1kg figure
Mar. 11th, 2015 04:37 pmWell, Tenso sent me an email to notify me that the Cospa Rin figure had arrived, and boy, did I get a nasty shock. x_x The package actually weighed 1kg! Holy cow. I freaked out about it on MFC and people told me 1kg was a perfectly reasonable weight for a package containing a 1/8 scale figure.
Good grief. o_o 1kg is actually normal for a 1/8 scale figure. In this case, I'm going to have to rethink my collecting a bit. Rin scale figures only. I put some other scale figures for Key works on my wishlist, but I don't know about getting them now. I think I'll just go for the Rin figures and forget about everything else. I don't want to spend so much on shipping x_x
Prize figures and chibi figures (including other characters besides Rin) are totally fair game though. :3 I wanna get the petit nendos~ And the Furyu Complete Figures also. They are quite cheap too usually so I won't have to worry about customs fees.
I thought I'd use Tenso because of their new cheap fees, but looking at the shipping calculator, the handling fee will apparently come up to about 700 yen, making them only slightly cheaper than some proxies. Not worth using for a figure. I guess they are better for very light items. Next time, I'll just use a proxy.
Considering using ProxyRabbit next. They undervalue, which is good.
