This is a great haul. I miss the aesthetic of AEC. Big, solid chunky figures that had presence and substance.

Did you order anything else with it that would have split the shipping or something? Here's my receipt, it comes to just over $191 and I ordered back in July. Apparently the pre-order guarantee only saved 345yen or $2.34, the figure alone would be $165.
Edit: Wait a minute, the price on the receipt isn't the same as the price they said I was charged in the email. I'm guessing that's the Japanese taxed price rather than the duty free price (I bed Japan does away with that now soon.).
Despite all that I just checked and my actual charge was $188.¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That's probably it then, they do weird things with the shipping when two things are ordered with different release dates. Weird that your Bee hasn't shown up yet, I got mine along with the Triple Takeover set and Brave Exkaiser last week. But then I've had Amazon Japan swap my DHL shipping out for some other company I've never heard of that took two weeks to arrive before.
Anyway, Stopped at the local Walmart I don't go to very often anymore and the Transformers section was almost completely empty aside from some TFOne stuff. All of the Legacy and Studio Series stuff at all price points was gone. Only thing new they had was Retro Gears (no Bee) and Swapticons. Picked up the Swapticon Optimus and Megatron sets. I thought the twisting would be a little more involved, but they are nice to fidget with so mission accomplished I guess.

I couldn't resist but to get them all!
Also, the Naruto X-Over came from Amazon earlier this week.

This morning I found a restock of Blokees TFOne boxes. This time I ended up with Hound, a second Wheeljack and a second Death Tracker. Getting two duplicates out of six boxes with 10 possible figures is a bit of a bummer, but at least they're only $5 and Death Trackers are trooper builders. This is the second time I've found one full case and one empty case sitting on the shelf, really makes me think there's a way to figure out what's in the boxes and someone is taking all the Primes/Orions, Megatrons and Bees. I looked all over and couldn't find any codes or stamps.

Not on the picture, I found a legends Universe Beachcomber in perfect condition. I already had it so I gave the spare to my friend.
Next is the minicon Knockdown from the 2008 box set, and the Minicon Bank by his lonesome. Both in perfect condition.
As for the minicon Thunderwing missing his nosecone and arms-wings, I found some T-Rex-in-a-cage toy set at Marshall's for some custom project. In it, there was a pair of guns with ball-joint made to fit on the included copter or jeep. But it was a perfect fit on that Minicon! So it makes for an original spaceship and the bot have now gun-arms.
And finally, a DOTM Specialist Ratchet with a broken windshield. By luck, there was the top half of a DOTM deluxe Ratchet in that same box-o-scrap. So that corpse donated its windows to the Specialist. The cherry on top is that I found his gun too!
I bet that box-o-scrap will still deliver some more unexpected treasures sooner or later.

Well, the answer no, that's no the case. This morning I picked up two more boxes and got an Orion Pax and a D-16! Sweet! Now I just have to keep buying to see if I can find a B-127 or Vector Prime.

First, the
exclusive leader TF1 Optimus. Used, but including shipping, it amounted around the same price as a leader bought locally. Next, I finally pulled the trigger on the G1 Platinum Trypticon. It was brand new at only 14k yen... and I had to pay as much in taxes and shipping.
I should have bought it way back when it was available at Canadian Amazon.
Oh well, it could have been worse. I could have bought it from eBay.

A Looney Tunes mug for my dad, a small geode to break for my mom, and I'll try some Blokees for the first time with a double dose of RotB Primals.

Anyway, I'd love an Overcharge at that price. Unfortunately, when factoring taxes and shipping, I barely save the equivalent of my local sales taxes.
I'll bid my time. It'll be on true sale at Canadian Amazon sooner or later.
