Yup, looks like its the Standard for me and I'll add the hair myself! Take matters into my own hands then! ��
The shipping fees should be in the listing for the item. There's generally a table in/near the description. I'm not familiar with their import fees and taxation because I live in a state with no sales tax.

BBTS already factored a shipping into the price, plus you have to pay sales tax on top of that with shipping factored in. I think BBTS purchases are going to end up being more than some others.
Generally the case. I would only buy from them as a last resort. At this point the company is basically a professional scalping business.

Are they serious? 600 more for rooted hair on top of tax and shipping? Lol!! No thank you especially for a 1/4.Regular for me and happy with it. Just means I get to buy a second statue with the money I am saving. Congrats to those that got one. That sucker sold out quick.

I would imagine for the price difference, the artist is painting and adding the hair himself, hence the term 'artists edition'. Still incredibly expensive for sure, but I'd be willing to pay it personally as I don't buy many statues at all and I really love this character, but if I can't get one I'll settle for the regular.

Viper is doing the Artist editions sculpts, so it is just like paying for a custom sculpt to be done.
Will be interesting to see the final production on the sculpted compared to the Artist edition.

If that's the case seems like a deal... private commissions for these things are way more expensive.

In doing the sculpts, I just mean painted.
I do wonder how much better the sculpts will be painted compared to the regular edition.
I originally just thought the rooted hair was the only difference.

The thing is, I personally couldn't see any differences in paint app on the promo pics of the sculpted and the rooted. So if in the end product, the paint app of the rooted can look better than the promo pic, then it's worth the money, I guess. But if it's the other way around, the end product of the sculpted looks nothing like the promo pics (as in bad paint app), then it will be a disaster for those who ordered the sculpted hair one.

I couldn't see a difference either, so they really wouldn't want to have a drop in quality for the production piece because they'll have a lot of complaints otherwise.

Exactly. Their only option is to up the notch on the artist edition, because otherwise, those who ordered the reg version would feel like they are being cheated if the paintjob aint nowhere near as good as the prototype is (assuming the prototype of reg version is also painted by the master artist)

Has Queen said anything about a 1/4 bats or just the 1/3?
Queen Studios replied to someone who asked that very question on Facebook and said they were working on one in 1/4 scale.

Not sure if I'll be able to secure an artist's edition at this point, so I'm considering getting the JND instead, and maybe the standard version of this, unless someone can tell me where else I can get the artists edition. I'm in Australia so by the time I saw the big bad toy store post above it was gone.
