Isn't Daiso quite expensive? I'm surprised not all clear coat nail polishes have the same effect.
I personally use LA Colors Base Coat/Top Coat. It's only a dollar for a 13ml bottle and sold almost everywhere in the US. You could opt for something that dries quickly, but I find that this brand dries really fast as it is, which takes around 20 minutes. |

Okay so, poking around this thread it's evident that I'm gonna end up getting hooked on SO-DO now, going foward.
What's the best way to get them? Do individual figures show up on Mandarake pretty easily after release or should I be going with full cases/sets from HLJ/AmiAmi/wherever? |

If you want only some (or at least choose what figure really interest you), you can either wait some time to see what is available (mandarake or yahoo auction via a middleman). Beware as even if it sound cheaper it usually cost more than the normal price. Other problem with mandarake is that when you look you should be aware that there is several shop and they each send indivudual parcels, so look for buying from the same store if you see things interesting you. |

If you shop from Mandarake, don't buy from Sahra. Sahra's shipping prices are inflated to 200% for some reason, which really sucks because So-Do boxes are so small it would normally cost only around 20 USD for DHL shipping(which is incredible since it arrives in 2-3 days all the way from Japan) for even a big order of like, 10 figures.
I can't speak for every store, but I always make sure my order is packed with at least 14 So-Do boxes, which means every time I shop from Mandarake, the shipping parcel and cost should be the same. So far, Nagoya and Complex have only charged me 16 USD for DHL shipping. Sahra charged me 32 USD for the same thing. This is pretty important to know since Mandarake will only ship to the US via DHL.

Yeah, the only group shipping out of Japan to America right now are private postal carriers like DHL, UPS, or Fedex, so prices are higher.

Yeah. but it doesn't make sense as to why Sahra is the only store that I know of that has increased shipping prices. As I said, DHL is unbelievably cheap in almost every other Mandarake store I've shopped at.

The Sahra location is not an actual storefront location. It's mostly a warehouse and is not equipped for regular individual sales and shipping.
