Re: Hot Toys -MMS496- Episode II: AOTC - Count Dooku Collectible Figure

I ended up pulling the trigger and bought from toyswonderland for $320 shipped to California. I didn?t want to risk not getting my waitlist converted.....little more then I wanted to pay but better then the prices it will go to later on if they are not restocked.

It's not terrible considering if you buy from eBay or many other places you'll get charged sales tax to add to that.

I did the same for just about that price too after shipping and taxes. I can't imagine them doing another Dooku and he was a pretty interesting character. Plus I'm a big Lee fan and it looks fantastic.

I?m a fan of lee too so that?s why I just said screw it and bought it. Was really holding out for a waitlist convert but who knows if it would have as I was put on a few weeks after it waitlisted so I?m probably not high on the list. And his look is the same in clone wars and since they are going the realism side for those I can?t see them doing a ?clone wars? variant.

The Count has arrived. Quite an imposing figure, as others have mentioned.

Re: Hot Toys -MMS496- Episode II: AOTC - Count Dooku Collectible Figure

I thought you were referring to him as the Count, because Lee was famous for his role as Dracula...
[emoji2359] How the heck did it take me this long to make that connection?
[emoji848]Now I am wondering if the character was simply Darth Tyranus, and he requested his character be titled Count, possibly even wanted his name to sound similar to Dracula. So they said Count Dooku...

Just got him from toys wonderland in Hong Kong and it didn?t come with a shipper box. I never bought the non US release of a figure so I assume the China releases don?t come with shippers? Not a big deal just threw me off but still had the clear plastic around the figure box
 
Re: Hot Toys -MMS496- Episode II: AOTC - Count Dooku Collectible Figure

As far as I know, shipper box is only available for figures distributed by Sideshow (North America and Europe).

Had the same thing with ToysBuyingAgent. It surprised me as well.

I got a brown shipper with my DX16 Maul that I bought from a HK seller. Not sure if DX get special treatment in HK though.
 
Re: Hot Toys -MMS496- Episode II: AOTC - Count Dooku Collectible Figure

Usually figures that come
From sellers in HK since they buy them from Secret Base don?t come with a brown shipper
 
Re: Hot Toys -MMS496- Episode II: AOTC - Count Dooku Collectible Figure

Iron Man/diecast figures get shipper boxes in HK, but yeah, everything else is just the plastic wrap around the art box.

edit, Not sure about DX releases.

The one figure I ordered from them did, but they destroyed it by putting orange tape all over the box and shipped it like that. It also smelled awful so I tossed it.

Yes for me too it had orange tape all over the box and smelled really weird. It wasn?t a shipper for dooku I got it was just a generic shipper so maybe buying in HK the shippers they use are blank or toys wonderland got ahold of genric looking shippers.
