AE said they were planning on shipping sometime this week or next week..

I used them a couple of times but they ship just like sideshow, with the Hot toys shipper which I hate, that is a big turn off for collectors which is the only people who even buy these so this practice will cost them my business. Theres no reason to cheap out like this with expensive items like this, even toys R us ships with boxes

Can't wait for this figure, both sculpts look fantastic. CSC said they should have him within a couple of weeks. I'm glad I decided to pick up FA Cap a few weeks ago too. These 2 will look great together.

I mainly buy from AE and the always double box it. That's wierd how they don't do that for you.

Wow coat w/o the uniform inside makes the outfit look like the final battle flightsuit

this also solves the bulk problem

Thanks! With the uniform something just looked off, so I tried this and it just looks so much better.

I've heard a lot of people saying they had a pain trying to get his jacket and belt on, it took me about 2 min to get him to look like this, I don't see what all the fuss is about

Exactly...

I'm enjoying my red skull I just opened! Great hot toys figure rhe Hugo likeness is stellar and the skull head is mad cool...

The coat looks just retarded on him. Putting it in without the uniform under is the only way to go... I'm glad someone pointEd out its accurate to rhe end scene.

Glad you said that- coat looks oversized, poorly tailored, like really plastic dolly clothes! Maybe it's just me but I've not read much negative comments on the coat...

There's nothing really negative about the coat,
except for the fact that it's freakin hard to get on properly

Agreed its one of Hot Toys poorest tailoring jobs ever, but without the bulk of the uniform underneath its much better.

I picked up what appears to be the same uniform for my Red Skull but found that the black dye stained the body parts it touched and the neck of the placeholder head I was using. Did you have any problems with dye transferring off onto your hands or the figure?

I've rinsed it a few times in the wash using a delicates mesh laundry bag, but it still seems to be coming off on my hands and any figure rubber it comes in contact with (hands etc). I worried because I planned on using this look for the Hugo Weaving HS (like at the start of the movie) but I don't want to ruin it like I did with the Dominic Purcell placeholder.
