1/6 Hot Toys - VGM58 - Battlefront 2: Umbra Operative ARC Trooper (Exclusive)

Oh I don’t like SS’s queue system at all. It is ****** af. Why let us wait when it is sold out? Just limit the queue for the amount of items available +5-10%….


My spot was paused as soon as I got to the finish line. At start, I was given the spot 800. Not a big batch allotted to sideshow…

So 500 SS + 300 China = 800. Where's the other half going?

This is super odd. Who else is in this? Europe? Australia’s Pop?

I think I misread the Shop page in rage. didn't see the 1 in the 1500. My B.

Someone on ebay sold almost 40 out of Hong Kong according to the ad, so looks like the majority ended up there if legit, markup almost $500.

I PM'd plastic Hero, sounds like price may be going up from him. I can spare a little but not a lot more than what is is asking.

Wasn't too interested in this one (even though I worked on Battlefront 2), but still frustrated with the system regardless, having missed out on Artisan Anakin. Just a terrible setup from Sideshow.

Scalpers already popping up with crazy prices:

Anyone know any good 3rd party sellers to get from if its not already too late?

Toys Buying Agent has always done good for me. Check and see if he still has any left, it’s definitely not cheap but worth it IMO.

Edit: never mind, he’s already sold out. Sorry

I guess the bottom line here is, I dont like the feeling that a retailer is jerking me around, and I feel like all of us get jerked around with these little nonsensical stunts. Just put the amount you have online, sell those, boom done.

One thing I'm not gonna do is be #8795 in a queue for 500 items. They can F right off with that.

I wish they would just send an email saying that you’ve been selected and have x amount of time before you forfeit your spot. Would be better than playing the dumb little queue game they have going on.

What a bliss! Don’t ever waste your time in Sideshow’s ****** queue system. It’s too random.

I’m waiting for the rooted-hair artisan edition

I was number 280 or thereabouts and managed to get one. According to my order status, it’s shipping out the next business day.

…Waitlisted.

What a BS system.

Got on the countdown only to be waitlisted. Oh well, lame.
Wish they would just sell it regular they would still make more money. So dumb.
Now all the scalpers make the money instead.

He's sold 57 and raised the price to 530.00. I thought it was a scam.

By the way, Im not a clone collector but this one looks bad a**. He looks like some elite killer bee one man wrecking machine. No troop needed. Im going to display him with Anakin.
