Actually, if that were the case I'd be out extorting governments. But I did find some good stuff.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dingsan.wordpress.com&blog=3850618&post=180&subd=dingsan&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<span style="font-size:11px;"><strong>Overview:</strong>
<a href="http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm56/dingsan/GUNPLA/IMG_4518.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft" src="http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm56/dingsan/GUNPLA/IMG_4518.jpg" alt="" width="138" height="104" /></a>This was a kit I bought because it seemed like I was getting a bargain. I paid $15 CAD at a super-asian mall here in Toronto, which was decidedly cheaper than the $24 for 1/144 Gundams. I would've paid up to $20 for this at the time, since I just love the Flag design from Gundam 00, especially the colors on Graham's custom Flag.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dingsan.wordpress.com&blog=3850618&post=36&subd=dingsan&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<span style="font-size:11px;"><a href="http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm56/dingsan/GUNPLA/03-0-RV059.jpg"><img class="alignleft" src="http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm56/dingsan/GUNPLA/03-0-RV059.jpg" alt="" width="104" height="104" /></a>The Revoltech ARX-8 Laevatein is here! Well, almost here. August 15th seems to be the Japanese release date (<a href="http://www.j-hobby.com/kms_jpn/shop/prd_detail.asp?dept_id=136&#38;sku=0-RV059">Kaiyodo Online Store</a>), and I will assume that September 30th is date most North American distributors get their hands on this (<a href="http://www.toyslogic.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&#38;products_id=4451">ToysLogic</a>). As for costs, it's ¥2590 (~$24.73 CAD) compared to $25.99 USD (~$26.31 CAD). Supposedly, the original price of the item from ToysLogic is $32.99 USD (it's currently on sale, although how $26 for a 12cm toy <em>which I can't even build</em> can be considered a sale is beyond me). Shipping from the States back to Canada is also quite expensive, but luckily purchases under $200 CAD do not require duties to be paid. Probably, buying directly from Japan will be the cheaper way. Plus, you get to have it earlier.</p>
