They posted on their Facebook page that both Black Widow and Iron Patriot were currently processing and people have started receiving Black Widow so hopefully this will follow soon.
I'm in the UK so it will probably still be a couple of months before I get mine but I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out.

I was just thinking about this piece the other day. It was a close call between this and SS but I went with SS because of the base, because I was more familiar with them, and because I knew SS would be to scale with their prior releases.

This piece destroys the SS on pose though. I hope this comes out well. If I end up shipping back the SS version I'd hop on this really quickly.

With all this QC issues with sideshow, i'm going with GG now. Yes they have delays (who don't) but you get a perfect product at the end. This cap will be mine and a lot of their other statues.

I keep checking this page in anticipation for pictures and thoughts on this piece, surprised no one has it yet as a few retailers seem to have had it in stock for about a week now.
Is anyone expecting it any time soon?

It seems very few people ordered it but I have a feeling that this one will be a lot better than the SS Version. Fingers crossed anyway as I went for this GG one.

The GG Iron Patriot have very dull color that's why I ordered the SS one instead, I feel that the SS color is more movie accurate.

I think both pieces need to be seen in hand to say which has the better paint app. I've lost a lot of faith in Sideshow which is why I went with the GG version.
The SS Iron Patriot bust hasn't turned out very well paint wise, I hope the Maquette turns out better as I'd still like to order it to go with my other Iron Man Maquettes.
Will be very interested to see which turns out better.
