Hot Toys POWER LOADER

[pjam]

So the newsletter didn't have a pending date for this thing. I guess it's not coming in the next 30 days. Maybe November? I hope not December -- that's a brutal month as it is.

HT announced on their NL the PLs will ship in Oct. Prolly to Asia first... so I figure Nov, Dec here.

Ay carumba -- Dec!!!

I may have to put this out to pasture...



Yeah, right. No frikkin' way!

 

[FACEBOX]

Hurray!

I was hoping for December because I'm moving now and have no "play money" to spend.

Too bad it will have to go up against a cardboard cut out of the Alien Queen.


Hint, hint Hot Toys.

LOL! Cardboard Alien Queen! You'll have to post a picture of that.

I sure do.

It sucks that I'll have to resort to cardboard as a placeholder, but ... you know... desperate times cause for desperate measures.

Just got my email notice for billing my last Flexpay will be moved from October 5th, to November 5th, and that the PL will ship within a week of that payment.
November it is!

Damn, I'd hate to cancel mine, but I might just have to if it's coming that soon.

2nd week of November it is. Brutal month for me but December is looking better, purchase load wise, thanks Les. You Rock.

Damnit I almost wish it didnt ship till January

wonder what else SS will ship at the last moment

 

[JediMike71]

Yeah, I got that same e-mail from Sideshow today about the month delay for the Power Loader. I had called them earlier today to try and get a more accurate shipping quote, and that's when they told me about the delay. Well, at least I have made my first two payments, and only have that last one left! I'm really looking forward to getting this HUGE and exciting set to add to my HT ALIENS collection! The delay stinks....I had set aside the money for that payment to hit at the end of this week. Now I gotta be sure to have the funds there on or around November 5.

 

[abake]

This is actually good news for me, gives me a chance to get my fiances in order...

 

[The ill Jedi]

Although I wanted this like now, the delay is a welcome one.

 

[screamingmetal]

A greater delay would've been fantastic, but I'm incredibly thankful to Sideshow for letting the word out this early on when we can expect this to ship. Helps me plan financing this more accurately.
I think I might be able to cover this, but I may have to get it from a retailer cheaper in order to afford it so soon.
No way am I canceling this!

 

[The Chaver]

Although I wanted this like now, the delay is a welcome one.

Yeah I'm still working on paying off my Dog Alien maquette.Now that I know the PL won't come out till Nov./Dec.,I can pretty much have the maquette payed off for sure way before then and have just enough cash for the PL when it arrives.

 

[JediMike71]

Yeah, the delay will help me to pay off some things here that other board members have been holding for me. I hope to do that soon.

 

[DBoz]

I can't wait for this to come out. It is going to be the single most awesome 1/6 thing in my collection. A position formerly held by the bbi F-15 cockpit (which is still pretty damn cool). Nothing will be able to hold a candle to this. Not ED-209, Not the Terminator Endo (although it's close)... Nothing!

Thanks for that release list Dassy. But are those dates only for Asia, and not us in the U.S.A.? Let me know.

Yeah, Dboz, hey Chris, I agree with you about the power loader! I've never had a HUGE 1/6 scale piece in my collection, and I know that this PL will definitely be the "crown jewel" of my collection!
