Oh dear....not the best versions of these figures. :|

The blanks are definately the best of the lot.

The Booba that looks like a Red King homage is neat... but a few trainwrecks for sure.

Agreed, liked that Booba.
The Unpainted GID definitely looks the best.

I wasn't that impressed with these either. Too much going on. The Kingbee versions are definitely a better glow set.

Funny, I was going to post about this too. I wasn't interested in the figures, but more as to whether anyone could shed light on ordering from this store. They might be getting a Yamomark figure I'm interested in. Do they do overseas orders? I couldn't find anything related to it in their terms, etc.

Perhaps you need a third party like Celga or other to order?

For exclusives you probably wont get much luck because you'll prob have to go through a broker like celga. They're probably not going to drop everything to scramble to get you the toy you want in the 15 minutes that its available. For regular items you could probably get em fine. I've heard that ppl have personal brokers who get stuff for them but I have no idea who they are or how much it costs. And no most japanese storefronts dont do int'l orders unless is its SB or Garimpo.

Thanks Abe, I was doubtful they actually did straight up int'l sales. If anyone knows differently, chime in. Boy, I wish there more japanese stores doing the direct int'l sales.

Good question. I guess if it's a secondary seller like Garimpo, the items are usually second-hand (long sold out at retail) or are store exclusives that won't be sold here. So I don't know how much that cuts into their business directly.

Actually, I think these are great. They are a tribute to Ultraman and Bullmark. There's the Red King, Zarab, Mephilas, Shugaron, and one that I haven't figured out yet.
