True, but it also means it will not display well on a shelf of B&W statues. For me, this is extremely unfortunate and disappointing.

Same here! And I've noticed a number of DC statues that many vendors have had instock for weeks are still in preorder status at BBTS. I know someone that got their statue almost a month ago.

I actually emailed them about this. I've noticed their pre-orders are taking longer than most other companies across the board.

They responded that they get some things in stock faster than other retailers at times.

I haven't noticed this, so I responded by cancelling a number of other pre-orders I had and moving them to other companies. Sorry, but I'm not going to continue to wait on them when I see other's getting their stuff, especially when I can get some of it from amazon shipped express for free.

Same on both counts. This is ridiculous. Don’t know if I’ll ever PO with them again.

That's what I did. Cancelled a preorder I had with them since February and ordered from another place and got it within a week.

I love their discount prices and flat $4 shipping for anything over $100. I used to order from them often many years ago but this recent experience with DC related pieces is disappointing. I previously understood the delays because of covid but other places have had their stuff for a while now. Maybe their stuff is stuck in customs. Who knows.
