Mandarake are great for that. They always mark the price as 500 yen no matter how much I seem to have paid

Ordering from Japan is reasonably priced (especially if you go SAL), but Bluefin's releases tend to cost a lot more to import (Amazon have a horrible import fee on toys) so I've held off on getting anything from them yet.

I was under the impression UK comic shops could order from Diamond(through their UK branch), and therefore possibly Bluefin. Not 100% sure it's for merchandise beyond comics. Might be worth asking, though.

They probably can, its just independent comic shops are few and far between. Forbidden Planet (a big comic chain store here) order through Diamond, but I'd rather just go through amiami than hassle about with them.

Well, just ordered a Kuuga Ultimate Form from a member over at TFW. In the end it turned out to be $4 more expensive then the cheapest Ultimate I found on eBay, but with a direct line to talk to the seller as opposed to eBay's backwards ass message system, I think the extra money to save me some grief was worth it.

I can't wait for him to arrive

Ive seen Ultimate on Mandarake for roughly $40. Is it going for a more than that on ebay? I actually wound up getting mine for 2500 yen plus shipping last week.

I got mine for $45 shipped.
There was one or two up on eBay that were a little cheaper, but the last time I settled for eBay because it was slightly cheaper I ended up getting bit in the ass (Think you need patience for SAL shipping? Try waiting two months >.>)

Other than that there was one other table that had figuarts but nothing I was interested in. The only toku stuff I bought was an SHF Fourze and Machine Massigler

I have to reassess what I said. I guess one guy got in some more stuff before the dealer's room opened yesterday, as he had New World Chopper, Smoker, and Crocodile yesterday. I picked them up along with SDCC Gohan, all for $185. Crocodile is down right amazing.

I've owned Den-O Sword Form for a week now and man does he have personality. It's like they gave him extra side-to-side head movement when compared to other figuarts just so he can pull off cocky poses. I love the new ankle tilts, too. So much smoother.

It really is a great figure and I love how they handled the shoulder armor too.
