Badass pictures. Glad you got your hands on it!

Just put my order in for Na-Go, so I should be set for all the main cast. Time will tell where else the line goes, and which ones I end up purchasing. There's not many remaining suits at the moment that are instant purchases for me

Once you upgrade the elbows, it's 100% hand candy.
Do the elbow upgrades do anything other than improve durability? Does it look better or give more articulation?

Does Gatack have the same issue?

It just improves durability. Joints look basically the same as the originals but are more durable.

Gatack and Dark Kabuto suffer from the same potential breakage issues. Only the Hopper Hell Bros are immune to it because they fixed the issue by then iirc.

Haven't bought any SHF fron Amiami in literally a yeae,but like, ?3900 can't be the normal cost of shipping for a single figure now, can it? They're saying that will be the EMS cost for Geats to the US west coast. Would DHL be likely to be any cheaper? Don Momotaro from Anime Export just under a month ago was ?2800

I love Kabuto, awesome figure. It was my second Shinkocchou Seihou I think? At the time it was magical to get these fancy boxes. Still is for "new" franchises, seeing the Ultraman box was amazing and I'm excited to get in Gokai Red.

DHL was cheaper for me, I just got charged by AmiAmi for Geats today, EMS was like 3600 yen, DHL in the low 2000. Shipping to Europe. I'm also shipping just this figure, nothing else in there. DHL has been cheaper for about half a year for me, I use it regularly now.

Also, if you got charged by AmiAmi and they list a complete price with shipping included, you can still change the shipping option during the next step before you pay and get all available shipping options with respective prices listed. They just automatically calculate an estimate price for these orders waiting for payment, you can still change it.

They've never listed the prices of other shipping methods when I modify an item after getting the notification, just given me the same "shipping will be calculated later" message. I'll try swapping to DHL though, see if it helps

It's kind of hard to see, but after you choose a shipping method for the first time on an order, after that gets quoted, if you go to change the method, you'll now see that the other options have prices.

I just placed an order in January and went through this process. It is not intuitive.

Shin Henshin 02-18-2023 10:04 AM
It's always been like that and yeah it's a bit tedious, but at least they do let you change shipping methods before order completion. You gotta wait an extra day or so to get recalculations but I'll take the lesser of two evils.

Shipping-wise, DHL's always been cheaper of the quick shipping options for me. Whether it's one item or like 5+, compared to EMS it's at least a few bucks cheaper, at most $10+ cheaper.

Need some advice: I know there's a bunch of different Ultraman figures, which one is the best? I think I'm going to grab Ultraman and Kamen Rider SHF to pair with my Akarenger for a small "classic toku" display (inspired by another post I saw on this site.)

I was also thinking about grabbing a Godzilla to really complete the lineup, but the '54 Godzilla Monsterart appears out of print and super expensive. Any suggestions here as well?
