So I am planning to get this Rengoku figure when I travel to Japan, but however I am concerned on which way I am going to bring it back home would be better, the box for this figure is damn huge and that’s what’s tripping me up. Is it better to buy it in Japan and have it shipped via a post office service? Or buy my own big box when I get there and just check it in and add it to the things I’m carrying back home (with my luggages). or would you say it’s better to just buy it online and pay for the what I assume is going to be very expensive shipping? Any help is appreciated 🙂

If you can live with the risk of slight box damage, wrap the box using towels and clothes as padding and stow it in your check-in luggage.
the store might ship it, ask.
Are you alone on your trip, if not, stow as much stuff in 1 suitcase and put your figure in the other with as much protection as possible. If you’re alone you can carry it as hand luggage and put your normale hand luggage in your suitcase. That way it is never going to get damaged
