For me, it came to about $101 after shipping, and includes a Death Star shirt.

Can't wait to have that little statue on my desk. :D

    That is a certifiably excellent statue.

    I very nearly ordered this item. Until I realised for me the shipping is $75 dollars minimum!

    $164.94 is overkill! I shall wait and see if I can get it cheaper. Shame really :( I would have absolutely loved that

    Yeah, shipping overseas on a 10" tall statue is bound to be pretty ridiculous, I think it weighs something like 10-15 lbs too.

    Yeah, the international shipping on that thing would be a killer. I'm hoping Telltale can give us some cool Monkey Island products :)

    I wonder how long these'll be in stock and if Ron Gilbert got one for free.

    Well, I can personally verify that 0.1% of their stock has sold.

    I'm hoping TTG will sell this statue, and I can get it from them instead :) hopefully they'll give me a discount if I buy out all their Strong Bad figures too :P

    The new Guybrush looks awful in the Special Edition and now in statue form, I see... Beeehhh...

    We need the Telltale version of this statue...

    *gasp*

    Lovely statue. I'm tempted... but I shouldn't. I'm fresh out of university and have already spent a lot of money on Telltale merch recently. Plus shipping to the UK would be pretty darn expensive!

    I'd probably be interested in a smaller (hopefully cheaper) version, and I'll keep my eyes peeled for more Monkey Island merch. I've already bought the SMI button set from starwarsshop.com.

    Maybe the shipping works out cheaper if you get a couple.. maybe us UKers should pool together and get a couple in one go? :)

    It looks okay, I'm not too crazy about the SE artstyle they used in this but hey...ITS MONKEY MERCHANDISE!!

    I will have to wait a little untill it drops in price though, I cannot pay for the shipping on this thing.

    I would definitely buy it if the shipping wasn't so overpriced. Any chance of getting this in your store, Telltale (along with the Sam & Max one if that's still in stock)?

    I wonder how much would the shipping would cost for me. As much as the statue perhaps?

    Same as for me, I guess: 74,95 plus taxes etc.

    The statue looks great, but that's much too expensive for me.
    I rather order some more downloadable games...

    Special Edition artstyle? Blegh.
    And the ridiculous shipping prices it'd amount to.

    No thanks, not interested.

    Damn! That's a lot.

    And I'm still trying to digest the fact that it will cost me close to $60 to ship the Sam and Max bundle to my address...
