Most of everything has to be in consideration. Have to be picky and critical... can't afford everything. Even hulk pf is under consideration. QUOTE(buggygil @ Aug 3 2012, 11:17 AM) Bro, considering Colossus PF? Seriously? I was considering to get two for myself......It's awesome!

Go to custom, aske to speak person in charge, and politely ask to "settle". Bulan puasa, they should more than happy to oblige  QUOTE(buggygil @ Aug 8 2012, 02:23 PM) Fedex called me up and said custom is going to tax me 20% + 10% for my Jessica Rabbit statue....WTF?!!!! 20 + 10?

20% + 10% is slightly higher than 30%. Imagine you take 30% from RM1,000.00 is RM300.00. But 20% + 10% is 1st you add 20% to your RM1,000.00 which totalled up to RM1,200.00 then and then only you add the other 10% which is RM120.00. So your taxable total is RM320.00
Unfortunately the issue here is that all Sideshow statues are made from Polystone and not porcelain as described in Sideshow web;
"Polystone is a compound made up largely of polyurethane resin mixed with powdered stone additives that give it added weight and the porcelain or "stone-like" feel that resulted in the materials name itself. Polystone is durable and highly effective at maintaining a sharp paint finish. Unlike porcelain which is fired in an oven, Polystone is a cold-cast material in which no heat is used in the manufacturing process, resulting in much greater variations of paint finish".
