Hi Dakka!

This question has prob be answered numerous times but the search tool wasn't very friendly for me, unless I necroed a 2010 thread. But my question is ...

Has anyone from Australia ordered these kits on their own:

http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhammer-40000/Games_Workshop_Kits

Can I order these kits from Australia at these prices? I clicked on one and progressed through to the payment stage and it didn't stop me. Will it reject the order if I don't order some of the conversion parts with it? are these complete kits? because I can't see where it says otherwise if they are not? FW shipping seems above average but it will still be a huge discount for me if I order serveral items, (was looking at a LR and several Rhinos).

I just wanted to check if there was any catch before I ordered? Seemed to good to be true, I knew resin scuplts were cheaper to buy from FW than the basic plastic kits in our stores but I didn't know FW sold the standard vehicle kits as well. .

There's several stores on ebay that stock vehicles much cheaper:
Lazarus Games
Discount Games Store
aa-wargames
etc.

You can get land raiders for $25 inc* shipping if you don't mind used in perfect condition.

Yes those are the actual vehicles, they describe it on the page "This boxed set contains 1 multi-part plastic Space Marine Rhino"

IIRC FW charge more as well for Australians, I'd confirm it then use a freight forwarder if that's the case.

I've never seen FW charge different prices for different regions.

Honestly, your better off using eBay, 20.50£ is still approx 35$ Iv come across NOS rhinos for 20$ + shipping, and LR nos for 35... Check out abadd0n's shop, very good price for nos and nib...

Aswell as already mentioned, aa-war games etc etc. but there is much cheaper out there for us Aussies.
