QFT :p

Wow, really?

It was always cheaper for me to get encores from hlj because robot kingdom charged anywhere from 16-32usd to post stuff to me when hlj was doing it for between 800 and 1500 yen. :) Plus I couldn't fault their packaging, really top quality. I havn't had anything yet sent directly from RK, but I'll find out when I get my seacons. :)


Oh yea, as been discussed about the gps thing, that would have been from too much of the colour material being added to the mix.

Japan Post is expensive with smaller packages. The best way to get cheaper postage from Japan is to order in bulk cos they charge less with bigger and heavier packages. :)

It's not HLJ's fault that former-PM Koizumi Junichirou privatised Japan Post during his administration. (-_-) Postage from Japan was a lot cheaper (albeit slower) before privatisation.

There are several personal factors involved but it all basically just boils down to money / priorities. I don't want to get to a point where I've over-spent and have to part with my collection. I'm in a good place right now with everything I want. I'm sure I'll be tempted by some of your sale items though :p

I'll still be active on the board and may buy a legends toy from time-to-time (looking forward to the G1 legends announced at Botcon), and I've still got MP Grimlock, Predaking, and Unicron on preorder so it's not all bad.

I'm sure you've put a lot of thought into your decision, glad to hear that you feel you're in a good place.

As for the stuff I have on sale, I saw you 'register' your interest. Will update with pics and prices tomorrow. I'm sure I can do something that works for you. :p

Glorious :D

I know I've said it before but, God that thing is beautiful. :eek:

That display stand looks very familiar. If that comes with Predaking :eek: and has a sound gimmick on it, I wonder what it would say. :rolleyes:

I think the display stand is the prize item from the 2010 promotion. It's a bit odd that it appears to be a prototype though, considering the stand was shown to be the same as that which came with 20th Anniversary MP Prime...
