Dark Toys 1/6 Rick Deckard

[Asta]

Give it a week or so and I'm sure they'll be touch, if not before - I also ordered him from them too.

With supply being messed up at the moment stores seem to be receiving their deliveries at different times lately.

Having paid in full, which I've sometimes done with them on cheaper items, to lock in a low shipping quote and get the 3% saving, you get less notice of something coming into stock (because there's no final invoice email).

I don't think I can pass on this. Hope it holds up in production.

Their Anton is quite good so fingers crossed...

Agreed.

I preferred Star Ace's for everything apart from the shotgun and boots.

Hopefully the one big downside with Dark Toys' Anton - the exposed neck joint - will be eliminated on Rick because his shirt is fastened to the top button.

I'm really hoping Redman are fans of the original Blade Runner, and bring their 'A' game to this one. At least we can't accuse them of rushing the figure out, though it has snuck out just before the Chinese New Year.

Totally agree, especially with the neck joint/shirt issue. I was pleasantly surprised when I opened up Anton.

For now, we have a picture of the box

That isn’t an out of box photo. Kit often shows photos of an “in hand” box accompanied by a prerelease promotional photo. As of now, we still haven’t seen photos of the final product…other than the box.

Damn, this will be like the 4th 3rd party figure for me in 4 months….I only have one HT figure on order in the past 2 years….

BUT ….this has to go with these guys…

Now he's out, I suspect it won't be long before in hand pics start appearing.

Yeah I have it preordered on 1/6 kit, but I am not paying my invoice until I see how it looks. Too much money for me to spend on something mediocre.

Sounds like a prison break.

I paid the balance on mine. Can't wait to get this one.

Got my order in with KG, as Giantoy had just sold out.

 

[okieh 2]

Also just pre-ordered at KG

 

[Cocoboloboy]

KG it is then.

 

[BACON!]

I went with TNS for this, as KG was not letting the purchase go through. Not a fan of either KG or TNS at this point

This reminds me that it took me over a year and like a dozen emails to get KG to send me a replacement regular head for my Deckard because it arrived with severe paint scuffs (and my figure was also missing some accessories). And after all that time and effort they finally sent me a replacement head, except it was the incorrect “bloody” sculpt instead of the regular. So yeah, I always chime in to recommend avoiding KG when possible.

I stopped using KGH for a while, then got lured back in via reward points and discounts.

I much prefer OneSixthKit for communication, delivery speed and service in general. Giantoy is good too.

TNS is my least favourite, to put it mildly.

No final invoice from Kghobby yet

Give it time, I'm eagerly awaiting for it too.

 

[FlyAndFight]

I just ordered yesterday so may be a while longer for me.

This better be a good figure, out of the box!
