Just a note, several Japanese exporters of figures and other merchandise were damaged severely by the earthquake this week. Both CDjapan and HobbyLinkJapan are temporarily suspending shipping to assess damage and personnel. Haven't checked other sites yet but I assume any business from Yokohama northward may be in difficulty for now.
As for the general reports of missing/dead... think back to all that video and realize that there was about 15 minutes warning... most of those buildings, many of those cars caught in the tsunami were occupied. I get pretty morose watching cars on a road desperately trying to avoid the wall of slurry heading towards them in some of the overhead aerial footage.
