Hey that's cheap. I'm surprised.
The shipping is a lot tough. Damn lead.

Buffy is on the shelves at my local Forbidden Planet (Edinburgh) for £9.99. She looks to be about the scale of a Star Wars figure... which makes customising based on these likenesses rather tempting. Pictures to follow.

My mistake, I forgot to quote the link from the eBay posting. That is what the seller is listing as a shipment cost to the states. |

That's OK, I have started shipping MARVEL and DC figurines to USA too having noticed that some eBay users are taking an unfair advantage and exploiting US collectors. My rates just cover basic costs as i'm more interested in seeing folk on my forum get a good deal and not get exploited

Anyone know who's the next to be released, and when? Angel maybe?

Oh thanks for that. Any idea when we will be expecting Angel at all? A month or two perhaps?

Well Sueworld, we either get all 3 next week and then wait a year or they release the 4 per year as mentioned earlier at teh rate of one every 3 months.
My money is on the latter LOL

Angel --- 11th June Spike --- 13th Aug Faith ( or possibly master ) --- 12th Nov. Also we have been asked by Al to run a poll over on my forum if members wanted just one big bad enemy -- who would it be ?? The poll will be up and running shortly www.superherofigurineforum.com |

The poll will be up and running shortly www.superherofigurineforum.comThanks for the info about the future releases.  As for the poll, can you make one open for public? Because not everybody might care enough to register to answer a poll. Not to mention not every potential consumer uses our forum to see your post. Perhaps we should create similar poll over various forums, and in a while send combined results to Alan? It would definitely reach better statistics. |

Sadly for some, going on my forum requires registration - we have had too much abuse of the system ver the years and that is the only way we can execute any form of control. As for running the poll over several forums and combining results - ;D that won't work either as there are some really sad people who will vote on ALL forums just to boost the standing of their chosen figure/character; because they use different log-in names there wuld be no way to verify genuine votes from numptyvotes . Sad but true. We have had people attempt to register more than 10 accounts just to try and sway the results of what we do. net result is 9 collectors who vote fairly don't get their character made just because one selfish person has registered 10 votes, under different accounts, for some obscure figure that only THEY want in the collection.  |

Valid point. How about a separate poll system like pollcode.com? The system will block repeating votes and this can be spread over several forum, making sure people don't need to do much other than just vote. |

I've just set up the poll now The forum is really easy to join and navigate and we've been trusted with several polls from Eaglemoss before so it's all safe and no cheating goes on. For those wanting to vote, the link is www.superherofigurineforum.com Just requires a email validation and your away! On the poll are Glory, Adam, Warren, Caleb and the Mayor so come have your say now  |

Well, I did register and vote but again, keep in mind not everybody who wants to vote will go through the registration process. You need to bring the poll to the voters and not the other way around.
So by this you do miss decent percent of consumers who aren't necessary visit this forum or want to bother with registration, and that's a pity IMHO.
