    It'll probably be goldish plastic underneath, not yellow. It's just painted for that extra shine.

    Yeah they do, but it would be with EMS by default and they wont charge until it ships, meaning the exchange rate fluctuations could either be in your favor or against.

    Thank you. At the current currency conversion rate, the price is $126.19USD. I registered and they did not give me a shipping quote. Only "To be determined". I would guess it will be around $20 if I choose SAL.

    You can email them before purchasing and they'll give you an estimate. Only when they have it in stock and ready to go will they tell you the final amount. EMS for an item the size of Predaking will normally be cheaper than SAL btw.

    Shipping should be about 4000yen EMS assuming a weight of 2kilos. Which at the moment is $7 cheaper than BBTS's sale price before shipping, and with the added bonus of most likely getting it in your home by the time BBTS/TFSource gets theirs in stock.

    I might as well take the gamble and hope the exchange rate will remain the same or even lower. Thanks.

    Im sticking with BBTS they have done well by me and and their customer service and expert packing are worth the price difference to me.

    Why does Amiami have Predaking but not Primus or Unicron?

    Primus and Unicron are exclusive to Toy Hobby in Japan. The stock you see on RK/BBTS/Tfsource etc is probably all coming from Hasbro Hong Kong.

    Awesome, but I would have to eat only beans for 10 years to afford that. :(

    Hobby Search has their preorder up for 12,750 yen, not as cheap as Ami Ami but still better than some other sites.
