Got an email saying they are charging the first Flexpay payment on the 15th.

The Taxman giveth and SideShow taketh away..

$180 at alterego.

Interesting...
I might end up getting these from somebody else, with the Shipping and CA tax, this will end up being more expensive than what it's worth...
...
Nevermind... it already is!!

I may ask Sideshow if I can change mine to flexpay.

 

[galactiboy]

Yep, most places sell Sideshow stuff for 10% below retail. If its not an exclusive item, I will usually buy from a retailer and save a few bucks.

I just canceled and it offered that as an option... but I'm just gonna take my chances with the secondary market.

 

[BuddyGus]

Yeah, I thought about alter ego too. But, the shipping to Hawaii is Ridiculous.

I'm riding this order out, always been a favorite element of Star Wars for me and I've been excited since the teaser that they were making this, now where to put it is the only question, I have a spot next to Jabba but not sure it can handle the weight, if not I have another spot not near Hutt that'll do for now.

Does anyone remember the actual dimensions and weight? I'm starting to think of building a shelf for this.

18.5" h

10" deep? That's insane. I believe you but why would it need to be as deep as it is wide?

10" deep? That's insane. I believe you but why would it need to be as deep as it is wide?

Probably because the piece is pretty heavy. The base needs to be wide to support it properly.

Depth is a mix of support for the piece, I'm sure the wall alone is 2-4" deep, then the steps coming outward probably add up to another 6" or so, with all the wight leaning forward with the Carbonite slab, it needs support.

That's also SSC estimates, those are sometimes off.

I thought this was a bit closer (based on the Flex schedule), hmmm oh well.

 

[Jango56031]

Looking at the side view pictures of it from the website I think it looks more like 6" deep than 10" deep. Anyone else think it looks less deep than listed?

It's due in April, how much closer did you think it would be?

 

[LOTRFan]

Somewhere in April, I guess I am just a bit skeptical given the Flexpays just starting.

 

[Dally]

2000 ES seems sort of low. Hopefully this is available down the line because if Sideshow makes a Boba Fett I'll definitely have to get this to go with him.

 

[MaulFan]

Well, I'm just bracing myself for April since the newsletter stated narrowed to, I would think if it weren't pretty certain to fall within April it would say April/May and not narrowed. The later the better.

I'm all with you up until the last part ........

 

[MaulFan]

Well, I'd like it tomorrow, but my wallet would feel better with a little delay
