It is hard to tell which way is more profitable for them. They take all the profit of this directly ordered items, instead letting distributors and retailer taking a cut. They also only need to made the ordered numbers plus a few spears so they don't need a big warehouse or sell unpopular items at great discount.

If only they can handle international orders, we wouldn't have a problem. May be one day Bandai and Yamato would consider hiring someone like HLJ to handle oversea order for them.

Hi CF18, I just tried ordering at the Tamashii webshop for the Alto armored packs and found that they do accept foreign credit cards. They can't ship it out of Japan though. So if you have a friend/relative or a proxy mail service in Japan you're good to go.

Me Likey Bandai Valks!
