Paitient Zero Premium Format!?!?!?!?!?

[DarkArtist81]

Trust me... as someone who can list "arguing with Mesa" as an artform. There can be no impasse, no matter what you do. It's like Vietnam, a war you can't win.

Seriously though, that was kinda a ^^^^ move to do the "ha ha ha...I'm cooler than you cause I got one." deal... that really sucks.

I totally forgot about the newsletter, so I am glad I wasn't here. Besides, it is just a hand anyway, not that big a deal to me.

 

[El Roranous]

Crap, slept through the newsletter and misssed out on the exclusive

Sorry King! I missed out too. I was chilling out with the GF though. I rarely sit by the computer anymore for the newsletter.

Same here... I was playing a game and just now remembered.

But it's ordered anyway, and a WL reservation just in case. Glad I wasn't here, I would have just gotten pissed off.

Same here. I am actually glad I wasn't around because I probably would have been pissed as well and it would have ruined my night.

As said as it is to admit. It did mine for the most part. If it wasn't for playing LOTR with Kain it would have. I honestly can't put into words my disappointment with SS and with some of the folks here.

Yeah, they should have had a proper Pre order on this one. If I would have known, I would have been all over it. I hate it when they surprise you with an important preorder like that.

And Mesa being a bastard about it...well... he IS Mesa afterall.

 

[thenammagazine]

WOW! Seems like most of The Dead fans lost out on the Ex (myself included). The Ex run was also a surprise. I had thought they would've done 300 to match the original PZ's run. Sadly that wasn't the case. Bummer...

sorry to disappoint. If any consolation, I wasn't even planning on ordering it. Probably just flip it and spend the $ at titty bars in Vegas anyway.

Totally! If I had an idea in hell it would have been that low I would have been way more prepared. If they where going to have only 100 it should have been a PPO honestly. Just a botched play really on SS part.

You aren't disappointing. I fully expect you to act like this.

See... now that just aggravates me. I understand it works for you and all, but with something this rare and hard to get... and to say that in a group of collectors that really love that line... That is a HUGE ****** move.

All 100 of these should be in the hands of actual collectors, not creeps who flip them for extra cash and could give a crap about their artistry.

You really like to push peoples buttons, it must be great to be a douchbag.

 

[Mesa]

You guys can't think I'm being serious? I tried to let it go one or two pages ago, amicably. But keep throwing it out the insults and I'll bite.

 

[DarkArtist81]

I was just joking in my earlier post, honestly. Just a friendly jab.

But dude, you really do TRY to get people pissed at you though. And it works a little too well. And honestly, it's ok to be happy that you got one. But in a situation like this, where people had no way of getting one unless they got lucky... it's really unwise to behave the way you did about it.

 

[El Roranous]

This PF should have probably had a "To be determined" ES. I don't think Sideshow was thinking this one through properly unfortunately. Although, I think it's all hype right now. People will cancel come shipping time.

 

[nash]

I'd just like to say that Im glad i got my orders in for the Ex.

congrats to all who got one.

Now THAT is how it's done...

 

[dunedain]

How to save money on statues. Let the sideshow website be massive overloaded so you can't order The Patient Zero Exclusive. And I got up on 4 am in the morning for it.
Ohw well saved me a couple of hundred bucks again. Congrats on those who got him.

I understand Josh, completely. I've been left out of several pre-orders myself and was none too happy about it. But I didn't go on for pages and pages and cry about it.

I attempted to apologize for what I thought was at the time playful jabs, but looking back saw that it was a bit childish and those who were left out probably weren't too appreciative of my poor attempt at humor when it was mostly inappropriate. Like I said, got caught up in the moment. I stated as much, bad form on my part. But still, some can't seem to let the fact that they missed out on a limited pre-order go and want to take it out on someone.

Again, not happy anyone missed out on this. I had no idea that this was going to be this limited. Though not my fault that those that did miss it, missed it. If you need someone to vent against, I can take it.

Well one thing is for sure, I guarantee whomever the next DEAD PF is (I've got my fingers crossed for Subject 5, the only other 1/6 version I want in this format) the ES on the EX will be much higher. Just like PZ who saw a truly limited run of 300, the PF will be the only one that really runs at an EX ES of 100....good for collectors because everyone wants one, bad for collectors because the ES overall will continue to inflate. There is almost no win on these kind of things...
