Its cool, looks like they listened to me, I requested for the bushings on front and rear arms. Maybe a whole bunch of guys asked for it too. So how was your experience ordering these? Did your local dealer jack up the price ?
Anyone bought the Toyota Heritage Reproduction parts ?

Haven't bought any heritage parts yet.
Are 48725-14050/14010 the spherical bushings that press into the knuckle?

No, the ones pressed into rear knuckles are still available from toyota, the serrated ones are for the rear arms on inner side.
The ones for the rear knuckles are listed below. I bought about a year ago from Japan.

I went the Energy Suspension bushing route. They are stiffer, and transmit more road noise, until I got a set of Toyo Versado Noir tires; which helped greatly. I had to cut out 2 of the front and one of the rear cam adjusting bolts that were rusted to the bushings. The heritage program was pretty much a let down. I would liked to have seen 87-88 maroon driver-side door molding, a power steering oil reservoir to pump hose for the turbo model, engine splash pan, driver and passenger side rubber mirror support bracket with inside trim piece, drivers side foam seat cushion replacement pad.

Have you tried making a request ? The request form is on the page. One form allows up to 4 parts.
So I ordered some parts through my toyota dealer a few months ago and just got them today.
The parts prices were cheap, so I bought them.
They are:
48725-14010 x 2
48725-14020 x 2
The cost was roughly 21 USD a bushing. So I payed and waited 3 months. Then last month I was contacted by the dealer who said they made a mistake on the pricing of each bush.
The actual price is 250 USD a piece. And also, 48725-14020 (camber arm bush) is no longer available. So what they will do is let me have 48725-14010 at 42 USD a piece, Now I am not too happy about this but considering how hard it is to get these I just took them. Unfortunately, I dont think I will be using these bushings, as they are only 2 pcs, I might as well change all the inner rm bush to super pro poly's. I guess super pro polys will also have no springback like the OEM bushes, so the arms should pivot much easier.
So much for OEM bushings..
