That's why I check out of threads during Pt3... no new information, just a lot of rattling around and back and forth with no actual new information to share. The only chance we might get some kind of new information is if we see an updated proto at SDCC, but even then it's hard to tell if it's actually new or just different lighting
So with that being said I'll see you guys in July... or maybe December when I check in to see how far into 2015 this figure's been delayed
Right. Remember those stages of the Hot Toys preview to ownership life cycle?
1) Promo/pre-order pics come out, and everyone freaks at how awesome it is, and how glad they are that it will be made
2) Folks start nit-picking flaws, and several develop a view that the figure actually sucks
3) Much debate ensues for months leading to release
4) First production pics come out of unfutzed figure in terrible lighting, everyone freaks out, threatens to cancel, etc.
5) More in-hand pics are released; feelings are mixed
6) Arrives at owner's house, most are pleased
7) Time passes, dissatisfaction over dated product grows, customs are created, demands for revisiting figure is made, etc.
8) Wash, rinse, repeat
