I grabbed them from a third party where Amazon fulfills it, and they ended up being pretty much exactly the same price they would have been on HLJ. If those are also gone now, then sure, may not be the best choice any longer.

I recommend canceling your order for them there and grabbing from somewhere like Amazon Japan while there are still a handful available, or just wait for the stateside e-tailers to get them.

Does Amazon Japan ship to US?
Varies by item. If Amazon themselves is the seller, or if it's a third party seller where Amazon fulfills, things usually do, but not always. I don't have any idea what the criteria is.


Funny enough one of the big criteria is food, so any variation of a candy kit, even a sealed case won't be available to ship. If it does it'll get stopped from leaving the country.

I've heard the molds were lost/destroyed. What I didn't know was the boat/ship carrying the molds sunk.

That's what I always heard, hope it wasn't an urban myth. One thing I know that's a myth, some KO company hired divers to get the molds for their use.

I may have to call on OceanGate to have their submersible Titan to retrieve the molds from the bottom of the ocean.

Steel molds and salt water are a terrible combination! :lol: Those things are well beyond use now.

I told myself no repaints. This line is expensive. However I am weak, and after seeing the images I will purchase it once preorders are up.
