To reiterate, for Europeans the problem is Brexit. If you’re American or Australian, you’re just not in the loop. Shipping containers are irrelevant for metal minis cast in the UK and shipped to the EU.

If you’re American, imagine if Florida seceded, and now every time you want a glass of orange juice it costs $14 and takes three weeks to arrive. You’d switch over to coffee after a while, wouldn’t you?

What we need would be for a company like North Star to emerge within the EU. If it’s “North Star EU” or some Germans I don’t care, I just want someone to carry most of the model lines I like, including the weird small metal ones. I don’t have a problem getting Warlord or Perry plastic boxes, it’s the metal stuff, like Dixon or Great Escape Games for example.
