It doesn't look like the 30% coupon is available on Zavvi.us. But thanks for the heads up.

You're right. Sorry for not checking on that first. The 30% discount is for the UK and Germany, maybe some other markets in Europe that I don't know of. I panicked and got my first Blue Leader X-Wing for 130€ and it shipped from Spain. Now Zavvi sell it for as low as 56 GPB. Maybe you can have it shipped to the U.S. when you order via Zavvi UK?
Maybe $110 USD is still a better deal than paying double the MRSP on ebay?

The Zavvi.us sight actually ships from the UK for $5.99USD. Which is pretty good. I haven't tried to go through the process on the Zavvi UK site. I expect shipping would be much more costly. Still $109 is a good price!

Hey, that might be worth a try. I don't know about the availability of this vehicle in the U.S., but if it didn't pop up anywhere except for ebay for ridiculous prices, this might be worth it to pull the trigger. I pulled the trigger 5 times so far and paid 4 different prices for it:

140€
127€
87€ and
65€

Patience almost always pays off...even for the AT-ST Raider, which I completely missed on Amazon Germany because as a Best Buy exclusive, I did not expect it to sell here in Germany...I can only hope for a re-issue now.

It was only available as an exclusive thorugh Target and I never saw it in the wild. I think two stores in a 60 mile radius listed it in as in stock, otherwise it had to be shipped. I want to say that it retailed for about $104.99. So $109 isn't much of a mark up compared to "after market." I did actually go ahead and order one, it is supposed to arrive sometime next week.

Starchaser let me know how this ships. I might have to do the same thing.

I am just sitting here thinking how crazy is something that was a US product can be bought in the UK and still shipped across the ocean for about as much as it retailed for here originally.

Freaking nuts I say!

It looks like SmythsToys are going to receive the Avatar Toys by McFarelane two weeks later. They're supposed to arrive at the end of November here in Germany. What a perfect release window with the new movie in theaters and just before the Holiday Season!
