Yeah, at this point in time for me so far, and with what I have coming in for the year, that price is no dice for me. Already had to take a $75 extra hit with Wildrider anyway, haha.

 

you see this thing all the time with hot toys figures some sellers strip them down and sell them as parts because they can make more money on the figure that way

 

I ordered an in-stock Magnum at BBTS seven days ago and it still hasn't shipped. It was a great price because it has a "sub-standard" box.... But it's a good reminder of why I don't use them anymore.

 

So much hate for BBTS lately. I have an untold number of pending items w them.

 

I’m just used to BBTS. They tell me I have zero days left and have to ship my POL, then take an extra week plus to ship it.  

 

And during that week your POL is "in the warehouse" at least three pre-order items come in stock  

 

I mean, they're dead last to get stuff in, and then when you tell them to ship it they take a full week to actually send it using the slowest shipping method they can find. Plus they have no free shipping options or loyalty programs despite charging as much or more than TCP. So I'm not saying that they're bad, but they're certainly not competing very hard for my business.

 

That’s funny as hell because it’s so damn true!

If you’re not trying to be first in the race, and want reliable service then BBTS it is. Plus if stock actually hangs around they will put things on sale. They may be slow, but they have yet to drop the ball.

 

He was available for months, I got mine after Magnum in like july

 

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah i'm a bit late to the party thanks to a LOT of other stuff I had on pre-order, and before that, said COVID panic. A loss I indeed take, haha. Also it just kinda seems right speaking for the masses who may have missed the whole set, for example.

 

If it is reissued again its just going to go up in price. Might as well get it now

 

Magnum was my first figure in this set and my first Fans Toys figure and my second MP figure

 

What was your first MP figure?

 

Haha yea it constantly kept coming up on my search so I've got it saved.. Totally curious to see if anyone buys it

 

I wanna say it's been up for almost 9 months now. I believe dude is selling the part he replaced. Worst is when u see ppl just sell empty FT boxes and you don't realize it until you read the description. Been bamboozled once by those posts.

 

MP28 Hotrod

 

When I see those I get excited but then I check and its a box. I'm Rick James bitch!

 

hi @dalianjj, I'm not sure how ofter you stop by this thread these days but I'm hoping next time you do you can answer a burning question: When will Fans Toys be announcing a release date and importantly, offering preorders for Bandit?

The Smokey, Sovereign reissue, Koot reissue & Spoiler reissue preorders sold out almost instantaneously. So a few of us (myself being one of them) are getting kinda twitchy about the prospect & probability of this happening with Bandit.

A ball park date for when preorders will open up would go a long way to ensuring we have a half decent chance for success.

regards, MJC.

 

After 40 plus days in shipping purgatory, he’s finally here!!
