Sideshow Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Statues

That's a good idea. Maybe the could, I don't know, send an exclusive e-mail to those customers inviting them to do so?

nope. When the first 500 people bought their Leo statue. They should have gotten a message at the check out screen that read
"Hello valued customer, To show our gratitude for your enthusiasm and support of these statues, we would like you to know that that Michael, Donny and Raph are going to be announced soon. Would you like us to charge your card when they become available thus securing your Exclusive edition for each statue? Select Yes to do so or select No to move on about the rest of your day"

Besides, I think we've established that the exclusive isn't so exclusive considering that sideshow sent emails out to people who haven't even gotten the Leo Ex (such as myself) I also got an "exclusive" order a few weeks back to order their predator bust....I have never owned or expressed any interest in the predator statue line) That could have been an email that went to an actual fan of the stuff. They just send the emails out when it suits them.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind getting these emails since I can pick and choose what I want and secure my EX statue. But I don't, for one second, view these emails as being some sort of charitable act from sideshow

Calls corporate marketing 101 a conspiracy theory? I'm out.

Sorry, I didn't realize your point was that SS is a business. If you're looking for validation on that theory:

That wasn't my point. All I am saying was I appreciated some members for posting the link for the invite to preorder when I could have missed out on. I don't see any issues with people posting links that can help out others who may not have gotten a chance to order something.

I agree with this logic.... If I remember correctly collectors (probably scalpers) are the ones that thru the biggest hissy fit when Storm White Costume sold out. Some people received the email link in time to preorder while others didn't.

I don't see the big deal of sharing the link with others after you've secured your order. The ones that screwed up the coupon process were the *******s complaining about others using the coupons... They ruined it for everyone.

Sometimes the early bird should get the worm. And btw I did receive an invite for Mikey. I can thank ONE kind collector for posting the link early saving 2 hrs out of my day.

All I'm saying is I hate when people ruin a good thing by taking advantage of it.

Actually it's the ones that ***** and moan that others received a good thing that ruin it for everyone else...

 

[Aphotic]

Would like them to keep it invite, next ones should be if you ordered both amirite?! Lol

I agree..... companies that are much smaller like Gaming Heads allows for this as well.And even reserves the same number statue for you. I lucked out and got both EX's Pre-ordered. And yes I will be displaying the colored bandanas. No doubt some flippers got a hold of them as well....

That being said flippers who bought the EX white version storms and Widows didn't make much if ANY off flipping those statues.

I figured it wouldn't last the night

 

[spidey42005]

Well hopefully everyone that wanted the EX Mikey on here got him!

With that when do you think will see Donatello or Raphael go up for order?! All the tension between everyone has me worried about missing out on the other two EX versions.

Probably at least one more this year, they seem to be doing a PO per quarter

 

[JediSword]

I heard all four will be up before the end of the year as per Alex

Wow, the entitlement here is kinda gross. "I deserve this thing I want more than other people that want it because... reasons?"

I secured one yesterday from the invite, but the fact that these sold out before they were even available to the public seems pretty cheap and unfair to me. That's my opinion. I'm going to leave now.

Frankly they should just make it available when the regs go up and eliminate all the BS. The End.

I secured an Ex yesterday afternoon and glad I did.

I can only hope QC comes through for us because if I receive one of the four damaged, not sure what I'll do.

I like the email thing once in a while. I see pros and cons of both tho.

I would like it if every email sent out by SS made it into every inbox for every person it sent it to. Prob is some get it and some don't. For what ever reason. That can cause some waves. I want this set so badly and even though I got an email I was still monitoring this site for news on the drop.

I'm kind of curious...very low EX statues free shipping costs double points on the reg versions...did Sideshow really think these wouldn't sell and just low balled all the numbers with extras to encourage the sales?
