You can order direct from Cinemaquette or from an authorised dealer.

I can forsee a crowd of angry peasants with firey torches shouting and marching en masse to trilogy's pad to lynch him if it arrives before this xmas.

I still don't believe the EU will see this before Christmas.
I'd better board up the windows and bolt the doors just in case.

Then that's pretty incredible! I think I'm still going to hold out until I see a few actual owner photos first. The thing that excites me the most about the CM Predator is that it was sculpted by Steve Wang, who is just an incredible creator designer and sculptor. I'm hoping all of his hard work is really going to be shown off on each production piece as if it was the first, and only one in existence.
Can't wait to see the first photos pop up in this thread

Well, I've been trying to show some restraint as of late but the more I see this the more I want it. Just placed my order thru CM last night - status said 4 months. Gives me enough time to save up!

Read the post a couple of pages back. The first 500 pieces are supposed to be shipping in November.

At this point your order might be part of the second wave. I would call CM to have them shed some light on your order if I were you.

This bothers me a bit. Does this mean that I made a mistake putting down a deposit with a retailer a long time ago, and that I could potentially get a damaged or defective product after all this wait?
What exactly does "white glove treatment" mean, and is it in any way indicative of a lack of QC or attention to ones that go to retailers?

I can remember a friend of mine encountering the "white glove treatment" at an airport, flying back from Venezuela
But I don't recall him placing a deposit with a retailer a long...long time ago
