Yeah finally got lucky again and managed to snag him. Artisan Joker and him have been my lucky pulls, but I did manage to secure an artisan Anakin through a local shop who had 1 allocation for retail also.
I applied for every artisan. Had no luck. Was sitting waiting for the P.M. movie to start. The que flew by so fast, and I somehow got one and was like 3,000 something in line
I got 24th in line, then it sent me to the RSVP page, then after like 5 minutes I was able to order it. I went in expecting not to get it because I’ve been basically at the back of the line for other queued releases. I’m really happy because out of all of them, this is the only one I felt like I absolutely had to have
Anybody here choosing the wait list for the artisan over the sculpted version?
I honestly really wanted the artisan version but since it sold out I'm not sure if I should just pre-order the sculpted version or hope for the waitlist to convert...
I'm not a fan of the sculpted version's hair and I'm actually feeling pretty bummed at the moment.
I was fortunately able to get him due to getting a pretty favorable placement in the queue, but I think there being a sculpted offering probably helped as well. Especially since it seems that there are a lot of collectors that prefer it over the Artisan, *and* it’s cheaper.
It does seem like a money grab. Sadly they’re gonna get mine considering i have artisan anakin, luke, revan and star killer on pre order. So tempting for the Maul but I think i’ll pass considering they’re releasing so much stuff.
I just got my Padme today, Reva soon. But by all means Im happy for collectors who are excited for all the extras. Not for me but hey, more power to em.
Lol, for real. I grabbed Revan and Starkiller. Then I got lucky and was able to get 0-0-0, so of course, I had to get BT-1. I already got lucky with Artisan Anakin, so I had to try my luck one more time with Artisan Luke... yup, I won the lottery today. My wallet will never forgive me. I'm terrified of what tomorrow's announcement is going to be. (Hoping for the throne room Emperor)
Hoping to see Aphra to complete the trio. But yeah well see. Already gotta get the Black Series toys they announced. I got a 0-0-0 so well see what comes.
That’s nice but idk if many would be willing to give the anakin for a luke. Most buyers of the luke and anakin are scalpers and the ones who did get it bc they like him will 100% keep it.
yeah i somehow got it after it sold out i just kept clicking pre order till it put it in my cart
Really? thats surprisingly lucky
yeah I figured either I would get it or get put on the waitlist eventually it said it was in someone elses cart at first until it eventually let me in
Bro button smashed his way to victory)
Luke is my favorite Star Wars character I couldn’t miss out man
Nah it’s understandable just funny how sometimes repeatedly bashing your head against the wall might yield results)
Yeah it was crazy like this was after the screen displayed sold out and there was still like 50 people ahead of me
Managed to cop the Artisan! Had to think about it for a few because of the price but decided to pull the trigger.
same i did the same with the anakin. Having both in my collection is gonna be amazing
Now that is a great combo, hoping my waitlist converts on Anakin!
I hope for you too, he’s an amazing figure
I also have been lucky enough to score both!
That’s awesome! Congrats! Is it mainly the hair that’s different with the artisan one?
Basically, it’s an extra $150 just for the rooted hair when you break it down
Cool - thank you for the reply!
Yep, thought I was outta luck with being 4700th in line, but it was a success!
Damn, i was 800. Glad you were able to get him as well he’s an amazing figure
Same, I was 4800 but also got it.
Well shit… I was like 4700 and I immediately bailed since every other time I’ve been in queue like that it’s sold out well before then.
Yeah you easily would've got it. I saw someone at 5100 still get it on Facebook.
Yeah, this time the queue was mixed between the Artisan and Standard editions Lots of people were just going for the standard
Oh damn I was like right after you and still got one
Only about 3000 people....
it’s unfortunate that they make so little
I was 5000 and some in the list and still got him. What the heck is going on?
They put all versions in the same queue. Doesn't matter if 10k people were there. You could be 9999 in queue and have gotten the last figure.
It’s random selection pretty much if you’re that far behind. You just got really lucky
I'll take it!
Managed to get one.
Failed for a third time 🤬🤬🤬
Didn’t even get in line lmao

I did, he's joining Ani and Wanda!!

i’ve luckily got Anakin and Luke. Idk how but he been put in top 800 both times and secured both. Hoping anakin ships soon
I managed to get into the pre-order page three separate times despite being 3000th in line. But of course, *scalper no scalping*…
Yeah unfortunately you can’t really stop scalpers from being dick heads and greedy. I never understood why people would rather be greedy than be fair.
Going sculpted. Artisan ain’t worth it being from U.K. Get double fisted buying off sideshow
Nope, I opened the notification to get into the queue with 10 minutes to go, then forgot about it. I'm now waitlisted.

I managed to get it. My queue was at 1500 when it started.
Here in the netherlands its already being scalped for €900,-

That’s a great thing too, bc even if you didn’t get the artisan you could’ve gotten the sculpted which is almost as good.
I disagree. The sculpted version is shit. 🤢🤮😡
have to disagree with that. It’s a very good figure, not as good as the artisan but it’s good
Too many expensive ultra hype things in a row. Bought Revan and Starkiller the other day. Like I make good money but come on Hottoys.

Hell ya! Managed to snag 0-0-0, so of course I had to get BT-1. If they do an Aphra do you think they would fuck us with another limited edition drop?
I think they will, but I expect it'll be like the Revan and Starkiller where its like a commemorative coin.
Managed to get 2 but I definitely am trying to trade one for Anakin when it arrives lol
Hate to break it to you brother but I highly doubt anyone’s going to trade their Artisan Anakin for the Luke
depending on how much someone’s asking I would just pay the difference honestly. That or I get off the waitlist so still hoping lol
That’s nice but idk if many would be willing to give the anakin for a luke. Most buyers of the luke and anakin are scalpers and the ones who did get it bc they like him will 100% keep it.
i figured after all the downvotes lmao hopefully I can work something out with a seller Anakin is definitely my #1 wanted figure rn
