1/6 Hot Toys - MMS357 - Avengers: AoU - Scarlet Witch (New Avengers Ver.) Figure

[DasMuse]

Ordering from sideshow has always been an issue for me since I'm North of the border, but I decided to try one of those package-holding facilities in Buffalo, NY and got on the waitlist for this. Holy ****, huge price difference. If all goes well and I'm converted from waitlist, I may just do this in the future for all my Hot Toys. Do the 2-hour drive to Buffalo twice a year, pick my Hot Toys up in batches, save about $80 per figure, AND get reward points.

*prays to the collectibles gods*

I live in Buffalo. If I can do anything to help out, let me know.

It has been announced that there are 500 sets available in Hong Kong for non HT VIP members (regular joes) and the preorder starts later than the VIP members. So quantities are limited in HK as well...

just got on the waitlist an hour ago what are my chances?

Consider the fact that they just had a significant series of conversions started yesterday, I think the conversions maybe done for now? It could change if the CW SW opens for PO sooner rather than later and people drop this in favor of the CW version...who knows?

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind!

Either version looks good. The CW SW has the long jacket I noticed.

Once full payments are called in people will cancel or get nsf charged. So there's some. Plus, there's people that got converted on the waitlist that will either cancel (not expected it to convert excuses) or also have their NRDs not go through due to nsf (NRD is non refundable deposit and nsf is insufficient funds or card declined)

So there will be more conversion in the next 48 hours. I'm sure there are those that will assume it's increased production but it's not. As I said, it's flaked out buyers.

 

[Starfleet Captain]

Wow, who knew HT made this and the BV Cap THIS exclusive? I think SSC maybe getting 1,000 each? Just guessing...

Are we getting the Cosbabies? The BvS ones never went up for pre-order but how about these CW ones?

I think the BvsS will be up first but idk

I am sorry, but HT's MMS numbering is wacked, this one is 357, but XLVI is 353?

Does anybody know the sequencing anymore? I am so confused...

I think they number them by production but release them differently, so some figures that are announced might skip a few numbers, but Idk for sure

 

[Starfleet Captain]

Please note again that this is NOT the outfit Scarlet Witch wears in Captain America: Civil War!!!!

She only wears this outfit in her final scene in Avengers: Age of Ultron! For like 7 seconds on film!

This is a movie promotion release (limited quantity) and not a regular release. This went on PO on 4/15/16 and it is currently on wait list.

She wears a different outfit in Civil War and that is a regular release, but it is not open to preorder yet!

Why is is messed up?

The figures each get an mms number when they are first started and approved, long before they are shown to the public, and not every figure takes the same amount of time in the production and approval process (both in house and at the licensor)

The sequence is the same as it's ever been. They don't come out in mms numerical sequence. They have not in a long time. If ever.

The mms numbers are essentially irrelevant. Its an in house designation that for some reason has become something collectors pay attention to.

This photo made me jump on the WL... I have a feeling this one is going to ship very soon and i'm impatient, I don't want to wait for CW Wanda

I'll buy her though too...

Hopefully I convert.

I was hoping to reconcile the recent releases and find out the order of MMS sequencing, that's all...I knew they release for PO out of MMS number sequences.

353 - XLVI
354 - ???
355 - ???
356 - ???
357 - Scarlet Witch (New Avengers)
