Just received the GeoDome set from Xmarx.com and I was pretty blown away.  First the set only sets you back roughly $10 Plus shipping.

Give Brian at Xmarx a shout.  I am sure he can work out a much better shipping deal for ya.  The figures don't weigh that much.

Those LRM and SRM Launchers are awesome, too. The LRMs in particular look like they would make a great Hyperios/Hunter battery.

I tried that through their eBay store and didn't get anywhere.

Unfortunate, as I really like the models but their postage is silly.

Don't mess with the ebay store.  Go direct to the Xmarx.com website.  You will also receive a discount by buying there instead.  Definitely send Brian an email about shipping.

What other items do you think would go good with the Geo Domes?

The solar panels, and maybe some storage tanks (and if he doesn't do pipes, check out Old Crow's 6mm/15mm pipe sets).

Looking seriously worth trying.
As for postage, there's some to read about how Paypal don't offer it up in a good way and that direct contact ought to help you out.

PayPal has limited shipping options, therefore the shipping amount listed may seem high.  If this is the case, email me and I’ll check it and send you a corrected estimate.

Beautiful.
I don't think they'll really fit in with the grim-dark 40k feel but they'll fit in perfectly with my GZG games. Now just to get around the postage issues.
Silly postage to Australia  :sulk:

Sorry if anyone's offended by a Zombie thread.

For reference, USPS priority mail is running between $12 and $30 for flat-rate boxes of various sizes, with a max weight of 4 lb. Xmarx would be likely to ship priority mail, so you should be able to get a fairly good volume of castings for that shipping rate.
