They were used to guide the final production run so got stripped in to component bits. I have them in a box somewhere!

If it was ordered today (during UK business hours) then it was dispatched today so you shouldn't have long to wait!
Cheers Doug - yup exciting times for me and the missus. I'm sorry to dissapoint about the Sontaran. Keep your eyes on ebay as they do crop up.
And sorry again but the Cyberman was our best seller and not a LE so more chance of seeing on ebay someplace.
Best

I just placed my order. The sale made it a less insane purchase than it would have been on my budget before. I'm still going to have to work some overtime to make it up, though. :lol
So these are going out immediately then. How long do they generally spend in transit to the US?
Lastly, thanks so much Neill for offering us this sonic replica, which as far as I care is 100% accurate, and thanks again for this sale.

I'm still thinking, how much do they come out total including tax and shipping to the US

Oh man!! Finally they become affordable and I lean towards getting one... on the exact same day that it becomes uncertain if I will have a job this time next week.
Damn health issues and bad timing!!
And also congrats on the little one, Neill!!

I may be wrong but I think you can go through the purchase process online, without actually completing it, and you'll be able to see what it works out shipping to your area.

Thanks for the congrats and really very sorry to hear about your troubles. Seriously, it's just a bit of metal and plastic.
Best wishes to you and hope things work out ok.

So Neill, what you're basically telling us is that there's now ZERO chance of seeing these beauties that so many fans want...
...going into production. To be perfectly honest, THAT SUCKS! :thumbsdown
I don't suppose there's any way to convince you folks to sell me that prototype Laser Screwdriver, is there? :love
P.S. Congrats on the little Gorton that's on the way!

Yup, it sucks but the reality is cost factors against demand. You say 'so many fans want' but can you actually put a number on that? Truth is it'll probably add up to just a couple of hundred at most. To do all the prototyping, tooling and CNC work for just a couple of hundred and all the advertising, etc. etc. would mean we'd make a product that was so expensive that no one would want to buy it. It was a killer bringing in the sonic at the price it is and ultimately, you have to remember, this is a business and businesses don't exist for long if they run at a loss.
I love that prop. I think it's gorgeous and I adore the prototypes. I just can't afford to lose money making them because, well, it'd be insane and my kid would grow up wondering why it's dad was such a mug frittering away its inheritence on making stuff that don't sell just because he, and a hendfull of other people, thought it looked cool. :confused

I could have save $165.00 if I had waited until today.... :confused
On July 15, I was SURE they would have been sold out by the end of the day.

Well sorry to hear this. Mostly because I'd had my eye on getting a Cyberman Helmet or Clockwork Robot mask down the line. So all of these are off the table even if ordered in March? Ebay and secondary market only from now on for those pieces? Bummer.

Wait... you mean they DON'T open doors and such? I thought it was a replica.
Oh right, 'Prop replica'.
And thank you.

Wellll.... they're pretty heavy. You could smash a window with one and open the door that way! :wacko

Wouldn't that invalidate the warranty? :angel
