True, but only LotR fans would buy Gollum, where as with Vampirella, several different kinds of fans come into play including ones that just collect the sexy ladies.

Re: Gollum PF available NOW!, Link to buy in 1st post...
This is unproductive ranting on my part: The NRD is crap! Especially when edition sizes are changeable with the wind. I hope it takes a long time for this to sell out, at least that will limit the total number being put out. I don't trust sideshow edition sizes anymore, they are killing themselves by pulling stunts like this. Now if the production pieces suck, I will seriously have to think twice before I order anything. Getting really tired of giving sideshow my money.

I am a little skeptical on this "fast" sellout given how stale the LOTR line seems to be. I expect many wait lists to convert.

Now that SSC has received their 500 NRD's does that mean wait list orders that convert before the shipping date won't be required to pay one?

Re: Gollum PF available NOW!, Link to buy in 1st post...
You might be charged as soon as it converts. So I'd be sure you wanted it before you put it on waitlist.

Re: Gollum PF available NOW!, Link to buy in 1st post...
Did anyone do the math...
500 statues
x $30.00 NRD
------------
$15,000.00 NRD
Remember that this calculation is only for the Gollum PF!
How much does that put into SS pocket for people that cancel?
Makes me think that not to many cancelations will happen.
Yes, the statue took longer to sell out. My hope is that they went to the people that really want it. I don't know how many times I have seen a statue sell out in minutes only to be back as a second chance once released. Even worse, end up on the secondary market forcing the true collector to pay a higher price to obtain it.
I for one like NRD.
Thank you SS

Re: Gollum PF available NOW!, Link to buy in 1st post...
Yeah NRD is fine with me. I feel that so, so many people actually just order any SS exclusive with no real intention of keeping their orders. They only do it because of the edition sizes mainly and then when it is ready to come out, they either cancel or re-sell in the aftermarket.
I'm fine with this system because it lets the true fans get what they want. You only pre-order if you truly want it.

Re: Gollum PF available NOW!, Link to buy in 1st post...
I agree, with SS's new NRD policy the people who order SS statues just because they feel like it, are going to become a thing of the past. Sure, there will be some cancellations due to unforseen circumstances, but nothing like what's been going on in recent years.
And yes, Gollum would have sold out on day one had there been no NRD, but alot of those who put in their orders, and who weren't really serious about owning the PF certainly would have bailed prior to shipping.

Re: Gollum PF available NOW!, Link to buy in 1st post...
I say there will be plenty of cancels due to the learning curve with NRD. I think that:
1. Many still ordered out of habit. The $30 "pay to play" is nothing for some right now.
2. It feels as if Sideshow is still playing games with the low quantity alert bar, only in a more slow and calculated way.
