Thanks Scoop. I did see pics of Blade where he had the black shiny stripes on his head... it was a scarey picture... But so far no reports with Arnie?
Thanks.
On the contrary actually... I'm not really psyched, until I saw him in hand.
Mine came with the broken endo fingers as well though

how's the broken endo's condition bro? Is it loosey finger or totally broken?
I heard the T-800 re-issue is on September... still a rumor but it's a good news to get more bob

Hey guys, this figure is great for the most part (I prefer full range elbow articulation over aesthetics), but did anyone else receive a pair of glasses that has black paint goop covering one or both of the transparent lenses? The paint slop covering over one of the lenses is significant and is rather distracting.

That was roughly what Redford Films was charging for pre-orders, but they sold out before it came in-stock. It did seem to be the best deal around.

how much did that entire setup cost. That's the exact way I would set mine up if I had one.
Some of my camera phone Arnie shots...sorry for the poor photo quality 
So much for that, a-dev. Guess what just arrived through the door. A letter from FedEx. £33.75 to pay them for import tax. Parcelforce was cheaper ffs! I use to only pay between £19 and £21 if it caught customs.
£23.75 EU VAT

I'd say SS Cobra Trooper/Officer/Commander. Blade and Joker gloves have 3 raised lines on the side.

I was getting that every time when I was ordering from XL-Shop, dropped them after a bit, got a bit predictable.
That was from Sideshow Collectibles. I should have said which puzzles me the most, the T800 came through fine with no custom fees but Iron Man Battle Damage got billed for customs. I don't understand that. 2 from Sideshow spread out over a month, 1 gets through 1 gets caught. I've always thought customs was screwy. It's inconsistent. Plus sadly on the back of the invoice it has the full price of the item. :/
Even with other Hong Kong shops with Parcelforce, even that was a hit or a miss. Sometimes I got caught, other times many got through.

Pain in the ar$e isn't it. There goes the SS rewards points. Just doesn't make sense for me to order from SS anymore if this is the way its gonna be. Well other than the exclusives.
Now its another thing added to my 'annoying' to do list. Pay that.
The only reason why I decided to go and try Sideshow is because,
1: They get their stuff usually a lot later than everyone else. 95% of the time anyway. So if there is any quality control issues from Hot Toys at least it'll be most likely fixed by the time it reaches Sideshow.
2: Kind of comes under 1 but with it being later I wouldn't have to pay when the likes of Hong Kong shops or batch 2's.
3: The ability to cancel your pre-order with no cancelation fees.
4: As you said the points system.
Why is it the good places you end up either suck it up or go somewhere else... you can never find a good place that has the above and get the perks of by passing import duties.
Plus so far Sideshow has been the cheapest for me for shipping that has tracking. Other places like Toys2 have had shipping prices like Sideshow but you don't get tracking unless you go the more expensive route. :/

Those extra charges from Fed-ex and everything which I got lumped with when I got my Mystique Ex were why I cancelled my order for this with sideshow and went with OSB because in total, it worked out cheaper. Can't remember how much, somewhere in the region of £10-£20 I think. Either way it was enough for me to change who I ordered it with!
