XM Studios 1/4 Ghost Rider

[GeneralZodLives]

That's good to know that there will be more than one opportunity to try to get it.

They allocated only 200 pieces today which instantly sold out & will offer another 50 tomorrow (according to the guys who attended today). They will allocate some for future Asia events & will offer some through their website. If u (or your source) didnt get one today, there will be other chances.

200 pcs did not last that long.
for 50pcs on Sunday will be gone in a flash.

agree, but this event is only 25% of the whole run

Still dont know why XM decided to bring only 250 out of 999 to the huge highly antcipated event which gr was the event exclusive. They should have brought at least 500 or mor there.

It doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter.

It does for us waiting for one

You're not there waiting, it doesn't matter to you. Now go open Wolverine.

Sucks if you're there and it's not though. Exactly what happened in my case. Imagine if this was the only XM statue you were after, and after 2.5hrs of queuing you've got nothing to show for it.

Would suck, no doubt. There's more chances to get him though, so that's a plus.

 

[Hemooo]

they should announce form the bringing that they will be offering 250 pieces only during the show. The vast majority lined up thinking it's the only way to get one.

 

[Nawoo]

I got up at 615am on Saturday and dragged my friend with me.

When we got there, there were a ton of people, but they all soon headed into a separate queue for Hot toys, bumping us right to the front. There about 10 people before us. But when 930am came, all the ViP pass holders came along and went in ahead of us. By the time it came to us normal ticket holders to get in the XM line, our numbers were already 40-41 for Ghost Rider.

This is for people with the normal tickets who were at the very front of the line.

We waited about 2.5 hrs just to move 15m! I cannot imagine how all those who were way behind must have felt.

Congrats to those who got what they wanted. To those who didn't, the early bird catches the worm. Wake up earlier next time!

Ruins the entire day hahaha

Sounds like XM didn't make it easy for people to get preorders this weekend. It's funny that on their website they state:

Ghost Rider will be Retailed at SGD990. Pre Order Deposit is SGD350 and for a limited period, customers can also opt to pay in full to get SGD100 off the retail price. E.g. if you pay in full upfront, the final price will only be SGD890. ES will not be over 999 as per our Marvel line but final ES will be set after we assess response.

What kind of response were they expecting? Everyone to look at this and go "Meh. Looks ok I guess." They could set the ES at 3000 and it would sell out faster than Sideshow statues with the same ES.

That same thing happened to me at SDCC. Wait in line for hours and find out the allotment for that day is sold out and be told "Try again tomorrow!"

Yep. To slightly alter a phrase that has become very popular on this site, I'll say, "Welcome to the life of the American con-goer!"

"Early bird catches the worm".

Well Said indeed
Some queued overnight.
Some queued at 6am.
Hard Work + some luck to reap some reward.

if all 999 pcs are released and sold at STGCC, another camp of collectors will protest as well.

Just be happy they let you purchase it. In America, another thing becoming popular is to simply give you the "chance" to get what you want. Imagine standing in line all that time, and then having some person who showed up at the last minute get something you didn't. Apparently, some people think this is more fair than just giving it to the people who waited all night.
