Last night, I had the best experience of my looooooong collecting life.
I got home from work to find that there was a nice brown shipper from Sideshow containing my very first DX, Captain Jack Sparrow.
I have been tempted in the past by a Hot Toys DX but this was the first time that I went the whole way...I was glad that I saved my DX cherry as, to be honest, I really can't imagine there being a better figure.
It was....luxurious.
What an experience Hot Toys make unpacking this figure. Layer upon layer of awesomeness and the SMELL!!!!!!!! *drool* that new toy smell. Wonderful!
I spent hours putting this figure together, taking my time, hat on or off? coat on or off? which face? which hands? any weapons? there are sooooooooo many options and all of them brilliant.
It just almose decadent to be having this much excitement.
I known I'm late to the game but if anyone out there is on the fence about this figure can I exhort you get off the fence, get a hold of this figure and really, really enjoy the experience.
Flexpay makes it easier on the wallet too.
Sideshow and Hot Toys really are a marriage made in Collectors Heaven.
