It does appear Sideshow can knock $25 off just about anything. When this fails they can throw in free US shipping. When this fails, they offer free Global shipping.

I wonder how long before they decide the 1000's of Wonder Woman clogging up the warehouse need to go?
I'm holding out for some serious incentives for that piece, given the portrait paint app disappointment

Once I had the face painted I love the piece and am completely happy with it. I'd say if you can get it on sale be worth it having someone lined up to paint it.

From my collection thread when I had it done.

Gal Gadot Wonder Woman Premium Format 1:4

After





Working with the artist goal was to the face to share a greater resemblance to Gal which I think he accomplished. I know it can be controversial to mess with pieces, but what use to be a 90% perfect piece for me is 100%.

Yes, he was excellent to work with giving updates.

I was thinking of the more recent Wonder Woman PF

Sideshow is already trolling pretty hard by not giving out codes like they used to.

I think Sideshow might be looking for a more interactive approach with their customers instead of just throwing out codes to people just looking for discounts. Let's be honest about that. I'm sure there are budgets for giveaways so those expenses can be managed and maybe written off. I bet they are struggling with how to improve viewership on their live shows and get more traffic through their online communities. My feeling is they are tasking this to the employees who may be in a difficult position to make big decisions with little internal influence. It should be a strategy from their management team. But what do I know. I'm just a collector too.
