Hey guys.

I was wondering where I can find good, legit, sites that sells Anime toys/merchandise that aren't bootlegged. I looked around for awhile yet could only find bootleg sites (plus most of the things I've found on eBay are all fake). I am looking for the FullMetal Alchemist pocket watch. I don't shop for merchandise that often (mostly DVDs) so if its not available for sale anymore I completely understand.

If anyone can give me a hand with my hunt I'd very much appreciate it. Smile

One of the best for figures, models, and other items is Hobby Link Japan, and they have the watch:

If you're loooking for figures i'd say to also look at AmiAmi. I cannot provide the exact link from where I am right now.

Sometimes Rightstuf and Robert's Anime Corner store have a small selection of figures and merchandise. Otherwise take a look at the 'official figures' thread wherever it is, I think some people link some stuff in there.

Is that the pocket watch you're looking for? I just did a quick amazon search without checking the authenticity etc.

I prefer these guys over HLJ, faster shipping and cheaper prices for the most part:

I quite like Hobby Search, too. One of the advantages with them is that you can collect points to put toward future purchases.

(Don't be confused by their web address, it's called Hobby Search.)

When I lived in the Seattle area there was a really cool toy store, they went all online after I moved (so I heard). They had stuff like Vash's sunglasses, so they might also have the watch you are interested in.

Kicks Hobby Japan was the name.
