Picture of the exclusive mynock...

And whose condensed milk is Brock stealing in that picture!?

Milk of Magnesia...for all the stress on Friday!

*punchline cymbal DING!*

Thank you, I'll be here all night

I am starting to think that Sideshow should go back to making the Exclusive a secret.

I concur. Friday will be interesting.

 

[tomandshell]

I concur. Friday will be interesting.

Interesting in the sense that I will be staring at a blank screen for twenty minutes, and when the site actually loads, it will already be sold out. Is that the kind of interesting you mean?

 

[gonzo]

The site's already crashing!

Yeah...that is VERY interesting..by interesting I mean heart attack inducing. ...although I am 4/4 on ex., but that cant last forever.

 

[Wor-Gar]

As the Exclusives are now clearly becoming more elaborate, and highly sought after, I hope Sideshow starts to increase the edition size to compensate for the demand.

Kit exclusive sold-out in 30 mins, then 3 weeks and counting for the regular edition. That has to tell them something.

I am also 4/4 with the exclusives. I can pretty much guarantee you that 34 hours from now, I will be 4/5.

My only hope is a larger edition size to go with the extra cool (and extra publicized) exclusive on this one.

I would like to know how many of the ex. buyers are collectors or scalpers..not that it matters, its your choice to buy and keep or buy and sell..but I buy to keep. I think Kit ex selling in 30min. and reg. still for sale goes to show the amount of scalpers clamering to purchase and ex. for high resale value.Its a sellers martket...and as long as the demand is there so shale scalpers be..what a wonderful world.... I dont want to 4/5 on Friday, but I fear the time is near

 

[Wor-Gar]

If Sideshow continues to spotlight exclusives as "must haves", then its only fair to increase the edition size for them accordingly.

BTW, I buy to open, display and keep.

 

[Minimodel]

It s probably just my mind,but that thing looks vaguely obscene!

Still,i ve got a very nice picture in my head of Dusty standing by the servers,foam extinguisher in hand wearing a firemans helmet

 

[KrisSolo]

I buy to SELL BABY!!!!! SCALP SCALP SCALP!!!!

Only joking

I reckon the ES will increase ALOT for this exclusive - 2,500-3,000 IMHO. Time will tell I guess...

What a difference a week makes. It seem like just yesterday this board was full of nay sayers on the 1/6 Han. Now everyone's burning to pre-order.

Most of the people on this thread weren't among the naysayers.

I've only managed to get an exclusive of one of the Order of the Jedi, Kit Fisto. I feel lucky to have gotten just the regular editions of Obi-Wan and Anakin. Anakin I had to order from Joel's Big Bad Toy Store, I can't remember why.

Jedi Luke Skywalker, I totally missed out on either edition. I just wasn't visiting Sideshow enough then. I hadn't even started coming here until a few (?) months ago.

I'm looking around the web for someplace were I can still order the regular edition of Jedi Luke Skywalker. I'm looking at Monsters in Motion and Dark Figures right now... I would like to be able to get as many SSC Star Wars 12" Figures Exclusives as I can, but I also have to be realistic. If I can get a regular edition of a figure elsewhere when it's sold out at Sideshow's site I will.

Keep hunting...their out there..just becareful as many will sell more pre-orders than they actually recieve..by the time the pre-order begins to ship your time has expired on any action you can take for getting ripped off..theres a thread on one of these boards about that..I forget were.

Yep, I'm hoping the "getting-ripped-off" part won't happen once they start shipping. I'm confident that BBTS won't do such a thing with my regular edition of Anakin I pre-ordered. I have pre-ordered a regular edition of Jedi Luke Skywalker from Wicked Cool Stuff, and in a message with my order, I asked them to please not sell more pre-orders than they could ship out later this month.

Folsom, I and many people here have found out that the wait list actually does work for the exclusives. Keep that in mind.

From the SW official site: "Sideshow assures fans that the mynock figure doesn't actually suck -- it just looks like it does."

No, seriously -- now that the official site has sicced the global fans onto it, the demand will be INCREDIBLE. After all, how many Mynocks are out there? And this one can actually be used as a fridge magnet! Oboy. I hope my luck holds. I was there exactly at the appointed time for Kit, and ordered one quickly and with no problems. But this is HAN SOLO.

Indeed it is Mr. Solo...

I am on SSC's waitlist for the regular Jedi Luke Skywalker, just in case.

You don't need to tell me the wait list works!

I was on the wait list for the regular edition and exclusive edition of the Doctor Doom 1/4th PF figure. First, my wait list res for the regular edition was converted in to an order. Then my wait list res for the exclusive edition was converted in to an order, so I cancelled my order for the regular one.

I had also been on the wait list for the Exclusive X-Men Diorama and that was converted in to an order!

So, yes, thankfully, the system works. I had told my sister about the Marvel stuff SSC is making and my wait list conversions for said Marvel stuff and her reply was, "Wow, they're really organized!"

 

[Seretur]

Great news about Doom!

Well, I got my Anakin Exclusive off the wait list. But I guess the trick is to be quick: if you put your wait list reservation in within hours of the item selling out, you ought to be in luck.

I don't know how true this will hold for Han. They might stop taking wait list reservations for him quite fast, just like with Jedi Luke, simply because of the incredible demand.
