Japanese vintage hi-fi from Japan: a Sansui AU-D607 amp at ¥21,700 and a Technics SL-1200MK3D at ¥46,000 in September 2026, the 100 V issue and shipping.

Tomica and Tomica Limited Vintage from Japan: standard cars are ¥550, Tomica Premium about ¥990 and TLV NEO ¥1,500–¥7,590; diecast is cheap to ship.

Japanese golf clubs from Japan: HONMA, XXIO and Yonex drivers run ¥12,350–¥24,500, but a full set breaks the EMS size limit, so buy singles via a proxy.

Ultraman merch from Japan: the franchise turns 60 in 2026 and Ultraman Teo is on air, yet most toys stay Japan-only. We cover sofubi and how to buy.

Evangelion merch from Japan: the 30th anniversary kuji is ¥790 a try in Japanese shops only, so overseas fans buy resale; the A prize resells at ¥7,500.
