And they charge shipping on top of it. And that's why I don't use BBTS anymore.

Well middleman fees from importing the figure over and selling it to customers is going to cause that to happen seeing that Bluefin can't import Marvel figuarts in North America.

Considering they're buying in bulk, their middleman fees should be much lower than those of us who are ordering a single figure. Short of having each figure flown over individually on a chartered flight, there is virtually no justification for a $200 price increase. It's way out of scale for even their usual, somewhat already over-the-top, prices. It's gouging, pure and simple.

I hear ya. Between here and then, I might save up enough but.....no. Can't justify a buy at $40-$500+ for one figure, even a Figuarts. Here's hoping for a deep discount.

You got Itassha for cheap?!? Lucky guy. I can just forget it....

No, I never got Itassha at all. But I know it got pretty cheap on Mandarake for a while.

Don't see this happening to the Hulkbuster, because Avengers. But it is a very impressive piece, it really is. Now would be a good time to be rich.

But other than that, I'm kinda sad we don't get more announcements. Where's Ultron and Vision? Black Widow, Hawkeye, Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver? Would be cool to get some of those.

Yeah, so far, most of the Iron Man figuarts have held on to their value pretty well on the aftermarket. Still hoping to find a War Machine Mark I for a reasonable price since I skipped over him when he came out. -_-

I would definitely feel much better about skipping Hulkbuster if that means I'll be able to get the rest of the Avengers cast in Figuarts form. Right now, I don't think I'll be able to justify $400 for one oversized figuart even with all the diecast and LED features.
