1/6 Hot Toys - CMS016D58 Doctor Aphra (Marvel Comic): 0-0-0 (Triple-Zero)

[Brokenhandpuppet]

Got mine! Feels good to get a win, glad to see others got him as well.

This lottery system is garbage. Not once have I been under 2000 people in these queues, meanwhile ive seen people be top 500 for every figure they've entered for, makes absolutely no sense to me.

Started at #678 and got one.

Going to be an expensive figure with tax as I only had $15 in rewards left, but at least I secured him.

Now to wait for Kit to list BT-1.

He said it would be dodgy getting 0-0-0 as it depended how many Sideshow secured and how popular he would be in the Hong Kong Hot Toys stores.

I have no idea who this is, but they do look cool. Looks like a pretty easy cash grab for HT and a flipper's delight.

Those #s had to be lying, especially since I was 800+ in line and just before I got in they had only sold 25% of their stock.

 

[Buttmunch]

I was over a thousand, maybe two, in the queue at first. Wasn’t looking too closely as I was in a meeting. Meeting ended and just secured one. So there may be a lot of people checking it out and passing. Don’t give up!

 

[Mike86]

Got one. Didn’t necessarily plan on getting this but the limited edition aspect roped me in.

Those #s had to be lying, especially since I was 800+ in line and just before I got in they had only sold 25% of their stock.

That 25% left message lasted for most of the time I was waiting and never changed, so maybe people were in the queue who weren't intending to buy?

Going... Going... and...

Here's the current message status:

(10:19AM PT) The dark side is calling. 75% of our 0-0-0 Figures are claimed for the Empire.

(10:14AM PT) Don’t give in to fear… 50% of our 0-0-0 Figures are already torturing new victims.

(10:08AM PT) Sensors indicate that 25% of our 0-0-0 Figures have found their new masters.

That was my experience too. Switched over to just 50% a minute before it was my turn. And I was at least 1,000th place in line so either Sideshow got a huge allotment or many are passing or the numbers in the queue are just way off.

There is a 10 minute reservation once it’s in your cart so they will likely pause the queue for 10 minutes as it gets close to selling out for those cart reservations to expire and then start the wait list.

Hope everyone that wants one is able to get an order in!

 

[Asta]

(10:22AM PT) Current protocol dictates that 90% of our 0-0-0 Figures are engaged in new missions.

I didn't realize this was another one of those get in line to preorder figures. Is this character really that popular? Dang, I should have jumped on. Although not sure if this is something I'd ever display.

Lots of people are opening multiple browsers, hence why the numbers don’t seem to make sense. I for one had 12 browsers open across 4 different devices, lowest number I had was 47 and highest was like 2300.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

Don’t have a clue why I make it to the order page but it won’t let me buy it. In someone else’s cart? What?

That happened to me with one of the Spider-Man’s. Ended up really early on the wait list and it converted eventually. Good luck Coco!

I’ve been apprehensive with trying that but if they don’t limit it by IP address that might be the best thing to do. Really screwy system.
