I tried that but I could only find one completed listing in the UK. Finished circa £37 for the 4 TakTom imports.

Does £50 for them sound reasonable?

Putting aside the its for charity part of the deal looking at ebay.com and adding postage I think £30-40 is about the right amount.
Arrghh, I have been outbid on thumbless Apelinq.

That's where I got £50 from. £35 for the auction I could find, plus postage, so circa £40 plus 25% as it's for charity.

And the moral we learnt from this is that Brimstone is apparently one of the more desirable Botcon figures?!?!??! !!!!!

In the end after all the things I bid on, I end up with the thing I have no interest in. The Kreon Devastator.
I hope Nick was satisfied with the total.

I nearly went against you on the Mirage! Alas, Christmas left me unable to do anything other than spectate. Regardless, that's a good haul for Mary's Meals!

Might have bid were I not indisposed. As it is all that remains at the time of posting this is a figure I donated. Amusing note, I also watched the Mirage with the thought of one last chrimbo gift for Ben, so it could have been the three of us fighting over it with like a 70% chance of Ben getting it anyway.

Hehe, didnt win anything, but I had fun bidding with amounts ending in random pence to make odd final figures.

Yeah. Managed to forget to set one of the items to 5 days instead of 7. It's still going.
Bazza- that's very generous. Thank you! PM me your address and I'll get your data disc dudes in the post on Tuesday. PM me with your address please!
Mr Brown- let me know soon if you want the FOC Bruticus. I'll have to pack up for my return to Glasgow for Christmas and New Year on Monday.

So that will be what you are paying and what I have paid going to a great cause.

I'm already buying the FOC Autobot Data Disks from him so he is sending a parcel to me anyway.

I was going to give it away to someone who wanted him anyway, so this way you get something you want and charity gets a bit more.
So if you see this in time Nick, please send Devastator to Bazza instead.

I've got the majority of the Kreo sets and Microchangers and was starting to look at the Microcombiners so you've started my collection of those. He'll go nicely in my Devastator display. He might be dwarfed a bit by the Hard Hero bust and Unite Warriors version but he'll fit in well.

The eBay auctions ran to almost exactly bang on £500, so add in the £50 for the data disks and £100 for the Bruticus giftset... plus the £3825 we sent Mary's Meals earlier in the year... that makes £4475 this year.
Easy as that, eh?
