Brief Transformers report from Japan

[sanbot]

lord_zed, I am so envious of you!

when you say ridiculously expensive, what price range are we talking about here? so comparing australia with japan, would you say japan transformers are more pricey or less?

I'm thinking of going back to Japan one day, I had such good memories in akihabara even though I was really sick.

I'm thinking of going back to Japan one day, I had such good memories in Akihabara even though I was really sick.

Well frankly I don't recall, the new animated stuff was around 19000 yen, the older toys were probably not to badly priced all about $200+. Outside of Akihabara TF's were generaly cheaper than here I saw Nightwatch Prime for 5000 yen, and the few classics I found were cheap to.

I'm a rather scattered collector though an prefer to get bits and pieces of things, so I filled my bag with other japanese toys and Collectables as access to them out here is more limited than TF's.

But yeah Akihabara is great, Den Den town Osaka is to, not as fancy but cheaper. I definately wanna go back some day. Will have to post my aquistions in the non TF section soon, coupled with other things I've bought it's the biggest aquistion month ever, ouch my wallet says.
