Seriously sorry for the really late response  :(

The Miniatures has been cast and I've received them a couple months ago but it's just been sitting on my work table since then. I've just been too busy with work and family to do anything with them.

Anyhow, after realizing that many of you who have requested a set of minis are outside of the USA (where I reside), I looked into costs for international shipping. It turns out that it's ridiculously expensive to ship out an package internationally from here  :o

For instance, shipping to the UK via USPS Priority Mail International Small Flat Rate Box costs USD$33.95

The cost of shipping is more than for the set of figures :-[

White Knight suggested getting a grouped EU order going to split the costs. But I really don't have the bandwidth currently to arrange anything myself. So let me know if anyone is willing to put one together for everyone.

Otherwise, I can only ship to those in the USA. If you are in the USA and have requested for a set here and is still interested, please contact me by PM.

Thanks for your patience and understanding!

$33,95 to send 4 miniatures by envelope? If so, damn, that's utterly insane!

I have this every time I send presents back home to Canada. I've stopped using Carriers like UPS and now just put stuff in a padded envelope which is a lot cheaper.

It also depends on where you are sending stuff, and what you tell them you are sending. A friend of mine in Norway wanted to order a Fat Mat gaming mat but the import taxes were something like £40. He had it delivered to my address (both myself and the manufacturer are in the UK), and I sent it to him as a 'gift'. It cost me less than 1/3 of the import tax, as presents are not taxed but imported games are. Same item, same size, same weight, same delivery company, different description.
I know the voices aren't real .... but they have such FASCINATING ideas!

Anyway, is anyone up for that? I would be, but it wouldn't be interesting that I'm the one centralising the group order as local (Belgian) mail is expensive as well.

I think even if it is going to the EU it should be sent from the UK - you guys have the cheapest postage of all of EU by far.

As I said ... I'm happy to act as a 'go between'  Just need to work out everyone's address's and postage.

They are some really unique figures so I'm happy to pay a little 'over the odds' for them.

Let me know if anyone wants to do this.

There'd probably more interest in other sub boards as well (superhero crowd), though I appreciate Azzabat might try to keep this manageable.  :)

I think the best thing so as to avoid confusion is to let @Space Corsair know who wants what, and he can then decide if it's worth casting them up, for how much and then posting them off.

I'm happy to be a distribution point for the UK as it just means posting everything off in a small packet thru my local main post office.

Does that sound like a plan?

Are you able to be a distribution point in the EU dispite of the Brexit ?

Brexit won't take effect for another few years at least. It's just a referendum, but the Parliament still has to accept it and start the procedure.
