Sure did mate keeping an eye on how it does on old evil-bay
I do have a few bits of spare armour & a body im wondering if it be easier to get the rest of the loose bits from darren as he still has a good few sandie bits & helmets, The only problem is trying to get a squad leader back pack as it differs from the corporal ones toy anxiety has one but its not worth just buying the back pack for $10 & paying $35 shipping & customs
oh & the T-21 blaster If i could find one of those somewhere might be worth trying to cast it as it looks as if its just one solid piece???
 
i'd like to have about 4 or 5 sandies but not all the same ones, it looks like its just the corporal with black pouldron that is always showing up on ebay or onine in the UK .
Wondering if it be worth waiting out for this new DX version ? But that could be dec- jan before there available. Pre- orders for these seem to be around £75 the corporal's are going for about £100- £140 used & new
Are your spare backpacks the SS ones? If you have a spare squad leader one I'd buy it off ya mate if its not needed :)
 
Top Job mate i'll let ya know when ive scored another sandie :) oh i'll be positng the snowtrooper, hoth bits & bobs tomorrow so it should arrive between weds-fri

I'm going for a Sandie squad too and like you cant find the SS Sandies at a decent price in the UK.

I'll be buying the new one and the Dewback when it comes out but I still want the Black and White one as I got the Orange one when it was first released from Forbidden Planet.

Just have to keep looking and searching for a cheap one online.

there always is loads of sandie sergeants & corporals on the US ebay for decent prices well under £100 converterd to pounds but when you add shipping & customs it soon bumps up to around £140-£150 then you have cheeky parcelforce adding £8 clearance fee on top of that

There is a SS sandie corporal on play.com for £89 free postage i was tempted but i have 2 corporals would like a sergeant & squad leader but it looks like i'll wait & see how much these DX sandies will be when shops over here get them in ?

Oh thanks for the heads up but they dont ship "Gadgets" to Ireland.

EDIT: (Turns out I cant buy him any way and the only one they have is a factory re-furb and he is damaged.)

And because they ship from Jersey, I get hit with Customs and VAT.

Thats a very good price for him though.

I think I paid £89 plus shipping from Forbidden Planet for my Squad Leader.

I might know somewhere online doing the the DX Sandie at a good price I am just waiting on him to come back to me with the cost of the DX Sandie and the Dewback so I will let you know.

He still doesnt know if he will be stocking them as Sideshow are very slow to get back to him.

Nice one mate :) yeah i havent seen the DX ones any cheaper than £99 over here & not may places seem to be offering it for a pre-order

Its a nightmare trying to find anywhere over here selling any sideshow stuff, i have came across tiny shops by chance searching on google but majority of the time the stuff they list has been long sold out which dont help

Tell me about it!

I got lucky a few times on Amazon.com and found a place called Little Monkey Costumes.

I got Tatooine Farmer Luke and Bespin Luke for less than £90 delivered from the US to Ireland no customs or VAT or anything. I guess you get lucky sometimes but these Sandies are the bane of my life for the last 3 months or so.

I will keep you up to date when I get a price for the DX figure.

Your stuff, the forgeworld etching order and magnets should be landing this week/early next week to commence on my BLACK TEMPLAR Marine :D
 
Well not to much progress tonight and I am not to sure if I like it... But after a long day casting stuff I think I may be a wee bit blind to it...

I think it needs to be bigger.....

Well I have just had my hard earned cheese and biscuits and a few pickled onions... a cup of milky coffee (with a wee dram in for medicinal purposes you understand)...
