To UK collectors with pre-orders for this at Modelzone, websites gone, they are officially in administration. Hope they get past this, I got loki and two VII's on pre-order. Its going to be a pain to find them if they cancel all pre-orders :(

For more bad news, Amerang have also gone into administration and they are the sole supplier for Hot Toys in the UK. i think OSB is the only company who doesn't use them for Hot Toys as they source from China directly. Sucks as i have ASM, and some IM3 stuff on p/order with other retailers, although a refund for the IM3 stuff wouldn't be too bad i'd hate to miss out on ASM
 
At the moment might just have to wait and see, administration does not always mean the company will go under, they might get past it and continue trading. My worry is the pre-orders will be cancelled as they were for HMV. Modelzone have the same administrators as HMV did

That is a big concern for all us UK collectors that rely on pre-orders from UK sites. Still early days tho

It is still early days, but I'm worried that now Amerang is in administration too, Modelzone will have no choice but to cancel pre-orders. If this does happen then theres nowhere in the UK to get a Mark VII.

Did you order from Modelzone too?

Yes I ordered from modelzone, afaik Amerang owner are part of the same group as modelzone
 
I have been looking all over in the US online for one and no one is selling Mark VII

You must not be looking hard enough, start searching mom and pop toy stores in new york, los angeles, dallas, that have online websites and sell hot toys, they might not have preorders but even then they get one or two extras, since they are no sideshowtoy that puts you on waitlist, send them an email and keep checking for the release to let you know if they have them or not. Plus they are up by at least 20.00usd of retail price.

When I open up my browser I have like 20 retailers with Mk VII status to check if date or stock changes. Asian websites are popular on this, they get cancelled orders and then miraculously show stock a couple of days later, if you don't catch it quick it will sell out again.

Has anyone heard back regarding their early charge on this figure? I emailed them back last night but I was expecting to hear about it from Dawn today but no email yet.
 
Got my UPS notice. Even with a last minute pack-out request, it seems like my early flex-pay will ship out today. That means it will be a good day at work tomorrow...

What time did you email Dawn yesterday?

I sent my request at 5:43pm PST.

Then i called this morning to request the pack-out and the rep had to put me on hold so they could get it back from shipping. When she came back the woman mentioned it should still ship by the end of the week, and sure enough, I got my ship notification at 4:49pm PST.
 
To all UK collectors:
If you guys don't mind ordering in the netherlands you could also habe a look at

www.actionfiguren-shop.com

It's in German, but they seem to be not known for selling Hot Toys figures too much, but they are reliable.

So they have a lot of a bit older figures in stock for a long time...



When my seller in Germany gets his figures he often has some spare figures even if it was pre sold out.
You can have a look at

www.incredible-figures.de

Also check

www.space-figuren.de

They have a waitlist, but pergaps you have luck there...

Sorry for you guys! :(
