Super stuff Jackie - You're should send more photos once you incorporate these recent ly purchased figures into your collection.
What is the name of the translucent green one with paint splashed on it?
The Forest one is the shit - I love that whole series and the theme - Earth, Sky, Ocean, ...
Do you have the completed set yet? If you do, show us a photograph of just those figures grouped together.
Demanding? Who me?
And what’s with the condom? Be very careful – I don’t think you want to give birth to one of these guys.

well i don't know what the condom is about here... (and i DON'T want to know what the prev. owner kept in the can) but i do know that the Green with circular splatter is the "Ocha"? thats the name in S7
who knows, maybe i'll go out one night and lady luck will bless me a jp toy-knowledgeable suitor for that uhhhh extra treat i found.
i do have the 5 basic secreters. finally! in my hands, but i don't have the New Years (or Employee) final figure that Ramos held up in his "b-day" pic
one day...... sigh......
peace n love n toys.... hehehehe!!!

just save that thing for comic-con and maybe Toy Cupid will bless you with a" ... happily ever after," but before the commitment you'll be prepared.
I think the Ocha is the green w/o the paint. The reason I'm asking is that I have one too. I thought it might have been a fan's custom work but now you have one too so I'm wondering what the dealio is.

I thought they lacked the paint too, but most of the ones I have seen pictured in various places have had the green splatters across the clear green vinyl...
I wonder indeed if there are two variants of that one maybe.

yeah, they have the subtle green spatter. Ocha means tee, it is supposed to be green tea. There you go.

I received an Atmos set from Mandarake today, they sent it out last Friday and it already got here!
And they sent it as a gift so I didn't have to pay any duty or anything!
I love those guys.

your out 480 dollars.
FACTS:
1. there is no import duty on plastic toys unless you bring in like 2000.oo worth and then it's like 1,2% or something.
have them insure your stuff for fullvalue.

So Mandarake wrote like 1000 for the value of my stuff, I'm guessing that might be in Yen though because my order was way less than that, but it does say that they will declare the full value on their website unless otherwise requested so I don't know.
I know I've paid all kinds of duty/import/handling charges and shit on things coming into Canada before, if they aren't marked as gifts.

no, it's a function of the japanese postal service - If they put too high an amount then different rules/mailing requirements kick in.
