I don't get it. Reward Points were allowed on the EX Deluxe Joker maquette, but not allowed on EX Scarecrow. They better allow RPs to be used on either Wonder Woman or Harley Quinn.

I tried both on John Stewart and couldn't use either. I prefer to order through SS, but all these limits, plus the higher price for an exclusive and shipping, is making that more difficult to do.

Of course, when I contacted Sideshow just a bit ago, I was basically told they weren't provided the reason and blamed it on the manufacturer.

The two responses I got:

"I'm afraid we are not given reasons as to why some pieces are eligible for Sideshow Rewards. Any restrictions on the piece come from the manufacturer."

"Correct. We will at times see promotion/rewards restrictions on exclusive pieces due to their limited stock. This does not apply to all exclusive pieces."

I am not usually one to lament with international buyers, because of the ---- I go through when I am one, and no one cries with me But that said, no pay in full discount, price bump for the EX just because, AND can't use "SS rewards points" - note they are SS points, don't try to tell me SS doesn't control what they can be used for/on).

That's a whole lot of BS you have to deal with before even getting to import fees, taxes etc.

Ahhh, I see. When I saw the solicitation photo in the email I thought the portrait was the EX.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

LOL, know that I am crying with you from now on!

This is why I'm being so critical of the rising price issues. I bought Batgirl for $419 CAD total from Sideshow in May, shipping, taxes, and imports included. Based on today's exchange and a shipping cost of a similar sized statue I got last week, Scarecrow will roughly set me back $880 CAD. For something that's 'supposed' to be in the same series (I know, it's SuperPowers vs 2.0, but still, it's all 1/6 Bat-characters from the same company...) that's a ridiculously huge difference -- the price of another SP statue at that.

Has no one mentioned that the Exclusive ES is only 250?? I was surprised that it was So small. I got my order in directly from TH. I don't think this baby will last long...

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Yeah, a little surprised at that given JS GL was 450. Price point might have something to do with it.
