You gotta look at this way.. I don't think they will be producing many of these kits.. plus Yamato is a small company and outsources their manufacturing methods. I've learned to accept that sometimes things are unreasonable, but you also have to see how it would cost the toy company. Remember people in Yamato, they have employees to pay. A toy company has to make some profit. I've accepted the fact that if you really want the item you have to find a way. ... sigh.. overtime here i go.
