Wonder what happened to the textured cape? Other than that though, looks pretty much the same after 3 years.

It's SOLD OUT?

I just checked their website the exclusive is not on there anymore
I'm sure a few will pop up with credit card declines, etc, later this week and next but it probably won't be for very long. Glad i got my "amazing technology" EX mask.

Use the archive search on the bottom of the website, or pull-up the regular Grievous and add a "1" to the end of his address on the site, hit enter and you'll be redirected to the exclusive page.
It's on waitlist. Anyone wanting the exclusive should hop on ASAP. Like Wor-Gar says, there are bound to be a bunch of card declines/cancellations coming soon. And yep, I love that battle-damaged mask.

Hey thanks for the info Invictus. I did not know this, Since I pick up the exclusive on all my figures (if they have one). This is the first I had to resort to the regular.

I say just get a Regular. The EX is not a big deal breaker but if you did jump on the waitlist now you may actually get converted. Up to you. No matter what. After this is sold out both EX and Regular both will be top dollar in the after market.
Yea. the prices on these will skyrocket once they are gone.

how do you get on the wait list?
On the SSC page for the item, there should be a button that says WAITLIST that will allow you to be put on it. If you don't see one, then there is no waitlist for that particular item.
Just got on the waitlist for the exclusive. Man, it was available 36 hrs ago or so. Figures seem to be selling out very fast lately.
Well this would be the first SS SW that sold out prior to shipping in a very long time. Probably a result of the uniqueness of the character -- everyone seems to want this one on their shelf. Things might change once a few people have it in hand and we get a semblance of opinions. And we all know that this is basically a one-off. Not very likely SS will double-dip on this character. So the demand is high -- no one waiting it out for the "other movie version" like Fett and Vader.

Requested my final Flex-pay to be brought forward so I can get it ASAP and my final payment date is now 2/14/14. Not long.
I remember when exclusives used to sell out winthin a few minutes.
I know, and that was back when SS was making 5,000 or more Exclusive figures with a regular run of 25,000 units (like Bespin Han). I guess when the figs were $50 it was a no-brainer for a lot more folks. Now its just us well-to-do OCD types.

I think the price of figures has a lot to do with it for sure, got to be a lot more selective now.

Yeah, I guess that was before my time. I used to collect 3 3/4 Hasbro figures for years, but stopped about 2 years ago. 1/6 seemed much more interesting. And of course, more $$$. I guess its hard sor SS to judge the demand on a figure. I would think they'd make enough exclusives to last at least a month or so after release? Guess not. I was waiting for in hand pics before I jumped. Oh well, if I don't get one, there's tons of others I want. This hobby is my crack!
