I dunno what I'm doing right, but I seem to be avoiding all the price hikes and stock shortages. I've gotten everything I've wanted from the AC line and for relatively cheap compared to Figuarts. I'm not trying to rub that in or come across as a mean spirited dick or something, it's just weird that everyone else is having such a shit time of it.

I just don't have the money when they're cheap, but when I do they sell or get price-hiked :lol

several hours ago. but if i dont get it i wont be too upset. Im picking up Mango and Kiwi arms from the post office in the morning.

See you have my jealousy on that =p Chances are neither of us will get it, some stranger could have beaten us both.

I'm just struggling to get them for the same reason as OOO. When they've appeared cheap i haven't had the cash and I haven't really had the cash to preorder stuff either. It sucks. In fact if this order goes through it'll be my first Toku purchase since coming back from the states.

The one I really wanna get is Ryugen, who happens to sell for the cheapest often. But now, he's bumped up and I still can't get him >_<

It sucks, but I'm hoping that being patient will pay off. Eventually. Maybe.

So for now I'm gonna live by the words of Ed and 'have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over.'

To be honest, ive paid over the odds for DX Melon arms and im resolved never to have to do that again. But that was customs charges and EMS shipping so im totally to blame.

Mango and Kiwi was a treat since ive sold about a thousand pounds worth of collectibles in the last 2 weeks to cover the bills and food for xmas, I didnt mind spending £20 on a treat like that. I may even order Zangetsu from that seller as it reached me in under a week, assuming Mandarake doesnt pay off.

I just wish a few more retailers got these lines as I cant use HLJ or CStoys due to the savage customs charge they keep acquiring. Amiami is the only retailer i have left and theyre already sold out of everything.

If its the one for 2000 i put an order in for him about 12 hours ago. So......to the victor go the spoils!

I'm wondering if I should just nab Zangetsu now, even though I HATE buying single items from Mandarake, as it's a waste on shipping.

The war for Zangetsu seems to be raging and I'm here playing with my Budou Lockseed hoping to get a decent priced Ryugen :lol
