Can you still order Boost Mark-II and Ziin from P-Bandai to ship to the US?

If you're asking can a proxy site be used to order from PB Japan, I'm not sure. Zenmarket is no longer able to order items off PB. You can try FromJapan, which does a similar proxy service, but at the moment I'm not sure if they can still work with PB

These two are available now on the US PB site, releases one month after Japan. They also come out the same month so saving on shipping is possible

Well I meant this website:
https://p-bandai.com/us/item/N2697376001001?lang=en

Yes, that?s the US P Bandai website I was mentioning. Most of the rider figures I believe are shipped out the month after the release in Japan

I think most people prefer using a Japanese store to save a bit of money; its useful for when you are multiple figures released across different months so you can bundle ship them together

Buying off the PB website isn't that bad pricing wise if you are just getting one single item sporadically IMO

Cool, thanks!

I?m thinking of preordering Boost Mark-II from that site.

Thanks. It may be good to start using another shop rather than always sticking with one as it may give me more option down the road. Price is not too bad, not at all significant. Do they also have a free warehouse storage option so I can lump a few SHF together to save on shipping? Hong long can I store?

Yes, you can store items in the warehouse and ship them off later. When I emailed them last year, I was told the hold time was 6 months once the item is released. Anime-Export also makes it so much easier to bundle ship, you select which items to bundle together and wait for the invoice. No need to request group shipment

Thank you. That's easier than Hobby Genki and 6 months is good enough. Do they only offer Japan-Post EMS? Didn't seem to have DHL/Fedex/UPS option..

You can ask them to ship via DHL, they offered that during the pandemic when EMS was suspended for certain countries.

Still works now, so just ask them, they do ship out via DHL.

Great! Thank you for all the insights. Have a couple of frustrated experience with EMS, so would prefer to pay a bit more (sometime now) for DHL.
