I honestly don't mind the thighs at all. imho Hasui did a wonder job incorporating combiner kibble into individual bots.

That's going to be expensive to import. Fark gst changes and volumetric shipping!

I was on the fence on ordering,and so had been waiting for a local release (even if a high premium) or a decent review to shift me into impulse buying. I wondered about the heft and weight of it all, but you just talked me into a sale now Goktimus, gosh darn it.

Anyone know of a retailer with a cheap shipping option and guaranteed stock?

I have just looked up total cost, including shipping:

Ohmyprimus = 285 SGD = 282 AUD
Robotkingdom = 254 USD = 339 AUD
tfsource - 220 USD with shipping discount/ 295 AUD
big bad = 233 usd (over 22usd in gst)/ 312 AUD --- would have been cheapest if before July 1
Toydojo = 238 usd = 320 aud
Megalopolis toys won't provide shipping costs on preorder
eBay seller in hi 209 usd plus 19.99 shipping = 239usd / 320 aud
Little toy company - 200 aud, but no guarantee of stock but they claim they will refund if they cant deliver , est. September release, so will be sold out internationally
Amazon.com taunting me with 159 + 39 usd shipping to Australia.... but then cart says we don't ship to Australia

Can anyone point me to a cheaper option before I panic buy?
Oh and if Gerry Harvey dies under suspicious circumstances, I am going to need an alibi
I bit the bullet and ordered from Ohmyprimus last week. Am just waiting on the shipment now. It ended up being about $290 with Paypal's conversion rate, which is almost the same as the prices out of Taiwan/Hong Kong incl. shipping on ebay.

Toybotsimportz has their second batch of pre-order still open for $279.
