But then why did my QuantumView shipping notice list an estimated delivery date of July 19??

If SSC had scheduled a later pickup date for UPS, then I doubt they would've given such an early delivery estimate.
 
Those can always be adjusted though. I've gotten them in the past and said one date then got adjusted the next day.
 
I've never had a Quantum notice where the item wasn't delivered within a day or two of notification. Certainly SS isn't notifying UPS weeks in advance.

The last time I got a Quantum on Friday for a Monday delivery this same thing happened -- it never came on Monday, but was picked up that night and delivered the next day instead. I believe that was for Faramir.

Anyway, I'll know tonight...
 
I think he means an Exclusive of the SDCC Exclusive. Sideshow refuses to do that and makes the exact same item available to both As and NAs.
And this is why Sideshow is my favorite collectible maker/distributor.

I'm strangely excited about getting my hands on this... it's almost to the point that I'm more jazzed for stuff like this and Bubo and the chess table than I am for the regular figure releases.

I think part of their appeal is because they're basically all paint and sculpting, where the figures only have the heads for any over the top artsy look, but the tones and shading on the creatures, and what looks like some nice weathering on the mechno chair, it's very impressive to see stuff like that executed so well.
 
i'm torn on who to pose with sidious....if it is maul then who will stab qui-gon?...decisions, decisions.

received my quantum notice too....usually means it will ship the next day...never received it when it didn't ship the next day.

You're just gonna have to breakdown and get a medicom Clone! :rotfl At least it's an idea. Although I guess they wouldn't really go with, but it'd make for a fun set up!

Personally I'm loving the concept of this thing, and the fact that Sidious is removeable makes it all the more versatile! At least in my opinion. You could have the chair in "off" mode and use Sidious elsewhere like with Anakin/Vader.

i guess if you really think about it the only one that SS has out that would really go with sidious would be maul since Vader never walked with the hologram. i do really want the medi figures but can't swallow spending that kind of money for a 12"....i'm sure one day i'll be weak and cave though.
 
Being an attendee sure hurts when they start shipping out this early to everybody else!

But I will take comfort in the fact that mine was cheaper and cost nothing to ship.

And seeing all of the new stuff in person will also take the sting off.

Get multiple Mauls. I've currently got two... one posed without his cloak with the double-bladed saber and one riding the Hasbro Sith Speeder (getting a loose Maul sans outer cloak and accessories was surprisinly affordable). I'd actually like a third to pose standing with his cloak on, though I just might cave and get the MediMaul.

No such thing as too much Maul, I have 3 and I'm planning to get the Medi too :)

Uh yeah Tom...take it from someone who isn't going, you will have a better time.

Indeed--I wouldn't trade the experience for my Sidious a week early!

Last year I had a lot of fun posting pictures of the new stuff from my hotel room, but this year it's a one day trip and so I will leave the picture taking in the able hands of my fellow board members.
 
I got my tracking number last night, and it had an estimated arrival date in Quantum View, yet the tracking page has no date and just says billed, while same day, my Leia Boushh shipped, has already moved through parts of California, and in the UPS system has a delivery date of this Friday, all of which lead me to further believe, the Darth Sidious' have been shipped as far as the system goes, but no pickup has occurred yet. I would be very surprised if 2 items shipped at the same time, and one had full tracking info and a clear sign of movement, while the other has nothing but billing received.
 
My Sidious still has not been released to UPS from SS, although I did receive a Quantum notice on Friday saying it would be delivered on Monday, yesterday... Hmmm.... what's the hold up?
