A guide for this piece: about $134, 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.

The Big Scale Mazinger Z produced by Secretbase with the Tokyo bag maker Porter, finished in black and offered new in its printed carton.
The Piece
The robot is rendered entirely in black and charcoal, with the chest fins, horns and fists picked out only by changes of sheen. The kraft carton is stamped in black with the Mazinger emblem and the names of both houses.
It is described as new and unopened.
Mazinger Z in Black
Go Nagai's Mazinger Z was serialised in Weekly Shonen Jump from October 1972, and Toei Animation's television series ran on Fuji TV from December 1972 to September 1974.
Secretbase opened in Harajuku on 24 December 2001, and its X-RAY figures set a clear vinyl body over an embedded skeleton or mechanism, a treatment its founder HIDDY says he was the first to use at this scale. This Big Scale figure, made with Porter, is all black and charcoal in a kraft carton stamped with both names, new and unopened. More robots are on the anime and character shelf. More figures stand on the soft vinyl shelf, and our guide to kaiju soft vinyl from Marusan and Bullmark traces the Showa makers behind the form.
