Hot Toys – MMS172 - Avengers: Hawkeye

Nope, he's too badass to be boring. A great figure.

On his page it says "Est. Ship Date: September 2012" but sadly this has just not been updated in a while.

I had an email from SSC on the 31/08/12 saying that final Flex payments would be on the 15 of October as final payments were timed to coincide with arrival of stock of said item into their warehouses. So my final payment is due on the 15th of October because that's when they will have stock in. Also, it seems that SSC also send out the Flex orders first (I could be wrong there, but that's how the general reaction seems to show it, it's how it seemed to happen with my 2 SUPERMAN and my '89 BATMAN and JOKER figures) so those of whom placed Flex POs as soon as he went up should be amongst the first out.

I am really glad that I PO'ed him. He is a smart and understated figure without all the flash-bang hi-tech of the IRON MAN range or the colourful propaganda iconography of Cap:A.

Spoke to SS CS yesterday. They say it's still September but no idea on when. That leads me to believe October.

We have not gotten any info out of Hong Kong yet so no doubt he is not comming in September.

I just had this back from SSC, about 2 minutes ago regarding HE....

We did receive notice that these would be arriving in our warehouse within 30 days. Your item is scheduled to process on Oct 15th.

...so, most likely not this month.

This is actually better for me since I ended up getting Fury from them and it's arriving soon. I can wait til next month.

Nope. This month is almost over and I've been checking the international sellers on eBay for him too. So far, nada.

is it wrong for me to think that its getting a little ridiculous that a company of hot toys caliber has way to many late releases. they have been in the business for over 10 years. Im not an impatient collector, but sometimes figures get pushed back and released the same time as other figures. Sometimes ill have 2 to 3 figs on one credit card bill. I even had to cancel things on numerous situations, and completely missed out on some things

 

[Ryno]

This is really cool, I am a big fan of Hawkeye.

i agree they might as well put coming later, or coming in a long long time.

Let's hope they'll improve upon this in the future. I'm impatient too.

Yay! I can't wait! I ordered it from CSC so... I hope I see it. lol

 

[zipflint]

Hey dude, didn't you say you lived sorta close by their physical shop? Maybe they've closed up shop. Maybe they really HAVE cut'n run, cashing in on all the pre-orders with no intention of fulfilling them.

Hell this wouldn't be the first time this sorta thing has happened to me. I ordered a 60-inch Pioneer Kuro (the last/best plasma they made) and the company went t|ts up in the middle of fulfilling orders. Bankrupt.

The owner was very up front about the whole thing but it took MONTHS of back and forth between me, him, PayPal, and my credit card company to FINALLY get the funds back. And this guy wasn't even fighting or being non-communicative.

$h|+ I'm getting nervous....where's my damn Ativan.....

October is just a little more than a week away. And so far, no in stock listings on eBay either.

Nothing out of HK

 

[Centurion]

Nothing out of HK

So we can expect longer delays.

 

[Viking Spawn]

Nothing out of HK

Nope. And those sellers are the first to have them.

 

[KillKen]

Yep I guess you can count Hawkeye as the only Avenger coming out this year.

Let's hope Cap and Widow still make it. But I doubt it.
