From Sideshow, 2 more weeks.

and hopefully another week or two from online retailers


btw: anyone who shopped at alteregocomics before, how long do they take after sideshow starts shipping?

Week-ish . If you want it Sideshow-quick but retailer cheap, CSC is the way to go. They are like 40 miles from Sideshow so they are usually only a day behind is all.

I have seen every pic and video reviews posted here (and there) and the pants look and fit really awful and crappy .. and this is the only weak point I can see (but the most anoying certainly)

Seriously, the pants of the Enterbay BL ETD B version look far better


Anyways, my HT BL with extra body (342$ shipping included) has arrived to Spain, and probably will arrives at home tomorrow

yeah i live kinda next to csc, thats where i got my MK IV. It sucks that I have to pay for tax & shipping, The other choice was to drive there but thats atlease $10 of gas heading to anahiem and back... doesnt cancel out the taxes -_-.....so this time i thought i'd try alterego.

AE = my peoples! I've driven down to CSC before, but only when AE is sold out. However for this Fig I did order the Exclusive so that binds me to one!

Re: Hot Toys's DX04 - Enter the Dragon: Bruce Lee 1/6th scale Collectible Figure

AE is my go-to store if I'm not buying an exclusive... and as was said you will typically get your stuff a week or two behind Sideshow. So not bad considering you save 10%

My main HT dealer is a Bangkok guy, I got my DX01 Joker from him and the heartbreaking rubber deteriorating DX02

However I had preordered and payed him full for a DX04 Bruce Lee around September of last year. I didnt know there was a Sideshow Exclusive body available then.

My friend, a garments dealer and fellow collector went to Bangkok on the 1st for buying his supply and came back on the 4th night. The figure reached the Thai dealer 4th morning and he included the Exclusive body because I had paid full for so long and as a token for my disappointment on getting a messed up Batman.

So the total figure + extra body + shipping cost me $180 approx when converted from INR to USD!

Axecutioner18, any chance of helping me getting in touch with your figure guy and shops in Bangkok ? I will be in BKK on the 21st this month...

 

[axecutioner18]

Re: Hot Toys's DX04 - Enter the Dragon: Bruce Lee 1/6th scale Collectible Figure

I will try friend, but as my friend said, that fellow only had 3 of them and I got one, he took one for himself and sold another to some other thai fellow. And since he's not a dealer, rather a collector who orders in bulk I cant promise that he can get more. Also I personally dunno the guy, my garment dealer friend does. I gotta ask him.

As for shops in Bangkok,as much as I know they arent that good. They sometimes keep the odd Hot Toy but are priced exorbitantly. Ill get back from my friend and try to help you with the location of his shop as personally Ive never gone to Bangkok to get the stuff. My friend buys it off and gets his with his clothes and personal stuff. Ill get back with as much information as I will be divulged and PM you the details ASAP! ok?

Dear Axecutioner18, first of all please excuse me for being so forward on the forum about asking you this favour as I thought after posting it might be putting you on the spot here which was not my intention at all

Do not worry, I do not expect for you to pull any miracles, and thank you for warning me about the higher prices in Bangkok/Thailand (compared to the prices in Hong Kong ? As I will be in HK before going to Thailand, and also return to HK after my stay in Thailand) and dodgy HT (and other) products.

I only want to see if there is a possibility to get this as an original figure for a good price (compared to HK) - and I have not yet seen this figure in hand (which I need to before buying it, but I will do that next week when I am in HK). So please take my inquiry very lightly

By the way, does your garment friend have a shop to display his garments as I am looking for a few tailors in BKK and Koh Samui.

Re: Hot Toys's DX04 - Enter the Dragon: Bruce Lee 1/6th scale Collectible Figure

Actually I understand your post now - concerning the great deal you got - as your guy did you a more of a personal favour for you, and because it was a pre-order.

Congratulations!! Two more weeks for me hopefully. You know that once you get it before almost everyone else here, it is mandatory to post pics to help with the wait. Just kidding. But I will surely appreciate it.

No problem GungFu I wasnt in a spot its just that as much as Id like to help you Im not sure any information I can provide will be much useful. Also like I said the garments dealer is from India (Im from India) garments dealers go to Bangkok once a month to buy LOTS for cheap and sell them here. And its not premium clothing stuff (most of it is black t-shirt with band/cartoon/movie pictures on them) stuff popular with the young crowd etc. This friend collects HT Predators and this is his website https://www.f-bloc.com/ You can see his clothes and figures as its displayed in his shop, go to 'enter site', then 'gallery' and click on the left and right buttons which will come up to navigate

However when I call him my 'friend', he more an acquaintance as TILL NOW Ive never met/seen/talked to the Thai collector fellow. My 'friend' acts as a go between. So me getting detailed information is a little unlikely. Also the Thai fellow has a contact in Toy Hunters and got it from there. So Im sure if you are going to HK it will be better for you to get the item straight from the source itself

Hey Id love to do it, will surely have them with a detailed review by tomorrow or so. The only thing I wanted to know was that whenever I have posted pics in the past as attachments they ended up as little thumbnails in the bottom which become bigger when clicked. How do you post the pics straight in normal size and one after another like the others did of their figure?
