Looking for a Way to Sell Toys Oversea

Recently just got rejected by a well-known toy company from the US. I was told my anime series toys like Figma BRS and Robot Spirit Full Metal Panic! doesn’t worth much in the market even with MISB/MIB condition. Geezz…what the hell is going on? Selling Anime toys are getting harder than ever.

I am completely at a loss in finding a local toy marketplace to sell anymore and had to start looking elsewhere since there are no buyers. It is noticeable increasing number of collectors quit toy collections over the years and the toy buy/sell marketplace is shrinking as well due to fuck up price discrimination for the sake of getting rid of it. Another problem I am seeing here is the Brunei expensive shipping rate posted worldwide. I need to inquire regarding the box size and find out if I am doing it wrong on the website. Can you imagine posting to the US with a shoe box size in DHL cost BND 300.00 for BND 50.00 value item? I have no idea how this is happening but I going to check out with the DHL office if there are any fixed-rate postings around the world since I sometimes do get inquiries outside of Brunei asking about my toys.

Ouch! Two Months of Private Warehouse Orders

I guess storing too many orders within two months in the HLJ private warehouse really hit me hard with the shipping fee this time. Some orders are a mistake on my part, but well, can't be help. Heh!

The photo speaks everything (not all really) except the Kotobukiya parts are still both pack together. The ordering were quite special this time around. I mostly hunt for classic kits and was happy seeing the classic Gundam F91 Silhouette Formula kits arrived! I really can't wait to build them but I wanted to grab more Gundam F90 and F91 kits before starting the projects next year. The good news is, they are pending to be re-release this coming December!

Kane’s Wrath & Soul Storm Arrived

 

Yes, it already arrived in the post office yesterday. I am glad it arrived to kill my boring time watching Anime all the time. I was surprised at first when I saw my packaging. It was quite small no matter how you look at it and my mind was like. ‘Where’s my mouse?’ Happily, everything was pack together nicely and beautifully without any damages after open at the custom.

 

EA Games this time roll out a very good deal for the Kane Wrath limited editions, which is quite better than last year. The first Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars limited edition I brought, EA bundle with GDI t-shirt, Plastic bag (very handy), Razer Mantis Control mouse surface pad and making of DVD disc. For Kane’s Wrath, EA decided to bundle with Razer DeathAdder mouse and of course including making of DVD, Red Alert 3 Beta key and coupon for special map download at the official website. What can I say? I simply love it!

 

I wonder what EA decided to do with the next upcoming FPS Tiberium FPS game, maybe a Razer keyboard. Damn I wish that happen and I will definitely buy it. Ok, it’s not that I want to get a good deal only out from the EA. I am also a RTS lover and I like stories. C&C is one of my favorite RTS collections.

 

Now, Dawn of War 40K: Soul Storm. Finally joining with the brothers! I have to say the last expansion was a good purchase for my collections and I am looking forward for the next upcoming Dawn of War 2. Soul Storm is just another Dark Crusade game like but with two new races. I was expecting new stories on the fourth collections, but somehow it doesn’t happen. Well, I guess I’m going to play after I finished Kane’s Wrath first, and also a good chance to try out Company of Heroes: Opposing Force and Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance demo includes in the extra DVD. Damn!

 

Anyway, back to my Kane mission!

Odin, Nohohon, Disgeas and My Otome Arrived!!!

Finally arrived! I have been waited for at least two more weeks. I have no idea what was the delay or it is because it was Chinese New Year? I’m not really sure about it but Chinese people would start working after four or five days rest. I first would thought it might be my second time losing it at the air freight for this year. Last year I lost it as badly as those were limited figures and my mini idog. Anyway, check out the photos!

Disgeas - I was lucky to get a secret character, not sure who she is but I only know the Magic knight appear on the anime.

Mai Otome - I didn't get Mai or Arika and even Juliet. Like both of them instead I hit a two Chie Hallard and Nobue. I hate Nobue and I decided to put on the helmet. It look more cooler with Chie together. It would be a perfect match if I got another one.

Nohohon Zoku - I have been thinking about getting one of these TOMY products. It looks pretty nice putting in your room especially for decorating. If you don't what Nohohon can do, it moved its head itself power by the lights from the solar panel built at the bottom (see the picture). You don’t need the battery to run this decorate toys.

 

It was a smart moved ordering 5 million sales achievement limited color Nohohon after I saw it. I should have gotten two but never mind I finally got one for myself. My next one going to be a bit bigger!!!

Final Fantasy Limited Collection – Woot!!! Odin!!! Finally I got it. I am crazy FF fans and I will tried to get it once I seen it. Right now, I am focusing on June getting Disney Kingdom Heart third release figures.

I forgot to upload into my Facebook album. You guys can check it out. Follow this link! Love the Chocobo ^^! Another good news is that, the previous price I won from Coolermaster finally shipped out last week. However, bad news for me is that the X-Craft 360 has no stock and they asked me if I want to change the price. My answer is no and I choose to wait. Since I'm not really urgent to used it. Hope to show you guys soon!

LEGO Always Rock!

Yeah! LEGO really rock! Many parents in Brunei normally think it was just a simply toys for kids to play and throw away when they grown up. I gave mine away to my uncle son after I stop keeping the Lego toy in my messy room. I am now thinking about asking it back! ^^; HA! Cursed the recent discovery few great LEGO community website like Mecha hub. It sure making me feel guilty when looking at so many creative users making so many robot that I ever wished to do back in my younger age time. I don't really know what I should do in my current 25 life now and asking question if I should start buying LEGO or not. People might find me funny or weird who still playing LEGO. But hey, like I said earlier. LEGO is not just a simple toys and believed me, you can do a LOT of creative things with it. Currently there are two of my favorite LEGO mecha I found today. Check out their impressive work at Legostyle (Japanese) and jehkay (Singaporean, I think!). Other recommended site I would encourage you guys visit Brickshelf.
