures. AmiAmi, HLJ, HobbySearch and are useful for pre-ordering. However, Mandrake (https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/) will be better for figures that are already out. If you stalk the site you will usually get some great deals. Note: Some figures are exclusives. In other words you need to seek the help of a middleman. For this reason, the prices will be much higher.
My option on these figures? Worth it. They are incredibly detailed and highly articulated. Probably the best of the best in the 1/12th scale. However, some characters won't get made unless Bandai gets their licence.
What kind of site is that and do they ship to the US?

Its basically a massive online store that, for example, sells opened and new/unopened toys. Its great for Figuarts. I've heard that opened items are still in great shape. The staff checks the quality of the item extensively before putting it up on their stores. The prices will vary since it may depend on the popularity/demand/rarity etc. of the item. And yes, it can ship internationally, including the US.

I'm finding it really hard to make an account. I have to translate it to English and I don't know what some of the things for address are.
Ended up finding a War Machine Mark 1 for $100 USD so that's another one down... By the looks of it, War Machine, Cap, Thor, and Iron Man Mark 45 will all arrive the week of my birthday.
So how long does it usually take for a figuart to go up for pre-order after being unveiled, like the Black Widow or Hawkeye? And the time between pre-order and release isn't a year like Hot Toys right?
Sometimes, sadly, a prototype will never get released.
[...] Sometimes the entire website crashes (See the Tiger and Bunny incidents).
This. Hobby.
Ever seen 500pcs of a vinyl figure getting sold out online within 10 seconds?
If anyone's still looking for a Mark 1 War Machine, here's where I got it for $100:
Bandai S.H. Figuarts War Machine. Warehouse Found. - S.H.Figuarts
Don't know how many they have left, but I just got the notice that mine has shipped. Everywhere else it's sold out and I see it on eBay for a lot more
