Black. I asked them about it about a month ago and they said they already shipped the first batch and that I am in the second batch. If they would just give me a proper ETA I would feel a lot better.

Well I guess if you're going to order from Spec, you really need to order day 1 with them, to at least secure their first allotment. The waiting can be so painful after seeing so many people receive theirs. I did order a few pieces from them, as I was unaware there was a store 8-10 minutes away from me at the time that sold their pieces (or 2 minutes away from my workplace). I felt so stupid when I finally learned about Sugo
Note Sugo has since moved a little further away from me.

Sometimes the only way to learn is the hard way. I don't really hate Spec, but I didn't know that they were last in line. Spec has been good to me in terms of customer service, but to this day the Black Widow page still shows 4th quarter 2022 and I think that's messed up.

BBTS and Secret Compass may beg to differ. And I am not criticizing any of them. Sometimes being a middle man waiting in line OR waiting for product which is being shipped by boat is the cost of buying these pieces. I think there are definitely ways to get some of these pieces faster but you are going to pay for that speed.

Where would you rate Sideshow on the speed list?

On their own product, pretty fast. For another company's product, probably in the middle. I think they can get bigger shipping containers (or at least more frequent containers) so they can get more product in faster.
A lot of this is just based on cruising these chats though so it is subjective.

I wouldn't be surprised if they're relying on another company to bring in pieces for them. Especially Secret Compass seems to receive pieces for many brands very late.

Having received an email from Queen Studios, i decided to take the survey. As posted above, the survey is 100% focused on half-body busts.
Since i am not into bust's, i answered 'No' to all the questions.
Since QS have offered a Captain Marvel bust in the past, why offer another one?
If Black Widow had been on the list, QS would have gotten a 'Yes' out of me ;D
