Yeah, I think I'm going to look into your way for the future for sure. I don't have a passport so I can't cross the border and fortunately for me, the item I'm getting was shipped UPS so it was easily tracked so I know for sure when it's at the ferry. I just thought I'd try this one time to see how it goes. I picked a bad time for it though as the ferry has been shut down all week. Boooo! Really? Never heard about that. How far away are you from Sombra? Get a passport (or at least wait til the 10 year passports come out - worthwhile getting). Yeah, it has something to do with low water levels in the river or something. They had to do some reconstruction. Suppose to resume service on Friday though. I actually just picked up the forms at the PO this morning so I'm going to try and get one for sure. Didn't know about the 10 year ones, that's news to me. I'm about 30-45 minutes from the ferry I'd say. Been a long time since I've been there so I don't really recall.

Blair how'd you get milk and eggs across the border? I thought you can't bring dairy...

Spotted the BOPPV Basic Teddy wave at my local TRU today. Decided to pass on the entire set because I don't need any of the figures in it. Especially seeing as they're $19.99 each, I'd rather put that money toward an Elite figure that I need instead.

I didn't realize there were problems bringing dairy across the border? whenever I've gone to the US we've never had problems...

Maybe it's the opposite way and you can't bring it in.

It's a shame that the figures themselves are so unattractive, cause the Teddy BAF is pretty sweet actually.

Even when they were on sale for $15.97 recently I felt like it was a steep price to pay.

Maybe it's the opposite way and you can't bring it in. You can't bring meats, fruits, veggies, flowers, etc into the USA, but there are restrictions coming back. I normally bring 1-2 dozen eggs (if on sale), 1-2 gallons of milk (and orange juice) here is a list I've found: All limits* are per person: ◾Animal fat / suet: up to 20 kg ◾Baked goods, candies, etc. not containing meat: up to 20 kg ◾Dairy (cheese / milk / butter): up to 20 kg, not exceeding $20 total ◾Spices, tea, coffee, condiments: No restrictions for personal use ◾Dried fruits / vegetables: up to 15 packages, not exceeding 250 kg ◾Frozen or canned fruits / vegetables: ◾Fruits: up to 15 frozen packages or 15 cans, not exceeding 250 kg ◾Vegetables: up to 20 kg of frozen or chilled vegetables ◾Fresh fruits / vegetables: This is where people seem to run into the most trouble. There are some fruits and vegetables that you can technically bring across , but there are many restrictions. I personally don’t think it’s worth the hassle, but if you insist, make sure to do your homework (below). ◾Fish / seafood: up to 20 kg (all species except pufferfish and Chinese mitten crab) ◾Processed meat and poultry products (jerky, sausages, deli meats, etc.): up to 20 kg ◾contents must be labeled ◾proof of country of origin may be required ◾Unprocessed meat and poultry (fresh, frozen and chilled): up to 20 kg total, including: ◾One turkey or 10 kg of turkey products ◾10 kg chicken ◾20 kg of meat or meat products from cattle, sheep, goats, bison, and buffalo ◾must be labeled, and may need proof of country of origin ◾Eggs: 2 dozen it's great when Sam's Club has chicken breast on sale for just over $1 per pound. Dave - PM me your location. I wonder how close you are to me...

HBD to me! Just had a wonderful dinner and my sister for the first time drove me to a Walmart. Right at the front of the peg was the 2 I was looking for; Tensai and Sandow! There was another Tensai along with the rest of the set. This is the first time in a long time that someone has reported something new and finding it one shot!
