Super stoked to land one of these, which came in from Japan yesterday. :supz:

Can't tell you how long I've been trying to buy one. Now the void has been filled. If you look hard enough there are a couple more still up for sale in Japan. Of course none of this would have been possible if it was not for Bugle and Archangel's advice in a post elsewhere about buying stuff from Japan. :tonqe: So thanks guys. I even bought a brand new old skool keyring still in it's original wrapping at the same time:

I'm still looking out for a Piazza keyring. Who knows. One might show up.

That's pretty cool, lucky they didn't make the full size thing though!

I used archangel's recommendation http://hayatonka.com/

Ewan was his name. He even called me from Japan one day to tell me my inbox was full and his emails were bouncing. He had a kiwi accent too, but I won't hold it against him. :)

Hahaha awesome! Good to hear you went through Ewan! He's a great guy, and although I haven't actually gone ahead with any full transactions (it was more hunting for rare stuff - poor bugger) he's always been great to deal with. If anyone else follows suit, tell him Eli the Gemini nut from Adelaide sent ya! :D
