Call them, Craig. I think that might get you further.No email reply from SS. Just about over them.

So......after talking on chat with customer service.
It appears they are giving me the Phasma PREMIUM format figure
Not yet release. But I think I can wait
Nice! Glad that worked out.
You replied to neb saying by their logic they would never want a stormtrooper if they don't want phasma, but they are completely different. Stormtroopers are iconic and perfectly represent the empire/FO. However phasma is underused and underdeveloped as a character so of course you could want one and not the other.
Take off the the rose tinted glasses. Stormtroopers are basically cannon fodder . They just look cool but get their asses kicked in every combat they are in. You buy white colored stormtroopers but draw the line at buying a chrome stormtrooper that has more lines screentime. As far as iconic Phasma will be iconic eventually just like Fett and other figures who had a few seconds of screentime in the original trilogy.
I just watched A new hope and the"battle" between Vader and Obi Wan was really mediocre! They just stood there just doing some slow thrusting with their light sabers in a very underwhelming fight. Compare the Maul fight at the end of TPM with that. Amazing the rose tinted glasses wearers overlook the faults of the original trilogy while bashing the new movies for any perceived faults.

But 3 months?

I just noticed your post since I was trying to avoid spoilers, so you won a figure and Sideshow hasn't contacted you in 3 weeks?
Not unheard of, I won Jason and Freddy figures in 2005 and they didn't contact me either, I contacted them 6 weeks later to find out they had gave away one of my prizes to someone else. They offered to replace it with something else, and I got a long sold out figure I really wanted instead. They will come through eventually. I guess they get busy with other things and it found it's way to the bottom of the pile, they're only human and mistakes happen. Glad to hear it worked out for you in the end, congrats!

3 months. But it’s the Premium, and I was under the impression it was the 1/6 scale.
So win
They forgot to send out a prize for me as well, they ended up sending me something different when they realized they forgot and they were already sold out of what I originally won

Nobody had done what a new hope did before a new hope. Most of us wouldnt be in this forum (including all tireless episode 8 dramaqueens and prequel trilogy apologists) wouldnt be here if it wasnt for that old, shoe string budgeted, hokey ass movie that was Star Wars (episode 4). Most of us werent even around to be blown away by that movie in theaters, so have some damn respect. That **** is legendary and will transcend for many more decades.

Amazing what difference a few decades of evolving film and cinematrography and an actual budget can do. Everybody knows a lot of the action sequences in older films are hokey as ****. Thats how it was back then. Everything is fast and colofrul and fluid now and thats fine. A New Hope gets special treatment because its the OG star wars movie.
