The Indy Premium Format Figure Countdown/Discussion Thread

I guess I will be stuck on the waitlist or getting the regular

Like I mentioned before, for those thinking that they'll order this at a reduced rate from a retailer, think again. Alter Ego has it listed at only a 5% savings. You may as well get the EX and the rewards points instead of going the retailer route.

Got mine, just got off the phone from a chap called Kyle, apparently there was mass panic in Sideshow when the site went down!

Thats the guy I spoke to, he was really nice.

 

[The Mike]

Huh.....

Through SSC: $314 shipped to me
Through Alter-Ego: $296 shipped to me

only a savings of $18....and I'm in CA that gets hit with Tax and Shipping.

Going through a Retailer is getting less and less attractive if this pricepoint follows suit.

Yeah, no reason really to go anywhere but Sideshow, unless maybe if you are ordering from overseas.

 

[Indiana Fett]

Ready and willing I F!

You ROCK Les! I don't care what the factory does to screw up the paint apps, my Les repaint is going to DESTROY even the best of what the SS painters could pull off...even better than the prototype.

I WILL have the ULTIMATE Jones!!!

man! we don't need no more competition in this crazy game! Let them have their retailer Indy!

Yeah, the girl I spoke with was really sweet. You could tell it was a panic though, I've so been there before with phones blowing up..

She was awesome though, and very nice to me.

[Boba Fett]

[Leegeta]

This is the worst experience ever but i am so happy i got through

 

[Starkiller]

Mine is $281 shipped. :chew

 

[The Mike]

i wonder if there are a lot of people that are getting the exclusive to just make sure that they have one. down the line they'll get the regular for a cheaper price, and then either cancel the exclusive, or sell it.

Bingo.....people should not be so shortsighted and just assume that people were talking crap and going exclusive after all. I have one and will definitely cancel out if I find a significant savings from an Etailer but if not you can't beat the SSC returns policy if there are issues....

I guess I will be stuck on the waitlist or getting the regular

I have a feeling there will be many WLs that are converted on this

Not a bad ES at all and I'm glad its not shipping till the end of the year.

Which is surprising since IJ was saying that this was in the pipeline and just waiting to go, you'd think it'd ship sooner....it maybe cynical but Q4 usually translates to Q1 in my mind.

Yeah, you and I both know a lot of people are full of hot air.

Some yes but don't underestimate the old "Bird in the hand" rule of thumb.

I believe it. Neither can I. (Though Im likely going to find a Canadian Retailer in the end anyway ... )

Imagine how things will be when SSC is offering up Vader or Stormtroopers!

 

[Reinhardt]

Call them. 1-800-474-3746. that's how i got through.

Believe it or not, I still can't get through after 36 minutes.

Thanks! Still can't get in though.

When a 1/6 Vader goes up it'll fry the servers again I guarantee it.
