1/6th Scale IG-88 Figure LINK IN 1ST POST!

[Wor-Gar]

I'm conducting a little mini experiment. I ordered just a few weeks ago but paid in full at the time of my order. Just wondering if that put me to the top of the pecking order in front of those who may have placed their order earlier but only PO'd and still need to have their cards ran.

As a matter of fact, I called AE today about that very subject (in my case to maybe expedite HT Batman). Anyway, they said that they go in order of orders - not in order of payment. There is no bonus to paying in full. When you order or preorder, you are in line and that's the line they follow.

You just broke my little heart, Greg.

Were you thinking about cancelling your BBTS order and moving to AE and paying in full had our theory proven to be true?

Yep, exactly. I would have thought that if you paid in advance that would move you to the top of the list... but apparently not at AE.

Strange. IG-88 shipped today but my quantum notice has the delivery as next Wednesday! It never takes that long to get from AE to me...

 

[Rorywan]

Got mine earlier, he is a little fiddle but very cool. Another finger gets finger spiked though!

 

[FLOSI]

It won't be the last I bet.

I beginning to think SS deliberately booby trapped it!

I'd take a poke in the thumb right about now just to have this damn figure in hand.

[OutLander]

Just read about the shipping notices from AE you guys got and just checked my email: IG-88 scheduled to arrive by FRIDAY!

 

[Batty]

It's about time! I can't wait to see pics from you guys.

 

[galactiboy]

Personally... I can wait to see there pics; I'm already living it

Yeah, but I like seeing what other people can do with it.

Now bring Boba Fett on!

Neato!

But your holster is upside-down.

Great pix Glenn, can't wait to get mine after my final flexpay payment.

Am I missing something?

I thought IG-88's bandolier strap was more of a dirty grey/tan color rather than black. It was a tad closer to the correct color on the prototype, but still way too dark.

Cheers Wor Gar....will fix it ASAP.
I might go back and look over the thread too to find out how to insert the batteries for his head.


I must say this again,a VERY nice figure from Sideshow,and again we must make sure they hear about it through reviews on their site.With IG and again with the Battle Droid,these are unique figures and deserve the kudos that goes with their development team etc etc.

Keen to see General G now....

Nope, looks like the belts didn't get weathered... although that would be a pretty easy fix; just a bit of sandpaper and paint would dirty it right up.

Thanks for pointing that out; guess I have a little project for the weekend
