They do, but the shipping cost is beyond ridiculous. Your best bet is to wait until HLJ, Yes Asia, or Akadot start to carry it.
so Amazon japan is expensive?
I hope Yesasia does not do those jumbled or links with a different name in it

Dagg what set are your figurines from (the whole Mugiwara crew) and the Crocodile /Mihawk ones? About how big are they? And where did you find them? :)

Amazon Japan's shipping is incredibly expensive. Personally, I'd only use it as a last resort for something I couldn't live without.
At one time they did regular and expedited shipping. Last time I checked they did away with the regular shipping option. I was looking to get "Rainbow" or another recent book. It was going to cost about $30 for shipping alone! Shipping overseas in general is expensive – and I'm used to high shipping costs because of where I live anyway -- but Amazon Japan is just crazy.
And here I was thinking their prices were awesome! (with a manga volume being around $4) But I never paid attention to their shipping…damn.

Well, I looked at an old order of mine, and they did indeed make a flat shipping rate >_<;;;
3000円. My last order had two books and it came to only 1800円. That was an EMS order too! Shipping overseas, however, isn't really all that expensive per se. I've shipped to Japan a couple of times and it's only cost me around 8 dollars (2kg and less packages). Most international sellers/stores, however, require you to have you're order insured and shipped by EMS so that they aren't responsible if something is lost or damaged.
I spent the most on shipping I ever have just a while ago - $78.00 USD, that's $83.00 CAD out of my own pocket. Registered mail + insurance. >_<;
(Yay for One Piece merchandise. >___<)
EDIT: Tashigi at HLJ has finally reached Low Stock status.

I spent around that much…but it was for a SFC + 20 games. The package was relatively heavy so...
What did you buy that required that much money to ship?
Wow, 20 games, haha.
Well, I bought 4 P.O.P. and two boxes of 10 of those Unlimited Adventure figurines. Maybe that amount seems right? …Maybe not? It's just so much. o_o;
Dagg what set are your figurines from (the whole Mugiwara crew) and the Crocodile /Mihawk ones? About how big are they? And where did you find them? :)
The Strawhat ones are from the first set of Feeling figures and the Mihawk and Crocodile ones with a background are from a set called Characollecan. I'm not sure about the other Crocodile one, though. The Feeling ones are about 6" and the others are about 5". All of them came from eBay.
EDIT: Tashigi at HLJ has finally reached Low Stock status.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [/vader]
I still haven't found a job, bloody dammit!
I just might have to order one within the next few days >_>
Unlimited wheee!!!

Damn, did you get those randomly, or were they already open?
(I bought two boxes, got doubles of Chopper… x_X
^
Most people bought those in bulk- thus getting a full set plus 3 doubles and 1 alt.
Are you supposed to get an alternative in each box? x_X;; (Why did I spent $20 on a alt Robin?)
I wonder if HLJ set something up, because though the little boxes themselves weren't opened, the seal on the big one clearly was.
Woop, Luffy's Family figures ar ein low stock at HLj now too.
I ordered Volume 15 and the american GBA game that came out two years ago off amazon a few days ago. I got the game an hour ago but the GNs I ordered haven't even moved since the 26th. I wonder what the hold up is.
Not enough… : ( I have volume 1-14 of the Viz manga. Where is everyone getting volumes 15-35? I know they're out in Japan but is there a way to get them translated? (In tankobon form, not on the computer)
As far as I know Viz releases the only English version of the manga and they're only at 15.

O_o really? Mine were wrapped nice and neat, nothing opened or banged.
I think the post might have something to do with your dilemma, cuz they randomly open and check packages nowadays :/
(no box was missing, right? You got 10?)
But yeah, your supposed to get ONE alt per box. Its just the way the things are packaged- SUPPOSEDLY (like everyone else got one alt)
I thought you knew that (cuz I remember you saying you were going to buy a second box, but I assmued you got Nami thus buying Robin seperataly)
But that's all assuming…
Knowing that I am a complete whore for Water 7/Galley-La, if I were to order a/one or two data book(s), which would I be flailing and squealing the most at?
Or am I better off just getting Blue (That was the character one, right?) and fawning over the Buggy Crew? Using the search function has given me results of very limited use (although there were some old broken download links for red/blue scans, which would have been pretty nice if I had noticed them a few months ago).
Woop, Luffy's Family figures ar ein low stock at HLj now too.
The thing that sucks about HLJ selling the Luffy's Family set is that…it's randomly selected. I'd rather spend 15 bucks more on eBay to get all ten figures in the set.
Which I did.
HLJ was selling the Family set in one big box so I end up getting all 10 figures.

For real? Oh, yeah I got 10 thankfully. I ordered the Bellemere P.O.P. at the same time, so maybe they did check it. Er, wait, that's not possible because Bellemere and the box had that plastic completely wrapped around each other, if it had been tampered with, there'd surely be a huge hole or something, unless the post office was good enough to wrap it around again with their own stuff.
About the alternatives in each box - that's interesting, I didn't know that at all. You see, I was told something different - supposedly there are only 2 alternative Nami and 2 alternative Robin for every 6 big boxes (60 figurines). Have I been duped or are we just the lucky ones to get the ones with the alternatives?
I thought it was kinda strange that the big box was opened, but I looked on the bright side I thought that HLJ were "making sure" that there was at least 1 character in each box by weighing, but I'm wrong about that.
I had been deciding whether to hold off on the Robin and get a box first, but I thought that the chances were against me. But if what you said was true, I really do have a 50/50 chance of getting her then. I'm only getting a new box because I needed to get a Chopper and Nami for a friend, and have a crack at getting the alternative Robin to complete my collection. I guess maybe, with the extras, I can make up for that money I carelessly spent…
Pics of New OP item
Front
Back
Not sure if bootleg.. I will try to post better pics.. As soon as I can figure out the camera.:getlost:
What is it? >_>
16 blah blah blah
Cool stuff right there, how much did it cost?
Says 2007 and some kind of Art book!@ O.O
EDIT: Ajiro, the keychain was 7.99
Its a cool art book, but I checked around the web and didn't find anything about a 2007 One Piece Anime Movie Art Book, it might be a bootleg.
Maybe it's something produced for the non-Japanese market? I thought OP was fairly popular in Taiwan too.
I recognize a lot of the pictures on that page from the first Color Walk. Could it be that it's just a collection of One Piece images placed on discs? That's what it looks like, but I can't read the page.
I just checked on the page again, and it said the DVD had anime and movie in it. Now I don't know if it means some parts of the anime and one of the movies, but it sounds like a bootleg version of One Piece Animation Log Book. If it was released officially, then the official One Piece site would have something about it.
Edit: Just looked at it a third time and noticed on the front cover there was a image of what the dvd had on it, Movie 8! Now is this movie out on DVD officially? Because if its not then this proves its a bootleg.
Sorry Buuhan, Tashigi at HLJ is officially Discontinued!
almost cries siiiiiiiiiiiiggggh, no surprise.
If you want to spend $ 54.99 for a Tashigi P.O.P figure, they have some at yesasia.com, as well as Bellmere.
:|, I ordered a Tashigi last night when it said Low stock. You think I'll get it or was I too late?

What? Madness! Noooo, its a complete set plus one alt at bulk (like you buy the WHOLE huge package that most stores get and sell individually- which HLJ was selling). Now one alt can me more popular than another, but I don't know the chances.
Everyone I talked to who bought the bulk like me got an alt- I myself called Robin and got her (hell, I could of gave you her, yet I wanted to keep my full set, even tho I lack an alt Nami… its just I've never had a complete set of anything XD)
But as for your box problem, it's pretty weird, yet all I could think of what might have happend I said before.
Now, if it happens again (like when you get your other POP figures) report them- cuz somethings up (but if its the post, not much you can do. They've screwed me over a few times as well ;3; )
Anyways, I'll be editing this post later today after I gets my new figs and stuff from my cuzin~ :D I'm so excited I think I forgot how to spell!
Are you supposed to get an alternative in each box? x_X;; (Why did I spent $20 on a alt Robin?)

Umm, I highly, highly doubt HLJ have tampered with anything o_O I collect A LOT of figures and the way it usually works is that you get a complete set and then the doubles or rares you get are random. Even then, some times the doubles you get are the same with every single box and the rares are exactly that and you're lucky to get even one in your set (like the rare in the first Haruhi figumate set) <_< This has been the case with all the sets I've brought both from HLJ and elsewhere.
If you want to spend $ 54.99 for a Tashigi P.O.P figure, they have some at yesasia.com, as well as Bellmere.
That's $20 more! Screw that.
continues job hunting

I wonder what I'll get this time around, lol. If I get the secret Nami, I'll be looking towards your way.
Hmm it's time I set up a mini-store here.
Umm, I highly, highly doubt HLJ have tampered with anything
Thus the mystery of the opened bulk box remains a mystery.
almost cries siiiiiiiiiiiiggggh, no surprise.
I'll see about securing a Tashigi for ya next month if you still want her. No guarantees, but I'm sitting about 75% on wanting that series. :p
Hell yeah I still want her, even more so with her being $22 at other places. It's just a matter of finally finding a job, here I have poor tang holding items for me and you might join her.
Gyaaah! How hard does it have to be for a no-experience 16-year-old willing to work 9am-9pm everyday who doesn't attend school to get in the way to find a blasted job!

Red and Blue go up to the beginning of Jaya. Yellow goes up to the end of Water 7, if that helps. I have all three, so if you need to know specific details from them I could look it up for you.
So my cuzin bought me:
Going Merry keychain (i might tie a black ribbon to it)
Mugiwara flag~
Pencil board and folder for school stuffs (looks alil bootlegged tho XD)
Zipper charm thinger of Luffy
Z/S Dji <3
And another Ennies Lobby fig which is mother fcuking Chopper… AGAIN -_-
Stupid Chopper, your cute but no one loves you.
Just made a big order from HLJ, Nabbed me a Tashigi right in the nic of time.(Sorry Buuhan :(.)I also got Luffy's family figurines, grand elements yellow, One Piece rainbow, colorwalk 2, and the animation logbook.

w00t! Kino in LA Little Tokyo has got the OP Anni Books now :D They called me just now XD gonna go get my copy tomorrow in the morning :3
Heso!
I have a question. I would like to know if anyone knows where I could look for some rare One Piece plushies. I have seen that Banpresto made a Yagara, Laboon, Arlong's Pet, Iceburg's Mouse, and Hattori. I have plushies of Chopper, Kung Fu Dugong, and Carue that was made by Bandai. I have Suu the Skyfox from Banpresto. Any ideas!
