They say never keep a queen waiting. Especially The Queen of Blades, ruler of The Zerg Swarm. I had this since March 2016 from Shioktoys. But I was waiting to get her a custom casing. It's been more than 2 years, I never even looked at her, was beginning to worry if she turned yellow or mould grew on her. But wow, I Just opened the box just now, and it's still got that statue fume, the box was crisp & dry like the day Sam Ko helped me pack it back in the box neatly. Most other boxes I had would've had maybe some foxing or mould.She's one bony chick! Usually I'd grab them by the waist or hips to remove from the foam box. All those little sharp jutting exterior bones around the hips made it hard. Was afraid I might break something. Anyways, the plastic bags wrapped around her yellowed, have to toss those. She looks great. Haven't assembled the bony wings yet. #loveKerrigan

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Strange, I have never got one.

Did you get it because it was your first SS purchase??

It is a welcome kit box set according to demonhunter

I've been ordering from SS for a few years now, usually get the coupon/promotional stickers on the box, not sure why i received this, maybe they were being sent at random or probably got lucky.

The box was labeled as "Sideshow Welcome Kit Box Set." I assumed Sideshow was sending it out to first time customers. Because it was the first time I bought directly from Sideshow.

But now after asking some people, not all first time buyers get them, and some people who are not first time buyers are getting it randomly. So, my latest conclusion....it's pretty random depending on luck.

Really didn't expect to get one myself.

Maybe you might get one box later like CrimsinWing did.
