Hi Pedro -
Thanks for your interest!

You can probably understand why I don't want to give a definite answer here,
but I really hope this will be the case. Like I said before, when I went to
LEGOWORLD, there was an overwhelming amount of interest.
I'm already in contact with a couple people in the Netherlands who could
make this happen if we decide to go that route. It's definitely high on our
priority list for things to look into.
I wouldn't expect a European edition right away, though. For the time being,
we will be looking into shipping the US edition overseas, while gathering
interest in foreign markets. Once we feel the interest is high enough, we
can start talking about a European edition, possibly in a couple languages
if there's a demand and if we can find translators.

Good suggestions, thanks!

Yep! If we establish distribution in the Netherlands, there is no reason we
can't mail to other countries in Europe, especially with the uniform postage
rates you mentioned.
