Wait Lists

[fanatykk]

Hi.
I was wondering how long it will take for the wait list (for old items such as Saruman, Ringwraith..) to be updated ?
I mean, I am impatient to know : will I get these statues or not (I know there is only a very little chance to...) ?
How long will it take for Sideshow to list the stock ??

Whenever I have gotten an item from the waiting list, I was contacted months after I had put myself on the list. It all depends on when they find out whether or not that item is available. I would think it should be within the next few months because they'd probably like to get as much LOTR items cleared out as possible before the end of the year. It's just my guess though.

I wouldn't count on seeing waitlists filled for those 2 items. The waitlists sometimes remained up even when the item was retired with no chance of new product.

But with the recent RWOS finds, I guess you can never say never.

Yeah, every time you put in for one of those wait lists they give you one of those warnings that these usually apply to preorders or those just sold out. Not to the ones sold out two years ago. We can hope, I guess.

I asked about Wait Lists for the previously sold out items at the Sideshow booth and was told that there were very few of each item.

Sounded as if they had done an inventory or cleaning of the warehouse and discovered statues they didn't know they had. I had put myself on a few lists for the items I missed the first time around. I can always hope.

It has typically taken about 6 months to 1 year for myself , following my request for wait list items .

Just got a mail from Sideshow saying my Wait List request for Gimli, son of Gloin will be converted into a placed order <img border=0 src="http://home.earthlink.net/~dstephan/gifs/banana.gif" /><img border=0 src="http://home.earthlink.net/~dstephan/gifs/banana.gif" /><img border=0 src="http://home.earthlink.net/~dstephan/gifs/banana.gif" />

I put my name down for an original Balrog last month and it arrived today. Not bad for $300 plus shipping. The only downside is that it doesn't have a number on the base. It just says 'Artist Proof'. Must be a reject...

[Wetafiend]

:mwaha Yeah, it's crap. I'll give you half what you paid. After all, I'd have to get that writing removed from the bottom.

JS hit the nail on the head. It's my warped sense of humour. :D

I know that there are many here who've managed to score from the wait lists, but I've never gotten anything from them - and I can't even remember how many of them I am on.

[Gunner1973]

Did anyone get the Minas Morgul from the waitlist? There doesn't seem to be that many around at a realistic price considering that there are 8500 of them. I put my name on that list the day it was flagged as sold out but I didn't hear anything.>:
