Talking Anyone have a local source for this?

I was wondering if anyone knows a place in the Bay Area that carries this: http://www.kotobukiya.co.jp/item/x2yuna_main.html

Also, are there any good sources for Kotobukiya products in general around here?
Huck, I'm looking at you!

If you're patient, you could always hit Fanime Con at the end of May in San Jose.

Yeah, New Type hasn't had a shop in years now... they just do conventions now from what I hear.
But I'm impatient! I don't wanna wait for a convention!

Hmm! Not a bad source. Thanks Batto!
The reason why I wanted a local source was because I wanted to see it in person

Hmm... thanks for the sources guys, I'll check them out.
I think Henry's/Yes Anime on Geary has it too, but I don't think it's the original Japanese version.
I'm looking for the JDM version b/c the workmanship's better than HK or overseas version
C'mon Huck or Eric, I KNOW you guys know where to find this!!!!

I would suggest YesAnime or the comic shop on the next block (I can never remember their damn name). Or take Krinkov's advice.

Heroes Club is another possibility but be careful. You should be cool as long as you aint buying a resin kit or vinyl figures from them. They carry a lot of scary grey market shiz.

Thanks for the info Huck! BTW, Kid Robot doesn't carry Kotobukiya products, right?
And Krinkov, I like the cosplay Paine mo' bettah. You still got a pic of her?

Well, just to update this thread... I bought my purty lil Yuna statuette today at YesAnime (aka Henry's) on Geary and 19th today for $22.99, cheapest I could find in the Bay Area. So if anyone else wants one, get it here

Damn the workmanship is NICE on this figure
