I'm looking for the ABC robot from the Dredd movie (1/9 vinyl), but the only ones avaliable are in Asia, with a bit overpriced shipping. (A Boba Fett might be nice, too.)
Do you have any idea, who distributes the thing in the US? Maybe someone has it for trade?

Hm. So I can't get an original from anywhere?
(By the way, these recasts... I usually don't like the idea of recasting -after all, it IS stealing. But if you can't get something, because the production has been stopped, it is the only option left, right? Should I buy a recast?)

Kaiyodo made the kit (Boba Fett) also several years ago, and can still be found on some website stores and specialty shops sites. It is vinyl and I believe the scale was 1/6. At least the one I have is I think.
It runs about $60 USD's.

How do you tell which ones are original? (The Asian ones were on Ebay.)
