Oh, i made a mistake earlier - this aniplex's Homucofer can be ordered from GSC's partner shops, which means although she is under Aniplex, probably Good Smile manufactured it (notice the base is very similar to Godoka). That means a must buy for the fans. Probably they wont get a 2nd chance without paying like a boss after release.

I am tempted to buy knowing the fact that price would definitely go up....but i will think i will stay away PO her.

Keep bullets for something else..

Yup, 15k is 600buck territory. The fact she is limited - add rm 100-200 on her as the in-stock price tag after release in local shops. sweat.gif

Who was it already ah, who was afraid she might cost 12000 yen lol. Ended up a lot higher. Nowadays I can accept up to 13k easily, beyond that have to think twice. 12k is RM400 territory, still ok to me.

From gsc website, note that the 15k is still before tax.
It sure will reach higher (tax + ship + custom + local shop commission)

Or is there other way can get it?

Tax, depends on luck actually. I have bought over RM 600 also escape tax in the past. My friend RM 260 also kena tahan in customs 2-3 days but didnt get taxed.
Shops which order in bulk, of course get taxed. But if order from GSC directly i think chances of getting taxed is very high.

Yep, normal figures that are nothing special, price drop by 20-30% after release is normal; can go up to 60% if overstock (like some Kotobukiya figures). Nowadays i dont preorder anymore (except Native and Orchid Seed figures) unless exclusive figure, or, i sense high demand + possibility of price going up/remaining high after release.

I only have 1 preorder remaining now, Super Sonico Cheerleader by Orchid Seed. I did the right thing preordering Orchid Seed's Alleyne and Kotobukiya's Dark Olivia; and many others i wait after release only buy.

That Homucifer sold out very soon at most places, aside using forwarders/proxies, seems like there's no other way to get her...

Just now when I tried to get this figure with 6480JPY (iirc), A/B status (to replace the A/B Suguha which gone while ago, even the brand new one is still available, but I'm not going to get it), another person got it ahead instead....
