A guide for this piece: about $146, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

Freight piece: please confirm delivery before purchase
This piece travels in a crate or by freight rather than standard mail, and may need careful dismantling before it can be packed. The shipping shown at checkout is an estimate. Japonista reserves the right to determine the final handling, crating and freight cost when your order is received, according to the piece, the destination and carrier conditions at that time.
We advise requesting a delivery quote before checkout. If the final cost is higher than the amount paid, we send the difference for your approval before dispatch. Your piece is held for you until it is settled.

A very large figure of the first Tiger Mask as wrestled by Satoru Sayama, made by Chara Pro in an edition of two hundred and kept in its display case.
The Piece
The wrestler stands with fists on hips in blue tights flashed with orange, yellow laced boots and the gold and black hood. A fabric cape printed with a tiger head and the name accompanies him, and the case is lined in red.
The figure is described as clean. The case has damage, shown in the photographs, and there is no outer carton.
Sayama in the Round
At Kajiwara's suggestion, New Japan Pro-Wrestling created a real Tiger Mask to coincide with the sequel anime, and on 23 April 1981 Satoru Sayama walked to the ring at the Kuramae Kokugikan in Tokyo as Tiger Mask to face Dynamite Kid. He left New Japan in 1983 and later wrestled for the UWF as The Tiger and as Super Tiger.
Chara Pro's large figure portrays that first Tiger Mask in an edition of 200, with his printed fabric cape and a red-lined display case; the case is damaged, as photographed, and there is no outer carton. More Showa character toys are gathered on the soft vinyl shelf, and our guide to Showa tin plate and soft vinyl toys explains how they were made.
