Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

Right now, shipping shows as $112 and I don't expect that to stick, but I don't want them to all of a sudden take my money if shipping triples in price once it's ready to ship.
Not when they launched the new site. With the old site when a waitlist converted then they charged your card right away.

Now you have a 2 week thinking period to confirm it. Also when they want to ship the item you need to confirm your adress first. Not 100% sure but if you disagree with the shipping quote you can cancel the order within 24 hours and you can keep your NRD.

Okay. I think the last time I ordered something that wasn't a WL item was the Predator 2 wall statue. I'm fairly certain they didn't warn me before taking final payment. I only ask because I don't keep much money in my checking account on purpose. I hope they will at least notify me before final payment is automatically taken.

Yes, they should now notify you before final payment.

That's why you should always and only pre-order with a credit card. Nothing worse than having your liquid cash pulled out of your bank account when you don't expect it.

Yep, good call. For some reason, I thought I couldn't switch my paypal method with them, but I just switched it to CC, instead of checking.

Cool

Came across this hungry terminator searching youtube.

First thought the guy was remoting it out of the vending machine.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Now that Prime 1 is doing XL Aliens to pair with the XL PREDATORS, I'd much rather hold off on this T2 Endoskeleton and get him in the XL SIZE so they all match in scale. If they just reproduce this smaller reg 1/3 here and do a XL version, that would be ideal. Anybody think that's something they'd do, and if so..... who's also interested?

I'll do 3 XL Predator statues, (JUNGLE HUNTER, BERSERKER & WOLF) and 3 XL ALIENS, (BIG CHAP, WARRIOR & DOG) and then a XL T2 ENDOSKELETON and I'd be done. All my favorite Creatures in the same scales. I have a feeling if I go through with this smaller version, they'll probably reveal a XL sized one and make me regret pulling the trigger.

XL is just another name for prime 1 oversizing their statues. This 1/3 endoskeleton is likely over scaled. So I doubt their would be an XL. This would be the 'XL' itself. Similar to the predator 1/3 line, all technically 'XL'.

Hey what's up man.... yeah I'm aware of the XL meaning over scaled 1/3's, but this Endo I thought was just a regular 1/3 that would pair well with the old Prime 1 Aliens. I got to look into the dimensions again, but I'm pretty sure it will look tiny next to the XL 1/3 Jungle Hunter for example. I know the Endo should be shorter than the JH too.
