It's my morning ritual...get up, check email on phone for any "shipping soon" notices. I was surprised last week with one for Team Suit Stark, but still wait for one for IG and Cap... Those have been out in HK for a very long time. I am sure they're stuck on a cargo ship off the coast, so they'll get to me eventually...

Could be but i doubt it. hardly get spam in that specific mailbox.

Yes, check your spam filters, if not, let them know.

 

[Tee-Kay]

Nothing in the spam filter. informed them i didn't get an email but only noticed the invoice as i was checking my Paypal account today. Not too worried as i guess the would have sent a reminder had i not paid today. Crosing fingers they held my IG and not put it back on the shelves.

Where have you been ordering from in Toronto? Are you paying a premium to get it through the store?

I have been ordering from Toy2.net. They are located in Markham so only about a 30-40 minute drive for me to save on the shipping. The figures retail for less than purchasing directly on Sideshow by $5 - $10 USD on average. Always cheaper. The only catch is you have to pay GST.

I have done the math and i save a considerable amount of money picking these up directly from them and paying Canadian taxes. Versus through Sideshow, i pay more in USD. I pay another $30 - $40 USD in shipping and on top of it, i get nailed with anothwr $60 CAD or more in border taxes/duties which always average to more than GST.

Toy2.net has great customer service. I have bought well over 15 Hot Toys from them and the owner Eric is a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend them.

Nothing for me either, and I PO'd way back with Mando V1.

 

[THX138]

I joined the waitlist as soon as it turned and was able to pay......just waiting for the final payment notice. Looking forward to this one.

My twin brother PO’ed this day one and nothing still.
It’s beginning to be annoying.

Yeah Jive Turkey The NachoMan is right about Toy2.net for decent prices in CDN currency. I have been dealing with Eric and Carman for years now. He will usually knock off $5 to $10 USD approximately (as stated by Nacho), but as the price increase he will take off more. He took $15 USD off the Sideshow price for the Scout Trooper and Bike. It helps tremendously, especially when you can pick it up and save off shipping. Also, they do take in to account the trading value of the Canadian currency to American, so when the CDN dollar is up, take advantage as you will save more.

 

[DJ_NachoMan]

Got mine today. These two shots are right out if the box. AMAZING figure!!!! Highly recommended!

 

[Mike86]

I feel like this figure is going to disappear fast and shoot way up in price.
