Statue Wolf Predator Legendary Scale Bust

[Python]

I'm curious, for those of you in the EU, how much is shipping plus import tax on top of the piece's price?

I was quoted 182usd via USPS by Chronicle for the 1:5 trex bust... Should come around 300-350 with import fees. Thats half the price of the bust :S

Well the average PF is around $90 to the UK now, plus 20% tax, so $108. We have no idea what this will be as they don't tell you until right before it ships. I had to cancel my Coolprops 1:1 P2 bust as the shipping quote was shocking.

It's a sad state of affairs that it's still so expensive to have a package transported from one continent to another. I envy the shipping quotes I hear from US collectors

The "US collectors" shipping quote for THIS is ZERO

- well - like the Murphy's - we're not bitter - genuinely pleased that it at least gives YOU folks a bit of a break.

And to be fair - Sideshow say they ARE discounting the International rates - but I'll admit that I'm not sure I believe . . .

They certainly used too.. They've at least doubled now.

Trust me, I feel for you guys. I've bought XM statues and every time I do I dread the shipping. I'd have a much smaller collection if I had to pay those shipping fees for everything.

Is it still free shipping in the u.s

Don't think so. Be quick though as it will sell out any second...

 

[shanks]

especially as it's one per customer

Pricing insanity aside, I'm still stoked for this.

You're not on your own Kev - I'm looking forward to this piece too . . . it has that "certain something".

Amilcar did a GREAT job with this - design AND sculpt.

I think we all love this thing... "Pricing insanity aside" But that price is still fricking insane though, I think this guy simultaneously killed off this line, while being the best one made, kind of sad.

Yeah - there would be some irony there

. . . still - there's opportunity for Sideshow QC to screw this up on delivery

Oh I hope not, I've had mixed quality on these LSB's, the Aliens were beyond dire!! But the Predators have been mostly acceptable. My masked P1 has a few issues that will be sorted when I eventually give it some TLC. For the money they're asking for this, it HAS to be top quality.

 

[Heavy Metal Spike]

Me too

The masked P1 was the best of the bunch even with its crater mark and badly positioned plasma canon.

Unmasked P1 - goofy teeth, both P2's had awful skull patterning, but this has REAL promise.

No flourescent pink inner mouth please Sideshow

As much as I love this piece, I don't know if I would have ordered so early if I hadn't had reward points to throw at it. Seeing that price tag was one of the few legitimate shocks I've had in this hobby. Price increases every six months seems to have become the norm, but nearly doubling the price of the last LSB was completely unexpected.

Agree 100%

I'm HOPING that most of that increase was to improve quality of what is delivered - if it's back to "old days" Sideshow quality, then I'll be OK with the price hike.

i have ordered and also looking forward to it so i'm hoping double the price of previous LSB preds it is same standard as prototype, here's hoping

I really wish this was true.
