I think we are in for a wait. I don't think they have even received their 30 day shipping notice from SS yet, which makes me think we will not have Bats until end of March at the earliest and Joker April some time. I have moved all of my orders to SS, just because I am tired of waiting. I ordered on day one and will get it approx 6 weeks after SS initial shipments to save about $10 with AE (if that).

And this is not even taking in to consideration if this release will be sent out in batch's which will delay even things further. Delay is one thing I hope they at least maintain the QC .
This will be a split shipment too. So plan on a month to six weeks after the initial shipment arrives. Just like Batman. The 2nd part of the shipment will be the part that goes to retailers... a month or so later.
This has been going on with Sideshow for a while now. Not sure why anyone is surprised. Sideshow takes care of their direct customers first. Retailers can wait.

Yeah, its getting the so $35-$40 difference because of CA tax isn't worth the 4-6 weeks delay. By the time I get it, no one cares.

You always crack me up.
Is this for certain, Wor-Gar, or just speculation?
I think it is the way of the future. IMO.
Ah, I see. Probly so. Probly so.

We've all become beta testers to weed out the first wave defects.
It's all part of the plan....

Really thought this guy would have been released by now; I can't have Batman until Joker's been out for at least a month!

I'm not surprised either. It's perfectly understandable for them to go this route since it gives consumers incentive to buy from them over everyone else first.

Even though Jack did well in the movie, I don't like him... He's cocky. David Bowie was much more suited to the role and would have been great.
that's hilarious man.

He's a good actor! And was actually considered before Nicholson popped in with his empty bags ready to be filled with cash
Bowie? That's a new one for me. Jack was a part of the mix that made the movie what it was...a smash hit in 1989 and a ground breaking Batman/Comic book movie.
