HT Batman Begins - Batman/Wayne TF Ex.

Re: HT Batman Begins - Batman/Wayne TF Ex. SSC PREORDERS in AUGUST (or later)

Ok so i did more snooping around. As you all know i contacted 2 different people from SS via IM (see pic above) and was told that the figures were to be "General Release".

I was under the assumption that General Release meant that it would be available to other retailers that order directly from SS (E.g BBTS, AlterEgoComics, etc, etc)

I called SS directly to get a better understanding of what "General Release" meant and according to Karen she had no clue whatsoever what that meant. All she knows at this point is that it will be available during Spooktacular week.

I asked her if she had any idea wether or not SS would offer it to thier 3rd party retailers and again she does not know, since they still had yet to set up any meetings or contact any of thier 3rd party retailers about planned future announcments (Which they seem to do either monthly or when special event are to be announced)

This was confirmed by Josh from AlterEgo comics who says they have not heard of any changes that allow them to carry the figure, unless SS does indeed decide to change it. Just rememer its still early on in the game. Whos to say whan can happen in the next 90 days.


Hope that helps clears the confusion.

You forgot to ask the most important thing.... price

Re: HT Batman Begins - Batman/Wayne TF Ex. SSC PREORDERS in Spooktacular (10.24 - 10.

Haha no worries - I think the price goes up with the pre-order so not beforehand

Incorrect! In most cases, Sideshow provides a product preview gallery in the Production Blog which usually not only showcases the figure, but the price as well.

I heard it was shipping a week after the Pre-Order goes up. Better have those funds available.

Someone mentioned this being 400 bucks on SSC. I find that hard to believe. I imagine it won't be more than 250 dollars which is a bit above the price of a DX fig. This isn't a DX.

If it's $400 on SSC they can say bye bye to my business

yah its not going to be $400...$209-$249 at the very most. The Demon/Scarecrow was $299, by far the cheapest that was ever offered anywhere (until AmiAmi started selling them lower).

So now that there's a "definitive" date you guys are chickenlittling a price some idiot pulled out of his ass?

Re: HT Batman Begins - Batman/Wayne TF Ex. SSC PREORDERS in Spooktacular (10.24 - 10.

Haha I don't expect it to be anywhere near $400, saying IF it is, i'm not biting lol - i'm thinking $200-$220

Yes.
Actually we're just discussing price. I didn't now that was right out.
Someone said 400. I'm just replying by saying that that's ridiculous especially for a non-DX figure.
Don't get mad. Do some push ups there, Sgt. Slaughter.

I think Iron Man Secret Project would be a more than fair price comparison. Use that as a guide and you should be fine.

I'm so happy that this will be a widespread general release...hopefully all those scalpers get screwed and lose a ton of money

Is there a non-SDCC Secret Project? Because the only one I know of is the SDCC and that's like 3 yards plus.

Improvements from previous OC release

1-The cape has mat black velvet material and shiny from inside.
2- The cape pegs have a circular base under the cape and the peg comes out of it to go in the rubber suit the peg base in the rubber suit has a circular base under the rubber suit so the cape soes not fall out like the OC!!!! Great Job HT
