A guide for this piece: about $160, 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.

Secretbase's Big Scale X-Ray Godzilla in the glow in the dark version, about 40 cm tall and still in its unopened shipping carton.
The Piece
The figure is cast in milky luminous vinyl with the skeleton visible inside the body, the X-Ray treatment for which the studio is known. The stance is the upright, heavy tailed Godzilla of the early films, with rows of dorsal plates down the back. It charges pale green in the dark.
Described as new and unused, the carton never opened.
The Tokyo Soft Vinyl Scene
Since the late 1990s a small group of Tokyo studios has revived the soft vinyl methods of the 1960s toy trade: wax sculpts, metal moulds, vinyl pulled by hand and paint sprayed through masks. Runs are short, colourways are rarely repeated, and many releases are sold only at a single event or by lottery. The result is a collecting field that sits between the toy shelf and the gallery, followed as closely abroad as it is at home.
