eBay isn't always the best option IMO. I've purchased multiple models throughout the years from this Hobby Link Japan, excellent service all around, as well as prices (£129). I fully recomend them so it's something you should really consider when the time comes to buying that marvelous Fine Molds MF, Ady:

yeh i had looked at that site and it comes to approx £200 with postage to the UK. I did find one that was going for a lot less that was in the Uk but i got outbid by £2 over my max bid right at the last second today, so i'm pretty gutted. I was so close to getting it too but i didn't have any extra cash to bid higher. i haven't seen any others in the Uk on the net that is any cheaper than getting one from abroad, but that's going to be a long way off because i need to save a lot more extra cash. i think what i'm going to have to do is just keep donations open until this edit is near completion, which is something i hoped that i wouldn't have to do again. And i though this was going to be the easy movie to do. lol
cutnshut, these edits are not intended for sale, but as you can see from Adywan's recent comments, any donations towards his ongoing cause will help to keep things moving forward on these masterpieces he's working on. He has a very ambitious workload of potential shots planned, which is great for everyone interested in these, but it's going to cost him a bit to realise them properly. Either PM him about it, or other details are in his signature.
I'm from the U.K. too, so PM me your contact details, and I'll organise a PAL DVD-9 for you.
Nice spot on those X-wing engine glows vaderios. One of the things I love about these edits are the consistently improved engine glows on various vehicles, so thanks for sorting that Adywan. I've a few more bits and pieces coming up when I find the time.
