Received a reply from the store we made purchase the from asking what's up:

Don't worry, this item will in stock within one week.

 

[ocielz]

Thanks @Bubbie, I post it on their Facebook page but didn't get a reply. Hopefully all works out well.

 

[Hooch]

I still did not get an invoice. It will be funny if I will miss out in the end of the day Will contact them again if I do not get an invoice before the end of the day.
Appears to be sold out at that store too.

Yep, still no invoice and no word from the shop. I guess I should not worry until next week according to their previous reply to me, LOL.

At last the invoice! Payment to follow in the morning.

Congrats to all who got this! Who hasn't, it is still available here, apparently.

This is quite funny as this is my first ever 1/6 scale figure. I collect a bunch of steelbooks, limited editions, digibooks etc etc but this will be my first "toy"!

So how does this work? You guys keep it sealed like a precious steelbook or open up an enjoy? Is this a little "grail" because of the licensing thingy or what? I am such a newbie in this area!

 

[ocielz]

@Hooch
You open that Sucker up and Display them in all their Glory!! I have many 1/6 and 1/4 scale figures and all of them are out of their boxes.

I don't think it will be a Grail, there's been many other Non license figures and they didn't rise in price.

Here's a pic of my 1/4 scale preds, they look better than being in their boxes.

@Bubbie
Good to hear!! Patiently waiting for this figure

 

[Bubbie]

Paid and waiting

@Hooch, I only have one 1/6 "toy" sealed. Granted, I do not have that many to begin with compared to @ocielz, LOL (awesome preds collection, by the way; jealous). As for this Dredd, eBay price have jumped by about a $100 compared to the original cost. Keep in mind that this is what people are asking, not necessarily what people are paying. That EKIA Hobbies store (the link I provided above) gradually bumped the price up by $30 in the past 4-5 days and they are the only ones I can find have it in stock (or on back-order). Then again, they still have in stock Once the hype dies down, those eBay price will drop, IMHO, and this will be sold at cost or close to that. On the other hand, you never know; the price might even skyrocket (especially if Dredd 2 comes to life, but chances are slim, I think). But that's just my humble opinion Do not forget that that fake leather outfit might disintegrate with time if kept sealed for too long.

In the mean time, while waiting...

 

[Hooch]

I will open and display it, just curious abot the "market" if it resembled that of the steelbooks.
The pics looks just amazing...gonna have my french fnac box opened up in the background while on display

 

[Bluprint]

This is a GRAIL FIGURE! Something that wasn't suppose to happen and something that will never happen again!

 

[ocielz]

@Bluprint, Get it now that it's still available for cheap!!!!
