Sorry 'bout this, guys; as KR says, it is a problem with the very different
market structure between the US and UK. When we get a figure from the
sculptor, we bang it into a mould and hey, it's "available" (ie: we are
getting saleable castings) within a day! Even when KR gets the stuff from us
(and I have to admit we've been slow on this recently, which hasn't helped) he
has to go through the whole process with the distributors, who work months
ahead. But at least you get to buy the stuff off the shelf in your store, in
nice coloured blister packs......
