(Figurines) Currently in Japan. Need help and advice. ^_^

[VxG<3er]

Hi everyone, I am currently in Japan and searching my little heart out for the best figures I can come across of not only everything DB related but in particular my favorite man, Vegeta.

I am wondering if anyone with firm knowledge from a serious collectors point of view can send me in the right direction (I have been sifting through the many stores at Nakano Broadway, Tokyo) to get my hands on something special while I am here.

I have bought a set of small Bandai figures just to satisfy myself for today and of course the budget for my trip here is tight so I want to save myself from splurging and get a figure of Vegeta that I can really be proud of.
I trust Bandai as a brand and I know what to look for in terms of fakes but I have been looking up things on Ebay to compare prices and there is so much inconsistency. Also is "Zeem" a reputable manufacturer? I found this on Ebay and hadn't heard of 'Zeem' before:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Zeem-Dragon-Ball ... 2560508232

I have also been looking for 'Jakks' figures, is this a good idea?
In terms of general merchandise such as posters, wall hangings and albums/soundtracks, any ideas on locations?
If anyone has great advice for me it would be so greatly appreciated so I can buy something super drool worthy!

Also in return I am more than happy to scope out prices of certain objects for others (Dragon Ball related only).
I have found a seller of mainly 'antique' figures some of which blew my mind but I was unsure to buy in case I was getting a raw deal because I'm still relatively new at collecting Dragon Ball related items.

AGHHH!! It's amazing over here! (had to share!).

Thank you to whoever replies.

I have been a toy store that sells so many DB-related figures at Kichijouji, but that was about a year ago. I don't know whether the shop is still selling them or not. Maybe I am going there to check it out on Monday if you want. In terms of general merchandise, I think you should go to Akihabara.

I suggest going to AsoBitCity in Akihabara. I think I recall seeing some Dragon Ball figures when I went there in 2009. Good luck!

VxG<3er If you want a nice Vegeta, Banpresto made a DX version of his Majin form which looks amazing, and sells for roughly $100 on ebay.
If you see any Legend of saiyan of world collectible figures could you let me know how much they are, as I'm intrested to find out just how much I'm overpaying, getting them from ebay.
Just wish I had to money to go to Ichiba or somewhere like that in tokyo and just get every figure I want

According to this thread, they're legitimate.

Here you can find Majin Vegeta DX figure for about $30, plus $5 shipping! But, I bought the last two.

I saw you post something like that in another thread, saw Vegeta, went to buy it, but shipping to the UK was $35, so I couldn't afford it

Raithos,
Could you please link me to a preview of this Majin Vegeta (Ebay or something). Hopefully I can get something when I head into Akihabara today/many other days over the next 2 weeks!
Also, link me pictures/Ebay sales of the items you want me to search for, for you and I will gladly keep a keen eye out.

Hmm a preview of him? I guess you can see it here, here and an image of it here.

Items I'm interested in hmm, I'm interested in the Naruto Ichiban Kuji fox piece: here with a picture of it: here.
Edit: just saw you're sticking to Dragonball stuff only, agh! But I'll still leave my links there.

Also I want the DWC Dragon World Collectible Goku and Chi Chi in their wedding attire (just those two figures only): Linked here and here.
Other than that I don't think there's much out right now that I don't know about that I would want, I'm pretty up to date with the figures I want.

One thing you want to look for is http://en.item.rakuten.com/otakara714/h-0649/
as they're cheap (£15 - $30 AUS) for freeza's space ship and they go for a near £100 on ebay, but you'll love it when you see it, and end up with the whole collection, I'd have it already if the seller could speak English .
Rathios, I thought you had the wedding figures, if you still need them I found a place selling them for 11 euros each.

"DROOLS" I've seen the ship sold at many places in Akihabara today and at Nakano the other day but not being sold with the whole set.
I Have however found a piece I wanted.
Super Battle Collection BANDAI
Baby and Vegeta &
SSJ4Vegeta ....hooray!


Also Raithos, will keep my eye out for those Naruto ones for you. Can't promise I'll be in those specific sections though when I'm doing my searching.

[oXdanXo]

How much was the ship? (theres 2 of them) Because if it works out at a nice price I'd pay you and the shipping to the UK with some extra for you, how much would you want to ship one to the UK?
Did you find a SSJ4 Vegeta GT DX? Because those look amazing,but they're so expensive, hope you're having a good time out there, if I went I'd come back with all the dragon boxes, shed loads of figures and video games, good job I can't handle the flight to Tokyo

Congratulations on the SSJ4 Vegeta , and thanks any eyes in the source country would be cool!

Raithos,

Have not been able to find the Naruto figure you want... I have been looking in nearly every store I go into but I have found this for 7480YEN which currently converts to pretty much exactly 90AUD. Sorry not sure where you are from to convert it to your country's currency. It appears to be inthe same line and make as the one you were after.

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_517ZZqZ2WPk/S ... uto++C.jpg

Hope this has helped and if I see the exact one you want I'll PM you asap.

Also if you are particularly interested in GokuXChi-Chi as a couple figures I've found a couple if cute ones. You know the scene in the Cell saga when he wakes up at Roshi's after being sick and Chi-Chi runs over and he gives her a kiss before he flies off? Well, there is a small figure of that which I thought was really sweet AND there is also a figure of them driving in a car on their wedding day, which is interesting because I didn't realise Goku knew how to drive then....ummmm wasn't there a whole filler ep or 2 on him learning to drive with Piccolo? haha !!
Anyhoo, if either of those things interest you I'll write down the prices and manufacturer when I head back to Akihabara this week.
^_^Got myself a Bulma bath towl today.... teehehehehe!

[oXdanXo]

I'm intrested in the wedding one, how much was it? How much would you want for it, shipping to the united kingdom and also what does it look like?
You're so lucky, only thing I don't envy is the jet lag that you'll get on the way back

Yes that Kakashi is the exact line in which I want the naruto figure, thank you for looking.
Hmm that Goku and Chi Chi driving the car on their wedding day sounds pretty nice, any info on that would be great.
Lol congrats on the Bulma piece!
