Were one in the same in case any of you didnt know they made the nice 3.75" Harry Potter figures in the UK and it looked like a worldwide release for them with the next film however they are no more Popco is in receivership and look likely to be wound up.  Get the figures while you can because when they are gone they really will be gone. Popco was part of Corgi International (the UK offices) and Corgi Int. is not looking so good at the moment...  (not to be confused with Corgi Classics which is wholly owned by Hornby) Sad news.

Do you have any websites that have the figures for sale?

Aside from eBay not many however if you wanted some of them let me know and I can probably help you out. I have been shipping UK only Dr Who figures to an artist in the US for a while now Smiley

I don't personally have a lot of the Potter figures left but I am always in the shops and I can pick up some of the bargains as I see them. Some of the shops over hear are knocking figures out for £2.00-£2.50 range. I think Play.com had the Castle playset for £9.99 which is a massive drop from £49.99 but shipping to the US on that item would be a killer. I will see what I can find online.
