depends on how crappy bandai makes the kit, if it's MG grade, it's easy, less masking. If it is BB grade…...kill me then.
I am going to paint mine + my friend's, but since the paint is no longer able to ship out of japan...i am worried i cannot complete it, i don't think i have enough brown colors.
i only use mr.color and gaianotes, adelaide doesn't sell these paint.....
see the point is, when i buy 8~16 paints from japan, the shipping fee is around around 1000yen by SALsp, but by from US, they charge $1~$2 extra per paint bottle and they charge me $100USD+ to ship to Australia.
i will ask crease to see if japan allow to ship out by sea, or ask if Hong Kong seller......:sad:

You finally found a regular Usopp :)
It's really weird that you can still find nearly every sofubi Panson but Usopp in HK…
turn to front side, it's one piece 2 years stretched canvas art!!
! [qimg]http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/n529/thchang01/op2yrcanvas.jpg[/qimg]
]
for canvas, what u need to do is just get the artwork, rephotoshop it better and make size larger, then send it off for print, some help u to do stretching, but the shipping will cost higher, if you can find local frameshop, they might do it for u cheaper…all depends,
Wow, this is the first time I've heard of a process like that. I would really love to have one of those canvases hanging from my wall~!
Just got my discounted Brook from amiami! He's huge I love him.
UGH another box of 50+ manga damaged and lost. WHAT. THE. $&#($%. Post office will do nothing for me. Over 100 books just up and gone. English editions, at $10 a pop. Kind of obvious it was a bad packing job by the shipper, I guess I'll have to take it up with paypal or my credit card company…

Yikes. Sounds like you're living a nightmare of mine. I'm always paranoid about stuff that I order getting lost/stolen in the mail and then having to jump through hoops the next few months trying to get it resolved. :sad:

No effin' way, another one?! This is getting ridiculous!! One box is bad enough, but two? Now it's obvious that the shipper is at fault, not the shipping company. Therefore he should give you your money back.
Do you await any more packages from this seller?
Either way, I hope you'll find a satisfying solution and not just end up having lost THAT MUCH money.

Even I'm pissed off to hear this. Something's definitely up, unless it's just one big, fat coincidence, which I feel that it's not. I would definitely be contacting the shipper or paypal about this whole deal.

OMG not again. they could atleast do other figures besides chopper:getlost: getting sick of this little dude!!!

Thanks for the heads up, that one is mine. And @ Maggie….sorry to hear all the troubles with the mail, but it definitely sounds like inadequate packaging to me...not that the USPS is completely free of fault but the seller should know better when shipping something that heavy.
I did contact the shipper, but it was someone's personal collection (so it's not really a store). It's not my fault they're an idiot when packaging something, though. I'm so used to packing well due to collectibles and whatnot that I expect others to take the time to do it right as well. I can partially blame the postal service but this is the first time it's happened and since it's 2 of 5 boxes that are now destroyed it's the shipper's fault in my book. I've decided that this is ridiculous and I'm going to file a claim with my credit card company once I know the fate of the last package.
Just… please, when shipping heavy stuff, reinforce the packaging and protect with cushion around the items! >_<
On a better note, I've managed to secure 2/3 shanks crew WCF for myself (from an AP member - thank you! _) and am glad I did, I feel time is running out for being able to obtain those guys.

Wooo! Another Awesome looking Chopper figure. Why can they make Chopper look great and fail so much with those Ace and WB ones earlier in the year?
I'd love to get it but I think it'll be too expensive like the last two.
Thanks, good news, but I hope that Chopper won´t be Prize A or B ¬¬
I'm about 99.99% sure it's going to be from the past Chopper kujis that it's going to be A or B prize (In fact all kujis have the main figures for A and B with Strong World being the exception since there are so many figures).
@ RedDragon, out of curiosity to your source, did they happen to post what other items is part of the Chopper kuji? Wife is interested to see if there's something useful and cute. We currently use the glasses and mugs from the Kujis and they've been pretty awesome.
Thanks, good news, but I hope that Chopper won´t be Prize A or B ¬¬
I dont see why it wont the other two Choppers where also B prizes.
Like the other two these Lucky Draw focus only on Chopper.
This one is for his birthday wich is December the 24th
Edit: to slow, and nope Sensui this was the only picture
And wtf…..http://www.1kuji.com/cho-birth
The name of the Kuji is Happy Birthday Chopper? Hahaha….since it's December I thought it'd be Christmas related.....
Edit: to slow, and nope Sensui this was the only picture
Awww ok, guess it's the waiting game heh….least something decent is on the horizon....I'm still debating if I want to pick up a set of the WCF from the Marineford re-release kuji coming up but I want to confirm if it's all different repaints in some way or if it's just Doflamingo first.

Just broke down and ordered my Zoro v2 from Otacute via EMS. Any ideas on how long until I get it in reality?
Around 2-5 working days (without customs interference)

Hi, does anyone know what is the height of Monkey D. Garp? Is he as tall as Jinbei? Or just a bit taller than Luffy?

Banpresto already released pictures of the coming re-release, so you can already compare the color scheme of this Kuji with the original WCF release. The only recolored version are the 2 figures exclusive to Kuji (imprisoned Ace and Whitebeard) and WCF Doflamingo.
Hi, does anyone know what is the height of Monkey D. Garp? Is he as tall as Jinbei? Or just a bit taller than Luffy?
click on the figure you want, scroll down and you will find this text **本体サイズ:**高さ約33cm. It's the approximate height.
I remember pictures from exibition, Garp was smaller then BB, and BB's poster says 28 cm?
Thanks. But I am looking for the actual real person height of Monkey D. Garp and not the figure height.
@Al!naJames:
I remember pictures from exibition, Garp was smaller then BB, and BB's poster says 28 cm?
The first pic of their prototypes had them about the same height. Then the most recent one made BB look taller. According to HS, BB is 260mm and Garp is 245mm.

I've seen the kuji page yes, but I tend to take everything with a grain of salt until release. So I'll wait and see.
Yeah, that's why I'm saying that what Crease linked to seems way too fishy.

I live in Florida, I always order EMS and it has always only take 3 days to get to me. Once it took 4.
I'm taking special orders for OP Green and Vol.60. Nov. 4 release. Email me.

base on a huge amount of experience (10 years of collecting) here it goes.
IF you live in the East Coast of USA.
there are two conditions:
A.if the package is mailed on a Monday-Wednesday
-usually, a flight from Japan carrying an EMS flight takes around 12 hours to arrive in to the US,add to that around 4 more hours in case that it make a stop for fuel before reaching NY which is the port of entrance for all packages coming to the US-East Coast (from Europe and Asia-Africa)
-if the package arrived in the USA - NY at night, then most likely it will be held a full day and night before it ships.
-if the package arrived during the afternoon hours (usually its scanned around 1:00 pm East Time) it will spend all day and night in NY and be shipped out around 3-4 in the morning, arriving to most destinations in the East Coast around 6:30-7:30 AM, if you do not live near a USPS sorting facility, then it means that it must be transported from one to the destination post office, due to the fact that is a EMS package, then that means add to it 1 or 2 hours before it reach the USPS locally (your town or city)
now if the packages arrive around 12 pm to the sorting facilty (not your city usps) then do not spec the package till the day after, since sorting occurs early in the morning and usually delivery guy already left. packages that are EMS are usually delivered in the mornings to their destinations (your house) otherwise must be delivered before 3 PM of that same day.
with that said, shipped Japan time OCT 31st, it should be in the US by NOV 1st USA time, (it was really shipped OCT 30th US time), 1 day processing, should be in your house by NOV 2nd USA Time
CASE B
-if your item was shipped on a Thursday, you will not see it till Monday.
because it was shipped on a Friday Japan time, which means night of Thursday your time, so by the day of Friday your time it still in the air, it should arrive in the US by Saturday either after noon or Night and spend one day there, there is no mail on Sundays so then you got to wait till Monday.
so, to conclude, if you order before Thursday you will get it in (your amount of days, not theirs) 3 days. if you order on a thursday,then it takes 4-5 days if you count the same day you order it

no comprendo? what? can you link me to this info please.

Quick question: guys, how much should it be the shipping (SAL or EMS) on hlj to Europe for 1 GLM figure?
You can look up the figure and then click the link right next to Sal "Not your country?" and change it to yours. I think they differ in weights so it's going to depend on which figure you get.
Captain Kidd is 780 yen sal to the US : ( I have him and he is pretty heavy)
http://www.hlj.com/product/BNP46861-C
but Law is 580 yen to the US:
http://www.hlj.com/product/BNP46842-A
I guess you can use that as a guide for upcoming GLMs.
Edit..Crease you were too quick for me.

Great deal I found. For those who are interested and missed out on the Shichibukai Dofla and Jimbei. Too bad i am not a fan of them. They are at $10.90 each at Otacute!!!!
There's less than 10 of each.

is it just me or they look the same colors except their stand? lol .i think i read somewhere they were going to be metalic repaints, just like they did with DB Kai DWC
no comprendo? what? can you link me to this info please.
To compare easily on English written pages, you can also compare on the wikia related articles:
http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Ichiban_Kuji_One_Piece (look at the Marineford special session)
http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/One_Piece_World_Collectable_Figure (look at OP vol. 1, 2 and 4)
Apart from the base going from blue to black and Doflamingo outfit, WCF figures should remain the same.

Edit too slow. see post above.
thanks a lot for the replies. i guess its only the stand color, the fact that now are 7 and the aweomeness of having donflamingo with a different outfit color XD. gotta have this donfla

Croc does not seem to be there too on the new set or maybe he is just not in the pic.
