    I went with BBTS for Spidey. I'd be fine paying a 15% tariff after buying from Japanese store, but I won't be too happy paying DHL a brokerage fee for them to do paperwork.

    Granted it was 5:30 am on Saturday but I don't recall seeing a DHL option when I paid Amiami. 😵 I'm at work and trying not to take a deep dive into this, but it looks like this guy bought something valued at $2K and was expecting to pay a 10% tarriff, about $200, not over $700 more dollars...

    I'm almost positive it was 10pm est for Cyclops. Amiami had a date and time for their listing. I preordered mine earlier that day from BBTS, but I still checked Amiami to see if Cyclops would go up at their time and he did. Amiami accepted my cancelation request for SHF Obi Wan on Saturday. I...

    About Mafex Rogue, I placed an order at BBTS months ago and canceled my HLJ preorder. I thought everything was going well receiving packages from Japan, so I placed a another preorder with HLJ since I originally planned on buying two. Then this idiot pulls August 29th out of his and I threw up...

    Missing Link

    I've never handled a G1 Ultra Magnus. I didn't have one, my brother didn't have one, and none of my TF collecting friends had one. My parents knew someone like OP was important enough to buy two, but they might've seen UM as just a white OP with a different trailer. I bet they didn't get the...

    Transformers model kits

    I finally picked up a yolopark Optimus mold. The mini Megatron gun as a pack in with Nemesis Prime was a deciding factor in going with him over OP. Gun Megatron looks great in Starscream's hand and is like the finishing touch to one of my favorite figures I bought this year. NP isn't bad...

    The packages from HK I got over the summer were delivered by a company outside the usual services like USPS, DHL, UPS, and FedEx. I can't remember their name. How did they bypass any issues? They were really efficient with an occasional delay at departure when they were probably waiting for the...

    Maybe $1000, because if I ship from a business, 30.3/7(a) is an exemption for low value shipments on US exports of $2500 or less, unless it's to certain problematic countries.

    How much fentanyl can you ship in a reasonably sized box and declare it as a $100 gift 🤔 KD was also having difficulty finding an appropriately sized box for two Mafex. All the shipping boxes are too big and more likely to draw attention by customs. I hope this post doesn't get taken out of...

    Kaiju Daddy had a stream about some of the issues he had this week trying to ship to the US from Japan. He marked a package as a gift at the equivalent of $95 USD. Japan Post wouldn't accept it because they were worried about a fluctuation in the exchange rate before the package arrives in the...

    Wolvie will be the size of one of those little DBZ figures I see at Target. Before anyone points it out, yes, we know it's video game Wolverine

    The need for Burlington Stores to be open til midnight on Friday and Saturday seems like a stretch. It's 11:50 pm and I'm out of clean underwear?

    By most, do you mean Ivanka? There's a story about Trump picking up Don Jr to take him to a Yankees game. Jr was in his dorm, I can't remember if it was a private school or college. Don Jr opens the door and he's wearing a Yankees jersey. Supposedly Trump smacks Jr across the room and tells him...

    Some of those collectors have no shame. I always have the decency to let kids choose first in the rare times I actually see a kid in the figure aisle. I got burned one time by a kid in KB. He's with his father, kneeling on the floor with a handful of wrestling figures spread out on the floor...

    From Amiami because I have an order I just paid on Saturday: Unfortunately, your shipment could not be processed due to the recent suspension of your selected shipping method. We will be sending another email with instructions on how to change your shipping method to another one that is...

    People are going to lose their patience if we keep bumping with non-Storm posts... The rerelease of Tony Hawk 1+2 was one of the last games I put a decent amount of time in. Haven't bought 3+4. We were on bikes 95% of the time as kids, but I loved the Tony Hawk games as an adult and I think...

    Never got a Neo Geo. I actually feel bad about asking for and getting a Sega CDX for Christmas from my parents. At one point I had the full stack with the 32X on top. I used to bounce back and forth between toys and videogames, where one would take slightly more precedence. Toys have been...

    I don't think it works, but I still have the 360 version of this pad with the fancy Chun Li graphics. It had a thumbstick.

    I went through a brief fight stick phase during early 2000s with PS2. Reading about custom built boxes or modifying an off the shelf controller with a better stick and buttons. I ended up with a modestly priced Hori.
