Iron Man Mk 38 "IGOR" 1:4 Scale Statue

After a long wait this piece is finally up for pre-order. Price is considerably less than I expected too.

Love this armour, although it does owe a LOT to the design of the old Warhammer 40K Terminator armour.

Is this a GG website exclusive? BBTS did not list this along with the other GG preorders they posted. Plus the GG website has a $150 earlybird $150 discount. Usually manufactures have to sell direct at retail as to not compete with their distributors.

It does say "Web Direct" on the home page so I figured it was exclusive to their site, yet their is no further mention of it on the actual order page. Appears it is an exclusive, but it would be nice to get official confirmation.

What a joke a US exclusive how's the rest of the world going to order this?

Who ever agreed to this contract at Gentle Giant needs shooting. What about all the European collectors who have bought GG pieces of the years?

Blame Marvel. They're the ones who put the restrictions on companies distributing outside of certain territories. Are you actually saying companies like GG, BD, XM etc. should say "sorry, we don't want your licence because we can't offer world wide distribution?" That's insane.

Just order through a U.S. retailer. There is a banner at the top of the home page. It's not ideal but what can we do. The price is excellent considering this is 1/4 and bound to be huge. Is there any retailer that does flexi?

If they accept PayPal, you can get the 6 months free interest on orders over $99... Then just send a monthly payment to paypal and pay it off before the 6 months is up...
