Predator notice

[Viking28]

Well I just got off the phone with Sideshow about the Predator exclusive when will it will be shipping. And was told that most likely that we will be getting a email next week for a 15 day notice for shipping.
Which is cool with me, but what happened to the 30 day notice for him?

 

[Darklord Dave]

Maybe he's in stealth mode - that way you'll never see him coming...


As noted in another thread I got notice that my final flex pay would happen TODAY and he'd ship 5-7 after that.

 

[Viking28]

Well see now I'm confused because thats what I've been reading so I called up to see when it will be shipping and was told most likely 15 days from next week. Maybe someone from SS can chime in to clear it up.

LMAO

My guess is it will still be 15 days until he ships.

 

[Spiff]

Hmm... well, apparently some people already have: [ ebay link ] ??

Really looking forward to this piece myself. Can't wait to get it! Will really get excited once get the 15 day notice.

 

[the Doctor]

this time next month then lads!!!!

So someone in Taiwan already has it? At least, they say they will ship within 1 business day after receiving payment, sounds to me like they do indeed have this! Strange that they used Sideshow's stock pics instead of taking some new ones, but maybe they didn't want to unpack this behemoth (can't say I blame them).

Last flex payment today, so can't wait til this baby ships!!!

 

[ComputerFly]

That auction must be for a factory reject or something. What's going on with that mask with the 'eye covering' ripped out? And why would they just have the mask, instead of the entire head? Methinks someone snuck a certain something out the laundrychute!


If the exclusive hasn't shipped, why isn't SS shutting this auction down?

 

[LOTRFan]

Those are just early pics before they added the dreds to the additional head. I am not sure about the "eye covering" being ripped out, I think it is more a matter of reflection.

 

[Viking28]

Yea that pic is an earlier pic of the mask before the dreads were added to it.

 

[Darklord Dave]

Well we've seen people in HK and the Phillipines get stuff early recently (ever since HT started distributing SSC stuff?), so it's very possible that someone in Taiwan has it in hand. But what would shipping be on that monster from Taiwan to the US?

 

[Viking28]

Someone on the S.F. board emailed the seller and the seller replied saying they do not have it in hand.

 

[lcummins]

Is this the auction in question?

If so, the description says it is in stock and even lists the number (#146)!

 

[Migwit]

Yes, that's it. I notice that the seller removed the number of the item and now says that this figure will reach Taiwan in the next 5 days. Looks like he/she got nervous and changed their listing.

 

[wizard-comics]

good auction to stay away from! has fraud written all over it

 

[Polystoned]

I had my WL activation cancelled the next day, due to "inventory miscalculation". This happen to anyone else? Hope it's not a large problem out there!

 

[Lynxje]

So, anything on this critter? I understand flexpayers paid theirs the 15th and it would ship 5-7 days later.....

 

[Wor-Gar]

My SCAR will be here in 4-7 days!

Pictures will follow...

With all due respect but "we" 're not talking about those eeny weeny tiny dolls here... This topic is about the Mother of ALL Predator statues!




But damn. I haven't had any notice at all!! then again. I realy don't mind if they would keep mine till last. I could use some breathing room on my VISA card..
