Save ₩52,000 on the LEGO Icons Tuxedo Cat (10345) by sourcing from US retailers

The 2026 demand for the LEGO Icons Tuxedo Cat (10345)

The LEGO Icons Tuxedo Cat (10345) remains a high-velocity item in the collectibles market throughout early 2026. Since its initial rise in popularity, this set has become a staple for pet enthusiasts and interior designers alike. The intricate 1,710-piece build offers a life-sized aesthetic that mimics a real feline, making it a persistent favorite among the South Korean AFOL (Adult Fans of LEGO) community. However, maintaining stock levels locally in Seoul and Busan has proven difficult, leading many to look toward North American inventory pools where supply is more stable and pricing is more competitive.

More about shipping to South Korea

South Korea price comparison and market analysis

Financial logic dictates that sourcing directly from the country of origin or primary distribution hubs yields the highest ROI for collectors. In South Korea, retail markups and limited local distribution often push the price of the Tuxedo Cat well above ₩150,000. In contrast, US retailers frequently offer top us deals that see this specific set priced at approximately $99.99 (roughly ₩133,000). When factoring in seasonal promotions at major US outlets, a smart shopper can save ₩52,000 or more compared to local boutique pricing. Utilizing a comGateway account allows you to leverage a tax-free US address, further reducing the acquisition cost before the item even leaves the warehouse.

Acquiring US-exclusive inventory from South Korea

The process of securing your LEGO set involves a few logistical steps to ensure the product arrives in mint condition. By using an international shipping service, you bypass the geographical restrictions often placed by US-based retailers. You simply shop at your preferred US store, use your assigned US address at checkout, and then manage the forwarding process. This step-by-step guide simplifies what was once a complex cross-border transaction into a routine online purchase.

Shipping Estimates and Logistics Analysis

As an expert in global logistics, I recommend evaluating the physical characteristics of the 10345 set to accurately budget your landed cost. Use the shipping calculator to get a precise quote based on these specifications:

• Box Weight: Approximately 2.4 lbs (1.1 kg).
• Box Dimensions: The retail packaging is medium-sized, typically measuring 15 x 10 x 4 inches (38 x 26 x 10 cm).

Volumetric Weight and Packaging Efficiency

While the LEGO Tuxedo Cat is relatively light, it is important to remember that logistics providers calculate costs based on the greater of actual weight or volumetric weight. Since LEGO boxes are rigid and contain a fair amount of air, they can be considered "bulky" relative to their weight. If you are purchasing multiple sets, I advise using a consolidation service to minimize the dimensional footprint and lower the per-item shipping rate.

Battery and Safety Compliance

Regarding safety regulations, the LEGO Icons Tuxedo Cat (10345) does not contain lithium batteries or electronic components. This simplifies the export process significantly, as you do not need to worry about the specific shipping rules that apply to hazardous materials or restricted electronics. It is classified as a standard toy for customs purposes.

Overcoming payment hurdles with BuyForMe

A frequent friction point for South Korean shoppers is the payment barrier. Several prominent US retailers, including those that stock the Icons series, often enforce strict security protocols that block international credit cards or cancel orders directed to known freight forwarder addresses. This is where the "BuyForMe" service becomes essential. By utilizing this assisted purchase program, a US-based team purchases the LEGO set on your behalf using a domestic US payment method. This effectively eliminates the risk of order cancellation and ensures you can access inventory from stores that are otherwise inaccessible to international buyers.

South Korean Import Regulations for LEGO

Importing goods into South Korea requires adherence to the de minimis threshold. Currently, for goods shipped from the US, you can generally enjoy duty-free entry if the total value of your shipment (including domestic US shipping and insurance) is under $200 USD. Since the LEGO Icons Tuxedo Cat (10345) typically retails for $99.99, it falls well within this tax-free limit for personal use.
