Depends on what shipping method you choose i believe. Avoiding EMS myself as it always end up costing me an arm in custom fees. With regular shipping method, you shouldn't pay much more than $20. I'll admit it's an estimation as, living in the EU, i'm charged in Euros. Expecting a €210/€215 invoice myself.

I never use EMS either. They warned me against that when I first ordered from them. $31 was the estimate for regular airmail, which equates to HK$ 240. That's what I'm usually charged by them. A few times it's been HK$ 220, and sometimes more if it's a heavier figure.

€210-215 is $241-246 (which would mean $27-32 shipping).

skipped a BR release (which is going to be a reality for major films within the next 2-3 years)

....nah.

The prices might go up though.

Yeah I just checked the novel and it says that as Baze said goodbye to Chirrut he couldn't help but wonder if sending their purple haired daughter off to military school was really the right call but before he could beat himself up over the decision the Death Trooper's grenade went off.

 

[TaliBane]

Nope! Baze and Chirrut are just close friends kinda like a band of brothers during a war. That's the vibe I got and I do believe that it was stated as such by the Lucasfilm team.

You are an autistic asexual though.

Um, not that there's anything wrong with that...

....nah.

I do love the discs but my buddy (who owns and buys more DVDs and BR's than any person on the planet) was recently lamenting that the end is nigh for disc at retail.

 

[Hoody999]

It's so obvious they are meant to be gay. Chirrut has a big stick. Baze has a vacuum sucker on his back. I mean, come on...

Hahaha

Yeah, that pretty much confirms it

I think that the open-face Imperial TIE-Fighter Pilot helmet that Han was wearing during his flight-training sequence is rubbish. He should've been wearing the full helmet. I know that the filmmakers wanted the audience to see Han's face during that deleted scene but still, come on!

But he's not even wearing a TIE pilot outfit anyway. He's wearing the exact same chest armor that Jyn wears in RO and the helmet almost seems to have been bashed from parts of a Death Trooper helmet. So a very RO ensemble. Does kind of call into question why TIE pilots need the full helmet if Han can do it all with his face exposed.

The RO deleted scenes are interesting though because they show Han actually fighting for the Empire, and at the helm of a version of the Empire's most iconic/fearsome fighter. My guess is they cut it mostly because they were worried about how that would go down - that Han didn't bumble into the Empire and hide during his first battle (a stormtrooper "virgin" like Finn) but actually shot and killed those who the Empire was invading... creatures that seem to have outfits similar to Empty Nest.

I still have a new (but stand removed) Specialist Death Trooper I am looking to move on (AU$300 + shipping/tracking from Australia) if anyone requires an extra one, given this announcement.

Feel free to PM me.

Who is this girl in the gif?

And your point is what exactly?

 

[TaliBane]

Diaz from Brooklyn 99.

And your point is what exactly?

Wait... are you actually autistic and asexual?

I guess i got my math wrong with USD/Euro exchange rate then

But still preferable to ordering from Sideshow.

 

[Tee-Kay]

Learned my lesson long ago. Unless you have points to burn, Sideshow gotta be your last resort when you live overseas

Yep same here. Also with Sideshow not only will you initially pay more but your garaunteed to get hit with import duty as well. I never get that with KG hobby.

I've been saving my points for Skiff Guard Lando. Generally best to use them on Sideshow figures as they're harder to find at cheaper prices.

So what’s the deal with the base? Will it say “Director Krennic” or “Orson Krennic”? I’d prefer “Director” as it’s his title and he is a ranking officer with the Imperial Military. If they put his full name it just won’t seem right.

They usually don't change those things, but you're right, it's Princess Leia and Grand Moff Tarkin on their plaques. Trooper Finn's stand should have said FN-2187 too.

Maybe with enough complaints, but while I think the plaques look nice I never read them and sometimes have the wrong one on there and don't even notice.

 

[Wor-Gar]

The plaque seems like a very easy thing to fix last minute.

The best plaque ever was: Uke Skywalker from the DX07

No way! Don’t own dx07 is that what it says on the base?

Need to inform them on FB or wherever possible.

Edit : I just saw your post on Instagram and liked it. I also sent a similar message to JC.Hong on his head sculpt for Krennic.
