For those in the US, these can be ordered from Just Be Toys: www.justbetoys.com

Note: there is some adult-oriented anime material on the Just Be site. You

Looks like the Star Wars minifigs are quite popular in Japan.  Now there is a

A good introduction page:

Offical page (Japanese):

You can now order them from www.hlj.com  Here's a few sample links:
EVA-01                  http://www.hlj.com/cgi-local/hljpage.cgi?MEDKUB-01
Blair Witch Project (!) http://www.hlj.com/cgi-local/hljpage.cgi?MEDKUB-12


They aren't cheap though, Yen 1980 = US$18.6 for 3 minifigs!  But they would • be
a good match for the new MovieMaker set...
