So do you guys have any suggestions of some trusted overseas stores that have good reputations and shipping doesn't cost and arm and a leg to ship to Canada?

The vendors I know of, which are only alternatives in case for some reason, I choose not to go with BBTS (my primary source for 3rd-party toys) is Robot Kingdom and Chimungmung. Both those places are great for Masterpieces too. But, for Masterpieces (official) release, I usually have decent luck getting them from AmiAmi or Hobby Search. Given the amount I get from BBTS and their Pile of Loot system, I really don't even calculate shipping because of the size of the boxes that I get about twice a year from them. So, not sure how much I'd save on one-offs...but, if you want, Robot Kingdom and Chimungmung are two alternatives. You do know you have some Canadian vendors like Automaton Toys and Ages 3 & Up, right? |

Yeah I do buy from Automaton but they recently changed to charging for items in US funds, and the exchange is pretty bad on the Canadian dollar vs the US dollar. So I am just trying to do a little research of my own to see if it is really cheaper to buy from Japan and do the exchange + shipping ect. Some have suggested that this is the way to go as the exchange is more favorable with the yen vs CND. |

Try Google. But, being in Socialist Canada too, I just suck up the exchange rate for these toys. Anything else Bandai-related or official comes from stores like AmiAmi, Hobby Search, Nippon Yasan, and etc. |

But the box presentation and the pictures from their Facebook account got to me. |
