These have been amazing from the get go! The fleshy paint looked gross and now this more stylized version looks great too. Good versatile piece of vinyl.
The freezer pop kind of reminds me of the elusive frozen for freshness ck.....which still haunts my dreams.
These are looking soo great, good luck everyone! Any plans on an unpainted release for "blank" collectors? I´d love to own this as a mixed parts figure!
In FOEs defense, the smallest box, EMS is 40/43.00 dollars, at the cheapest. Add in packing costs, labor, overhead, etc. they aren't making bank off you, guarenteed. Not to mention FOE gives the artist they work with the highest percentage of the cut out of all the galleries so they really don't make all that much from sales to begin with. Even if they are making 2-3 bucks off of shipping somehow I think we can all survive. When I'm shipping overseas I set a fixed price and I ALWAYS end up paying the difference out of pocket as I feel bad charging so much for shipping. This isn't good business practices, because it makes other seller look like they overcharge. If you want to blame anyone blame the USPS or any other shipper, it's gotten so much worse over the last few years. The price hikes never end. Or you can move to the US and only get charged 10 bucks.... But you'll be living in the USA... With Obama as your president and Walmart as your neighborhood market ...
^True. But shipping a smaller, lighter figure the regular international airmail is about 15 $, no? Usually the risk involved is worth it, but I understand why corporate doesn't see it that way.
First class can be 15-20 bucks, but there is no insurance, and I don't think tracking either. Boxes take weeks, and if list it's your ass. If your spending good money, I think EMS is the way to go. I'm pretty sure ships either Priority or EMS, both are very close price wise. I don't think they ship first class. And up to I think 3 pounds its all the same price wise. So a digger costs the same as BEMON. It's stupid, I know.
always receive my first class parcels in 10 open days Rich, i understand why EMS is more pro but we still have the choice with all that involve in both type of shipping half of the final price for this type of figure is a steal, and at final make this game more elitist !
US international prices are just silly, even first class now. It costs 15+ just to send a toy first class to Europe. I always ship first class, and half of the people who collect my stuff live all over Europe and in China and Hong Kong and I've never had an issue. It is trackable, maybe not everywhere, but I've been able to track first class packages going to Asia and Europe with their custom numbers tons of times. Jim at FOE is a pretty reasonable guy, if you email him and tell him you want an Usir shipped first class and if anything happens in transit you accept responsibility I'm sure he would be ok with that.
Crap, I just saw this. Did you ask Mikee (Coma21)? If they haven't sold he can probably help you man. Sorry for the late response.
