Sideshow Stormtrooper 12" figure

[The Josh]

Those Troopers are likely production models too. :

That would be my guess. They look damn good. Got my stupid butt back on the WL or may just have to get one someplace else. Not sure what I was thinking.

What did you cancel? Exclusive or regular?

 

[pixletwin]

Are we talking Cobra Troopers or Storm Troopers? Sorry Pixel threw we off without verifying which one we are talking about...

Its the stormtrooper thread.

 

[Skiman]

Its the stormtrooper thread.

Yeah yeah, until that GI pic went up, so there was fair game.

 

[The Josh]

What did you cancel? Exclusive or regular?

I actually had one of each from SDCC. I just got back on the WL for a regular which is fine with me.

You know where to get it....

 

[Skiman]

I actually canceled this on accident, whenever they first posted for PO, you could order 2 Ex's at a time, well I totally forgot that my order had the 2 Ex's and I wanted to keep one. Well... not looking I canceled really quickly realizing that I canceled two exclusives and kept one reg. I got back on the wait list for Ex and it was soon converted as well so no worries.

 

[The Josh]

You know where to get it....

Yup, once things get figured out there as it should that will be my first target assuming my WL doesn't convert.

Has anyone received their preauth yet? None for me.

Nope. It looks like next week we'll start seeing preauths.

I bumped mine over to the flexpy option, and got a notification tonight that they will be bumping the flexpay back a month due to a shipping delay. Just FYI.

Please be advised the delayed payment will take effect on March 16^th instead of February due to item is not going to be shipped for another week.

Please advise if this works for you

I look forward to assisting you further!

sorry Lerath...when u say regular ones..u mean in payment,not flexpay...or do u mean Exclusive Vs regular Stormie...cause what im trying to ask is,if they hold back til AFTER the 28th Feb i could be able to get something else i want to order and then have enough cash to pay for Ex Stormie...

 

[lerath666]

No problem, i meant The ones that are in Regular payment. For what it's worth, mine's an exclusive version, and those tend to get shipped out first, before the regular versions. So i'd say the delay affectin mine will likely affect everyone with the Exclusiv version.

 

[pixletwin]

So regular payment folks aren't going to see preauths for another week basically?

Does this meant reg pay orders won't ship till then while flexpay folk are getting theirs until mid march?

 

[lerath666]

That's how i understand it, Yes
which is gonna be neet, becuase i've got my last payment on snake eyes, Iron man, and The stormy all on the same day now

 

[Glennfett]

so i should hold off my money for another week just incase it gets pre authd,would hate to miss out on the Ex just because i went and bout something else next week that i prob get a few weeks down the track...

 

[pixletwin]

I know. I have been itching to buy some cybermen but I haven't because of the Trooper preauth.

 

[coolkansaswind]

well i have 3 troopers coming ... cant wait to get this i think i will send one off to AFA to go along with my SS EX Luke i have graded ... will be nice

 

[jkno]

well i have 3 troopers coming ... cant wait to get this i think i will send one off to AFA to go along with my SS EX Luke i have graded ... will be nice

So AFA will grade the figure and the box will be encased in a transparent plastic case? But you won't be able to see if the figure is there?

 

[lerath666]

well i have 3 troopers coming ... cant wait to get this i think i will send one off to AFA to go along with my SS EX Luke i have graded ... will be nice

not trying to come off as condecending, nor insulting, but i never got the whole idea behind AFA grading, can you explane the appeal of it to me?

No offense, it's a serious question. If i spend As much on a Toy as i spend on sideshow figures, You can be Damn sure i'm gonna open it and enjoy posing it. Looking at it in the box.. or, better yet, never being able to even look at it in the box simply baffels me.

Please, help me understand the appeal?
