Just got my Qui-Gon Notice...

[Darth Sheba]

With Qui-Gon definitely coming next month, I think I'm okay. The safety valve is Mace; if he shows up this month and not next month, he'll have to go. Blah.

 

[JustinLuck]

I see this as Sideshow playing catch up. Think about it.

It was originally supposed to be the following:

Luke - March
Anakin - April
Obiwan - May
Kit - June
Han - July
Mace - August
Qui-Gon - September

Maybe I messed up the order, but it was something like this right? So really, we should be rejoicing that we are finally getting figures that have been long delayed.

Same here, looks like one of these guys will have to go... will have to pick up the slack somewhere down the road, too much stuff coming in at once between HT (Robo, Ed) Med (Sparrow, Rocketeer)... and SSC stuff.

Like Dusty said " You have to separate what you want from what you really want"

That was pretty much as I expected it too. I see all this as Sideshow playing catch-up and after this things will roll along smoothly.

 

[Darth Madden]

Cool.. so Jabba should be here by November right?

 

[JustinLuck]

If they stick to one per month:

Maul - October
Bib - November
Break to afford gifts - December
Jabba - January
Leia - February

Well, if you throw Sith Anakin into the mix you have an average of one per month since March. :chew

I just remember earlier this year, it felt like we were ordering a new figure every week or two. It only makes sense that a few months later, a new figure would be shipping every week or two. When the preorders were coming at us left and right, I only assumed that they would be shipping fairly close to one another. Now that is exactly what we are seeing.

Attention wallet: Brace for impact!!

Man! This is just getting crazy... thank goodness my CC upped my spending limit... oh waith, maybe that's not so good

 

[Vader AL]

Tom, did you see qui-gon at the con and if so, how did his hair look? Did it still have the George Washington hair look to it?

 

[Rocktonix]

If they email me to say Jabba's arriving in the next few weeks I am totally screwed.

 

[Darth Loki]

Don't listen to them SS. Keep 'em coming!

 

[JustinLuck]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[NSFolsom]

Good old Qui-Gon. Glad he's on his way as well.

Years from now, Star Wars collectors will be asking each other, "Where were you 3rd Quarter 2006?"

Hehe... No doubt, Tom!

I got my notice for the Exclusive as well.

Some pics from SDCC:

 

[Vader AL]

Thank you kind sir!

 

[tomandshell]

I double checked and didn't get any pictures of Qui-Gon when I was at SDCC, but Batty has us covered.

Qui-Gon is kind of in the middle for me, above Han but not up there with Obi-Wan. I don't think that the "Washington hair" is as bad as some are anticipating.

 

[Batty]

Thank you kind sir!

No problem. I didn't see him in person, but it doesn't look like any changes were made. He still looks great.

I think there were some close-up shots in the SS photo galleries.

When I saw those shots from SDCC I thought "wow the georgie rolls on his head are gone." Am I seeing selectively?

 

[Vader AL]

from the pics it looks like they comb the dinner rolls down some(could be the lighting though) so it looks good to me. looking forward for the excl. to arrive. sith anakin is waiting for me to open at home...arrived today. my first 12"...soon to be followed by quite a few. now if the ebay seller will reply to my emails regarding the luke 12" i won, i would feel better.
