Does anyone know how Queen Studios marks their products for customs?

For example, here in the Netherlands, we usually pay 21% custom fees/taxes on products. However, Prime 1 Studios marks their products as "original art" (I believe) and because of that, I only pay 6% on P1's pieces.

Anyone any idea?

Depends where you bought it from, was it direct from QS?

I almost wish this piece had battle damaged switch outs. What a first world problem it was having to make the choice.

Just hope the extra hundred odd I had to pony up for the battle damaged will be worth it.

I've chosen to quit collecting so this will be pretty much my only display piece (other than my trusty Captain America life size shield).

What do you guys think about something like this to display it in (only downside is I probably won't be able to get the wings to fit) as I'd want to keep it as compact as possible.

No, they don't have an official European outlet where you can order him yet unfortunately!

They actually do, based in france. https://www.derivstore.com/categorie...queen-studios/

But the Mark 50 is sold out though.

I bought my thanos through spec fiction and they'll send itunder the 9703 code wih a lower declared value as to cut cost on taxes. No idea what QS themselves put on the invoice.

Thanks, that's some great insight. So you had no issues with customs, everything went as planned under that code and the lower declared value?

Nice! Sorry, don't want to stray this far off topic but last question: how much of a lower value do you specify?
