Has anyone here ordered this from either Sideshow or Secret Compass? Just wondering why it keeps getting delayed.

I PO'd @ Sideshow and latest notice says Feb-April 2023. I obviously don't know exactly why it gets delayed a year beyond when some here received it but by my birthday wish is that it is because Prime1 is paying attention to all of the feedback and adjusting the sculpt to more like the proto (better haircut and paint depth I sincerely hope). Fingers crossed but Breath not held. Cheers JC

Maybe they are redoing the hair.

It could be a good thing. I canceled mine.

I highly boubt that. That would pee off a lot of collectors who have it already.

It would be great though! I.m still waiting on mine too

Yet they don't seem to mind that it will seriously pee off the many shelling out $3k+ by releasing a prod piece so far off from proto in the first place so not sure that logic holds up.

It's odd to me that certain people get it so far in advance though. I didn't really pay attention to where they bought it (P1 direct vs. some other reseller that had it that early on) but wonder if somehow someway these early in-hand posts were from an early channel and somehow not a final release? I've seen this type of thing before it seems. Otherwise it doesn't make sense it wouldn't have been more widely released last summer with Multiple in hand pics posted from a wider variety of customers who bought it and the usual YouTube Jockeys ringing up views with their obligatory unboxing and review videos. Something doesn't add up.

I guess we'll see huh?

Cheers JC

I think they try and get out all the Exclusive versions out first, and then the none exclusive ones to follow.

Due to covid, i think this has also delayed it all too.

The funny thing with that is that P1 kinda did that with their T-800 Endoskeleton. Earlier releases had the lean issue that people were complaining about and then they decided to fix/modify this with their later batches.

Maybe "fixed" is not the wrong choice of word :P. The pose was modified for sure during the later batches. Sorry to hear yours had issues still. I was lucky that mine turned out okay.

I have to say, I think PRIME 1 STUDIOS are my favourite!

I think this is my 2nd favourite peice from them.

Yeah they kinda went all lazy on the hair which was a let down but overall I love it!
