    You do know he's a gun right? Customs stole/confiscated the previous Megatron, and unless you had a replica weapons permit license would not return it. Even WITH that permit they didn't release it until the day BEFORE they had to front to a magistrate.

    It's much safer buying it online from an Australian retailer like PC who ARE in Queensland and can import it hassle free
    On the lookout for MISB Headmaster Highbrow, Takara or Hasbro. I'm sure I could make you a sweet deal!

    Yep, lived through it, and I do have a replica license.
    Which brings us to where we are today...

    Even though Amazon Japan stopped selling to Australian addresses after the GST changes a couple years ago (and still don't sell to us, despite Amazon America altering their systems to sell us again), I've just noticed that the Amazon Japan site won't show items that they themselves can't ship to your country (based on your IP location if you aren't logged in). So I had to enter in a Japanese postal address (100-0400 Tokyo) to let me do a search, just to see what future items are listed, so that I can do up one of the toy listings.

    Not sure if this is the right place but found some masterpiece toys on amazon australia sold by amazon japan so they should be official and everything and since delivery is free, i believe this is the cheapest price anywhere? to us.

    After seeing actual fulfilment of Amazon JP via AU, I went to the Amazon.co.jp site to see if we can again buy from the JP site. I was able to go through checkout using my Perth address but chose not to add any payment method. So it looks like we can buy directly from Amazon JP again. Has anyone actually received anything recently from Amazon JP?

    Yes, I've brought the DX figures of the new robot from from the most recent Super Sentai series and some art books over two transactions. There were some issues with payment being declined but after canceling the second order and reordering with a newly and extremely exactly(no abbreviated street type and Middle Initial on the card) entered address and card details it worked fine.
