Holy crap! I managed to find a Shin Zangetsu on Nippon Yassan, I think I got the last one as well D:

Yes, i am not the only one who gave in to the Shin

Shit me too... I seriously didn’t realize how lucky I was by grabbing one like half an hour ago! :0

I could have bought him at work but I don’t want to use my passwords and stuff in that network so I waited till I got home. And even then I didn’t rush to the PC to buy one, holy shit I got lucky there... extremely lucky.

He was still very expensive though... but now I don’t regret it.

I guess I'm the only one that is meloncholy when it comes to Shin Zangetsu's design. I just don't see any appeal in it. I think his first design is more orangenal.

He wasn't all too expensive for me, like £10 more than what a regular figuart goes for over here in some stores so I'm like woop! Also checked on yahoo japan auctions and he's already going for 2000 yen more than NY. For those still looking for Shin Zangetsu, keep an eye out on Cstoys and Toku Taku toys, I'm not sure if they'll have excess figures because the latter sold out during the preorder period but give it a go because you'll never know what will happen.

If you want to try yahoo japan auctions, go through the known middlemen, or if you want you can try this place -

They're an extension of Tenso.com which allows you to buy straight from japanese sites that only ship to japanese addresses. Although warning, if it's the same as Tenso they only ship items to you via EMS.

I don't regret keeping my pre order for Shin Zangetsu now.

ha ha, no wait, groan, that was actually terrible. :P

I agree though, I prefer original Zangetsu to Shin Zangetsu. But I'm buying all of the Gaim Figuarts, so it doesn't matter which I like more. :)

Just put in a order for Garren Jack, Nippon-Yasan seems to have a few in stock. 5500 yen, plus shipping, if anyone still needs him.

Yeah he wasn’t "very" expensive, but he was still double the price I payed for Gaim when he was new. 10 more then I paid for Gridon.

Given the after market prices this thing will go to now I'm still happy, but he was my most expensive FiguArt yet.

Still haven't managed to snag one :(

Damn, missed the Shin Zangetsu window. Argh.
