Ordered a few times there and didn't remember it was that long. I guess i'm a bit spoiled by my orders from Timcent on Ebay. Usually got my orders withing 3 weeks of HK release.

How much more do you pay for getting the figure a month earlier than others ?

P.S Really like your wanted list !

Actually, i pay less to get those early. Reputable Asian sellers such as DenDen and KG are reliable, cheaper and also help in avoiding extra fees.

Living in Europe, ordering from the US could be a good option as well if shipping and import duties weren't that high... not even mentioning transport companies adding their processing fees over that.

Ordering locally is the worth though as you get your figures way after everyone else (at least 3 months behind compared to US releases) and end up paying more as retailers charge you local taxes and pass on import duties to final customer as well as their profit margin.

Generally speaking, a figure prices at $200 (prior to S&H) in the US can be add for $180 all included if acquired from a Asian store while it's gonna cost $250 buying it locally.

OK sure I know all the options. But KG are typically at the same time as Sideshow give or take a week or two. I thought you were getting the first release figures from Secret Base.

Is this Obi Wan still worth to buy? In video review some say, in certain angle it does not look like Obi Wan Some say it is like Hasbro toy. I am actually already cancel the Pre-Order. Thinking whether should I buy back the pre-order again.

I got the same email. Stinks, haven’t had a new figure in a long time, dark side anakin. I wonder if we can get a figure announcement this week with all of the marvel hype. May 4th or not, it may be tough to knock marvel off of the ht Facebook page. Shazam could be announced as well. Let’s go ht, give us an ot announcement.
