If anyone is still interested.
Eureka Miniatures has the licence to manufacture in Australia and will take
Overseas orders. With the current exchange rate for Australian dollars it
may be much cheaper to buy form here. Also, as the orders would be from
overseas, you dont pay any GST (Goods & Services Tax) as they count as
exports.
I don't know what their mail service overseas is like, but within Australia
it is pretty good. They are based in Melbourne Vic and I live in
Townsville, North Queensland.
Their Web address is: http//.erukamin.com.au
Also, their website has most of their miniatures photographed on the site.
