This is most excellent news Nick. Bob offers a tremendous service but I am sure he loses out due to people being put off by the ludicrous £8 collection charge levied by the Mail for any duty that you get applied.

That's exactly it Phil.

splendid news!

Both, Bob and Nick offer great service.

I suppose that this agreement might have another side effect, too. Bob may concentrate a little more in designing and sculpting more nice figures!

That's great news. I have hold myself from ordering Bob mini due to shipping cost many time.
That's the first good news for 2015.
With the Artizan Thrilling Tales series and Pulp from Bob you will certainly have an impressive offer of Pulp miniature Nick.

We do, it's nice.

Mike is adding more to his Midnight Workshop next month as well, more VSF than Pulp but some of the new figures have a foot in both camps.

Excellent!  Postage and duty cost has stopped me ordering in the past. A great addition Nick.

That will be good news to many I am sure. Bob's figures are a real joy to paint! Good for all concerned in fact.

Great news - I've been wanting to stick in an order but, like others, getting stuffed by the Royal Mail duty collection charge before has put me off.

Fantastic News, I have only bought once from Bob, was very very impressed with his service, didn't have a problem with duty but postage cost is a bit of a killer.

Just for the record, the Prof's own Minaturicum has been stocking Pulp Figures in Europe for years:

Nice to have a UK stockist though.

Miniaturicum and North Star have been doing business for years, so I'm expecting Michael and I will continue with the Pulp Figures, and hopefully he'll like them coming in blister packs now.

There goes my excuse for not picking up those packs I don't have. Bought direct from Bob without any problems then suddenly started getting hit by customs (which I don't really mind) and handling fees (which I do mind - very much).

I haven't spoken to Bob about special offer figures like the Bread Fruit figures, so the honest answer is I don't know yet. We won't have the full range ready in January, we'll build it up over the months.

To be fair, not sure about the "breadfruit ladies" but the Movember figure Bob only asks for an extra $3 if you are not ordering owt else to cover postage and HMRC ain't going to sting you for such a small ammount.

When can we start ordering stuff? I'd like to get some thugee, what release wave will they be?
