    Default Japan to NH in 4 Days

    I thought I would share the contents of an EMS box that arrived today with some observations... Box was sent to JFK from FUK ().

    The Nobori are bigger than I thought..just need to figure out how to safely de-wrinkle them (perhaps iron with a towel over them on low heat).

    Contents included Fuji and Yamasa Yamato Nobori, a Legend of the Galactic Heroes Nobori, several Yamato chair covers, a Yamato CR1 play book, several Yamato Pachislo play guides, a Battle counter, and no directions for it

    Pachislo: Gundam II, The Galaxy Railways, Evangelion 4

    EMS is fast.

    They can get stuff to me in 4 days flat, including a weekend in-between!

    Good stuff...
    There is always another machine around the corner...

    I don't know about those flags, but any I've got have done well in the washing machine, so I'd think on a low heat setting, they should iron out ok.

    Kiai comes through again (I assume) GREAT stuff

    Just hang them up, and the wrinkles and creases will fall out (eventually)

    PS - DHL Express shipped me a pachinko and NO WORD OF A LIE... it got here in 1 day from Japan ($$$$$$)

    Great items! EMS is very fast. I would recommend no heat or very low heat for the nobori, you do not want a shiny iron mark on them.
