Be sure not to bring this to American airports with the FAA empire likely seeing as a threat.

The chibi figures of Team Anglerfish are adorable.
The inflatable tank shells are awesome; sadly, American fans will never be able to import them thanks to the huge chance of the Federal Aviation Administration seeing them as a potential threat.

The shells are plastic and only look like tank shells when inflated so since it ships in a card board box and if even x-rayed it's no different from a beach ball.
Your problem is finding a site that sells them, hopefully period-dot direct is not the only place to order them from as a exclusive.
I wouldn't mind having one just got to figure out and see if they deal with over seas non Japanese customers.

Interested they'd sell two shells of the same size. Should sell a Panzer VIII Maus shell. That 128mm shell. Mmm.

This makes play fights on the beach more realistic.

eh... not really...
not to mention just by looking at it .. i'm sure most people will know that it's fake..
depends on the state you are in.. you can bring guns (rifles or handguns) to airports... as long you don't go through security checkpoints with them

AmiAmi and Hobby Search have them, and probably other places as well, so they're definately not exclusives.

It was a jab on the FAA becoming so sensitive/overly cautious (though I do agree that secure does need to be tightened to an extent but I think the FAA overdoes it).

Personally, I'd like to see the two-piece 122mm shell fired by the D-25T gun on the IS-2:
Alternately, the shell fired by the Ordnance QF 17-pounder, as used on the Sherman Firefly:
God bless Pravda and Saunders.
