shite...that gave me nightmare. ARGHHHhhhhhh my eyes! My beautiful image of sader..i mean saber distorted!!!!!
I cannot look at saber in the same light again lol
btw, plz be reminded that yes...u earn USD4000 in US benefits u only if u dun have to pay for food, transport, accommodation..etc.
At the end of the day, cost of living evens out the difference in currency....methinks.
Haha yeah, and not easy to get USD 4k as salary also. And from what I see in figure.fm for example, majority of US members there also only buy around the same amount of figures each month as us. And, eventhough no tax on toys in US, their shipping cost is higher than us

Oh and for ichiban kuji thingie, there are 2 options of buying it officially; one is to get the 800yen ticket and then tikam, the other one is you have to buy the whole set, which usually equals to the price of all tickets for 1 set (I dunno about Code Geass one, but Macross Frontier one have 100 tickets per set)
