I'm curious to hear when the superior. . .er, I mean, standard version of the figure starts getting shipped.

Same post he said something like, sadly no standards yet.
Sadly this isn't surprising. There are many in this world with no standards.
This is where the cloak is included with all sculpted hair.

Many rooted hair versions are popping up on Ebay. It's impossible to tell if any of them are reliable.
I see a lot of those are in China. I know from one of the Transformers forums that lots of Chinese outfits set up eBay accounts and start out relatively legit, building up a bit of positive feedback. But at some point they shut down and leave a lot of collectors out to dry. Then they do it again under a new name. Dry, rinse, repeat. Though you are covered under buyer protections from this, it's still annoying. Something to consider if there are guys without really extensive feedback and a positive reputation. Here is the thread I'm referencing:

I limit any E-bay orders to China to 100$ if that.
Primarily for 1/6 accessories. I've had some sterling service; even better communication than from some U.S. sellers, but it's just too much hassle to try to deal with a country that far away where a seller can just vanish. One guy tho I threatened to write to the Chinese embassy here over a switched 35$ head sculpt
. Told him he was shaming his country etc. Got my money back.

Still waiting for mine from TNS. Disappointed that the ranger cloak will have to be purchased (? assuming so) separately in for an order from other than the InArt store. I want to do some photo shoots with him wearing that cloak. But I’m sure it will become available eventually.

What's the story with companies pulling fast ones, or straight up screwing over buyers lately? This sneaky business, Mondo's monumental DHL customs screw-up. What the actual f u c k ?
Am I pissed? Yeah. It's disrepectful, shady and unprofessional.
I can't speak for anyone else, but I'm losing faith across the board. Forgive me, but I'm in a mood.

Going to start selling custom cloaks for 100$, like ppl did with these wonky capes and gonna pay my preoders with that coin. 
This was never promised when ordered so I'm not too fussed about it. Would never cover up the figure like that other than for a photo or two.
Not only will I cover Aragorn in that cloak, I will pose him kneeling so he'll look like a big gray rock on my shelf. But I alone will know the wonderful details within, unseen.
I hope Joost is taking notes about how offering up the possibility of, say, a 4th head, will end up.
No, only ever as part of the update, where they indicated it would be exclusive.
As long as we get the head or heads we paid for, all is good. Sometimes one head is good enough.
