QMX Princess Bride - Westley, The Dread Pirate Roberts

[asgardianboy]

Oh... OK... Thanks for the recap.
Damn it... I have been completely unaware of this whole situation...
How long since this happened??
m.

To the best of my knowledge:

Sideshow Collectibles threatened to pull affiliate status from the site over threads about unlicensed figures and custom runs. Which meant revenue from affiliate sales links would be lost, so unlicensed threads started getting shutdown and the custom section disappeared completely for a bit. Only to have Sideshow pull it anyway, so all the custom stuff got moved so projects people had already paid on were able to be finished and we’ve been free to discuss any figure from any company without the threads being closed.

If I’m wrong please correct me or add anything I missed.

Around June last summer.

This Westley figure might be my favorite addition of last year. It’s a great figure, and the nostalgia factor elevates it for me even more. It’s the one figure I always end up focusing on when I look over at the collection.

Says Inigo is in production. Probably looking at the normal quick QMX order fulfillment once it goes up

Fantastic news! I was afraid this line was dead.

 

[Josette]

That's great news.

Westley is a great figure. One of their best besides TOS Kirk and TWOK Khan, IMO. I still want to pick it up, and this news gives me more incentive.

Yeah, I kind of thought the maskless sculpt would be soft from the photos, but it is much better in hand

You beauty, day 1 purchase for me.... keep the line alive people!

 

[Josette]

I would like to see a Buttercup for this line after Inigo.



If QMX is looking for other 80s properties, how about a Labyrinth Jareth and Sarah....(I just want 1/6th scale figures of them so badly).

 

[Magnusstewardson]

I just put Labyrinth in the BluRay player a few weeks back for my niece to watch for the first time. I too was wondering when there would be a good 1/6 Jareth, and maybe 4 or 5 other Bowie figures to display with it. I wonder if anything will ever be done with those fabulous Bowie sculpts that showed up in the Molecule 8 Lennon thread. I think K.A. Kim sculpted them.

I would be happy if QMX looked into a few more older properties after this one gets a bit further along. Westley was my favorite 1/6 purchase last year. If I look over at my collection my eyes always end up on this figure. It’s a quality figure and the nostalgia factor bumps it up.

Wow! I need this stand.)

 

[Scifi67]

I have been resisting this figure/line but I'm not sure I can hold out much longer... That stand really sells the figure and great pose too!

 

[Magnusstewardson]

The $25 off STPAT2019 code at Sideshow works on this figure if anyone still hasn’t bought it. I think the code is good until the 18th.

50% off on Thinkgeek right now with their moving sale. Comes out to $109ish with shipping. Same for Picard.

Code: MOVINGDAY

And gone. Picard is still up.

Has there been any news on Inigo Montoya? I’m getting tempted, but a sword fight would seal the deal!

Nope, if he’s not at SDCC I’d say it’s gone.
