Check the QnA for the 19th. Gandalf is officially on the Buck.
Okay, thanks! Been too busy to track down every lead. No biggie I guess, he can be upgraded later. I guess there's still a remote chance they'll change it later on...?
I just CANCELLED this and ordered another Indy.
Sorry, but I will never, EVER pay $90 for a figure on a Buck body.
A shame, too... GTG is vital. I may get this from a retailer or use a Gift Card when it inevitably hits Second Chance.

So you're getting a 4th one now? Thats insane, almost as insane as canceling this kickass figure.

Sorry to hear that, but I do share your pain. I think Gandy's gonna end up being worth it in the end, and nobody says they won't change their minds and use the new figure body later on. I'm not thrilled about the price with the buck body either, but I've been pestering Sideshow for Gandalf for too long to pass on him now!

I really would like to hear Sideshow justify the cost increase.
I hope they do exactly that. It would help a lot of us who are having a tough time making sense of the whole situation.
Maybe they just made a mistake and the "8" is really supposed to be a "6".

$69.99 would have been a reasonable price for this figure.

I think that is about right because the hobbits are $69.99 with the new body and all that intricate detailing.

Sideshow Chris, get one that.
Big deal he's on the buck body. Probably one of the last figures to be on it too. He comes with a lot of stuff and its been said these LOTR figures are by far the hardest to make. I'm not gonna cancel him that's for sure especially since it only cost me $8 bucks.
Well, I wouldn't have cancelled him if he only cost me $8 either.
But $90? Almost $100 after shipping? No way... I just can't justify that. The math just doesn't add up for me at all.
I will not cancel it either. There is no way I would. Still..... it puts the Hobbit price debate in a whole new light though.

Ya you can really tell that there is more time put in the LOTR figures over the SW figures just because the costumes in LOTR are super super complex. Things of beauty

I canceled mine through SSC and ordered from Dark Shadow. The book isn't worth $9 to me.

It never does Carl.
As long as your totally in it adds but if there's any kind of doubt it just doesn't.The LOTR figures are the hardest ones for SS to make they've siad that. The costumes are harder than SW (except armored), and maybe even Indy for that matter. He comes with a **** pile of stuff, amazing likeness, crazy detailing, etc. I can grasp the price at least. I don't like it mind you but I can grasp it.

It does that. The Hobbits I believe though is due to the new body more than anything on top of the other little things. Normally I'd say these would have been like $50.

I agree with ya Ringer.
Is his costume really that much more complex than Sidious/Palpatine, though? And that was TWO highly-detailed figures that came with as many (or more) accessories for only $30 more total. That's part of why I can't figure out GTG's pricepoint.
