Lukes toy store, have only had a wee bit of trouble and he fixed it staright away. and the shipping is really good considering what certain other retailers in america will charge to ship here. just takes a few weeks to get here sometimes. and brick and mortar Forbidden Planet when ever they have them in.

buttheadsmate Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 A bit early but there is definitely something on the horizon............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I get most of my stuff through Luke's Toy Store. His customer service is very good and he's a longtime friend from this forum. The downside is international shipping (which is still reasonable compared to some sites). I also know from experience that the poster above me is very good at getting the stuff you want. The downside is having to deal with him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andymini30 Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 yeah, I'm a big advocate of Lukes toy store, I used to order from BBTS but the shipping was strting to cost more than the mates. I'm looking forwards to Robs minimate emporium (or whatever your gonna call it), BTW Rob, are you able to source any of the borders, C2E2 or TRU iron man packs? I need my fix!!!!!!!!!!

I would love to help with the Borders,C2E2 & TRU packs but I rely as much as everybody else in the UK on the help we get from our US friends.....& Groundhog! For the record I buy a great deal from Luke & find his service superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magicmilner Posted March 27, 2010 Author Share Posted March 27, 2010 Sorry for the double post I've managad to hunt down most of the minimates I've missed that I wanted (i've been out of the loop for a good 6-7 months) but I'm finding it very difficult to find the Wolverine/Deadpool 2-pack (the comic version figures not the movie ones) I've heard now that there kind of rare but does anyone know where I can possibly get them? also have I missed much in the time I've been out?

Danny Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 AFX's shipping to the UK is, uh, rather high. Wave 28 as a whole sold like hot cakes, and the Deadpool set in particular was very popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pawcanada Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 AFX's shipping to the UK is, uh, rather high. I think I tried placing an order from there once and for whatever reason it wouldn't go trhough. Or maybe it was the shipping being too high... I can't remember. Anyway, add me to the list of people who use Luke's store. I pretty much second everything Danny said, it's a great place for Brits to shop.
