buttheadsmate Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 I only noticed recently that the Walking Dead Minimate packs have the CE mark on them & the Runcorn (UK) address of Diamond Comics Distributors . I also noticed that Diamond Select Toys are based in Cockeysbille* MD21030 * Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 (edited) If it's being sold in Europe, it needs to be tested for there, but that depends on license restrictions and order quantities. It also gets the Runcorn address on it, since that's where Diamond Comics UK is located. It's not on the Thundercats or Marvel sets, of course, but Lost in Space, Invincible, Thief of Thieves, Star Trek and Jay and Silent Bob all have it. Is there a typo on one of the packages? I believe we say we're in Hunt Valley. Edited December 7, 2013 by DSTZach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted December 7, 2013 Author Share Posted December 7, 2013 Thanks for confirming that Zach esp. the bit about the other licences . I believe there may well be a typo .....shouldn't it be Cockeysville ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Wait, Thief of Thieves is sold internationally, but not Marvel?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Cockeysbille is definitely a typo. Where is it? HP, different contracts have different conditions for international sales. I assume Skybound's is less restrictive. I don't know what the order numbers were like, but that can play a factor as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno about a place but I'm sure either BHM or me know a bloke in our local pubs that could go by that name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
