Do you know what the release date for this is? Or whether or not you can buy the Batman buy itself?

I believe it is sold as a set. It's about 1/8 scale and sells for $116 or $98 pre-ordered. If you pre-order by 8/15/08. Not due for release till 11/30/09
 
30.00 won't fly. You might get away with 100.00 and you should be happy if you can get away with that. I ship a ton overseas and if I declare it too low for the buyer they get nailed.

the limited for the customs here is 71 dollars, under that value you pay no tax.
But putting on a box as huge as that of the Hot Toys Tumbler a value of 70 dollars, I don't know....
IF they open it and they see it, I think at first sight it might look like a toy and they could believe that value. But when the invoice is send with the toy in the box and they see that invoice and the true value...than we are busted.

so dunno what to do about this custom-issue...
 
I ordered three ED-209s BD from HLJ and had to pay no customs and that box was MASSIVE!!

It doesn't look a thing like the movie, but I LIKE IT! There's something so badass about the design, I don't know what it is.

Thanks for the pics, darren. Do you know what the release date for this is? Or whether or not you can buy the Batman buy itself?

No problem dude! I looked around online and it is estimated to be released in September. Expect to pay around $70 for it so you should be able to get it for under $100 shipped.

And this may be off topic but here are pics of the Bandai Movie Realization Batman + Batpod. It'll run you about $60-$70 for the set.

Is there size information on this. Depending on the size, I might get this to have a Pod in my collection but save some money and space. Sure the Batman looks a bit weird, but overall, seeing him on the bike looks real sharp and that's what I'd be after.
 
Hi Riko..I think I answered all of your questions in an email..you should be good 2 go

Thanks man. Can't wait. How does the Batman Mini Bust look?
I was impressed with it and so much so that I went back and order another 48 pieces...I think its a lot better than the DC Direct one and will be much harder to find thus making it more desirable on the secondary market..

in 10 years of shipping packages worldwide we have never had an issue with customs we normally state a value for something like this around $100 you will probably have to pay some taxes (I am not customs in your country so I do not know what that will be) but I would imagine it would be safer than putting a real low value and then having customs inspect the package...but like I said we never get emails or complaints from customers about taxes on international packages. With that being said I do not know if people are just paying the taxes because they know that some packages will be taxed or if sometimes the items go through and no taxes are charged. I can only speak for bringing stuff in from Japan and HK to the United States and know that the U.S. does not levy a duty on anything labeled Action Figure Human Likeness

Yeah, I'll be picking those up. The batpod looks stellar. Batman is clearly inaccurate, but I like it still. Thanks for the pics, FF.
