  1. Those are the exclusives. The regulars just have the red masks.
  2. What do you guys think of the Vader PF?
  3. You guys had me worried, but she looks great! Sorry for the cell phone pic. The ax hand was fine, too. I was sweating the whole time.
  4. I'll definitely get it out tomorrow and check it out.
  5. lucky i emailed them about an update on the statue and i all they say it was still being held. which makes me think i'm getting a high but i don't care, i just can't wait to get my 1st SS. Yeah, I was pretty happy to get it. I went into work early today, so I left early, and happened to catch the UPS guy. I saw one at Bedrock. It's a really nice statue. I'm trying to find a stable place for it, where my lab's tail won't wreak absolute havoc on it (everything tail height ends up on the ground). I'll try to get a pic up soon, though.
  6. i know i think is the same problem that wonder woman is having plus last time i check wonder woman doesn't even have a release window on the site. Apparently, a shipment of Wonder Woman statues snuck through. I got an email, and it was requesting a response if it was ok to charge earlier than the Flex Pay. I just got the email that mine shipped. They're coming!
  7. The Apocalypse and King Hulk were really impressive statues. I saw them both unboxed at the shop. Personally, I've called a couple of times, and sent an email for the delivery issue I've had, and haven't gotten a response. I will follow up again.
  8. That was my exact question to UPS. Why would they even offer an option to restrict pick-up? How does that benefit anyone in this scenario? It doesn't benefit Sideshow, who now has to reprocess the package coming back in AND deal with me now. It doesn't benefit them, who had to lug the same package out here on each delivery attempt, wasting time and efficiency. It doesn't benefit me, because I lost what was the most likely method (given the options available) of receiving an item for which I have already paid.
  9. I WAS lucky. Now, I may not get an Exclusive at all.
  10. Well, that was a mess. I'm calm now, but wow. I got the email that my Catwoman PF was being shipped. I work in a clinical lab (I was also on-call for jury duty, and I had to check every night), and with the holidays being a hot time to be off, we were already at the minimum staff we needed, and I couldn't leave work. I was also the only trained individual that was still in town to work one set of equipment, because we have two new techs, one of whom I was training. So, UPS brought the package, and I wasn't home, they left a note that they would return the next day. . . at the exact same time (I'm fine with having to sign for it, though my office usually signs for everything). I called UPS and asked if I could just pick it up. I don't trust this driver because I saw him kick the last box, my Harley PF, when he put it down to go through the gate (and I was less than pleasant about that), as I caught him at the last second. They said that Sideshow restricted it, so that I couldn't pick it up. So, I asked if they could please try to deliver it after 2:00 pm. They told me to sign up for a online account, which wouldn't let me do anything (and had a surprising amount of information already known about me). I also left a note on the door. I also tried to get in touch with Sideshow. He brought it at 1:00 pm again, and left another note that he would try final delivery again between 10:30 and 1:00 pm. I called UPS again. No go. The third day, I got home as early as possible (1:15 pm). Missed him by 15 minutes. I call UPS again, and was told, this time, that they hold all packages that require signatures for 5 days before shipping back, and that I could now pick it up. So, this past week, I got stuck at work late every day, but I get ready to go pick it up 25 minutes from my place one day, when I get an email that it's already back at Sideshow. I reply that I still want it. No response. So, I get on the customer service live chat on Thursday, they tell me they've already refunded the money, but try Returns. So, I immediately call Returns, and leave a message, but haven't heard back. Luckily, I've at least talked with someone at Sideshow on that live chat to where I can do pick-ups, if I let them know early, so this won't happen again. I've had a lot of problems with UPS (one time, the driver scanned a package and said he delivered it to a neighbor, when I was home, in order to avoid getting in trouble for not getting the package delivered by the 10 am deadline. . . made me three hours late leaving for vacation). Does anyone know why a shipper would even be allowed the option to restrict pick-up? What does it matter if it was delivered or picked up?
  11. I've got one, too. I actually haven't displayed it yet. Waiting for the right place to put them.
  12. I was supposed to get my Catwoman PF today, but UPS is terrible.
  13. I had a dream last night that I was one of the Howling Commandos. Could have been an Agent Carter episode.
