Thanks man
Used a yellow light to give it a desert feel- uploaded the wrong one to flickr, like this one better- exposure is a bit nicer on it

Fudge!!!! Just got my post office ransom note for £22.26 after I also asked for the value to be marked down

Looks like we'll have to start factoring the extra costs in, this means I'll have to skip Frozn Frog as the funds I had will be releasing my fb now.

Sorry to hear that dude, looks like all of us got stung this time. The thing that really pisses me off is the parcelforce fee- i dont mind paying the £7 import duty- I DO mind paying the £14!!!! fee PF stick on top. I dunno how the hell they justify that.

Would be nice to hear something official from threezero on the subject. Fair enough if they will not markdown the price anymore, but as far as im aware they did say that if you email them they will change the amount. None of us in the UK have got a reply last couple of drops and have all been hit with customs charges.
Also ends up with the usually very speedy EMS shipping getting delayed by over a week while customs and Parcelforce mess round with the box.

Still at least we get an awesome toy at the end of it all

I love these types of Saturday's.....

Do they take him out his box at customs and stuff

They can if they want, I've had stuff opened before.
I think in the case of these though it's just the fact they've been stated over the allowed threshold, so they've probably been unmolested

Like smokebelch said though its the parcelforce fee that sucks balls....the fact that it's £14 for any express mail services and about £6.50 for other services also bothers me, I don't see why it should be any different.

I want to get a second one, so I could put a Pac 6 on it and use the FB Chipp gear for NKD Jack.

Yeah, that would look awesome!!!

Good luck on finding one, hope you get it at a reasonable price.

Mine arrived today! HAS to be my favourite squadt by FAR! Not sure how to open the helmet of the Boomer, but I'm not sure if I am going to anyway. Plus, the feet are like properly posed or however you say it!

THANKS FERG!

Picked mine up from the depot on Friday. - Gotta agree my fav. Squadt so far! The shading round the eyes really makes it stand out. - Lovin' it.

Totally agree - these fees really, really suck.. Like you say, don't mind too much paying the tax.. - thems the rules but this 'Clearance Fee' for £14 is shocking.

Sorry to quote the pic again, but this post ROCKS> I had the same Saturday with my AP Zombs. Chill man, you're my kinda guy...

Wow. Just opened Chipp (my first Chipp btw) and I'll say unequivocally that not only is he my favorite Squadt (beating the likes of OG Nozzl, Gassed, Midnight Jack, and the GIDs) he's already one of my favorite TOYS, period.

Fort Burnout is the motherf-ing power dunk.

FERGster, you rule brotha. Congrats on another unreal release coming home to roost. Collect and DestroY!!!!!
