I was all about the deluxe the day they previewed the Range Trooper. That was my favorite seen in the movie. Never changed it back to the regular version when the Range Trooper was supposedly scrapped. Oh well. Hopefully one day.

Wow. I was thinking that maybe these sellouts would get a second run. But now I actually do have to wonder if they’ll do that with everything that happened with the pandemic. I’m thinking they want to get through these figures that were caught in the middle so to speak, and just move forward in order to try and get back on schedule.
Nevertheless I’m glad I pre ordered the 2 Solos and R2.
I think you hit the nail on the head when you said: "with everything that happened with the pandemic". These have hit the ground during the Pandemic, but we know they must have been fairly far into production of the individual pieces when it hit(I can only imagine how far ahead of time HT have to get prototypes made, costumes sewn, belts, boots, hands, boxes, etc, only to have to stockpile them for months on end till it's all made and ready to go, so they can get all the parts together, and into boxes to ship out.
With that in mind(As you are well aware, being a veteran of these boards), i expect that with the lack of worldwide shipping in the last twelve weeks or so, what might have happened here is that, HT might have a lot of stock on hand in HK, but SS haven't added any addition numbers to their initial order amount.
I could be wrong, but i expect this waitlisted item to come back "into stock" if and when the international embargo on most forms of mail lessens.
Personally, i have been hit financially with the lockdown, and although figures are a total luxury, i'd love to be able to splash out on the Deluxe Han. If things get back on track, i might hunt one down, but for now, i am proceeding on the assumption that they *will* see a second wave... Eventually...
Hey Username, sorry to hear about your current financial situation. You may be right--there was probably plenty of product already in the works and well into production when the pandemic hit. This could all be just the "first batch" that's coming through, and with everything still struggling to get up to speed, it might take a little longer than normal for them to get out a "second batch".
Take care bud. Hope things turn around soon for you.
I'm also in 2 minds to get this. I wonder if they'll ever do a Solo 2 ? Would be interested in peoples thoughts on that.
The #MakeSolo2Happen had some momentum there for a bit. But I'm really not sure on Solo 2.
Maybe it's one of the titles in pre-development potentially for Disney+ ??
I definitely want movies, if you're going to follow main characters like Han and OWK. I hope they both get movies. They kept shortening the OWK series to like 4 episodes; just make a movie at that point. I want to see it in theaters, not now haha, but in the future.
