With the looming Trump tariffs, I assume Sideshow is expecting a LOT of cancellations and probably placed a much smaller order for a lot of new figures as a result.
 
Got my order in a few weeks back.

I'm sure you'll be able to find him and Maul from other retailers overseas when they do release, but glad I got my order in.

Good point, this presidency has been a disaster already a few days in, these tariffs might affect a lot of people's collecting habits if he goes through with them.
 
I believe many people are unaware that tariffs serve as a means to bring someone to the negotiating table. They are not absolute.

Current tariff casualties over here:
*Inart Paul Atreides
*HT Terminator, damaged version

And I really want both those figures.... of course as soon as I cancelled Atreides, he shipped. Had I known that I would have kept him. I was expecting later on in the year, when these tariffs will really start to bite.

With Arnie its more complicated, he's very expensive.... and then the Wolfpack showed up. [A surprise, but a pleasant one nonetheless.] Right now only ppl I cant live without are on my list. If I can get all these guys paid for beforehand, I will pick Arnie back up if he's still available.

(the tariffs) are not absolute.

They're sure not; they could well go even higher, depending on the childish pique of the individual making the decision. The last number for China that I saw floated was 60%.
