Premium Format Apocalypse PF

[peedi]

I've ordered a lot from SS but this was my first FlexPay. I know FlexPays usually get shipped later so that was always my expectation here. But with the way Superman was handled I'm wondering if this will be normal or will this be shipped with Full Payers? Guess we will see.

Seeing DoFP tonight!

Talked to Jennifer on Monday at SS and she said Apoc is looking to be shipped end of June as they don't show any delays. Got on the WL on 1/14 and I'm getting pretty anxious.

Good luck on WL

That is great news. I was hoping this would come with no delays. This is going to be massive!

This is going to be massive!

Yeah! 32.25" or 30" if you get the reg

I believe it's the opposite, flex payers get stuff first.

I think Supes was the first time that has happened. I remember the tears.

First time flex was first? I flex most of my stuff and feel like I am getting it right at release (unless my last payment is just far away from the release date). I believe SSAlex offered the explanation that flex is given priority over full because flexers have already put lots of money down whereas full payers haven't.

I do recall SSAlex saying that full payers normally get dibs and they wanted to switch it up by letting flexers get it first. Someone later asked if this was their new method and she said it will be a case by case scenario.

Yeah there's no way full pay will get this first. This thing is probably coming in batches.

Examples - ie - Black Cat, and Scarlet Witch partial shipments received. They use to allow customers to email them if they wanted dibs on the first batch (ie- Psylocke, Spider-Man Comiquette) but due to the sheer size of this thing and the backlog of other PFs I suspect this will arrive over several shipments. I could be wrong, but I am glad for once Sideshow received approvals on Apocalypse and production began close to preorder date (October). According to PCS the longest period in the process is approvals, once that's done production usually only takes 3-4 months. This must've gone by swimmingly. *knock on wood the paint doesn't blow*

I gotta admit I am very surprised he is actually coming soon. Sooner than I wanting. While I really like the character and am a big X Men fan just not sure if I need a $600 statue of him...errrr...

You only live once man. I mean, I don't think marvel will ever revisit him. He would look great behind an xmen is play.

Well I've always full paid up until this Apoc as my first Flex, and I've always been first batch up until Superman. Then again I think a lot of statues I've ordered didn't really have batches in this current sense. But up until Superman my observation has been FlexPayers talking about when their last FlexPay will be while I've already had my shipping notice and am waiting for arrival. It just seemed like Flex we're always later than when I got my statues.

I kinda dig the installments so I flexed Thor, Hulk and Catwoman. Gives me 4 pieces to see if I get them 1st batch or later compared to how I was always first batch for every full pay I've done, exception being Superman, who apparently I'm not even 2nd batch although I'm a day 1 order.

BTW, XM: DoFP was AWESOME! I have one friend so far who didn't like it but it's my favorite X-Men film so far...we all know better by now but stay til the end folks!

Thy best superhero movie of all time. Storm had a small role but her scenes were awesome. The futuristic scenes paralleled and married the 2 stories together well. This movie is brilliant. Hats off to Jennifer Lawerence Michael Fassbender James McAvoy...

This is not a spoiler but according to the director something happens in this film that sparks the emergence of the next film Apocalypse. I think I know what it was.. but not sure

Ive said this 3 years ago.. THIS will be the center piece of my collection. The timing of this is perfect. Those that didnt get the EX id buy the REG if I were u before its too late.

Quote from Singer about Apocalypse movie
"You won’t feel at the end of the movie that it set up Apocalypse. What it does is it sets up possibilities. But what we’ll discover in Apocalypse is that events in this movie made that happen... Apocalypse deals with ancient mutancy. What would humans have thought mutants were? What would mutants think humans were? You’re dealing with gods and things like that. And what if one survived and what if that found its way into our world?"
