Dark Crystal Dolls - Available in the UK

[BlueFrackle]

Hey Guys,
Today i called 'Forbidden Planet' and asked about the Dark Crystal Jen and Kira dolls.

They said that they had about 10 Sets in and they were £39.99 each.

Does anyone know if this is a good price?

Im thinking of going up there tomorrow or Saturday and buying them!

See ya

The retail price in US dollars was $40. It appears that they are charging more but they may have had higher freight charges.

I was just at Newbury Comics (Providence RI, US) and found both the Jen and Kira dolls on the shelf. Unfortunately I didn't check the price tags...

Has anybody bought them yet? I'm not sure I like the head molds. Thanks!

The Newbery Comics near Cambridge, MA has them for $40 each. The heads look better once out of the box. I think it may be that angle at which they have forced them in the box. But I had the same thought about my set and then too them out and I was much happier. I have an extra set of them for $65 for the set

As you might expect, I reviewed them awhile back:

Thanks for the tip! I appreciate it.

I'm trying to restrict the amount of money I spend on collectibles (sigh) so I'll think about whether I want to get a set for myself.

That, of course, does not stop me from drooling.
