Waitlist for a SDCC product? I guess they won't be taking any pre-orders on the floor whatsoever afterall. Sucks for those who are used to that but don't know about Sideshow's entirely new approach to SDCC.
Butfor Hammerhead!!!
With the rather ease at which Sideshow items seem to appear/ disappear off wait lists I wouldn't be too worried.

Exactly my point. Unsculpted bits exposed by the 1-piece suit would likely be an eyesore.

I realize that in the film it was a guy wearing a hammerhead hat, but the figure looks too much like a guy wearing a hammerhead hat. The neck and arms look way too human for me. The sculpt is awesome but I just don't like the way it sits.
Eh. It's Hammerhead. He needs to just be sitting in his nook anyway. 
Only collectors who have to pose every figure in 47 different positions and take 63,000 photos will encounter that issue.

Yes ! That's why i let this one go !
If you look at all the other figures of him like hasbro and etc his head taperns into his body. Even look at Treve's sculpt he did for sideshow to get a job it's 10 times better than this. They should have tapered the bottom of the head to fit the body or made a bigger upper body.
As you said it looks like they got a action figure then popped the Hammer Head Street Shark toy on the top ! ....

Eh, I can't see any issues with this figure, I think it looks excellent. I ordered one and can't wait to get it. Finally something a little different than usual.

Now I can't stop seeing it like that. I knew something was off about it and it was exactly this.
Also, I'll bang on about the price point of this [although I used the last of my reward points to take a bit off of him]. The Gammy was an entirely new body yet this is the Pro and the same price.
Somehow Sideshow's policy of [It's a man in a suit so we must make it look like a man in a suit] goes far too much in my opinion.

If there was ever cause to use this emoticon...
Its fairly typical for hidden parts of a figure to be stock parts. And in this case it does make sense as it follows the concept art and what Hasbro did with their figure.
I'd still love a blue jumpsuit, but I respect the direction Sideshow took with him.

Who wears a blue onesy to go drinkin'?
I love my old Kenner figure, but I'd feel completely gypped to be getting a collectible with such a simple (and unflattering) outfit. I'm so glad they went with a costume that was (for all we can see) movie accurate.
Looks like the movie = Customikey is happy.

I checked the other day. He's on screen for under 9 seconds and for a split second after Ponda gets killed.
I am digging SS taking risks with their SW license. Granted most failed for me however, Hammerhead and Gammorean Guard my be my first SS purchases since Vader. They look absolutely amazing.
