Sideshow Masters of the Universe Collection

[koolkollectibleskhai]

You guys do understand that these are painted by hand right? I've spotted one or two paint bleeds but thats' to be expected as ya know...they are painted hand.

I know I will get flamed but the things some here return stuff for is just silly to me. That shield is not broken as it just he attachment that came loose and could be easily made 100% perfect as that is how it was attached in the first place. Those aren't really blemishes and to me more look like just a bit too much paint and I would not ask for a return. Expecting high standards is fine but I think folks need to appreciate that these things are hand painted by a human and certain imperfections are bound to happen.

I cant even get the end of the strap to plug into the slot in the shield itself to glue it back in. If I could, I would've glued it on the first day. But since I can't peg it in, there's no alternative than to get a replacement.

As per Sideshow's FB Page:

"NYAH! Less than 15 pre-orders remain of the Skeletor Exclusive Statue!"

If you were on the fence, I would take the leap now before he get's waitlisted - up to you

I dont get it. The Edition Size is 2500, and they say only 15 preorders left. But the ES for He-Man is 1250, and it's still available to buy?! Is Skeletor somehow that much more popular than He-Man?!?

 

[KingB]

Skeletor has a killer sculpt.

 

[GavilanOrd]

Looks like He-Man is about to head the way of the waitlist as well.

Skeletor has always been more popular...

 

[koolkollectibleskhai]

Hmm, strange. Either way, I didnt want to miss out so put the preorder in using a $20 discount code. Only little saving, but better than nothing. Use $29 in rewards on Evil-Lyn too to go with the $102 in rewards used on He-Man. Overall a pretty good saving on all three. Hopefully they announce the next one soon because it'll take another 12 months to release!

 

[Gravemist]

I assume they'll probably save it for the 12 Days of Christmas reveals.

My He-Man statue is still in Hong Kong. I pre-ordered back in February, UPS have had it since 3 Nov but say it's not been sent due to not being enough room on the planes! I've not heard of this before. Starting to get a little concerned it's gone missing. Very, very frustrating.

oh really? it won't stretch at all?

I'm thinking about getting this. Do the coupons for in-stock items work on him yet? Might drop some reward points for He-Man and Skeletor if not. It's weird, I'm not a huge MotU fan but the statues look really nice, it's worth getting?

if you have a code it should work....I'm not a huge MotU fan or a statue guy but I like He man a lot. nice piece of art for sure! Better jump on the EX before it goes on WL!

The only reason i jumped on the line because of Skeletor....if he didn't look this good i would've pass.

The strap material definitely won't. But it's more that the diamond end piece can't slot back into the hole in the shield.

 

[JonWes]

Love this thing. I really don't know whether to display the sword or axe. I think I'm going to skip the cape.

 

[Iam_Dabatman]

Nice pics JonWes! The wait is unbearable.

 

[KingGrayskull]

Ok, changed my mind and have to get this. Unfortunatly the excl. is already on WL. How are the chances of the WL comming through? I have never before been on a WL for a SSC piece. HT usually do convert, but do SSC pieces do aswell?

Well, looks like I may miss out on this fella, too. This year has me bumming hard.

It's been waitlisted for only a day or two, so your chances are pretty good.

 

[Black Label Society]

displaying this guy without that lame ass cape is the way to go. i don't mind the axe, but i prefer the classic look of the sword sans the cape. very nice piece.

this line reminds me of the SW Mythos line....not bad SS, not bad.

You know, Sideshow, just when I think you couldn't possibly be any dumber, you go and do something like this…and totally redeem yourself!
