It's like some of Sideshow's nonsense. And I'm hoping they get her right the first time and it doesn't take a second version like with Tracer. However, ordering just to be on the safe side.
They'll have to make her mech and I'm very curious how much that will run...

All of their statues say that. Barring the initial release of Tracer, which had issues, all of their statues have come out closely resembling the protos you see in their pictures. Blizzard currently has an excellent track record regarding QC.

I've only ordered Tracer and I looked back at her page and didn't see that statement. As long as there is no crazy 1st edition vs 2nd edition I'm fine. I managed to get a 2nd edition Tracer thanks to whoever updated her thread here.

Yeah i didn't get any notification on this and i don't think anyone got a warning it was even coming lol.
I only knew because i saw a video on one of my Youtube subs that said it was available now weirdly....
I haven't ordered this one....not really a Windowmaker player and i haven't got $180 kiciking around at the moment, i'd like her just to complete the set and i do appreciate the pricing Blizzard are doing on these. I'll pick her up eventually, like Reaper i think she'll be available for a while yet.

I have their Arthas, Kerrigan, Illidan, and Grom, no problems at all with any of their quality.
I assume they added that little bit as a precaution from dealing with previous statues.

Illidan, Grom, Reaper have all been great, only some breakages on Grom and illidan but I've never heard anyone complain about paint issues.
The only paint issues were with the first released Tracers face which wasn't great but they rectified that pretty quick and Tracer also released pretty flawless.
So i wouldn't have any worries with Blizzards quality.

I like how you folks understand how great the pricing on these statues are because not everyone who gets these comprehend how competitive these prices are.

Does Blizzard Gear charge right away for their pre-orders? I know the digital games I've pre-ordered were charged right away, but I can't find anything about their Gear stuff.

They do. http://gear.blizzard.com/collectibles-faq
I don't know where this page is buried on the site itself, but I managed to find it through google. They didn't charge immediately when I pre-ordered Tracer though, so I wonder when that changed and why.

Did you pre-order Tracer or get on the second run? I believe the second run was in stock at the time of ordering. I don't like the full payment on pre-order since release isn't till 4th Quarter. But hopefully they will get Widowmaker right and there won't be any concerns.
