BBTS and Secret Compass are sold out. But, Midtown Comics seems to have it available and they're in NY. No clue if they're operating right now with the crap going on, but it's at least available on their site.

Their site just says expect a shipping delay. I wonder how long. Probably better to call them.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Thank you for this. I believe I saw this but passed because “cheapest” shipping is $73.20 + $54.66 tax so that puts it at $737.86 for me. Idk i think i was hoping for atleast somewhere with cheaper shipping.

Yeah, it's the only one I could find. There are literally none on eBay right now either.

Shipping is always a -----. With the amount we pay for these pieces I can't believe they don't have better shipping prices for working so closely with their carriers.

@Infinite Glory - If you got on the waitlist I would just be patient for the ex. I think a handful will eventually fall through (they always do b/c of peoples credit cards) especially now with people not working.

A cool observation regarding Sabretooth's eyes. The paint applied is not only glossy, but has a "pearly" reflectiveness quality, "capturing" light, it gives the impression that Sabretooth has luminescent pupils! Makes the portraits come alive, and the "eyes/pupils" actually follow your gaze as you pan across the statue. A wickedly cool effect for this beastly masterpiece.

I don't know if SS planned the effect, as Wolverine lacks the same glossy paint finish, and the result is flat. But I really dig the depth this paint app provides, giving life to the work.

Yep his eyes are painted to perfection. I do wish they put more gloss on the tongue. Just a minor complaint but it's such a great statue. I look at it every day with him posed towards Wolverine PF and I just smile.

I was thinking of adding a bit of gloss to his mouth, especially on the standard long haired portrait.
