LG-10 arcee and LG-11 for 65 shipped from japan? Is that worth it?

Are the takara worth it for the increase in price.

I search every internet site I can ... you can find reasonable prices.... walmart legends 6.46! they are gone now but I got shrapnel and tailgate... free shipping too

There are some ridiculous prices out there for TF so I just keep searching and be patient.

As well too me everything is up for negotiation Im always asking ways to cost cut and better deals on combined shipping so they wernt from 14 US to 9 US.

IMHO the Takara versions are more toon-accurate...there are some good comparison photos out there...both Hasbro and Takara versions are really nice but the Takara version is worth a premium because they are cleaner and more accurate!

Also (at least so far in Ontario) I can only find these two at Boitique shops like SilverSnail or ComicBook Shoppe so even the Hasbro versions cost at least $22 each!

Bottom line, that's a good deal!

If you spend so much time searching the Internet, you would think you would be the authority on what a good deal is.

Oh wait! You meant:

Are the takara worth it for the increase in price.

These are available from us online for 32$. Add tax & shipping= $45.
Conversion = 55$. Rough numbers of course.

possible to get customs & handling fees about $12, but not definite.
So add half of that = total $61.

So for comparible pricing you get:

Japan:
-slow shipping (assumed from "free")
-opened
-no comic (assumed)

US:
-faster shipping
-MOC
-Comic

The Hasbro/Takara differences aren't that much.
So I recommend US order.
