Unfortunately, I'm about 1 1/2 hours away by Shinkansen. I'll just wait until the next day, when they go on sale in my city instead. I'm only interested in the Movie objectformers.

Lucky Japan, I did order the first wave of deluxe figs, and hope they'll be here soon.

For what it's worth, this helped:
