Searching For Pokemon Toy

I've been searching long and hard for a particular Pokemon Rotom Heat figure. I've googled it extensively, but to no avail. If anyone knows where I might find this for purchase, your help would be much appreciated.

Also, as a heads up, there are a few similar Rotom toys newly released in japan.

Ah yes, I've seen those. If I can't get my hands on this particular one those will be my backup. I want this one specifically because I have a set of my favorite Pokemon from this finger puppet series standing on my shelf excepting Rotom-H. It would be nice if it was the of similar size.
 
I don't have any pokémon toys, shade is covering his own insecurities
 
So, it's really rare, and your idea is to rob thousands of innocent Japanese kids of the chance to get one just so you can put it up for display on a dusty shelf?

That's sick, man.

If my sisters don't play with them, yes. (They will)
There's a Japanese hobby shop in town with those (they're called "kids" I believe) but I don't think I've ever seen a Rotom-Heat. Check out http://pkmncollectors.livejournal.com and see if someone there is selling it.

I checked their entire store list. No luck, but thanks anyway.
 
m rock, I think that's the stupidest post I've ever read, and I've read lmitchell posts

i have a gigantic chasm of a vagina
 
yeah thats a kid figure. they are about $2 new in japan, $3-$4 if you buy them in the usa. i dont think i would ever call a kid figure rare (outside of shiny versions, certain clear versions or lottery versions), they are sold absolutely everywhere in japan. you can buy entire lots of them off yahoo japan but you aren't likely to find them on ebay. firestorm posted a link to the best place to find them but you do have to be a member.

i would pay no more than $6 and shipping for a boxed one. that one is from the diamond and pearl sets which were pretty plentiful.

edit: the pkmncollectors store list is not a good thing to go by. you definitely want to check new sales posts on the front page, a lot of those stores have not been updated in ages.

edit 2: just did a search on yahoo japan auctions (type in the japanese namee of rotom durr) and there are kids of every form up for 100 yen or less. using a middleman would make it cost more but maybe you could buy a kid lot instead and split fees with people?
 
At first the word "Kid" threw me off. (understandably)
I checked back a few months on pokmncollectors... still nothing but thanks for the advice.

Could you explain that a bit more? Because I'm not really sure how to pay 100 yen. (which is dirt cheap, wow you weren't kidding about how cheap these things are)
EDIT: nvm
This is one of the wonderful things about doing international business with credit cards. They charge your card and make the conversion to the foreign currency, and the conversion rate is usually at least as favorable as it would be if you bought a bank draft in the foreign currency.

if you want to buy something on yahoo japan you probably want to use a middleman service like FromJapan or Noppin. you put in a deposit before you bid, and the service will bid for you. they will charge you extra fees for use which are usually outlined on their site. the reason for using a middleman service to bid is because most if not all sellers on Y!J will not ship outside of japan. of course if you know anyone in japan it would be cheaper to have them bid and mail it to you later. good luck in your quest for rotom :U
