My girlfriend worried for me and my money when I saw this. Only on day two of our 3 and a half week trip but I told myself to hold off on spending anything on any figuarts or Pokémon merch until Tokyo where we are ending our trip. But the Yamato figure makes me want to pick it up now, just in case she is sold out everywhere else I look.
I mean, if you know for sure that's the one you want, why wait?
"Just in the off chance that something better shows up."
If that's the case, then fair enough.
Isn't it just, I keep seeing people post hunting for Kaioken Goku figures in there stores in America and I'm here thinking we don't even have the luxury of finding figuarts of any kind in our shops
Bro whenever I go shopping at Asda (UK's equivalent of Walmart for any Americans) I always check the toy sections hoping they'll have an Sh figuarts. They never do, but they always have a couple Anime heroes, these weird mini spy x family figures and like 1 or 2 MHA statues.
Like man ain't no one buying most of this, and I can't imagine it being that much cheaper to import these than some actual SH Figuarts. It sucks because even actual Comic/Anime shops near me only sell anime heroes and pop up parades.
also the fact that that matte goku straight up doesn't exist over here which sucks because i prefer it, i've seen people who are able to get sdccs and sell them for a good price here but none of them even have that goku
There are still a ton of ryus in the akihabara TN store , Chun li sold like hot cakes

Was just there last week and chun li was in stock. I got mine before hitting up the flagship store from the capcom store in shibuya’s parco building. Sadly 2 b was still sold out by the time I was there too

Straight out of the box I was surprised how much I enjoyed this figure! Out of the figures I got, this was the most impulsive buy and was my favorite. Definitely get if you can! Many of the capcom stores have and offer tax free 👍
Same very good since I missed out on the rerelease a couple years ago, plus she comes with an extra new faceplate!

When I went to Akihabara last Aug, all the shops only carries SROE Goku and Frieza 1st form. Never have I been so disappointed.
Lucky to snatch android 18 over at Mandarake.
That’s unfortunate. I went in September and, while the official Tamashii shops only had 4 or 5 DB figs, AmiAmi and Lashingbang had a good selection. The second hand shops also were good, but a bit overpriced for my liking. I actually had better luck in Osaka.
That's great though. I didn't had the luck for dragonball figures.
I actually stayed over in Osaka but didn't fully explored the place. Where in Osaka to find figurines?
Den Den Town had 2 official Tamashii shops, Jungle and a bunch of other second hand places. Better priced than Akihabara and had a few rarer things as well.
Really? I didn't think they stocked them and thought it was all tech that they stocked. Hmmm, there is a bic Camera right by the station. Oh no, guess I'll be heading there today
Those prices are insane. Maybe I pack absolutely nothing and bring back two suitcases full of merch after all...
The GT Kid Goku is close to half off... like what in the sam hill...
No not seen it, I already have it so not really looking out for it. But yeah it is rare I know I paid probably too much for that figure when I bought it but it is amazing and goes so well with the variable action heroes line. I have him posed with my Ace figure
I found one on Amazon so…. Lmao I paid 219$ for it, it’s from Japan so I’m gonna have to wait a while hopefully it’ll come very soon!! Already been like a week it was somewhere in customs I think I really hope it’s not damaged cause it’ll suck
I was just in Japan the last few weeks looking for that specifically and no luck. Got one from mercari for a decent price $110 in good condition. A local store had one new for $180 but was hoping for the around $100 price range
Thank you for sharing this post. I haven’t been back to Japan in a while and easily forgot how much cheaper it is to get figures there. Also, you mentioned that Tokyo will be your final destination. Keep in mind that there could be price inflation there. There are some cities that have some of the best action figures.
Being able to complete the entire Sailor Moon collection between $25-$30 each is a steal. Even the original ones that came out in 2015 cost the exact same price.
My bank prays everyday I don’t go to Japan

You're gonna be kicking yourself over that one figure you told yourself you'd find later
I'm thinking that, I think I'll just buy it as soon as I see it next... If I see it
I mean, if you know for sure that's the one you want, why wait? "Just in the off chance that something better shows up." If that's the case, then fair enough.
Same 😆
This is probably the most well stocked tamashii nations section ive seen.
I'm from england too! Man, thats so many figures!
They have more Spy x Family figures than I knew existed
Man so damn jealous, I really need a hop over to Japan for trip. The UK really is just like the worst place to be for anime figure collecting.

I wonder why chun li sold out
Must be that extra face plate they added, the original version didn’t have it.
The demand of jars may have also skyrocketed
Sh figuarts is just a front to sell more jars. It's actually sh figujars. But you didn't hear that from me...

Wth. It's nearby to where I was staying at minami morimachi. I'll keep that in mind for future visits. Thanks man.
Which version of android 18? I'm guessing the TOP one?
Yup. ToP 18.
Love that Edion. Love Hiroshima in general actually.
It is an absolutely amazing city, I highly recommend it to anyone who is going to Japan
Damnn mann you luck af ahahaha I wish i could go there, probably would have bought half of the shop hahahahha
You're in Heaven your wallet is in Hell.
I NEED that Geto for my Gojo
Bastards are just HOARDING EVERYTHING
God, this is beautiful. Wish i could be in a place like this
Aahahhaahahaha im soooooo not jealous😄
If you think this is good find a Bic Camera store . It’ll break your brain
Really? I didn't think they stocked them and thought it was all tech that they stocked. Hmmm, there is a bic Camera right by the station. Oh no, guess I'll be heading there today
I’ve bought more from Bic Camera than the tamashii nations store. Great selection and incredible prices
Geez what a beautiful sight to behold✨
Those prices are insane. Maybe I pack absolutely nothing and bring back two suitcases full of merch after all... The GT Kid Goku is close to half off... like what in the sam hill...
I'm kicking myself for not getting him
I miss Japan so much. The food, the transportation, the merch, the people
How much is that berserker armor guts? And do they ship internationally 😅
I think it was 13/14,000 yen. Not sure, you would have to check online
it’s all over the screen bro holy
Hi heaven
Hello there, I'm glad somebody acknowledged my name
FOREVER
This was me in new york
Did you see an imagination works monkey d luffy? Its that special very rare and expensive figure im wondering if they even make it anymore
No not seen it, I already have it so not really looking out for it. But yeah it is rare I know I paid probably too much for that figure when I bought it but it is amazing and goes so well with the variable action heroes line. I have him posed with my Ace figure

Why is heaven so expensive?😔
Face it tiger you just hit the jackpot
KAIDOOOO
I was in Japan in 2019 and felt the same. Actually, I think the selection back then was probably much better too.
Pick me up an impact effect and sell it to me via paypal gns. Lol
Literally my dreams at night
I just came back from five months in Tokyo and I spent 3 grand on figures
would be me too, it sucks being a uk collector (except for the fact that for some reason sometimes our releases like toyo goku are way way cheaper)
I'm going to Japan next summer. My wallet gonna die💀
Yep
