Okay, now I'm going to help you.
First, let's keep using that Dead Master figma you found as an example, alright?
Here she is, don't worry. You'll hopefully have her by the end of this!
Right, you've tried Amazon and Ebay, and, naturally, you're weary of buying passably fake Figmas, which could leave you out of quite a bit of saved-up money, and feeling upset.
Don't panic; you DO NOT need to buy from the Japanese websites. In my experience, I have very easy to use websites that all stock figmas, ALL IN ENGLISH! :D
Dude, English sites are a good thing! Don't be worried about buying from them just because they are not Japanese sites; these sites are all very trust-worthy.
First website; JBOX, or Jlist, if you want to be on the more 'adult' version of the site. (Jlist is the same as JBOX, save for the fact that they show you Adult items for sale).
Here it is --> http://www.jbox.com/home
To find your figmas, simply go to the 'Anime & Toys' section of the site.
Hey! Sure enough, JBOX currently stock the Dead Master figma you've been wanting! RESULT! In fact, she's on pre-order, meaning that she hasn't been released yet, and you can pay in advance for her!
Next, is HobbyLink Japan. http://www.hlj.com/top/Fig?page=2 This one is a litte harder to navigate, but lets again use your Dead Master figma as an example. Type 'Dead Master' into the search box right at the top of the home page, and you should get this page here -
Oh, and there is Dead Master again! Second from the top is your desired figma!
Clicking on her, you may feel a little worried to see that she is being sold for Yen, the Japanese currency. But don't worry. Once you've clicked on her, you'll be on this page, correct? Well, move your curser over the price, and you'll see the exchange rate in Pounds, Euros, and US dollars. See? She's not that expensive here, is she?
I'll advise you on another post about which my most prefered out of all of these is for prices and such.
Next, is Tokyo Toys, which is easier for UK residents like myself, but doesn't stock as many figmas you would like, in fact, they do not even stock the Dead Master figma at the current time, but they do offer a range of other figmas, and anime and game-related items! http://tokyotoys.com/ It's very easy to navigate, so you should have no trouble with it. Simply search 'figma' into their search bar at the side, and you will see all the figmas they currently have on sale.
If you have any questions - need help with any sites, buying or finding a particular figma that you have been looking for, please leave a comment in the box below and I will get back to you as soon as I can! ^w^
