Same here slept on her and ended up paying Evil Bay prices. Now I have Thanos Endgame coming and will pair them three up similar.
I’m curious, do you know if she came by boat or plane? If by boat she might be stuck in the same port as everything else. I actually have a figure coming from overseas too and it zipped right through customs yesterday. But it came by way of Hawaii so didn’t have to pass customs in LA.Mine unfortunately seems to be stuck in customs in Los Angeles...haven't gotten an update since last week and it was slated to be delivered today.
Ugh, that's fine. I don't mind the wait, as long as it gets here before I leave for vaca in 2 weeks!

Couldn?t stand waiting on a waitlist conversion... fortunately found one on Mercari. It was pretty pricey but I was able to offset it by selling a couple of old figures.
Don?t regret it at all.

Well, that was a pleasant surprise. I received my Gamora today! It went from in "ISC Los Angeles" to "Out for delivery."
Anyways just unboxed her and I'm quite pleased with the purchase! Can't believe how rare she ended up being.
A big shout out to Omega9300 for helping me track her down all the way to the other side of the globe! Thank you for your assist bro!
A few unboxing photos. Sorry for not removing the plastic around her face, but she's going back in the box! So no need to take off something I'm just gonna put right back on.
And yeah, those peeps who say rooted hair sucks, I feel ya! Just trying to tame some wild strands was annoying and I'm not even displaying her yet! At the same time I do think with the proper time and effort rooted hair > sculpted hair.

Yesssssss!
Congratulations gmoney, I?m so glad you like Gamora!!!
It was a pleasure helping you in your search for her.
Man that headsculpt looks phenomenal, even through that plastic!
And yeah I would say that the only thing that is not perfect about her (IMO) is the hair. But that said, I still think it looks pretty good right out of the box. I didn?t spend much time messing with her hair before taking some pics and reboxing her but I have seen pictures of her in this forum and elsewhere in which people have spent al little time manipulating her hair and she looked amazing!!
Any way congrats again man, you landed a figure that people are hunting for pretty furiously. If they don?t make another Gamora for the next Guardians movie the eBay prices for this version are going to go through the roof![]()
Nice gmoney! That was very nice of Omega to help a fellow forum freak out! She's a great figure indeed! Just boxed mine up too.
I'm surprised there aren't more Gamora figures out, given her importance in IW/EG (she had the second most screen time in IW, IIRC).
Congrats, g$! Glad she finally arrived safely. So, have you started planning the expansion........of your closet? It must be getting quite crowded in there.![]()
I think I may need to start organizing it to accommodate the growing boxes!![]()
People always accommodate their dolls.... but they often overlook their box collection. You cannot have one without the other.
The bane of my life ! I even have some bigger boxes for easier transportation of the smaller boxes !!!
I think if I ever throw this hobby in it'll because of the boxes !![]()
Yeah gmoney I think you are almost certainly correct about another version of Gamora being produced for the GOTG vol 3. However that will be quite a while from now. Hopefully they will give her an outfit similar to her later comic book appearance.

Thanks Zurdo! She's no Captain Marvel, but she'll have to do I guess.
