1/6 Hot Toys -- Guardians of the Galaxy - Groot & Rocket

Seems to me that sideshow doesn't have a clear cut or detailed enough policy on different shipping circumstances and the employees are left to use their best judgment on each circumstance.

Personally, I do care - I don't place pre-orders with NRDs to get stuff AFTER everyone else.

I don't mind if 50% ship from SS on a Friday and 50% ship on the following Monday, but weeks apart is ridiculous.

I get that the dock delays or even HT supply chain may be a factor, but I wish they'd stick to the policy they outlined the last tine I called about this issue.

And no, other vendors do get them before SS ships to all their customers.

BBTS was not only selling the Cap 2-pack weeks before mine shipped, but SS was doing contest giveaways (!!) for them before mine shipped - and i called asking them to charge the final flexpay as soon as I heard they were shipping - but they still wouldn't ship - makes no sense.

Phone CS says they do have a policy, although it's not the one they're using on this item.

I've waited a year, another week or four doesn't concern me. Seems crazy to get upset about, IMO.

Picture request: Does somebody have pictures of all 4 released Guardians in a Detolf? I fear that all 5 will look a little too crowded...

Here you go. I agree that the whole team will probably look a bit too cramped.

If/when Drax gets released I think I'm going to have to split up the team with Rocket/Groot on one shelf and Star Lord, Gamora & Drax on the other.

 

[Invictus Sol]

That looks great, FMH.

That looks great, FMH.

Thanks!

Kind of funny that they even gave Groot a stand. Word of warning, there is a little branch sticking out of his hip. Be careful if you use the base and clip holder around his waist to hold him up. They put that damn little branch right where you would likely put the black clip and you might break it off.

Yeah like WTH is the pics

Thanks for the pictures FullMetalHippie. I wish I knew where to find a Gamora for a reasonable price though. I'll probably have to wait for the GotG2 version.

That's interesting. My buddy who ordered the exclusive was told his order shipped on Friday, so he's supposed to have it this week.
