And Elder?

Nope no Elder yet. Too much money.

WOW! Just checked my e-mail and got the message that my WL is gonna be converted. That's awesome. While finances are tight and I really shouldnt be spending the money, this guy is one that I refuse to pass up. I love the Gort bio and the lost clan. I'll probably let go of some other items to keep this guy around. I have a spot for him next to the P2, P2 Elder and Losty. Building that Lost clan.
By the way my time was 17:03.

My guess is we are seeing a lot of conversions because there should be as many Guardian available as T1000 in disguise as those 2 were meant as HT's showcase at SDCC.
HT made late shipments therefore there was only a small number available for the PPO. Now that they're shipping more, we are seeing many got converted.

There wasn't a flex option during ordering, was there? Because I thought it was discovered that waitlists for flex and non-flex are unique lists. Happened during PZ server crash. I thought...

Yes, but I think I remember Dusty saying something about them definitely fixing that because of the backlash it caused (i.e. they didn't realize people were keeping track of it ).

WHOA! I also got the e-mail today saying my Wait List Guardian Predator is converting! Sweet!!! So I guess many of us on the wait list will be getting their Gort afterall! Awesome awesome day..! Good luck to everyone else! Just glad I had some patience with this and didn't pay over $400..!

 

[Sskaaar]

17:05...Converted

Are you serious? latest time I've seen converted is at 17:04:52. What was your exact time? If yours did convert, then you have the latest time. There is hope...17:05:44

My waitlist time should've been much earlier but just like everyone, I got the ordering ended message, should've been waitlist right away. I tried to go back and to get on the waitlist but the site wouldn't load.

 

[pred4life]

woo hoo, waitlist converted. 17.02.17

 

[Redwolf]

Converted! Thank you SS!

 

[TrackerPredator]

Wish I could have gotten this but money is tight right now.

Mines ready to ship Ive been looking at numbers for this,looks like USA Conic con got 500 pieces and i think the amount of wait list conversions is to do with people ordering this then not having the cash,or there sideshow accounts not matching up,or maybe with the berserker pred coming out they cancelled Gort.

Looking at the Tokyo 2010 toys fair they too have got 500 so there is at least 1000 of these pieces.

its still ultra rare and for any serious predator collector its a Must Have!

This will still rocket in price and will sell for $500 plus in a years time easy.

so my advice is don't sell it enjoy it!! but down the line you will be in the $$$$$$£££££££

 

[Vaako]

do you guys think sideshow will get some more pieces afterwards? i'm waitlisted at 17.07.30 and don't have good hopes :-(

You may have a chance it's only 3 minutes away from the time people are getting converted now.

Good luck and hope you get one.

 

[Vaako]

i really hope i'll get lucky and my waitlist converts, even my usual hong kong seller is asking me 550 dollar shipped for this figure

Ouch, that's pricey!

But I guess, this is the grail of all Preds....

___k sake! I was only joking when I said it but sure enough my card declined! WHY??!!! Aren't they looking at my transaction history?? Sideshow would be there just recently for Sarah Connor and they didn't question it then! I was going to ring VISA today but looks like I most certainly have to now anyway. This is a pain in the arse.

Edit - OK just rang VISA and they say my card is fine and no attempt was even made by Sideshow. WTH?

*crickets*...everyones asleep/away from computer then. Well whenever people are up I'd like to know if this has happened to anyone else who had a waitlist conversion. My card initially declined for the T-800 aswell come to think of it and as it turned out that situation would have resolved on its own, can't recall the exact explanation the girl on the phone gave but there was really no problem. I wonder if this is the same thing after happening again. Difference is this time I got an email from a 'Jeff Dean' about it, whereas there was no email about the T-800.

Anyway I emailed them back to tell them to rerun my card on file..its just strange considering VISA told me SS didn't try to run it in the first place.

Sometimes I wonder what kind of games they are playing.
