thanks for the feedback koopa .. Is it possible to ask customs to have it declared as toys or request for no tax? what are the chances?
I called customs and they told me to ask sideshow the HR code for it when shipped. 20% of tax is very expensive as the spidey pf cost 470usd.
My first statue, they taxed me 30%. Lucky it was a 1/6 scale Bowen. Then I heard alot of people got taxed 20% for 1/4 XM Studios' statue from Singapore. They were charged from RM600-RM800. I managed to get the 6% gst for my last purchase of XM Thor, but I heard some people are not so lucky. It really depends who is at the counter at that time as they will determine what the item is.

wow for 30% tax.. so depends on the counter.. so it's better to have it shipped in SG then.. what did you tell the counter when you got the XM thor statue?

I told them its a toy and show a picture of it quickly from the assembly picture provided by XM. They probably didn't see the base. Just parts of Thor in pieces.

prime1's miller batman is the best so far of all their 1/3 IMO. but my ultra small collection so far mostly all 1/4 only. 1/3 is gonna b so out of place
