A belated thanks to Vladivar for posting this-
E: 29/07 Win a Life Size Terminator Endoskeleton
SIDESHOW COLLECTIBLES
Limit one entry per person. All U.S. and International winners will have the ship cost of their prize waived by Sideshow Collectibles for any prize granted by Sideshow Collectibles during this giveaway. International winners will be responsible for VAT, duties or import fees on the shipment of their prize that may be assessed by their governments. Due to custom requirements, the prize will be assigned a value of at least US$1.
I didn't win the main prize, but the runner up prize which was worth $900. It included-
TGX Battalion Tactical Backpack
Solar E Panels for charging all your gadgets
Vapur Eclipse Anti-Bottle
Swedish FireSteel to start a spark
Lithiumcard Hypercharger for your phone
LuminAid Solar inflatable lamp
Tablift tablet holder
Kicker KPw Wireless Speaker System
Astro A30 Gaming Headphones
Pro Tech Precision Screwdriver Set (Perfect for Sixth Scale Figures!)
Universal Gadget Wrist Charger
Credit card sized light bulb
Instant photo printer and film
Wallet Ninja 18-in-1 Pocket Multi Tool
DoohicKey wrench
I was a bit worried about the shipping/import duties that I might off had to pay, but the parcel just turned up on my doorstep this morning.
Just thought I'd let people know that if you enter competitions from Sideshow Collectables or ThinkGeek.com you may not have to pay customs duties or shipping costs after all.
Thank-you everyone for posting, I've had a very very long dry spell so this win has really spurred me on to keep going. :j

Sometimes they do - then you get an invoice a week later for the import duties + VAT
I had a package from USA a few months ago then around 8 days later a letter from Royal Mail for just over £40 for the fees0 -
