Anyone ever received #1 out of xxx from SS?

[gagaliya]

Not #10, nor #2. But #1 out of xxx. Did anyone ever receive one from SS? if yes, can you post and state the statue please.

most of the time, VIPs get the #1, lowest number I have is #12

I'm literally a very important person. So I guess I am under consideration.

I had an 11 once - with the Grey Hulk PF... that's the lowest I've ever had.

yeah what exactly do you mean by VIPs? how do they determine that.

 

[toystales]

I have a #7. It's the Anubis Temple 1/6 scale diorama.

Work for sideshow.

 

[gagaliya]

well that's not very fair...

 

[JosephCPR]

well that's not very fair...

Why not? After all, they are the ones who make these pieces.

Anyway, I'm sure that's not always the case. If I remember right, there are collectors who have received #1 sometimes. They just haven't posted here...yet.

What do you mean by VIP ? Well I know what VIP is but aren't we all paying the same price why SideShow favoritism ?

You raise a very good point. I would think employees would be privileged to "artist proofs" but regular numbered editions should be shipped out randomly to ALL paying customers including #1 so everybody has a chance to own #1.

 

[Master Wayne]

Lowest I ever had was #8.

The number is on the bottom of the base and is never seen. I couldn't care less what number is down there.

 

[Webb]

I guess the VIP's do.

I feel the same way. I don't care what number I have as long as I have the statue I want.

 

[Webb]

Important to some...Specially when selling it.

 

[karamazov80]

Sideshow never said every buyer had an equal chance of getting every edition number made, and not every buyer is equal in their eyes, so fairness doesn't come into play. Just like anything in this world, you get perks depending on what you do.

 

[kl241]

What's the point in even having a numbered system if nobody but the employees ever get the low numbers?

Or who you know.
