Re: Blitzway - 1/6 Scale Ghostbusters - Collectible Figures and ECTO-1

Time walker confirmed imminent arrival in an email just now, so yeah.

Great seller super fast shipping and spoke to them and confirmed on the way. My only worry is if custom ports hold them up other then that bring on the reviews pics. I'm sure a bunch of reviewers i bet running around to find a seller to be 1st to review for ton extra bucks lol. I cant wait to see all crazy flipper price's. I know i'm never selling mine not many will being so nostalgic for us all.

Got that TW email too. They want full payment (June 23) which is about 3-4 weeks before they ship them out.

The classic "Imminent Arrival" by TW. I'm not sure that they understand what imminent means as they do this with a lot of releases. One of the reasons why I stopped ordering from them. I'm guessing they want to charge even earlier this time around because they'll have to pay Bluefin a large sum.

Anyways, finally made some space to display these guys and the ecto-1 so Also looking forward to what Blitzway will reveal next after these guys are finally released..

I got the timewalker email too. Pretty early to charge but I'll cut them some slack being a smaller shop. Better not still be waiting for them in august though. Looking forward to them!

i set my budget to pay my 4 off in august which hopefully by then we all seen in hand pics and decent review. I'm not worried just wish blitzway was posting or sharing more final pic's.

They're probably trying to head off the crappy early release photos and the resultant cancellations that happened with Tyler Durden. If Timewalker Toys' order is as big as they're suggesting it is, I'm guessing they're glad about that--get orders charged (if not shipped) before people see production figures and perhaps change their minds.

As suggested from the Tyler fallout, there are plenty of professional fan photographers/reviewers that Blitzway could send pre-release figures to in order to head off the crappy smartphone pictures. I have faith in Blitzway, but limiting pre-release access to production figures is not necessarily a good thing---could be construed similarly to the way movie studios restrict early movie reviews to limit bad press coverage before release. But again, I have faith in Blitzway and they must know the heat is on to deliver.

Yeah, I have faith that blitzway will give us good production figures. It's the classic ghostbusters you can't go wrong.

Looking forward to getting these but not looking forward to the final payment and import charge. It's going to be like Christmas getting 4 figures at once.

Very good poont about billing before in hand cell pics.

If you are the type of person that would cancel a pre-order because you don't like the way in-hand pictures look, you shouldn't be placing a pre-order in the first place.

Sideshow Forum Divas don't understand there's a drop off between professional photographs, and cell phone pics.

An extreme drop off.

Blitzway have yet to release a figure that is not arguably a masterpiece...whatever the first pictures look like there is no way that this set will not be another home run in hand.

You can count on me to give you the best I've got, especially for folks on the fence, and you can definitely count on on a full 4K review.

Bravo......

Timewalker has never asked for final payment when to their knowledge the figure was delayed. I am quite sure they got on the phone to double check since they ordered quite a few.
Because TWT is a smaller shop, they will ship later than other retailers....but I would rather give them my money than SS .....their customer service sucks...


It may take a few weeks to get them across the river and though all the customs.

My guess it's they are sitting somewhere packed in crates ready to be shipped. They would have to be already boxed at Blitzway if they made this statement.

Such negativity......and yet people cut HT slack on figures that have been "in production" for literally years...

I guess I'm ok with the early TW final payment ( even if it's a month before they ship). I have total trust in BW and the early PO price came out to $214 per figure shipped for the Doc set, so really, there's not much to complain about.

Looking forward to that since these will likely take a little longer to get to here to the UK.

Out of interest are you also getting the BvS Wonder Woman for review?

Great stuff. I notice you inspired Dean Knight to start shooting in 4K also

Anybody know if there's imminent arrival for those who bought these from Flossies?

Re: Blitzway - 1/6 Scale Ghostbusters - Collectible Figures and ECTO-1

I've had my gb set paid off at timewalker for months...who cares if you gotta pay a little early, you'd have paid for them either way and since payment will be done ahead of time that should speed up the shipping process
