A figure shipping late! That's NEVER happened before!!! ((shock))

 

[Darkseed]

I stop by occasionally when bumped to the top hoping but still nada. Eh well, it'll show up eventually.

Hopefully it's delay (which it's not technically late until March 22nd) is a result of refinement.

The Teaser said This Winter. If it comes out any later it's overdue.
Oh well, I have waited for a great Reeve figure since the day I saw the movie at the cinema, so I can wait a little longer

Yeh I know, but I really do not see this being on schedule.

I'm just curious, not complaining or anything, but is this the longest it has taken a confirmed and announced figure to be shown? If not, what was the longest wait for a figure?

 

[OSCORP]

They are making damn sure they get it right i bet.

Backlash will/would be epic.

IIRC Leia as Boushh took over a year from announcement to shipping.

Avatar announced last comic con (09) without official specs. Rather them take time to get Supes right then rush to meet an announced deadline.

 

[OSCORP]

Still, i am just glad it's happening still. I think a lot of us forget that. A year ago this was still a dream figure. Now we know it's happening!

Grail figure for me.

Bruce Lee, DX04, was released 3 years after he was announced.

 

[Marcus Wright]

I hope IT happens at least this year.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Oh I can still see it announcing this year but, in hand this year? Hell no.


Shame, I was looking forward to this releasing around March/April.

 

[OSCORP]

I still think xmas is a possibility.. IF we get some pics soon.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

That would be great, but I don't see it happening in reality.

 

[blakus939]

It's official... I'm no longer coming back to this thread until it, or another of similar variation is titled "Hot Toys Superman 1978 Film Version Official Pics and Specs"!

 

[martin-el]

Seconded....

 

[space ace]

Hope it's worth the wait...the Indy doesn't look so hot

 

[Jay1138]

Frusterating thing is, Hot Toys surprises us with unexpected 1:6 figures all the time. But then make announcements of particular products and take FOREVER showing anything ie: Col. Hans Landa.

Hope it's worth the wait...the Indy doesn't look so hot

But...but...Arnie Kim can do no wrong.

 

[batscot]

I never realized Jor-El 'hung' to the right.
