Friends, two heads-ups for the very near future:

1: I plan to make the first batch of 50 NF-104A conversion sets available from 27th April, I need to do packaging/boxing now, the components are all there.

2: I just read that Japan Post has implemented a duties/tariff pre-payment system so I will be able to ship to the US via Japan Post with all duties and fees paid in advance in my shop. That's great news, the downside is the payment on my side goes via a separate app (Zonos) and the implementation is not all that easy. It's ONLY by mobile phone (the web app isn't connected to Japan Post) and uses AI with photo goods recognition. This OF COURSE doesn't recognise and categorise scale model parts correctly. And my label printer isn't connected to my phone or wifi either. But I will try to overcome all the issues asap, hopefully in time for the NF release. Mabe I will delay the release by a day or two if it means I can have US shipping ready for it.
