Good call, Njål. You just beat me to the punch.

Is there any way to translate that to English? I tried the method on their site, it didn't really work.

Well, I can't complete checkout without something in the "Furigana" field, something about characters or roman numerals.

I just put "1" and it worked. That was strange.

Just fill in your given name or whatever you like, it's really only for names written in one of the Japanese character sets (iirc, to help with pronounciation, as the characters can mean and be read differently). As long as you fill in something it'll work, and be ok.

Nice, it's supposed to ship Tuesday. $10 for 2-5 days instead of a few weeks is worth it to me. I don't have to actually worry about customs, do I? I've never ordered anything from Japan before.

Actually, items as large as this will almost always get a free upgrade to DHL Express if you chose the least expensive shipping option.
I have no idea whether you'll have to worry about customs on this.

I've had about five big orders come in from amazon.jp and I have yet to get nailed for customs. I live in the states and by your collection, I'm going to assume that you do as well. So, I wouldn't worry about it, even though I am leary of anything related to DHL.

Good to know, visitor Q. If I like it when it gets here (and I assume I'll love it), I'll probably pick up another one for a gift. I never shop for Christmas early, but I might make an exception.

I just got the Hellboy 3 DVD Director's Cut w/Collectible Bust, I'm very impressed with the amount of extras on the DVDs!!

Now I've got Sonny from I, Robot and the Hellboy bust watching over my DVDs. I need one more for the trifecta..
