Hello there,

i want to inform you about some nice guys around the world that are re-casting my figures. they are:
frutillo_es (spanish ebayer)
dospatitos (spanish ebayer)
caomao1122 (Chinese ebayer on Ebay.co.uk)
e-miniatures (spanish e-store)
Dark Yakuza (spanish gaming club connected to e-miniatures)

there is no need to say that this is illegal but the worst is the quality and the alloy, they sell pieces of awful "lead" with very poor detail and big moulding lines. Sometimes the items miss the original resin base and naturally the packaging is different.

If someone knows about other re-casters i kindly ask to report it in this thread,

thanks in advance!

Rodolfo

Pandadosmares, thanks for trying to help. So there is no official EU dealer/shop? That's too bad. I had no problem with buying all over EU, but USA is scary. Does anyone has expirience with buying minis outside EU? Any problems with customs? How much the price is higher?

I bought mine directly from the Kabuki website. Shipping was a bit slow, but you're sure to get a real Kabuki figure. I will probably order again from the site.
