Anyone know any Canadian sites carrying 1/32-54mm plastic figs such as Accurate, AIP etc. with reasonable shipping? The shipping from "the states" is very expensive!

I can't answer your question, but I can offer a thought: I guess that a significant portion of the shipping cost is based on the soldier packaging, and the size of the shipping box required to hold the soldier boxes so, perhaps AiP can simply dump figures out of their soldier boxes and into a shipping box, saving weight and size? It's not going to hurt the figures any.

Try some of the large English firms that do mail order. I use Hannants.
