And just a heads up if you're looking for the new fully colored Roshi figure:

Magart Beams Kame Sennin @ HobbyLinkJapan
The quasi gray scale version makes him look like a vampire or something...

That's one of the reasons why I decided not to buy the grayscale version of him and to wait for the colored one to come back in stock. I was surprised when I saw him at Hobbylinkjapan and put my order in as quick as possible!

I got the pair of them from hobbylink when they first dropped. When the package arrived to me, the color versions foot had been snapped clean off in the box. Hobbylink made me jump through some serious hoops to get a new one sent out. By the time I filed a damage claim with the post office and faxed them the paperwork, the color one was sold out. They issued me a refund but it was just a total pain in the ass to have to go through all that and THEN track another one down for a good price. Its not really hobbylinks fault though... Banpresto should have put better thought into the packaging of that figure, there's absolutely no padding in their boxes.

Nice find, I need it, I want it, but I'm going to have to wait, hopefully it's there in a week.

I just don't understand why everything's getting restocked.
Next to get; Leged of Saiyan figures and Freeza's force

If anyone sees
Any of the Legend of Saiyan line going cheapish
Or any other Banpresto DBZ figure :)

If anyone has a cooler steelbook dvd that wants to sell it (prefer new but used is fine) when/if the dragon box movies comes out contact me :)

I've tried everywhere, so far the cheapest I've seen is £25 for Piccolo and £50 for Zoro so £77 ~ $120 for the 2

It's the same with the LOS mini vol 2 and 3, I found poweranime which had volume 3 for $37 great price, but they want $40 to ship to the UK bringing them in line with ebay rip offs at $80 ~ £50 for a mini set, as opposed to the $50~£30 that Angolz, Aikouko and HLJ charge. It makes me sad to see that theres a guy with 4 of volume 2 at a buy it now of $45 and $10 postage, when I asked if he could get the last one he basically thought I'd pay anything and told me $100 for the 5 even though the last mini (King Vegeta) is on there for $20 by others.

I just wish I had your luck, once I finish off LOS I'm going to start getting all the DX and then I'm going for an Ichiban Kuji Gohan and possibly prince Vegeta :)

That's terrible, well buy the 4 and then try and find the fifth separate
Hmm the goku and one piece crossover I thought that was cheaper, but I guess not...

seriously if you guys need any japan release banpresto figures or kujis that out are out of stock....talk to me if you're having trouble finding it . I can pretty much get anything and the prices are very, very reasonable. Example: i just got my friend a genki power kuji gokou and a kid vegeta. prices? 45 and 25 + reasonable shipping costs.

How do you get so lucky with finding them cheap? Can you get Legend Of Saiyan mini volume 2 and 3 cheapish or any of the DX like a SSJ4 Vegeta?Since the only one I know of going cheap is free, if I'm willing to fly to the states and go bin diving in the bins at Rathios house :) Or Dragon Ball X One Piece figures?
