And about Hobby Search shipping cost, how could it be expensive? I mean, when I look at the help pages, I think amiami, hobby stock, and other online retailers use the same shipping cost, the Japan postal cost. Well, never tried to order from them though
I honestly do not see any difference in the flight badge. There is a one letter change in the item description, is all. So its still up for you to purchase from HLJ.

And HobbySearch cheats on the shipping. I order 10 items including 2 mags from AmiAmi and the shipping is 5700 yen. I just order the same 2 mags from HS and they wanted to charge me 5000 yen. Told them to fuck off and closed my account with them. They don't use the posted shipping rates, and instead charge 'a fixed amount per item, with handling charges'.
