Re: Where do you guys preorder?

Our site sponsors (look to the right) including Automaton Toys, and B&K Collectibles take preorders - and they're Canadian so you don't have to worry about any customs/duties coming across the border, or the exchange rate.

There are other sellers, including board members, who get figures in and sell them at conventions and through local meetups, but I don't think we're allowed to mention if they do preorders because they are not site sponsors.

Have you been ordering MP figures from these sites? If so I suggest you look in to cheaper alternatives. NA for example.

Also worth mentioning Plamoya.com and Anime-Export.com out of Japan and RobotKingdom.com out of Hong Kong.

I have ordered/preordered from all these stores. chimungmung (never had to pay duty yet and very fast shipping to Canada), BBTS, TFSource, capturedprey, Robotkingdom, Automationtoys , Kool toyz, Agesthreeandup, I try to avoid stores like Toyarena or hobbylinkjapan that ship using UPS or Fed Ex because of their high brokerage fees.

I've never had issues with HLJ. I hear BBTS orders usually get hit crossing into Canada. Automaton is good to deal with, and I've recently heard that chimungmung is good as well. Currently waiting for a package from Uncle Billy, apparently the last china based seller to receive china based toys :/
