Threezero - Game of Thrones - 1/6 Eddard (Ned) Stark Figure

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Sideshow has alot of friggin nerve selling Ned for more than Threezero themselves are AND shipping? Man, **** that. It's not like they have the exclusive version. I wouldn't buy Ned from them if it was the last place to do it.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Hound? Yeah, I can see them doing him. I think its likely at that. Mountain? Eeehhh.

A man can dream, right?

Unless Tyrion and Ned tank, Jaime, Dany and Jon are pretty much givens.

Add Jeofry and Hound, and I would feel satisfied.

Yeah I was surprised when I saw that today. Going through Threezero and getting the EX and free shipping is the only way I'm getting this line.

 

[Jayrod88]

Do you guys think, with sideshow distributing ThreeZero Ned, that ThreeZero may be increasing the amount of figures the make each year? Could this mean more from Walking Dead and GOT?

 

[superdoug]

Does anyone know how long the pre-order is open on threezero's site? Still trying to decide on this one.


I am searching back through the thread too to see if the date was already given but sometimes I miss things.

 

[WhoaItsJBot]

No official date, but someone said Tyrion was up for about a month.

 

[Michael Crawford]

Yea, it's a little weird that SS is charging $10 more plus shipping - although I can see the appeal. If I weren't going for the inclusion of Ice, I'd consider it, since with ThreeZero you have to pay NOW, and with SS you can cancel if you're not feeling it when they start to ship.

 

[Bucky Underbelly]

If Sideshow is distributing GoT for ThreeZero, I wonder if they'll be doing Walking Dead, too?

Or if they'll be getting some Tyrions in stock a bit later?

 

[Protozaius]

ThreeZero also alluded that the window might be a little longer for Ned. But I would plan for a month just in case.

 

[Jbeltram4]

I hope he's up for PO a little longer. Def need to get Ice with Ned but the funds ain't gonna be there for about another two weeks. Although it just means I'm not going to collect this line then since getting Ned w/Ice is the basis of me getting Tyrion. I just can't get one and not get the whole line. I'm too weak!!

ThreeZero's Facebook says "awhile". I assume it will be a month. September 22nd-October 22nd.

I have a confession to make. I was definitely NOT going to get this, as even though I liked the character, his single season status just wasn't doing it for me - along with the less than stellar first photos of the head sculpt. But I've been sick this week with the flu and in a (likely) state of delirium, a couple of hours after seeing the pre-order email from Sideshow, I pulled the trigger on this last night from Three Zero directly. I also figure it's as good as anything for speculation if I decide to turn it around in a year or two.

So, as a big fan of the show, but thinking that I wouldn't be collecting figures from this line because the cast is just overwhelmingly good and vast, I've now got two of them on pre-order. WTF.

Hahaha We share similar taste!
Stick with the line, more buys equal more figures.
Who are you hoping to see made?

That's two of the problems right there. I don't want to collect a ton of figures from a single line (Star Wars is the exception) and there are so many really good characters and so many great looks, it's nearly impossible for me to choose. I had an easy time with Tyrion for a few reasons. It was the first and only figure announced (for a while) and it's my favorite character. Some additional help came from the uniqueness of the figure from a stature perspective and the fact I'm also a fan of Peter Dinklage as an actor.

So I could probably list every character on the show… and still be left with more questions than answers. I suppose that given these two, I'd feel OK also displaying a Jon Snow, even though I wouldn't be able to recreate or mimic any scene from the show. I think I'd also like to see Arya made - again, it would make a very unique figure in my collection.

 

[WhoaItsJBot]

I only collect my favorite characters and ones of personal importance. I want Ned but haven't decided yet if I need him. The main figure I want from the show is The Hound but I'd also be interested in Jon Snow and Jaime. A White Walker would be hard to pass up too.

Finding this forum was a big mistake for me. I started out as a Sideshow 1:6 collector. A few months after joining here, I was buying Hot Toys Predators, Terminator, Marvel, all the DX Figures, Batman Dark Knight/rises, S H Figuarts DBZ, Marvel selects, McFarlane Walking Dead, ThreeZero Walking dead, Sideshow Marvel and now this line.. This forum has introduced me to so many awesome toys, it's hard to keep up. But at the end of the day, it's what REALLY interests you, and what you can continue to afford.
So, this line, ThreeZero's walking dead, Sideshow/Hot Toys OT Star Wars figures, and Sideshow 1/6 Marvel is all I care to collect. I may venture off and buy afew other figures ( Hot Toys Ripley) but I'm trying real hard to stick to as few as lines as possible.

@pixelpiper Not sure why a single season status character would bother anyone, but I'm glad you picked up Ned. The more purchases the better for this line. I'm terrified this line will die an early death with so many better character then Jon Blow and White Walker to be made. It's hard hard to tell with this line.

I never considered a White Walker. That would be sick. Exclusive Dragon Glass?

 

[Protozaius]

I say this now but I may retract it later... I will pass on a White Walker. Definitely. Probably.

And I think that I'm the only one not too excited about the prospect of The Hound.
