I'm in total agreement on all points. Not a big MM fan, but very tempted as this looks amazing and comparatively reasonable for the price.

That's what I've been preaching again and again ever since they unveiled their first hybrid Bruce Lee back in 2013. I was in love with the concept even before they came and did it, since I loved Hot Toys head sculpts but it's statues I want, not articulated figures.
Seems like Marilyn might help open a few more eyes, which is great.

Good morning~
Thanks for showing me so much support! After the marylin monroe upload last night the bliztway server was down due to overload. The notice was only in korean so many of you have asked why you couldn't access the page. I have now been notified of this. The korean notification means that the server is down and ill attend to this right away. For those of you who couldnt access the page last night please try again later.
Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience.

I said this jokingly on the other forum yesterday, but it turned out to be true:

An avalanche of peeps trying to pre-order that Marilyn, that's what happened.  |
That's a good sign!

I am very interested but wonder about the complaints on the Bruce Lee statue. Hate to order and it doesn't look like the prototype.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Thought I'd bump Stig's post, as I'm interested in this as well.
All the preorder-back up from delays and the port dispute *grumble grumble* likely means that my budget is tied up for the summer. Hoping to grab her on the aftermarket if chance allows it.
