Forgot to say Steve, I was lucky enough to not be charged any customs!

the Cobra CLAW in the UK included the blue trooper, Ripcord, and Duke in addition to the glider? wow, that's awesome. I don't remember anything value packs like that ever being avaiable here in the states back then.

no, the claw was sold seperately first I think, but I suspect didn't sell too well due to it being a flimsy piece of crap, hence they released the "action pack" - with duke et al in there. A nice pack lewis - took me ages to get one.

Thanks Steve! I didnt get any customs on my figure as i asked him to declare a low value...which is a bit of a risk if it gets lost or damaged!

Heres another arrival, which i had to pay £15 customs on. Well, £7 VAT and £8 handling fee(whatever that is!).

Its the Flying SUbmarine, came from Australia.

Hope you like!
