Ok how long you estimate these to be in stock and will you be getting a second shipment if these are gone by days time

I expect we'll have enough stock to last about 10-14 days overall. Though I couldn't say which version might sell out first. All three styles have held the sales lead at some point over the past day and a half.

Ok thanks for your info, I will be ordering a set of 3 tomorow. What I did notice comparing BBTS to you guys is that the figure retails average 80 something dollars right? You guys have listed 73. On BBTS they have a set of 3 for 200$. But if you had 73 three times it equals to about 220 not including shipping. Its weird how this marketing works. Your price for one individual is cheaper the MSRP but their is no deal on getting 3 at one time. JuSt have to order one at a time.

I just ordered the open mouth version from CSC.

**ATTENTION Centurion**

Heads up, I just called Amoktime and the guy I talked to said they may not even get these in at all! He said they were "a problem order" and that they're "trying really hard".

To hell with that, I'm not gambling on them!

I freaked the hell out and jumped on CSC and ordered mine! I ordered one set instead of three but still I'm happy that I called Amoktime...whew!

Take evasive action dude.

CornerStoreComics,
I guess I'm still a little shaken up by the scare I had today with Amoktime (should have ordered from you guys to begin with, forgive me, won't make that mistake again lol) but I placed my order with you guys today, am I good to go?

I just want to know so that I can call Amoktime and cancel my order with them, thanks. Plus so that I can rest easy knowing that I've got a set on it's way lol.

Trying, can't get it to stand in dynamic poses.
Figure looks amazing but it's nowhere near articulated like the Hot Toys version.

Thanks. If you do manage it can you post a pic...pretty please?

Also, is the mouth really that pink or is it just the lighting in the photo etc?

We've still got plenty of Predators, but the warehouse guys are slammed getting them out, so new orders may not make it out until Monday at this point.

Will the closed mouth be going back on ebay? I got the last open mouth.

 

[dino76m]

I can only speak to what we considered when we priced these. We're not shipping sealed cases on these because we are concerned about shipping damages. Had we decided to offer sets (a sealed case), we probably would have lowered the price because there is much, much less work and materials expense that goes into slapping a label on an existing sealed case than to break that case down into two separately packed boxes for safer shipping.

Again, this is just my take on the 'set savings' issue. I have zero idea how anyone else is shipping their sets out to their customers or how they arrived at their pricing decisions.

All three are up.
