What is the customs experience like, for those of us that live in free countries and don't have to deal with such things?

I know, right? Years ago, they were pretty good. But they've really been killing it these days.

Image your package being ransomed until you pay the customs fee they've calculated + "handling fees" and that's pretty much it X'D
I guess for Bombless's Belgian post experience they hold onto it when they suspect the parcel is marked down in value and hold it longer till you produce your receipt for the box and it is same value, if it isn't add extra payment penalty T-T

Fucking commies.
Amazon looks like she turned out nicely. The base is a little plain but everything else seems good despite the shitty lighting. Pics are up on myfigurecollection for those that are curious. Sorceress also has some production model pics which makes me wonder if she's actually going to release on time.

so confirm shimakaze and kongo delayed if there is no mention of them and they already list release up to 29th of sept
It looks like it.
They're probably deciding how much to delay them [by not mentioning them in the post].

Not Kirigiri!
Why is Phat Company so fucking incompetent?
My cousin came back from japan and brought gifts for everyone. I've got something from KanColle, the Nagato but I don't really know what it is. It's a metal disk, pretty big and he has it from a vendor machine (or something like that):
I guess it's just to put on a wall or in a shelve but the cardboard that was in the box doesn't really hold the disk. I didn't find anything about that on the internet and it's not really figure related but I thought some of you may know what kind of item I've got here.^^

Wat!? Again? Kyoko noooooooooo.
So either Kyoko or Metallica is getting delayed again because there's no way in hell they're being released in the same month.
Phat Company is seriously starting to piss me off. So many delays on every single one of their products (3+ months of delays on even the most basic of designs) yet they keep announcing 3 different figures up for preorder every month. It's ridiculous. Quit putting 3 new figures up for pre-order every month if you're can't keep up with the ones you already have up for preorder and are just going to keep delaying everything by half a year.

My Google Fu tells me that it's a piece of deluxe tin art, so it really is just a large metal disc that you can display. There's two different sets as far as I can tell. Nagato is part of the second set.

I'm not completely against missing the box if the price is right, I display everything anyway and dont plan on ever selling
I also dont buy that many figs, so theres really a slim chance I'd be interested in whatever

Who is it and by what company?

blew the bust size up compared to the 3d render
I would totally buy that, if it would glow
Thank you! I searched for everything, most of the time with the words "metal" and "disk", nagato herself on amiami and so on. So I was right it's for decoration purposes, very interesting. My cousin had good fortune in his hands, Nagato is my absolute favorite from the four tin arts. I think I put it on a wall some day when I have the space for it.^^
So she's going to most likely be expensive and exclusive. Nice.

HAHA, called it. Well I'm fine with that as it makes September to be less costly. Not even sure about October though.
I see they focused on a certain asset for that Wang Yuanji figure, lol
In other news, BIJ shipped Tetsuya Alternative Outfit today. Oh the joys of pre-paying for it and totally forgetting about until you get an email about it.
Looks like Megahouse knocked it out of the park again. Here's hoping they pull a hat trick with Sorceress.

I have to admit, I really like Kyoko and I'm getting a bit mad, now. I know it's nowhere near the Bayonetta debacle yet, but still.
You and I both. I've been asking for this since the beginning...sadly I doubt they will ever be made.
Unless in 1/10 :'(
Is Nendo Red still coming out this month? I must know.
Still scheduled for the 27th (for now).
Wait. Since when did Hobby Search start taking much better, well-lit photos of figures?

lolwut?
may bees, what cha got?
AmiAmi technically doesn't allow cancellations. They'll do it on a case by case basis, and ban repeat offenders.
That said, many in here (myself included) have cancelled orders with no problem. As long as you buy a lot from them and don't cancel over and over again, you'll probably be fine.

Well, they haven't banned me, yet. You should be fine. Just make sure you don't jerk them around too much. They've been known to ban people who cancel more shit than they actually buy.
