A guide for this piece: about $111, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

Sylvester stands innocent and wide-eyed, hiding Tweety behind his back in one gloved paw: a large 1998 figurine from the Warner Bros. Studio Store, still with its original box.
The Piece
The Warner Bros. Studio Stores, opened from 1991 in malls across America and later in Japan and Europe, commissioned their own range of character pieces, and the large display figurines were the showpieces of the shops. This Sylvester and Tweety model stands a substantial 35.5 centimetres, designed to anchor a shelf rather than sit among trinkets.
Sylvester is modelled upright in glossy black and white with his great red nose and the scruffy white muzzle, eyes rolled sideways in his most guilty expression. Turn him around and the joke lands: Tweety sits in his paw behind his back, bright yellow with blue eyes, looking entirely unconcerned. The cat's tail curls around his feet. The base is marked TM and copyright 1998 Warner Bros. The original box is printed with Sylvester and Tweety Figurine and the Warner Bros. Studio Store logo.
