I couldn't get online when she was supposed to go up for preorder. I tried ordering her an hour later on Tweeterhead, and it said she was sold out. Went and looked at the TH page again about an hour later because I couldn't remember if they'd posted the ES and saw she was available. Put my order in and it went through! I wasn't even aware of the website issues until I read about it later on FB. 
I still would have ordered her from Sideshow, but it's nice to able to get in on the $25 off and free shipping from Tweeterhead. I always order directly from them if I can.

Now we just have the long wait until November of next year. Hopefully 2021 will be much better than this year has been.

Happy I am. With all my reward points, it’s like I have free shipping and taxes after all.
And I'll have miss Kitty, even if I didn't really care for it in first place.
Nice try, little dude, but sorry, you can't get the part. |

That opinion seemed to surface when Sideshow did movie pieces that produced horribly. Compaines like Tweeterhead, Prime 1, etc are coming through with more accurate pieces. I have gone from comic to movie pieces.

Nice. I never quite understood that opinion either. A great statue is a great statue, regardless of whether it's a comic or movie representation.

The thing that gets me irritated is why SS is not listing the edition number. I like to know how large is the edition number before i make my purchase.

I don't particularly like movie statues.
For example:
Gal Gadot plays Wonder Woman today and next year she plays Grail.
Then I would have two different characters with the same face.
That's the reason why I just can't bring myself to buy a movie statue

I thought Sofia Boutella was playing Grail in the Snyder cut. So Gal plays 2 characters in the Snyder cut?

To each their own.
I like to collect based on both the original characters/source material and(or) the actors portraying them.
Sometimes I will buy a statue/figure based on just the actor, even if I was lukewarm on the movie (Captain Marvel, Brie Larson come to mind).
Emma Watson portrayed both Hermione and Belle (Harry Potter and Beauty & the Beast) - same actor, different characters. I'm OK with that, i bought both the Star Ace and Hot Toys 1:6 figures.
