Anyone know when the Sideshow live chat crew gets back from lunch? I'm trying to get them to charge and ship this out to me ASAP!

Sideshow's website sometimes is just plain weird. It says they're closed but yet it's not even 5 pm over there yet and sometimes when you call it says the same thing but when you call again......you get through I think the next batch should be shipping in 1 week or 2.......I can't wait anymore.

Give it a shot and as long as they have enough left over from PO....most likely you will get yours if you decide to pay in full.

Not sure but I tried to do that the other day but denied me. lol
Have him on flex.

That is strange.......I guess it's a hit or miss. Also, that's because inventory is zero and if they had some sitting around, I'm sure they would allow it.

That's what I am thinking, hopefully soon.

Past week, they said me that I must wait for the next batch, and when I asked "when" they said me "...very soon".

Been waiting for that live chat button to work since I made that post. I'm starting to think they aren't on a lunch break... Guess I'll try again tomorrow.

Still, I can't help but feel a little irritated that they're live chat is off when it's supposed to be on...

The live chat button wasn't working at all for days and days. I just don't think they turn it on much as they are catching up with post-Christmas stuff. I called and asked if I could get my Luke Flexpay moved up. They said yes, changed it... and still no Luke shipping. I was charged yesterday. Maybe they are just really backlogged.

Loving this figure. It's met all my expectations. The posing options are endless as are the accessories. It's a beautiful collectable

Here's my very quick snap of the 'lightsaber discovery' pose

Really nice. That's all Hamill to my eye. It's a great package, enjoy!

That's been happening with me also.

Although from what I've heard from others who work in production businesses that have to ship out orders, a business can't fully deduct money from you for a product if they don't intend to ship the item out at least the next day. I've heard they can actually get audited for that.

Not sure how accurate that is, but it's just what I've heard.

Harkens back to the old vintage 12 inch Luke for me. My brother had this in around 1980 and I just adored the figure. The lightsaber and grappling hook accessories just clinched it for me. Attaching to the belt just seemed so amazing!

This particular figure brings about similar emotions for me. Approaching 40 I still feel the same attachment and feelings of wonder that I felt at 5.

It's such a beautiful figure. Now on to opening that Han and chewie set I have somewhere in my geek room.....

Finally got round to opening Luke and he's really awesome, probably my favourite Hot Toys Star Wars figure now.

 

[WhoaItsJBot]

Anyone have a good closeup of the lightsaber?

 

[Darth_IMPoor]

Great figure, lotsa goodies. 1st of many display options.

"LUKE'S BACK"


(I darth_impoor'd him a little. Won't be everyone's cup of tea, but I like him)

Looks good. Like the goggles around the neck. Did you swap out the pants, leg wrap, and shoes?

 

[Darth_IMPoor]

Just the pants and leg wraps. Shoes are HT, wraps are SS.

Well looks really nice. Did you paint the color to match? Looks seamless.

He is mine too.

Looks exceptionally well done. Makes the previous Bespin Luke dx07 looks like a relic with the goggly eyes and the ill fitting outfit.

 

[Darth Fok]

Pictures look great. Can't wait to get him. Will probably display him with the droids.
