These highly detailed prop replicas are intended for adult collectors only and are not suitable for persons under 18 years of age.

I'm sure they can't send it assembled but I think if its sent disassembled or the parts divided and shipped in 2 separate boxes I honestly can't see how it would be a problem....just shipping that way might be an extra financial pain. You might seek a local distributor of Factory Entertainment's products there and ask how they are getting them..if any.

Does anyone know if there will me a problem getting this to the UK with the gun replica laws we have hear?
 
There wont be any trouble getting one in to the UK :) even in one piece, I have had 3 S.D studios Golden Guns shipped to me in the past with out any problems, and the fact its gold in colour wont affect the replica firearm law.
 
Dodgy,

How long ago did you have those SD Studios Golden Guns shipped? Before 911?...or after all the paranoia started? I'd still have these shipped on the side of caution if I was Factory Entertainment. All it takes is some over-anal customs dweeb to start things and then it might take months to get your property from them.

Two of them last year mate, our laws are strict but I have not had any problems, I do see your point about customs :lol
 
Alright. Since I'm the undisputed Goldeneye 64 "Golden Gun" champion of the universe, I demand that everyone here not order the signature edition of the replica until my order goes through.

Too much to ask for? Am I being too selfish? Maybe. :) But I'm the undisputed champion from one of the greatest multiplayer games of all time so I deserve dibs. While I'm certain that the agony of you having to wait for my confirmation will be horrible, it will be for a good cause.

:angel
 
I forgot all about this starting at 4:00pm UK time but just remembered (5:20pm) but was able to snag a SE

Financially, I REALLY shouldn't have. But its been something I've loved since being a kid and seeing TMWTGG for the first time.

Cheers

PS I was actually watching the football - well done you Yanks for getting a draw against Slovinia after being 2 goals down.
 
Got my signature edition order in (had to get my sis to order because I was at work). Order number 81 (probably would have had a lower order number, but she forgot what she was ordering for me. :lol)
