The base is really nice though, and the snow effects on it are very epic, you have to see it in person to understand what I mean. It is like they sprayed Soul Glo from the movie: 'Coming to America' over the snow

Yes because I missed them, the pedestal is a custom piece made by a glasscompany from The Netherlands

In 3hrs time it will be Wednesday 18th
That means my Catwoman will have been sitting in FedEx - INDIANAPOLIS, IN for 5 days?
Shipping amounted to $118.19
I wish Sideshow had used DHL like they normally do.

She might arrive sooner, walking
Latest update: Departed FedEx location
Hopefully heading to the nearest airport 
FedEx sent me an Import bill, which i paid.
FedEX sent me another Import bill, which is 7x higher than the original import bill?
Before i pay it, i've questioned it, as it amounts to way more than 20% which amounts to $200. The amount FedEx are requesting is $336.30 which is getting on for a 35% Import charge, nearly double what it should be?

Import duties are always a question mark with these things. Here in Australia my JL Bats was marked as a toy and received the standard import duty rate, but yesterday a piece was treated as if it was artwork and as such was duty free.
Though the customs bill was just as much in the end as the duty % is usually the smallest component for me.

UK Imports are charged at either 5% or 20%
Statues/Toys are always 20% (unless you get lucky).
FedEx's current request amounts to 35% which amounts to almost double (40%)
My guess is, they've upped the Import fee to include some sort of handling fee, as they label the Import fee as an Airway bill?
Shipping covers Pick up and delivery. Airway bill covers Import fee and another fee that amounts to $136.30 ?
