Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[jedijim3002]

Very nice. Thanks for the shout out. Yup the medicom cloak is more accurate shape wise and size but I also like the SS because of the material and color. SS hood is way too big. It looks like a Prequel trilogy hood rather than an Original trilogy hood. I think they just used the same template from the other PT Jedi robes for his hood.

Medicoms hood size is smaller and much more accurate. The only down side is its a bit too dark in color and a bit too "fuzzy" like pilot fleece instead of a wool.

Great pics bro. You are truly dedicated to this project. I wish I had more spare time right now to futz mine and take decent pics but I've been working crazy hours these last two weeks.

Why in the hell did they remove the flexpay option for this figure? I was going to flex him and now I can't. Looks like I will loose my chance to own him.

I don't know why they do that. It's like they penalize people who come late to order.

The main reason they are doing it with HT Luke I can think of is the lukes are flying off the shelves and they know they are so they just want to make 1 transaction and get rid of the figure instead of somthing that takes months.

The hat is too big and it's the wrong color...can't SS do anything right?

I thought it was because it was on backorder...

Haaaaa!!! I love it! That sums this forum up nicely.

Try this:

1) Order the figure without Flexpay.
2) Immediately cancel the order.
3) Sideshow will automatically give you the option to convert it to a Flexpay upon cancellation.
4) Voila

Or maybe you might think about simply calling Sideshow on Wednesday and ask them to place a Flexpay order for you. It may be something as simple as an oversight on the part of the web team. Those guys have a lot to keep track of.

 

[gunm]

I don't think they allow flex pay on back orders.

 

[Rook]

That's possible. I haven't looked. Are they calling this a backorder? If so, then it makes more sense. Definitely not a malicious thing.

 

[gunm]

Yeah, it's on back order at the moment.

This is the reply i got when i asked why the TDKR Batman didn't have flex pay option:

There is no flexpay option for the item at this time because the schedules that we had to offer are now finishing up. The Batman figure is expected to arrive right after the first of the year and start shipping out.

 

[Fang]

But if you choose FlexPay now, you push your order back to a few months from now.
So does that mean they'll bring the FlexPay back once their January shipping of batman is done? It doesn't really make sense

I think they take the option away once it's in stock so they don't have to hold one for you while you slowly pay it off, or get half way through and cancel. They would rather just get the cash & send it out the door. Which is fair enough.

Just did the same. Snagged the Dewback for $209 along with it. Didn't plan on spending $500 tonight, but a pretty good deal.

Did you guys use a code? I see it still priced at $299.

Never mind...found it.

Same here. I NEVER intended to get this, but man oh man the price! Worked out to about $127 per figure plus you get the displays. If Luke was not there, then I would have gotten Jack the Joker. Oh well Jack, maybe next year because this will be my only 1/6th for this year!
