I'm hoping to pickup maybe three or four boxes of these as reviewed by Mr. Bell. Greathobbies and Pacificfront don't have them listed. I'm willing to have them shipped from overseas but want someone/store that is trustworthy and not too expensive on shipping.

It looks like HWJapan might have them. Has anyone ordered through them and will they ship to the states?

Anthony, yes and yes. HWJapan is a pretty good operation (they're the retail division of Aoshima). Excellent service and good pricing. They do ship to the US and I've done business with them a good bit (sometimes they have stuff HLJ doesn't and vice-versa)-- I just got a package from them last week, in fact.
Just remember that SAL, while cheaper, does take much longer than EMS, which is only a few days. If you're in no rush, SAL works fine and is how I have 90% of my stuff sent.
