More than 30 lately. Over here theres no "old figs->cheaper" policy.
Don't worry JC, i'm covered by now, but i know you are good at getting stuff, and reliable. Will let you know if anything. (right now i'm kinda broke tho lol) I should sig this lol I'm from Argentina. Shiping here its base 20 bucks, plus 5 per X weight (don't remember now) and/or shape. This means that carded figs are a no-no, same for boxed sets, or vehicles (for example, a friend finally found a nice Terrordrome, and a good price...but the size was too big, and there seems to be a limit, so he could brought it here). Then when it arrives, i have to pay the import tax, which is 50% of the cost (you have to declare how much is worth the stuff inside) So, for example, around 30 figs loose, might get high as 50 bucks on weight shipment (plus the 20 base). Plus cost of the figures themselves. When it arrives, let's say the stuff is 100 bucks, then i have to pay 50 as import tax. So i might get end up paying 200+ just from shipping alone. That's why i can't have tankers sending me stuff loose. i have to coordinate to get everthing to a single person...thus paying shipping inside the US. how is that shipped-Fedex, Ups or USPS? |

Oh, i don't want him neither as Duke.
But loose pants are difficult to find on figs. Bare arms are difficult too now, with the 25th line gone. The head can be modded easily. And the torso is cool and generic, not to mention the awesome gear. He's a bag of incredible fodder |

I think it's USPS? I'm not sure really, i have a friend helping me with that. The problem its the money change. Our local currency it's 4 of ours, for 1 usd... so 200 usd is REALLY expensive here. Luckily, i've been buying taking advantage of TRU and BBTS offers, but i still couldn't get any PoC stuff (i have some i bought here, at high prices) yet. i'm thinking on ordering cases at BBTS...

Personally i give a damn about him as figure. But every part of him it's useful for me. Hum...what about the RoC Ripcord? You could swap the arms for long sleeves...he's brown, but wouldn't look bad with green pants (actually...more akin to Duke's colors)

Haha, again, tastes are tastes man!
Personally, i find snow themed figs the least interestig :P I like forest/jungle/swamp more, and desert can be interesting. Preferably, non themed at all, that's what i like of old Joes. Maybe has to do to where we grow? .
