BionicleEvolution Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Hey guys, I've just ordered the Transparent Comic Con 2014 Tahu mask, I live in England. Should be here in a weeks time! Just wondering if anyone else from Europe got one as well? Hoping to be one of the first people in Europe or atleast UK to obtain one! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dviddy Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 I bet a bunch of folks in Denmark near LEGO's headquarters have some... 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nidhiki of the Shadows Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Well, there's a lot of people in Europe so it'll be impossible to tell how many people own it already. xD But at least know that I am extremely jealous. -NotS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munty Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 I'm the guy who has two But, like you, mine won't be here for a few weeks so no way of knowing which of us will be 'first'! Of course it's highly likely that otgers in the UK are waiting on these as well and some may already be here if people flew out to NYCC and picked them up there! Will post up when mine arrive, not expecting them till very near end of the month though. We should make a club BioEvo lol We already actually have a uk fan club on facebook so you should visit some time 1 Quote Check out my Bionicle store on Bricklink here!> > > Bionic Bricks < < < Let me know if you can help me find these last few collectibles!Also looking for WILD KRAATA and a VMKK Yo!!!

Metecer Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Hey, how much did you pay for the mask? This goes to anybody who has bought a mask and lives in the UK, I need a reference price to see if I over payed for mine, 20 pounds more for shipping. So 40 pounds for the mask and shipping.

Munty Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 If your total price was £40 then you basically robbed the guy. When I was looking to buy mine they were ALL going for about £60+ and after I missed the one I WAS going to buy they were all up to about £70-90. The thing to remember with these is that you may or may not be required to pay customs on them. Some ebay listings actually include this cost in the purchase price in which case you're obviously already covered but if not (and depending on how the seller chooses to package and label it) you may be hit with an additional (if not fairly small) cost on receipt of your item. I saw a couple of these end up on bricklink in the last week with something like a £47 pricetag (I think) and they sold within hours so I'd advise anyone who can get hold of one for £40 inclusive to jump all over the thing. Every time one of these masks is sold it's going to a collector and likely won't be on the market again for years. That means every sale increases their potential value as that relies on how many are available as opposed to how many are in existence. Think GPKK, anyone with the money could buy a full set but as long as noone is selling any the price is basically determined by their current owners!

UnderscoreChronix Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I also ordered one, but it hasn't arrived yet. How much did you get yours for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JungleSlizer Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I'm going to get this next month, if they are still on ebay. I will possibly be the first person to own this in Finland, though I'm not so sure about that. There are some serious Bionicle collectors here.

BionicleEvolution Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 Loads of anticipation here haha all waiting to receive our masks. I payed £50 in total, £43 for the mask and £7 shipping. Should be here around Mon or Tue next week. Munty - Sure I'll pop by and visit you Facebook page! What's it called though? O_0 DeeVee - Good point there, I wonder where the masks were mass produced I would have loved to get my hands on the limited 100 VIP Transparent Hau mask, the only difference is the packaging though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munty Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I'm hoping the packaging is resealable (as it appears to be) and not glued and crimped and ised shut like many of these plastic cases are nowadays! Will pm you BEvo as I'm not sure we're supposed to mention it on these forums (wierd seeing as this is a bionicle community but hey...)

Actually, linking to sites like Facebook is totally fine these days so long as the page you link doesn't feature content which would be against BZPower's rules. The packaging will most likely be about as resealable as most Lego boxes; in other words, it should be plenty easy to seal it back on so long as you haven't completely broken it down.

Well that's good to know, I guess my minion did something foolish The packaging certainly looks promising, I really hope it's not glued. I guess I could find an unboxing video somewhere but I'm too lazy I guess...
