Last chance to get that hamster cannon you've always wanted, or any of those fantastic elves or orcs. Just Saying.

How is their shipping to Canada? The ninja (without the cannon) might be useful...

We did, in fact, place an order.

Shipping was $24 for unit packs of orcs and wolf riders. You can fill your cart and see the postage before you press the button to pay.

Was planning to get the order in today, getting just the few very finest figures I'd regret not buying some time from now. And then they charge $18 in shipping (to Europe) for $22 worth of figures, which turns out to be the lowest shipping rate as it's the same for even a single figure...

Ordered, but waiting for the package to arrive.

I am thinking if I should buy some more before that final date.

Probably the lowest tracked parcel rate, which would be set by the postal service not the company.

I assume as much, but most companies tend to offer some cheaper/slower/less secure options too.

I think some companies have been burned too many times with lost packages. In this case, they are only open for two more weeks (or so) so I don't think they'll be making any changes.

Orders in, wish I had the spare cash for more, but, tough, its Christmas, at least I finally did buy something from them.

Here's to hoping someone has the opportunity to pick up the range in the future.

I am undecided and rapidly running out of time.  I don't know what use I would necessarily make of them and already have other things planned.  The only things I really "need" are some wolf riders.  I can't find any better than Thunderbolt Mountain.  The postage is steep, especially sending to New Zealand.   I will ponder for a couple more days (Unless someone can point me to decent wolf riders).

Hope he will sell the range to a new owner, since at the moment I'm really low on funds... :'(

These Thunderbolt Mountain gems arrived last week. I just finished painting them up. I gave them to my girlfriend as an early Christmas present, as I have no specific use for them.
