Good to know. I'll put the priority on that Christmas version.

I had pre ordered the original Harley Bombshell from a company that ended up going out of business before she shipped. I did find her at a LCS, however but didn't take her home because of a couple of small issues that didn't agree with me. With that said, I'm always in for a Tim Miller sculpt and am so happy to have this chance to get the variant. JUST PRE-ORDERED.

Still regret not getting the first one but this will have to do for now.

I just saw a guy sell 20 of em on eBay within 2 hours.

I normally like to get something under retail value, but I suggest if anyone wants the Harley, or is a completionist, I recommend you pre-order where you can.

Really?

You will learn that you can't always count on pre-orders. Allocations happen, which is what happened to me.

I had pre-ordered my Harley at GameStop, and they haven't done bombshells since Batgirl. I know they actually have a limited run of 5200. I remember Harley selling out within a few weeks of release, after that Black Canary was an instant sell out, and wouldn't surprise me to see Holiday Harley go out too.

Here's a handy dandy way of circumventing allocations:

Order directly from DC. Sure, you might find retailers that carry it for less, but then there can be return issues or missed orders due to nasty allocations.

Not much help if you live outside the US, though, as DC doesn't ship internationally.

Keep in mind that if a statue arrives broken DC Collectiables makes you pay for the shipping to send it back to them for a replacement.

Can get expensive fast if they send you Bombshell Supergirl for example with her common broken nametag due to poor packaging by DC. I ended up sending it back twice before I got one without a broken nametag, so it cost me an extra $30 in shipping fees. After that fiasco, I pretty much buy all my DC stuff from BBTS.com

Yeah my exchanges were pretty easy and quick at GameStop. Shame they didn't do the rest. They had them for 99.99 for a good solid 8 months.
