And did you say it cost you $200 to have it shipped to Kentucky back in January?

$197.63 to be exact
37 lbs (16.8 kg) is the heavier box, I want to say the statue itself was roughly half that much. I'd have to double check to be certain.

For comparison 1:1 IS Wonder Woman in a single large box
76.50 lbs (34.7 kg)
$409.26 for me.

Makes a 1:4 PF seem small, light, and cheap after these.

Thanks for your shipping cost. At the time I figured that my shipping cost to Pennsylvania would be a little more than that since I'm a little farther away.

I have a bad feeling that my shipping cost will now be significantly higher than $197.63, whenever that time comes...

Just received yet another delay email from Sideshow. Now estimated Sep - Oct 2022.

I just wish someone would simply tell me what the problem is.

Feel bad for you. It is crazy that some collectors have had this for what, over a year now?

Prime 1 released her sometime in Q4 2021 (after missing their original release window by about 15 months).

Other Sideshow customers received her in January 2022, which is when I should have received her. I've currently waited 6 months beyond every other Sideshow customer, with more months of waiting to come it seems.

At this point, it just seems like I'm getting the run around. They've had my money for over 2 years and there's absolutely no urgency to fulfill their end of the sales agreement.

I realize statues arriving in separate batches has happened before, but has anyone heard of a second batch taking an additional 9 months (or more) to arrive?????

I applied for waitlist today and was converted to preorder at sideshow. Worst case, I get my money back.

At least I know there's one other person waiting for this statue. I was starting to feel like the only person left who was still waiting (and waiting, and waiting, and waiting........)

Welcome to the island!

Well here we are in November and still I sit empty handed. The September - October estimate was just another pipe dream. Once again Sideshow's webpage still shows an estimated arrival month (October) that has already passed. I contacted Sideshow (again) and they told me they haven't received an update from Prime 1 yet, so that may indicate it's on it's way. I'd have more faith in that bit of scripted dialog if I hadn't already heard that same song and dance in April. That boy crying wolf is starting to go hoarse....

That stinks. I hope you do get it as a great piece.
