I just bought a Vortex Manipulator from Rubbertoe Replicas and there was no import tax added.Keep in mind, US customers don't get charged the VAT tax.
I wanted to be sure there were no surprises, so I just ran the new Sonic and it shows there is no import
tax to the U.S. on this either, What is listed is what you pay.
You can run the numbers here.

I'm sure it's just as accurate
A fan made can not be "just as accurate" as one made by the shows prop maker using the same molds and CNC'd parts as the screen used ones???
In the same shop would be the same lathe, the same tools, the same adhesives, the same resins, the same techniques used to mix colors, finish parts, etc....
There is a trade off for paying a little less on a prop that is also being made by the original artist, It might even be worth it for some people. :unsure
My bet is you are going to see this Sonic Prop (Rubbertoe) sell out and go up in value very quickly.
