Bottom line for Takara products is the cheapest prices are from Japanese sites like HLJ and others. You buy from outside Japan and the prices start to sky rocket.

Have looked at robot Kingdom but u go to pre orders and it looks like they want u to pay upfront,

That's correct. Item + shipping upfront. Stores like HLJ however, only request payment once the item is in.

^This. HLJ and AmiAmi are both based in Japan, so you're getting the toys directly from Japan to you.

Amazon Japan is also a cheap and reliable source if you have access to a Japanese residential address (they don't ship toys internationally; but they do for books!). AnimeExport seem to have good prices too, but as has been mentioned, they require upfront payment. I used Robot Kingdom once, back before they switched to being PayPal only. I found them to be ultimately reliable, but incredibly slow.

I would personally recommend AmiAmi and HLJ.

But amiami is like sold out 95% of the time when release for pre order?
I happen to find hobby search stock in more and restock sometimes .
Hlj is one of the most reliable and best service so far.

AmiAmi's a joke & i don't even bother looking there anymore.
They only seem to get 3 of everything & you can only find out the status of some items only after you've clicked on them. It's annoying when you see something that you like only to find out it isn't available.

I reckon they have the most traffic. I was able to get one mp exhaust from them before they got sold out.
