And the other two will be the Dinosoria dio.

Guess we'll have to wait till Halloween for the priest.

Will there definitely be an exclusive for the Dinosoria? I'd imagine it will just one version.

 

[lcummins]

Yeah, so true man. I'm glad I don't collect that line or I'd get a heart attack. Did anyone on here actually get the SSE Frankie/Wofman (and not the waitlist I mean)?

Yeah, a few of us got it.

Yes. So one or the other of the T-rex or Triceratops or both.

Sideshow’s signature exclusive versions will be accompanied by miniature skull collectibles of the dominant or featured species.

 

[UTtoyfan]

Sweet! Glad some freaks got it at least.

Yep, like IB quoted, skull(s).

Gotta be, Julie Adams played the Creature's desire, Kay Lawrence in the film.

 

[ZombieReign]

cool .. I tell ya - they need to beef up the audio on those clips .. some of them are a PITA to understand

 

[abadguy]

Army of Darkness contest has ended. (crosses fingers)

I kinda LIKE the scratchy audio, ya know, 'wait, what did he say?!' Gives SSC some plausible deniability.

 

[ZombieReign]

yeah .. but at least make the key words somewhat understandable ... It might have been my PC, but the one with Criswell having the fog blower in his face was nearly impossible for me to make out ... Overall, though, I love these .. Shame we only get one more...

 

[thenammagazine]

Wow, words cannot describe how upset (or angry) I am right now. I waited for the SSE Dio for eighteen hours yesterday and it went up one hour after I went to bed.

I'm on the waitlist now, but have absolutely no hope that the thing will convert. I was loving Sideshow too much and now they have broken my heart. This was seriously the only piece I was looking forward to during Spooktacular, so I will be bowing out now. I cannot justify wasting this much time looking forward to the piece, and having ripped from me. I mean I really did cry right here people!

Of course if anyone snagged one, you know I still want it right? I may not be back here for a while, and depending on how things go, I may have to cancel all of my preorders with Sideshow. Sorry, you knew it was coming, my anger that is. And like mentioned above over half will be on ebay or in the sale forum here within a week, and we all know what thats about. Anyone count how many times I typed SSE Dio in the chat yesteday?

My heart is broken,
And I apologize for the rant,
Thank you all for the fun I've had this year,

Andrew

Hey fury, I can say that most won't end up on ebaY. Most went to us drooling zombified freaks still awake at the wee hours of the morning. Several Wait Listed freaks were also confirmed when Chris rose from his slumber. So while a few might make the big trip to ripoffsville, most are in the warm hands of fellow freaks.

50 was way too small of an edition for the SSE dio. With something at limited, they really need to either have a PPO or at least a stated time it would go up. Its one thing for contests to go up at random times during the night, but new LIMITED products? That is harsh.

 

[EVILFACE]

that is what they have always done with the low ES SSE products.

What, PPO or up at random time after midnight?
Just curious.

"Sleep is for the weak." And still, even for those who did catch some zzzzzzzz's, when they were up even until 5am PST, Chris was confirming wait list orders.

I missed it too, and when I logged on the sight this morning my first reaction was a laugh --- kudos for Sideshow, sleep is for the weak! I think it was a good idea to spring this one like this, you gotta want it.

Hey I was in before 5am PST... mine didn't convert!

Ballsy too. They already took into consideration the hater posts.
