Nice pics El-Vi-Riachi! Great detail, it really shows what the figure would look like in hand.

What the **** is going on at Sideshow with this figure?

Maybe the same problem Big in Japan is having. Has anyone tried connecting them?

Got a feeling the Port of Long Beach contract negotiations have not had a significant impact on Big in Japan's shipments, tc.

 

[toycrypt]

I think it's time to contact them. Wish me luck.

Chatted with them and they said the 3-5 weeks email is a mistake. It's still charging this Friday.

Wow so this figure is shipping soon? I have very much been swayed by it, but it really isn't in my budget. Think this is quick to sell out from SS?

I doubt it

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Let's see them actually get it in stock before worrying about a sell out.

 

[bebe13junior]

Haha ok ok. Yeah I'm hoping maybe to sell a figure or two to budget this. I'm scaling back my buying and budgeted for certain releases and one potential release (1/4 Vader).

A bit of wishful thinking on my part, but maybe this will get the 30-percent off treatment like Igor.

Gonna be awhile? Have a Snickers!

 

[Invictus Sol]

Hmmm, it's been so long now that I'm kinda re-evaluating my pre-orders (mostly due to Star Wars...). Not sure I need this piece or not, anymore. Hopefully it ships soon and we can get more in-hand pics and impressions. Mine won't be shipping until July due to being on flex.

This guy is a menacing looking character ! Gonna be my Grail piece for sometime . Can't wait
