This isn't something I've tried; but I think a good start would be to go to http://www.firstlegoleague.org/nobanner.aspx?pid=0 and find out what the nearest country is that does have one then try and get in touch with the person who's organising it's country page and ask for some help/advice (they may be able to help with shipping things faster than you'd get them from the US if there's a local distributor in that country).
