if they implemented cancellation fees, i would have to implement my "the prototype looked so much better" fees...
 
I would certainly feel better about tomorrow's PPO if I could see my order from SDCC in my online account. There's a part of me that wants to order again tomorrow just in case...

i wouldn't worry about it... just hold on to the yellow receipt and you are gold.
 
also, there was an amount set aside for the european market (forbidden planet, etc..).

Yes, these will be included in the total edition size, as it is a domestic exclusive, not a true Sideshow Exclusive. I *can* say that we would have a HUGE riot on our hands if we limited this piece to what was originally intended, not only from our collectors, but from our overseas distributors as well. The overwhelming public reaction to it, along with the completely unexpected final bid for the red/yellow light up version during the Diane auction, has been the subject of much discussion around these parts - one of the HUGE benefits of waiting to decide on an edition size until after the Con.

The Powers That Be at Sideshow DO listen, and do want as many collectors as possible to be able to get it without resorting to the secondary market, while still retaining it's value. Admittedly, that's a hard line to toe, and there's no way to please every single person, but we're hoping that all the listening has done some good and the majority of our collectors will be happy.

These threads always make for a very interesting read! :duff
 
Huh, could you say what the original ES was Dusty? I'm definitely trying for one tomorrow but if I don't get it I'll pass and save up for the original excl...

thanks for listening SS!!!
 
I don't envy their task. A balance also has to be kept because a significantly large edition size will most likely lead to cancellations.

Keeping in mind that some also need to be set aside for Europe which I hadn't thought about before, I'm thinking 1000 ES.
 
My guess of 650 now feels a little on the low side.

I am sensing happy collectors and sad flippers.

Unfortunately, that's part of that fine line Dusty was talking about. If the ES is too high, it will mean that many collectors will be unhappy, thanks to the knowledge that the statue will ultimately be available later at bargain prices. If it is any higher than 750, that will be the case. If it ends up too much higher than 1000, I may not even order tomorrow. I have a hard time trying to justify paying $300 for something I know I could get later for $250.
 
:rotfl:rotfl:lol

The first flipper speaks out. Geeze, a second ago you were ready to order two. Do you like this thing or not?

I personally hope the ES is really high so that I can just log on easily tomorrow and get out with my order. Screw ebay-I just want my Iron Man with lights....(it's not really stealth).
