Yeah, definitely frustrating. HT never gets these right. They make so little of figures that are actually popular, and make so many of figures that don't seem to move. Then again, maybe it's a "chicken or the egg" thing. Maybe some figures are popular just because they made so few of them? Hard...
I'm on the wait list. We'll see what happens there. Now I wish I would've waited before ordering BT-1. I feel like if they always intended to make one of these limited, they should have made them a set, and made the set limited. Why split them up?
SOLD OUT.
(10:44AM PT) Resist those murderous urges… 100% of our 0-0-0 Figures have been assigned new stations. Please join the wait list when you reach the product page.
I'm looking forward to seeing how they attach the Chimera to the Eye of Sion. I'm assuming it will work similarly to how the old Jedi Starfighters attached to the hyperspace rings.
Ordered Saavik (Regula One) as well, at Sideshow. I had $74 in rewards to use, so that helped out a lot. I am super pumped for this line. The TWOK uniforms are probably EXO's best yet.
Just got my cancellation notice from Sideshow. "Unfortunately we have received an update from the manufacturer that they have cancelled production for this item. As such we must cancel your order."
So, that sucks. Two years of waiting and now cancelled. :(
Got my replacement Delorean, today. All appears to be good, this time. Although, when I opened the box and lifted off the top styrofoam tray, I saw that the hood was loose, and laying on top of the windshield. But, it wasn't broken, the pegs just came out of the slots. Not sure how that...
Welp, it's been over a year since the last update. I'm starting to wonder if this figure will ever actually get made. I've had a pre-order in, with SS, for nearly two years, now. I'm hanging in there, but I'm getting less optimistic by the day.
Yeah, definitely put the batteries in, just to check all of the lights. These vehicles have been so hit and miss. Hopefully yours is one of the good ones.
Definitely will give an update, whenever I get a new one. That one problem aside, the vehicle is amazing. I hated to put it back in the box, but at over $900 all-in, there's no way I was going to risk trying to fix that light. Like you said, it should be working being brand new from the factory...
