My issue? How about my box being sent on May 14th and it's been sitting in Osaka since May 15th. I've sent 2-3 emails a week since then with no response! I'm pissed and if I don't hear from 'em by Friday I'm getting my money back via PayPal. Sucks too 'cause there were some pieces in the box I really wanted.


Any luck on a papal dispute?
I tried to file one just now, they let me fill in all the info and said that I can't file for this kind of dispute!?!? whaaa?
Anyone have any tips?
I'd just forget about it, but I'm actually out about $100!

Post Re: Kaiju-Taro Sale Confusion
I never had the fortune of using the now defunct Kaiju-Taro, but it is always a real shame that great stores like these recede away into memory, without something else stepping in to fill the void. Makes you wonder sometimes. I would especially wish that the website was still around if only for reference on neo-kaiju figures. Anyway, I am glad some SBers managed to luck in with the clearance items, but it is unfortunate for the troubles too. I am looking for some information on a figure that they apparently once had around 2007. Can anyone identify the maker (and correct name) of this 'Ghost of 1000 Eyes"?

don't know the maker, but it's a "hyakume" or "百目".

Thanks for your help. With the name I was able to figure out it is from Pilot-Ace. Came in a green version too, which I would love to get my hands on.

And Pilot Ace went out of business last year which is sad, they made some great toys. But they are kinda back as HandsometaroM, they made the Jet Turre figure.
