    That's been my problem with these too.

    It looks like these two might be 2,500 yen each though, that's not too bad....

    KT's charging 5500 a piece for them, I guess its time to call celga... Any idea how that would work out with celga fees etc?

    Charactics mini Warudos and Invader sets usually retail for 5-6,000 yen in Japan.

    Is that a SET of 3 or each? I think the price we're seeing on the new 2 here from KT are EACH not for both.

    No kidding? I could be totally worng too, wouldn't be the first time...

    Yeah 5500 each put me out I'm affraid.

    Celga might not be a terrible option if they are on a site that will let celga buy from them....I think it would be like $12 in fees ($10 buying fee plus $2 for bank fees) plus shipping...

    yes a set of 3 at original retail, which KT isn't, as they're secondary market distributors

    For example, this set will probably be around 5,500-6,000 yen at WF:

    Even if you bought them through Celga on YJA, you would have to buy them at less than 1500 above retail to come out ahead.

    I imagine S7 will be getting these, as with other Charactics items, but their prices are usually comparable to K-T + shipping.

    Charactics mini King Walder set, clear colors with internal organs insert - $130 per set
    Charactics mini King Walder set, clear uncolored with internal organs insert - $120 per set
    Charactics mini Invader set with spaceship in metallic colors - $130 per set

    all ouch

    this is why i don't own any of them

    all charactics stuff is way up there

    those little 3 or 4 inch matangos cost 50 bucks or more it seems

    you can find m1 matangos at 9 inches for that price or less
