I guess I'll just wait it out. Buying from Tsume is more expensive and I would probably have to pay duty on it....?

Yea I am not too terribly concerned about the wait as I leave everything in my pile of loot for a long time anyways and just take shipment at the end of the holding period (or in december/jan, june/july).

Heck now that I think about it, I am going to have to hit up IKEA before I get a shipment of anything other than figures because I am just about out of space on my current shelves.

You guys don't pay anything extra for importing from Europe to the USA do you.

For the US? I actually just assumed because I'm from England (living in the US).
If not then that's really good news!

2. Attack on Titan Colossus Statue (long arm, also in The Smiling Company booth)
3. TMNT Dio (think it was The Smiling Company - who are these guys?)
4. Raoh on horse (didn't see it at the show but I like it - think it's Tsume)
Can you guys help me understand PO dates, where I need to go to PO, where's a good place to get updated info (twitter, forums, etc.), prices?
Oh, and would love to know what you think of these statues!

Thanks for introducing me to even more... There's a couple on that list I have to get.
What's a good show that highlights the japanese/anime statues? NYCC? SDCC? Another? I'm in Canada, but I'd love see all this in person.

None of the American ones. Stuff like wonderfest. Just a note the vast majority of it is stuff that people here wouldn't normally be interested in... However if you are the vast majority of the none-super cheap stuff is incredibly well "painted" and they are also essentially sold as advertised.
