Hong Kong Sideshow Statues

[jasong888]

Happy Holidays All!!!
So i'm out in HK for vacation and haven't had my fix of sideshow statues in a while. i was curious if anyone knew of any good places that sells them (or even recasts them...i'm curious how good they look)? if anyone can help me out and make some good recommendations, i would appreciate it. also open to good suggestions what to do in hk. i was thinking of checking out some electronics or something while i'm here and see how far behind the US is on technology lol. thanks everyone and hope everyone is having a great, safe holidays!!!

Heck, I don't even trust an item from HK:

Mong Kok, along Nathan Road, there is the Sino Center that used to have a couple stores inside which sold Sideshow stuff. Also, in one street from Nathan Road there are a bunch of little malls, a few of which have them (one was called the "Trendy Zone"). The Hot Toys company is located right there as well, and the stuff there is not recast.

Outside of Mong Kok, however, I'd be very careful if you see any Sideshow stuff to purchase.

They way Sideshow is handling the new releases one of these days we are going to see recasts with better painting jobs!

There is one street sale all the toys, collection, but the price is not cheap, that is why I never buy any from there

When I went to HK earlier this year, I visited a few stores (Toy Maniacs for one) in the mong kok area (sp?) and was blown away, that being my introduction to Hot Toys. I wanted to buy up the whole store, but given the fact that I was already going to struggle fitting everything in my suitcase, I had to let the opportunity slip by.

Considering that you will have to pack them in your suitcase and pray they do not get destroyed by baggage handling, I think you would just be better off purchasing on-line.
