It's because of th hair process. Someone has to literally glue it in. It was a no brainer to release a 2.0 with sculpted hair version and they would make more money and have more happy people. This is their experiment or peeing contest with Inart in my opinion.

How long before the first ebay listing? More importantly, how much will it be listed for? I'm guessing $2K.
You would think so. InArt definitely has the better business model - open PO for a few days and that's that. Don't see Anakin being done by them anytime in the near future though; HT got us by the balls on this one.

Then people won’t want it and the people that got it will complain that it’s not as limited.

Did anyone who got one also get artisan Joker? I wasn't able to get a Anakin but I got a Joker. Just wondering if they made it harder if you already got one lol. Hopefully they do a sculpted Anakin. I'm at least happy I got Joker.
Same here. Just kept getting taken to the preview page instead of the queue.
Absolutely a contest with InArt. Probably why they made more Jokers than Anakins as well.

I’m not even an Anakin fan… never have been…so…..I don’t even care that I never had a chance at 7000+ in queue and lost sleep last night in anticipation…
I don’t even like Anakin stuff
You know there’s a problem when even Anakin - the Chosen One - can’t get a figure of himself.

It's different for this since they're trying out rooted wool hair. They also have a million figures in production on the backburner. The benifit to INART is that they only have a few figures in production at once. Lets them do a bigger number of quality rooted hair.
Hot Toys on the other hand has 50 Stormtroopers and 30 Iron Man figures taking up their production line. They don't feel like bumping up the production number and putting more manpower into this.

I can't believe I actually got one, especially with my technical issues. I've actually checked the orders page on my account several times to make sure it's real.
Moderator note: Please don't post your order numbers. It will not end well for you.

HE'S BACK! How are you?
I joined the Sideshow queue the last time I was here and finally got in.
Okay not really but man that was a process.
Alright, and you?
My wife is a sweetheart and managed to get hers, it's her fav character and she's gifting it to me for 2024 Christmas. Wish everyone all the best, it's been a blast for the past month or so on this thread. Don't forget there's the Dewback!

Some were talking in another SW thread about you being away. Some were worried. Happy your back!

It should have just been a lottery system like they did with the D100 Iron Man. You get picked randomly and have a smooth transaction with their website checking out since you don't have 12000 people trying to get in at once.
