Hey! Thinking of buying some of those absolutely fabulous Dinotales figures by Kaiyodo? (There are currently seven sets -- sets 1, 6, and 7 each have two color variants; sets 1-4 each also have "secret" figures that are rather rare.) If you're a fan of serious, accurate prehistoric animal art, these are a must. Most of the ebay sellers, though, are in Asia -- they're reputable dealers, as far as I know (I've bought from them several times), but please allow me to make one recommendation: if you buy, get shipping by air! Shipping by ground inevitably means by boat, which has three main problems: (1) items are often lost; (2) when not lost, it takes a loooooooong time; and, most importantly, (3) when not lost, packages are often damaged, sometimes severely (e.g., with gaping holes torn in them). Air shipping does cost more, I grant, but it is well worth it for the added security it provides. This practice actually applies to any overseas purchase (I've had similar problems with items ordered from Europe, though not via ebay). If the air shipping cost isn't exorbitant, I highly, highly recommend using it! Hope this helpful...dinogami
