Yeah, especially with the $10 shipping. This figure is from the good old days of no NRD too.
Re: 1/6 Hot Toys - MMS298 - Star Wars: Episode IV - Leia Organa Collectible Figure
Could be one of the last 1/6th Hot Toys to be under $200 shipped.

Ah crap, with Kenobi, Luke, Chewie and Han being $10, I thought this one was too.
Even Vader has the $10 goodness.

If it ain't got an NRD, good chance it WILL not have $10 flat shipping.

Seems like the lower-priced figures don't get flat-rate shipping - remember R2?

These coupons are just for free shipping any more.

Seems like none of the Sideshow Star Wars get the $10 shipping anymore, no matter what the figure price.

I searched back through my records and found three SSC figures with $10 shipping: Darth Vader Deluxe and the Echo Base/Hoth figures - I've only bought eight to ten of their own figures directly from them, with others both before and after the ones mentioned, at $13 and change shipping. R2 and the Scout Trooper the exceptions at over $15 and $18 respectively. OUCH.

Vader and the Hoth figures don't ship for $10 anymore, they're now all calculated too. In the end it's not the biggest deal as there are other places to order from. Just need to weigh the advantages of Sideshow: coupon, rewards, exclusives, they get the stock first. Not being in CA, Sideshow still makes the most sense for me in most cases.

For me the biggest "bonus" in ordering from Sideshow is when something is wrong with the QC on the figure and you need replacements. I have bought local and SSC said deal with the retailer, retailer said deal with SSC. My Yoda Jedi Master has two of the same hand/pose for the same side of the figure and none of that pose for the other. My Jedi Temple chair cushion was crooked as well. I broke apart the chair and reglued that myself and gave up on the hand. Ever since then I have been a bit on the fence about ordering other places as I had issues with Deluxe Vader (missing tusks on head), Dark Knight Catwoman (broken goggles) and don't want the run around. Coupon is awesome as in Los Angeles the tax is pretty much 10%. so the coupon goes for that.. Flat/cheap shipping was nice while it lasted.

Agreed, left that off the list, but being able to get replacement parts directly from SS is helpful for sure.

Just used the code on the exclusive HT Luke. How many times can you use the code? I'd like to order the exclusive Leia.

Just one coupon per account. So you'll have to wait until next month.

Re: 1/6 Hot Toys - MMS298 - Star Wars: Episode IV - Leia Organa Collectible Figure
Well, I'm not terribly worried, that head looks like it's still a resin prototype, so it's probably still an early test piece.
But. . . if I can't get a solid ANH crew, I don't want any of them. I'm okay with Han/Chewie, Luke's cool, I'm on the fence with Ben, and if Leia turns out poor, then the whole lot gets binned.
