2 days of work for me too... today is not so bad, aside from being a bit sick. But Monday will be brutal :lol
 
Shared exclusives.
It's their way of getting them in the hands of fans that can't attend.

Is that such a bad thing?
 
Once mine shipped they came pretty fast. Maybe two days later?
Mine is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. Now I just need to remember to BRING THEM to Orlando! :lol

Gentle Giant at SDCC is what brought me to Sideshow, and ultimately to you fine folks....

So, I have them to thank for that at least. :lol
Actually, my first experience with GG was so horrible that I have always hated them. They're a horrible company. But I still can't resist buying some of their products. I don't boycott well. But I'm sure I would have collected mini-busts if they hadn't screwed me over with their very first SDCC exclusive. That put a bitter taste in my mouth that I'll never forget...

For you Funko Freaks that want the Rey on Speeder.
Sold out. :( I mean, I know I can buy it there. But anything less to take home in my luggage, the better! I'll bring it home damaged! :lol

So are there none of these that are true Celebration Exclusives then?
Garindan?

Yes. They shouldn't call it an exclusive then. Personally I don't like shared exclusives. These should be incentives for the people who spend a ton of money going to the conventions.

It's never been this bad... with the 3 tiers of membership they have to split up the allotment over 3 days... so it makes it fewer per day before they sell out.
It's just their old ordering system... it will log you out, or go back to the beginning of checkout after so many refreshes and page crashes. Ugh.

So I have what might be a silly question about the GG exclusive. If I am not a PGM does that mean that I can't get the bust? I can't just buy at the booth?

No not at all, just curious if they were all shared exclusives.

And same people who feel this way now, will be pissed if they could not get a shared exclusive online or at a local store that has it, for a con they could NOT attend.

TO me I think the scalpers and dolphines are the ones that hate the shared exclusives the most.
