Hey all

Just wondering if anyone has had any issues importing the Justi-toys MP-05 upgrade kit into Melbourne, will customs be a hassle?

Cheers

I bought my MP-V kit from Transfigure toys and its fantastic. They also come with Die cast metal leg plates to replace the native MP-V ones and it adds much needed weight and stability to the figure.

The size of the upgraded alt mode is also incredibly large and it makes it look much more realistic and therefore even more ilegal. It also adds a launching mechanism (plastic pelletes) which would make it even more controversial.

i was very impressed withit but I suggest that you don't import it from over seas as it looks more like real life weapon accessories than a toy.

+1 from Transfigure
A little bit more from a local store but no risks from customs.

First I have heard about the metal plates.
Interesting ..

Pitty I broke the barrel of mine and still can't transform into Alt Mode.

Potentially they could be. It is illegal to import replica silencers and stocks.

You could try emailing HLJ.com with the appropriate details and requesting a replacement part from Takara.
