**** that. International shipping is a *****. I've been lucky when getting packages from overseas that I rarely get hit with extra charges. Hopefully you're happy with the figure.

It's a Sentinel product, I'm sure mine will be riddled with crippling defects that they'll refuse to service and further, render me unable to flip the figure to recoup some of the costs, while everyone else who purchases from them waxes lyrical about the gloriously-engineered toy perfection they receive time after time

yeah int'l shipping is getting beyond ridiculous. i had a return to popcultcha for a defect... the figure was $135. the shipping charge to return it was $68! just plain crazy. it obviously can't be the same for guys over seas to send stuff here... my charge from PC was $14 for the original shipping... so how is it almost 5X to send it back???

It's crazy here in the UK. Don't know why I even bother adding an international shipping option when I Ebay old figures. I suspect companies must get some kind of volume discount considering my Australian friend was telling me the other day that he orders most of his clothes online from London because the shipping is cheaper internationally than internally.

SDCC exclusive from Cryptozoic

 

[Snake Plissken]

I kinda like that.

 

[GeneralZodLives]

I'm going to try to pick one up. It's the first exclusive this year that I've actually really liked. It's limited to 100 so it'll probably be impossible to get.

i saw the original... it was around $80 i think. looks cool.

 

[Jameson Rook]

That would go well with the Tricforce Arkham Batarang!

Sentinel Re:Edit figure showed up. Initial impressions were that I'd been conned by this meme of a company again. Test batteries dead. Found a couple of small paint imperfections on the Torso. One of the alternate hands was rattling around loose in the tray. The figure felt even lighter, hollower and more model kit-flimsy than the old all-plastic Hot Toys Iron Men taking it out of the box.

Spoiler

Impressions changed once I threw some new batteries in it and started messing around with it. This figure is never leaving my desk. It's lightweight but also very sturdily constructed, absurdly stable and an absolute joy to pose.

Would love to see some DC stuff from this company, maybe some Green Lantern Corps figures with a similar lighting gimmick or an armoured Batman.

I don't have any of their figures, but they look cool. I'm surprised they haven't made any DC Injustice figures since they're all armored up.

I'd be all over a Re:Edit Injustice Flash and Reverse Flash, if such things ever came to exist.

I despise most of the Injustice designs, but the good ones are really good. I'm holding off buying Injustice 2 until the version comes out with all the DLC, and I'm surprised I've stuck to my guns. Overall everything about it looks great (and I'm really interested in being able to change the character designs) but having to constantly fork out more money for characters irritates the **** out me.

It's never worth buying a game on release any more. Just wait 12 months and get the full package when it's on sale.

Agreed on the Injustice designs, most of them are awful but the good ones are absolutely top-notch.

Especially when it's coming from Netherrealm Studios. You get all that DLC for free.

I bought the season pass for the first Injustice after release, and I felt cheated when I found out it didn't give you all of the DLC - only a select bit.

 

[Pro Design]

i've found myself getting more and more turned off from the greedy cash grab w/ DLC... enough that i'm finding my self not buying games anymore. if i purchase the game, you milking me for another $20 for a character or two that "should" have been there from the beginning is ridiculous. i get it if you come back to a game a year later and redesign it or spend a bunch of time making new stuff... but this bs of release date, buy the original or spend another $30 and get the full game is a joke!

 

[GeneralZodLives]

I agree. Not like I have a ton of time anymore to play games like I used to but I've found myself holding off on buying a lot of games the last couple years. It's frustrating to buy a game and realize it was sold to you incomplete. Stuff like skins should be unlockable, and the same goes for extra gameplay levels. You play the **** out of the game and you get rewarded with extra bits like you used to in the old days.
