I'm about to crunch some numbers and if everything looks good, I may just cancel my pre-orders at other sites and just do everything through Anime Island. The free shipping discount along with their excellent prices is hard to beat!

Dunno bout other places, but bbts wil ship everything together it if you preorder it all at once. They also Have something called pile of loot. From there site. With the Pile of Loot feature turned 'on', all items will be held in a virtual storage bin until you tell us to ship. Pile of Loot items can be shipped immediately, or be held up to 6 months, the time frame is up to you. This system will work particularily well with preorder customers, international customers, and frequent customers. The flexibility of adding in-stock items to your preorder shipments allows you to improve your collection without much added shipping expense. Just wanted to add that other sites such as Anime Island allow you to combine orders to save on shipping. It's not as streamlined as PoL but the prices are almost always cheaper than BBTS. Even WITH shipping, other sites are cheaper than BBTS, just saiyan. Hobby Link Japan and Buyee DO have a private warehouse for combined shipping which is literally the same thing as BBTS's system. Really not a fan of BBTS, it's overated imo and there's much better sites out there that sell figures for cheaper and provide just as good, if not better customer service. BBTS does have it's SOME advantages but I'd say the cons outweigh the pros. Hate seeing when people order from BBTS when they could've gotten better prices from elsewhere. I've been screwed too many times by them and I like promoting the other great sites out there. The more money you can save for this line, the better!

I'm sure you'll be locked in @ the discounted price but email them to make sure! If anything, you might want to pay up front if you'll quality for the free shipping

For anybody who have done business with anime-island before, have you ever emailed them? and if so how long did it take you to get an answer?
I pre ordered the re-release of SS goku along with the PAK wild west batman (paid full) and sent them email about 4-5 days ago concerning if the dates on these items have been pushed back. I'm not to worried because many people have stated buying from them before, but it would be nice to be updated on any delays. Places like MHtoyshop and toyzindabox has always got back with me in 24 hours.

Sucks a bit, but all in all, they are the cheapest option for most things, and that does have some costs.

Time before that, it took about a week.

As far as I know there are no Barnes and Nobles in Canada. Amazon.ca used to put up preorders for the Figuarts but after Vegito they stopped for some reason. Random collectibles/comic stores like Silver Snail get them but you'll have to search around.
