Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

Question No new preorders Thursday August 8th?

Is there no new preorders this week from ssc? This would be the first Thursday in all the years nothing has been posted? One would think we can get one statue huh?

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

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

No wonder I PO only 2 statues so far this year. Every year I normally po 10 or so. This year, seems SS only interested in 1/6 dolls. Open es or no es is keeping me away. I won't spend x amount of my hard earned dollars if the statue won't hold its value. I'm sure many folks are doing the same thing. I say SS should give up on the 1/4 scales & make dolls & give us fans another company to turn to, eh

Agreed. I have only one pre-order the entire year so far. But, they're sure pumping out the action figures like crazy.

Seems like they are the one stop shop for 1/6 fans and statues are fading into the background. Like someone said earlier, maybe their bottom line just looks better after they get done feeding the Hot Toys monster so they're focusing on 1/6 from here on in. Yea, they may release a statue once in a while but these Hot Toys are at the point of ridiculous.

I wish Enterbay would start making statues already. Put Sideshow in its place!

Nothing good going up and I still don't have a bunch of orders I placed almost a year ago.

Yep, I feel the exact same way. Large amounts of these action figures, poorly re-done website and incredibly long wait times for new pre-orders/releasing of existing orders.

That's actually a great way to sum it up!
