1/6 Hot Toys - MMS298 - Star Wars: Episode IV - Princess Leia Collectible Figure

Well that was the easiest, no-brainer purchase I've made in a while. Now I just hope HT doesn't make any last minute changes to the sculpt.

Yes, my hope as well.

Although it's great that they attempted to fix Solo, surprising everyone with a completely new headsculpt (as opposed to a tweak of the proto that people actually ordered) is not a great precedent. Given how close this is to release I'm guessing they don't have time to mess with it any further.

Yes, ordered with Flexpay. I don't have much of a choice. Have limited funds and am disabled.

It's cool, probably most people that order from SSC break-up the payments. My understanding is that even though it says "cancellation fees apply", you will not be charged anything if you cancel before the first payment is processed. If you cancel afterwards and didn't pay an NRD, then I believe it's $20 per payment processed. If you paid an NRD, then that takes the place of the Flex cancellation fees, regardless of how many have been made.

Price is good. With a coupon it goes down to $184.99, where this figure feels like it should be priced at in the first place given how barebones it is.

I'll probably wait on her until Luke is released though.

This will probably be one of the few recent figures with no surprises from pre-order to receiving in hand. (aside from the mystery backdrop.)

No NFD but it still has a cancellation fee of $25 if you cancel. Looks like you have to be 100% certain before you order something anymore.

At least there is on the Exclusive version. They specify that because it's a limited edition, they can charge the $25 cancellation fee. Since this is the one i ordered, i don't know if it applies to the regular.

Where does SS disclose there is a $25 charge for cancelling?

It that's true, I may have pulled the trigger to soon for the EX. I got so excited that SS was not charging a NRD, I placed an order without thinking. Sales tax and SS's inflated shipping costs kind of kills it if I end up not liking that mysterious backdrop.

BBTS would be about $30 less (for a non EX).

First Star Wars by Hot Toys that I am going for without having production pics. Have been saving my points so just PO'd her for $153.00. Now I am probably going to cave and get Luke as well.

Seems like it's just the standard flexpay cancellation notice.

He ordered with Flexpay so he's talking about those fees. If you ordered with one-time payment, you can definitely cancel without penalty.

Luke's right up there with Leia, I think. My two favourites from the line-up, so far (excluding Stormies).

Easy pre-order. Surprised she's so low but I won't complain.

Great price, no NRD, already POed from SSC.

I just dont understand the point of that all black background that is included with her.

They threw in an absolutely useless item just to have "something".

The blackness of space. A reminder of how our lives will be if we don't own every figure. Something like that.

I'm going to wait for this to become coupon eligible, the backdrop doesn't seem like a must have.

Yeah I probably should have waited as well... but I've been looking forward to this for so long, and was so blown away by the reveal, that I just had to order it immediately anyway.

Yeah, I kinda can't believe this is how far it's come
