Any idea on how big the statue is?

If the promo pictures are to scale, then I would say just under the size of a Blu-ray case.

That's if it's to scale.

I believe that so far, only Amazon.co.uk have listed this. I have Tweeted SEGA and asked them if they could possibly give detals as to which stores will be stocking it. I do hope Amazon don't have the exclusive...

Not sure if anyone else from NA wanted to get their hands on this, but Amazon.de actually ships worldwide, unlike amazon.co.uk and amazon.fr (I personally wasn't able to check out with the game on either of those sites). Preordered a copy as I loved the blue guy back in the days.

If you want a English version you could also order from Jb-hf-fi from Australia. although not exactly cheap, they ship worldwide aswell.

For some reason, I couldn't check out on their website either. I tried with different browsers and computers, but no good. Every time I enter my address and try to save it, it doesn't do anything. Not sure if it's been changed since, I should give it another try! ... otherwise the plan was to wait for the regular American game to hit the $20 bin (like all Sonic games do nowdays, poor guy).

I just created an account with them to test. I got all the way to the input your payment details page. Obviously didn't go any further.

Can you tell exactly where is the problem is.

I can't make it past the "Billing Details" pop up. Whenever I click "save", it doesn't actually save my address. I just noticed they take PayPal (only problem is that they would charge right away, I suppose).

Though my total with Amazon.de came out to €98 so that's roughly $134US (game was €84 and shipping&handling was €14). Guess it is cheaper to go with them, though not by much. What's odd is that Amazon shows the game as being €99E, not €84. Unless there's something I missed.

This is the difference in Tax percentage. In Germany it is 19% as oppose to the 6-8% in the Canada.

In most of Europe TAX is included in the display price, not sure why it is not in the US or CA.

Oh, right, taxes. Guess I've been buying too much on Ebay lately and actually forgot about them (I usually just buy from individuals so I rarely deal with taxes). I do wish they were included in the display price in North America to be honest. It's always a nasty surprise at the end. Would be so much better if they were just displayed right away. But thanks for pointing that out!
