Haha apparently Good Smile Company Japan doesn't distribute GSC stuff. They distribute products from many other manufacturers too

I know that FREEing, GIFT, Max Factory, Native, Aniplex, Phat Company, Wave, Penguin Parade are all under GSC. But I didnt know Kaiyodo is distributed by GSC.

Native is actually a division of Max Factory (just like Skytube is to Alphamax), just that it seems like GSC wants to be PG13 instead of 18SX so it seems like there are no obvious connections between the two on the surface.

Yup, that seems to be the case. Everything on the GSC website must be kept clean I guess

Now i get it. KC is Knight Connection. They are known to be an 'official distributor' of GSC's products here but i still dont get it. Being an official distributor their pricing is still higher than what some local and smaller shops offer us.

Seasoned collectors will probably not give a rat's ass about their existence and source what they want directly from Japan. Even with EMS shipping, EMS, not RSAL, the total amount is still lesser and cheaper. As for avoiding taxes, that's not really hard to pull off.

Possibly so...but I believe they don't do they're own retail to end users and only supply to retailers. Not too sure, but I guess the retailers do get better prices from them

do they get the pre-order bonus stuff from gsc as well?

IC, no wonder can't find any pre order online. I think aniplex is better than freeing in term of color and quality. I never see the actual figure just view from photo and video. Aniplex is more expensive than freeing though.

Do u manage to get the previous series? they all look awesome!

Expensive because they are exclusive. I am currently waiting for their Saekano girls. Once open for order, eyes sure bleeding 3 summore

aigis yukata version po open

Just returned from Kastam. And the result is...

Will still be confiscated Tried to explain about the clothes usually purchase separately (I even brought seamless doll as sample), but they say they will assess only on what's inside the parcel (which is just the figure in naked apron). Not helping when 5 of 6 officers who present in the room for the rayuan are Muslim women (one of them even said "sebagai Muslim macam ni tak boleh" ), and the Kastam director just agree to the verdict of the majority of the officers (those 6). The director did commented on there is no definite guideline about my case; what considered lucah for some might not be the same for others. But since all 6 officers agreed the figure is lucah, he have to agree as well. He did said I can appeal again another time (most probably hinting it could be passed depending on officers in-charge).

In summary, the figurine (Freeing 1/4 Kuroki Mikage) considered as lucah because:
- skimpy clothes
- sexy pose
- not articulated enough to be considered as a doll

Not sure whether I want to appeal again (maybe this time bringing other static 1/4 figurines with decent clothes on), but for now I can just deemed the RM 840 for the figure burned

Ouch, dude. I feel for you. RM840 is not a small amount.

How about at least asking the customs to return the parcel to the deliverer and ask for a re-delivery at a later date, or a refund?

Not applicable for this item; applicable only for item that need permit or item that was not claimed after the 30 days period ended

ouch... RM840 gone like that

oh dear! that doesn't sound good... not good at all

this is at the klia customs? wonder if there's a directive or you were just plain unlucky they declared it as a gift thus raising the alarm somewhat

i've got a couple with exposed boobies on po. thinking of whether to redirect shipment now

The latter. The figure itself is NSFW from the start

sigh... cuba appeal lor. otherwise



by the way, when she said "sebagai muslim macam ni tak boleh", was she referring to you?
