Are they owned by Amazon Japan?
Oh. I thought you were referring to the post above yours, which was Amazon.
For Hobby Link Japan, I think they can guide you through it after you checkout your cart.

Those figures are amazing, but some of them really scare the hell out of me. I wouldn't want to wake up in the middle of the night and see Freeza in my bedside table.

Ah, thanks.

I've never bought stuff from overseas before, but I'm tired of just having a Dragon Ball collection that any Australian could have.

I want other fans I know to see my collection, and say "whoa, where did you get that?" :P

And of course, I love the way they look. :wink:

Sorry to resurrect this old topic but, If you wanted to buy these and don't live in Japan this would help you a lot....

Toywiz has both Freeza and Cell, Freeza being only $13.99 for a black friday deal and Cell... well, he's $22.99.

I'm not sure Toywiz is either. I can't say it from experience, but I've heard quite a few bad things about Toywiz from customers.

Well, I'm going by customer reviews. Here are some you can read if you're wondering. Not everyone who shops with them has a bad experience, but I've read too many bad experiences to want to shop with them myself.

There's a larger amount of positive feedback here, but still some bad feedback as well.

Oooooo, sexy.

I'm not often tempted by stuff like this, but... that's hawt.

It makes me glad that I will be able to afford more of this stuff soon, since I'm almost finished paying off my car. :D

Also, I know I've asked this before, but that thread seems to have died, so can anyone please tell me if this figurine is as good as it looks in its image?

Image

I just wonder because it's so big and sometimes the bigger things don't look as good as in their image.

Glad I'm not not the only one. :D

I look at it as being one of those "Hey, wouldn't it be awesome if they made this...." items, that you never think you would see. :P
