You should try Robot Kingdom. A lot of us have started using them b/c they offer

a.) better prices
b.) cheaper shipping
There service is really good too and there's only been 1 hic-cup along teh way. It's not that HLJ is bad, it's just more expensive that's all. I used to use HLJ myself actually.

Shouldn't this be moved into the following thread?

Perhaps, Pulse.

skorponock78, please keep in mind this section is for Australian sightings. The links you give are for a Japan-based online retailer. By all means, highlight your findings, but make sure your posts don't generate false hope. Someone might see the subject line and think you found these guys in Target!

I've amended the subject (:

Their prices look good, but what are they like on shipping cost? Omega Supreme and Skylynx are BIG figures, after all.

I've found Robot Kingdom's shipping prices are better for large or bulk items... but HLJ's SAL prices for smaller items are much better!

The shipping time is also a factor... Last time I ordered from Robot Kingdom (registered airmail only) my item arrived in 5 days! HLJ can take a lot longer!

since this is a HLJ thread:

The rare revoltech ultra magnus is in stock at HLJ. No optimus prime though :(

The thing I'd like to say about Robotkingdom is that recently (probably due to that added demand from us aussies), RK have been pricing their stuff a lot higher than when I first started using them. A good source they may be, but they are certainly taking advantage of us like most other toy dealers/scalpers.

They're very good.

HLJ's SAL option is very cheap for small items BUT you have to wait 3-4 weeks sometimes. Recently, I just received my Revoltech (they're great) from HLJ and that was after paying mid April. Very slow.

An order I placed awhile ago was very large. I ordered a very sizeable box, about $450, worth of toys and shippign came to $80 odd. I was very satisfied. They communicate very well and look after you after the sale is complete too. So yeah I'm very supportive of them.

I do agree w/ Griffin tat they overprice some stuff. I you look at Movie Voyagers or Deluxes they definitely do. However, I don't really care b/c the final price once converted to AUD is still cheaper than we can et retail here on sale. Which though sad from an Australian viewpoint, is rather fortunate from a fan pov.
