If I get on the wait list now and it converts in the next few weeks I'm going to be charged the NRD too soon. I would rather take my chances and get on the wait list a little later, like tonight or tomorrow morning, and buy myself more time to see if Sideshow makes any changes. As it stands now I would rather save $70 and buy the regular version since I don't like the exclusive head sculpt.
I don't think Sideshow is going to close this wait list for at least a week or two, maybe longer. I have plenty of time. If I miss out, I'm not going to be upset because I'm not sold on the exclusive as-is.
