I really like them, and would definitely get them, but the price plus inevitable import tax to the UK makes them quite spendy for my blood. I wish the bases were an extra as I have no need for them and they must surely add cost.
To buy all the Krakatoans as I'd like, They work out somewhere around £4 a figure which isn't bad, but without bases and that cheaper cost I'd be sold. Then again I am quite poor so maybe my value system is weighted towards my personal finances
