 Ok guys. The wonderful people at Empire Toys here in Perth are allowing us to order in a whole bunch of the Smashing Pumpkins Action Figures in. They will give us a discount if we order in bulk. Now they are not out until November, but we have the chance to pre-order some in September. So, We will just need to know ho is interested. They may cost around $50, it could be more though. Empire Toys have said they will be able to post anywhere around Australia. So just post if you will be interested in ordering some in. So we can let them know.  |

i spoke with Bree, and she remembers the woman at Empire saying we could get for around $40 to $45 - she thinks. Most likely they could be the same - around about cost. But Sanity have stuffed people around before, so personally i would trust them.

Is it just me or does this look like some band that isn't the Smashing Pumpkins? there toys ... you can't expect them to look identical to the band members. To me they still look like Gish era band. Jimmy is probally the best version i think. Ohh that mullet! |

on an update of this, the store we are getting it through are trying to find out if their supplier is still getting them in.
We have also decided to make it work this way, we'll contact you all when they get some in, then you can organise it all with the store. Save us getting involved, since we have no time at the moment.
But we are stil waiting to hear back from them.
