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.

Seven sealed sets of the Medicom Toy VCD pairing Baby Milo, dressed as Dr. Tenma's scientist, with Astro Boy, made with A Bathing Ape.
The Piece
Each window box in green camouflage holds two vinyl figures side by side: Milo in a white lab coat and Atom in his black trunks and red boots, both in the rounded, simplified style of the Vinyl Collectible Dolls line. The title DR. MILO AND ASTRO BOY runs along the base of the box.
All seven are new and unopened and are sold together as one group.
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.
