Congrats Rulk! Well that's one less for me as I sit on the fence lol.

Thanks fellas, now I'm debating what to do. Couldn't get in touch with SS today, just voicemail.

Aside from the break (huge bummer)

what are your thoughts on the piece?

In all honesty its hard for me to be objective because I'm a big X Men fan. That being said I think its a really terrific piece and came out much better than I expected. The paint job is done really well imo. Also, he looks like a big mean robot. I hated how the SS Gypsy Danger came out. Small, bad paint, mechanics looked like plastic. This guy is the exact opposite. If your an X Men fan and can afford him I really think its a no brainer, there is nothing else on the market even close to him. The old classic bowen is way out of league. Anyway, I took a few pics of him partially assembled and not all the way in the base. Even with a fully broken leg I had to try and balance him just to see what he would look like

slightly closer group pic in case any of these pics help yall decide

 

[SDguy]

Definitely a nice piece...Great pics, even though he's broken it would look great behind my Bowen X-men lineup.

 

[Rulk]

Thx man,

Holy smokes I just noticed I have almost 22 000 reward points

I was saving on some XMEN pieces but that is taking years...

I could either save for Phoenix Dark Phoenix Magneto or Batman Legendary Scale Figure

.... Depending on how well Sentinel comes out I might use rewards to get another one

 

[Rulk]

Awesome pics Nemen

I hope they send youan immaculate replacement

 

[Rulk]

I will post my first video review in years of Sentinel Maquette Monday or God willing if he shipped before todays cut off, This Friday

I havent been this excited for a piece since comic Batman / and or Storm

 

[Rulk]

Oh SNAP **** just got real

build a figure Absorbing Man, with McFarlane Venom and Spider Gwen ( I'm glad they took my suggestion from Comic Con and included her in the infinites wave )

THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING dealing with Sideshow...

OK so item was suppose to ship out yesterday. It doesn't.

I get a call 6 AM from UPS about the Arkham Batman I'm returning, the return label doesn't have the correct information on it that was provided by Sideshow

I spend literally the entire day trying to contact them via phone

1) Why hasn't my Sentinel shipped?

2) Why is UPS contacting me about incorrect customs information on an item sent to me by mistake and I'm taking my free time to return

3) Why hasn't the Batman Modern Age PF shipped after 10 days of paying?

----

Well now after calling 5 times throughout the day, they are closed. I don't have a tracking number for the Sentinel I paid for, and now the website says "on waitlist".

So essentially Ive paid for 3 items in full and have not or don't know WHEN they intend to ship any of these out. IE- Modern Thor paid for in full literally 4 months ago, Modern Age Batman PF paid over a week ago, Sentinel supposedly should've shipped out yesterday ... and NOW is on WAITLIST all of a sudden.

I don't think I'm being unreasonable at all, are they SERIOUS??! Unbelievable..

on top of that I just have 2 people provide false shipping addresses for items I am refunding now. Why is incompetence so rampant these days??

 

[gobombersgo]

WOW! I just joined the waitlist. really wanted to wait until after the holidays with Thor and Gray Hulk coming in! Really want this to put the points towards my Hulkbuster!

 

[Patriot666]

Man that sucks. Waitlist means you'll likely get someone else's return.

Rulk, that all sucks. Sorry to hear it.

 

[Rulk]

Ok just got email Batman shipped yesterday so props to them on that... I really want that Sentinel

Status stuck on shipping soon

No tracking and is on waitlist now

 

[hockeyflow33]

Did not see the waitlist coming for this guy. Too bad I was hoping to use my reward points once they got a little higher

 

[Rulk]

Nevermind I apologize

Mine shipped today

I was pissed someone was trying to scam me out of Deadpool PF by providing wrong shipping address

Headache, at least Sideshow did live up to their end of the bargain

 

[Gomur]

First of all, I'm sorry to see that damage, Nemen. Hopefully, you get a suitable replacement. You have an amazing collection.

Congrats Rulk! You made the right decision.

Guys, I haven't been this impressed by a SS piece in quite some time. The Sentinel is an absolute beast at 32". Scale works perfectly with 1/6 statues. My Koto Wolverine is ready to climb his back and bellow "This one's for you, Morph!" The pose is fantastic. With a 15" diameter it's tricky to find space for him at the moment. I'm going to spend the next hours boxing up pieces to make room.

Where's CBG crying because he missed out?

Oh yeah, he's waiting for a $200 discount and free shipping

I hope you don't get the zap a gap email I've gotten for breaks lately...
Good luck mate.

 

[markecho]

Thanks for the kind words CF79! Much appreciated!

Holy crap…Sorry to hear about your troubles nemenforcer. That is such a let down. Hope SSC can send you a replacement and quickly!
And your display looks awesome! Thanks for sharing the pics. Well look on the bright side, you now have battle damaged Sentinel parts you can use for some X-Men! As long as SSC gets you good replacement parts

Congrats Rulk and Gomur! Looking forward to seeing more pics!

I was hesitant too but I think once I see him, I'll be glad. I didn't think he would be wait listed either!

Should be delivered today! Can't wait and I'll try to post some more pics also!
