It is worth noting you get a regular alien and a Predator too.   That is a darned good price.

Mini Market is a good vender too.
I got the queen from them awhile ago at this price.
Also, most the eggs come off the terrain base.  ;)

Agreed, one of my favorite sites - they do a lot of "blow outs".  Their prices on normal lines (such as X-wing etc.) is really quite excellent.  They have the new Wave 3 stuff at discount etc.

It's been that price before.  I bought one from MM for that price maybe three or four years ago.  It is a heck of a good deal.  I have two, one with the egg sack and one re-based to stomp around with her brood.  At the same time I ordered one of the Horrorclix giant Cthulhu for $40 too.

It's just too bad the shipping rates across the ocean are so terrible. $48 shipping to get a board game across is painful.

Shipping abroad from the US is criminally expensive.  You have UPS and Fedex who will ship for companies/businesses but artificially increase their prices essentially to avoid normal customers.  USPS is going bankrupt and they let you know everytime you ship anything, anywhere.  It's stopped me from being able to sell a product abroad - it really sucks ass.

Couple that with the customs charges in a lot of European countries...say goodbye.  Just awful.

Yeah, things have really become shit in the last years. Remembered that halfway the zeroes I ordered $400 worth of Warmachine for me and my mates and paid $30 shipping and wasn't charged with customs fees. Those were the days...
