Interesting how BW shows only a July 2020 release on their (Sideshow) website yet mine got pushed back to August as well. At this rate Hot Toys might as well release the figure to coincide with the film premiere in November.

As for CM, a friend told me his Deluxe version he ordered from Alter Ego should arrive by Friday yet Sideshow doesn't seem to have a their newest batch in yet. BBTS has the Regular version instock but the Deluxe is still a pre-order.

Weird.

Just received the delay email from Sideshow.
Final payment: 09/15/2020

Some on YouTube already have Black Widow and have posted Unboxing/Review videos. I guess those collectors buy direct from Japan and receive batch 1 figures.

My Captain Marvel purchased from Sideshow shipped directly from Japan? ..i had to wait many months to receive it?

You can get first batch ordering from HK to get real early. If you watch Justin he promotes ToysWonderland as one of those places that offer the first batch ordering. My Hawkeye deluxe is being delivered today.

I have looked into Toys Wonderland. The fee needs to be paid up front. Atleast it is possible to snag a batch 1 or batch 2. While the initial price is higher than Sideshow, other saving come into play such as lower shipping. Like you mentioned, not having to wait months and months and months after release to receive the figure.

Black Has shipped. Not for Sideshow customers like myself. We have to wait for ours, which is normal.
There are unboxing/review videos on YouTube.

Lucky you.

My final payment has been pushed back to September 15, 2020
It could be pushed back again, like it was with Captain Marvel ?

Sideshow as you are probably aware receives batches.
Captain Marvel batches appeared to dry up for a while, probably because of COVID-19 (this is a guess).

Sideshow Collectibles just dropped me a new email. Black Widow has been delayed again, until October. Hey-ho.
All these delay's simply mean i am unable to pre_order anything new.

Black Widow is 'in stock' at Sideshow Collectibles
It made sense to drop them an email asking to ship my order now, and not wait until the 20th of October.
