new 40th anniversary figures from hasbro

[ScruffyLookingNH]

Well, I've gone for a case from a dealer in the US. Will end up costing about £27 a figure shipped. Gone with him as he's "sympathetic" when it comes to declared values....

I feel like it's 1995 all over again :/ Can't help but love these figures but in my heart know they're overpriced tat that will be worth a quarter of what I pay within months. And so many more to go.

If anyone knows where I can get a Luke X-Wing and an R5-D4 for less than the stupid £50+ on eBay please do give me a shout.

Yeah, £25.99 I paid from Forbidden Planet.
This is the only one I wanted at that price point.

That's not bad for FP as a mark up. These should be £20 all day but they and TRU seem to have the market seen up.

R5 will be available in the uK soon. You can forget about LXP. Limited exclusive run and will not be reproduced

At least the Droid will be available. Looks like I'll have to spend a ridiculous £80 to get one shipped from the US. I take it these were around $25 at the show?

Hey,
I have brought many things from US via gsp & yes the price you receive at end of auction includes all charges or risk of charges to the UK.The price is a little higher but worth it imo.And yes i to have already looked at LXP from US.. Crazy money but that's exclusives these days as you probably know!

Excellent, thanks mate and welcome

That's not so bad then. If you consider the cost of the shipping the Pitney Bowes repacking then £17 for the GSP seems pretty reasonable.
