Hot Toys Sandtrooper and Dewback 1/6

I did just the trooper as well. Final flex just got bumped to February, so not as soon as I would like.

Was it from Sideshow? I got the January email but haven't received anything about the payment being bumped to February yet

Yes, from SS. Email was Thursday.

Ok, I guess I'll get mine notice here soon then. I wish they would let us pay off the final payment and then pay for the shipping when it releases. If it gets pushed back much further, it will start to interfere with my next collectible I have on flex payment

Well, you could just set aside the money and not spend it on anything else until then.

Or, you could use the SS “Payment option” for “Pay remaining balance” to make the final payment now. They’ll charge you your last payment minus shipping and tax.

I just used that option to pay off my Dewie. They charged the usual monthly payment but not the shipping or tax. See the pop up I got when I hit that “Pay remaining balance” tab if you don’t believe me.

I am seriously considering cancelling this pre-order. I absolutely love the Sandtrooper/Dewback combination, but this thing is going to take up so much space. Space that I don't even have...

What to do, what to do...

Me too. I’m going to wait for final product pics. I want it but it’s going to be such a space killer. If I love the in hand videos I’ll keep it. Otherwise, adios. I can get my nrd back because it’s so overdue. Mine is paid off too, so I can get a refund. This might be another major discount set because of the heavy price tag. Decisions…

How late is this?

How late is this?

They’re about to be past the six month window.

 

[slynger]

I think they’ll do really good on this one.

I was seriously considering canceling my AT-RT set, but now I’m so glad I didn’t. I understand a creature is a bit different, but it’ll work out good.

Well they did cover their ass by saying Dec 2024 end date. They give themselves 6 month windows now.

Hopefully HT learned with the terrible paint apps and QC on the Blurrg creature. That looked like a $20 rotocast from Kmart with its overall shiny plasticky look, simplistic paint and mold seam lines.

That's weird. When I called their customer service and spoke to a representative, she told me I couldn't do that. I guess either she had no clue or lied to me.

SSC customer service has told me all kinds of things. I find them to be inconsistent when relaying information.

I always go by the end date with their range. It keeps me from being disappointed (and tends to be the more realistic date anyway).

I am assuming they are working out some production/packaging/QC issues, and if that is the case, I would rather them take the extra time.
