store.yahoo.com/yhst-14329185242624/busuprfofist.htmlOkay, this isn't the exclusive version that will come with the book but what a huge savings!! The shipping deal is for US members of the BCC and there was some info there about members from other countries if those of you want to check that part out. Sideshow's price with the shipping would be about $261.50 (according to their shipping chart something weighing 13 pounds ships for $11.40) so that's a $46 difference. Now I have to seriously think about this (and talk to my husband and kids and see if this could be a possible mother's day/birthday gift combo). That $250 price plus shipping was too much for me but this is a lot more reasonable! Edited to add the shipping details:

Hmm... Even international has a nice 15$ off, which is nice. For me it says the shipping will be 15.98, so I am guessing alot of people will either get it free, or end up paying a few bucks for shipping.
Go Time and Space!

I just cancelled mine with Sideshow too. Even though I am in the UK I have just saved myself about $100 by ordering from Time & Space. Outstanding

UK people - Remember that if you buy from the BCC you might get customs taxed on this item and it could be around £20-£30. If you get it from SC they'll send it from the European warehouse which means no customs charges.

Even with the possibility of customs charges, they don't charge every time?, it's still going to save me at least $50. I am not that bothered about paying all that extra for the exclusive.

Glad to see people are taking advantage of this. For me, I decided to pass on this. I realized I was getting caught up in the excitement and even though I love the figure I don't really want to get started collecting the PF figures. I've already spent so much money on just the 12" figures and I want to keep collecting those. I know me and if I get this one figure I'll want to get them all if they make more - just can't start another addiction!!

I'm keeping my order with Sideshow, too. I think it's cool to get it through the BCC though. If you want to show support for the figure (and possible line), pre-order it somewhere.

Someone messed up at Time and Space toys and has this listed for $134.99. I am very tempted to place and order but I wonder if they will stick to this price miss print. Has anyone else noticed this?

If you get it from SC they'll send it from the European warehouse which means no customs charges. Sorry to say but that is incorrect. I always order through Sideshow EU and on every order you still pay VAT, all you miss out on is the clearance charge that the Royal Mail or ParcelForce charge for (which is a minimum of £8). |

Yes, but VAT is explained upfront whereas Customs is a gamble. And let me tell you it can be WAY more than £8. |

I seriously doubt they would give it to you at that price. That's probably what the figure costs them. Someone made an honest mistake, and now you want to take advantage of it? Weak. |

Yes I know.
I actually meant that the clearance fee is a minimum £8, so its better to go with SS and pay the VAT as a most all you'll save is £8. And then you have the Custom's Import Duty and VAT to pay on top.
I apologise for my poor expression.

I think you miss understood me. I didnt order it form them but am curious to if anyone orders it form them while they still have the mistake up if they will give it to them for that price. I infact sent and email to them telling them that there price is wrong and that they should change it before they get several orders for it. I like time and space toys a lot they have always been very good to me. |

If I misunderstood you, it was only because you wrote something you did not intend to. You said, "I am very tempted to place an order, but I wonder if they will stick to this price misprint."

I noticed it and ordered it at $134.99. They sent me an email cancelling my order and saying if I still want it at the proper price, $250, I should reorder. So I have gone back to Sideshow and ordered the exclusive. |

Im not ordering it, Its way too expensive, Im sticking to the figs and sideshows and actual props, dont need to add anymore "lines" to my collection habit ESPECIALLY at that price. Its cool to look at though :-)
-Val
Scullow and Tommy, Im with you I wouldve tried to order it too at the lower price, I dont think Its "WEAK", and anyone who thinks that it is is way to "british thinking" like their Avatar :-)
