Sideshow Stormtrooper 12" figure

To me, this says these guys are well in production, if they're locked into an ES that they must change the ordering option for the Ex. to benefit NAs, must mean they're at a point that can't increase the ES or I'm sure they'd do that.

He is supposed to ship this year, so I assume he's ahead of Vader in the production process.

Good point. Just glad people will be able to get one and there is the regular people can get as well.

Yup, I placed a single Regular order tonight, then depending on the outcome of tomorrow, I'll either cancel my 2 Regs order and go with Ex. and Reg, or cancel the single Reg order if I can't get the Ex. tomorrow.

I want to see what the exclusive blaster pistol looks like. Probably, most people will pose them with the rifles anyway.

 

[MaulFan]

Not a great view, but gives an idea of the size.

 

[Seaward]

Thanks for the picture. I'll still be trying tomorrow, but I'll feel just fine should I miss out on this one.

 

[MaulFan]

Here's another angle.

I'm assuming this pistol is the Ex.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Newsletter now says only 1 Stormtrooper per customer.

Those ordered at the Con will be honored.

Better keep the Reg Stormtrooper you ordered.

I don't think so, I don't want to be a Debby downer but I just don't see it happening. But I would love to be wrong.

Why don't you think so, SSC already has production samples, which are what was on display at SDCC and August is just starting, and it seems like ES may be tightly locked in already with the change in Ex. ordering options, so odds are highly favorable for this to ship before the end of the year.

Sorry if I am late to the party here, but why does the NL say that Darth Vader and Stormie PPO at the same time?

Remember that collectors will have the opportunity to place their Pre-Order for Sideshow Collectibles' Exclusive Stormtrooper 12-inch figure during our Priority Pre-Order event on Friday, August 1st at 10am (Pacific Time). Important note: Due to the high number of pieces ordered at Comic-Con, we have limited the number of Exclusive Stormtroopers that can be ordered to ONE per person. If you placed a Pre-Order for 2 pieces at the convention, you order will be protected!

Typo most likely.

To bad the 1 ST per customer isn't a typo too.

 

[icruise]

I placed an order for two regular Stormtroopers. The order cancelation page says "contact to cancel" for them (and only them). If I am able to get one exclusive tomorrow, can I cancel just one of those regulars or do you have to cancel the whole order?

This whole idea of people losing out on a chance to order because of SDCC preorders is what we were discussing in the vader thread. Kind of sucks, but I don't really care all that much about this exclusive.

 

[MaulFan]

I'm guessing they figured the Ex. wouldn't be a big deal, unerestimated Con POs, and figured the ability to buy 4 regulars would mean that people would be ok whatever the outcome.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Also means that these guys are gonna go fast.

Except that you can order 6 regulars.

 

[galactiboy]

Hmmm... interesting development. Oh well, just means you need to be extra frosty tomorrow

 

[Memnoch]

Wow just saw the 1 per person thing, not cool Sideshow.. not cool.

 

[el81295]

Is something weird going on here? The exclusive is down to 1 and the regular is up from 6 to 7 per person?

 

[pixletwin]

I ex per customer is okie dokie with me. I planned on one regular and one ex anyway.
