Oh man, I NEED THIS!! :OMG:

I've never bought a Hot Toys figure in my life, so don't have a clue where to even begin searching for one. Anyone have any tips on the best/cheapest place to get one of these in the UK?

Best UK seller is Lee at thegoodthebadandtherobots.co.uk but the problem is unless you pre order the UK sellers sell their stock pretty quickly. Your best bet in that case is either Sideshow (though customs fees are guaranteed) or if you're after a reliable eBay seller you can't go wrong with timcent88

Neo was released in HK on Friday, mine will be with me this week :)

Many thanks for info! I spent some time searching last night and came across a few UK sites that were selling it for under £200, but just like you said... they'd long sold out unfortunately.

To be honest, I'm willing to pay the price for this one, as I've always wanted a top-notch Neo figure, and you can't get any better than Hot Toys! Plus it'll be my first. :D

Ah, didn't realise that. I literally only just found out about it when that video I posted popped up on my Facebook lol.

Appreciate the info anyway! Definitely something worth considering I guess, as there's still plenty of time for me to think about what the best option will be.

Thanks again. :thumbs:


Oh God. You just HAD to show me that, didn't you?! :bored::p
@Noodles , Also Big Chief Studios. Preorder up at £219.

Thanks man! Cheapest yet I believe. :thumbs:

Problem now is... after looking through these sites, I've come across tons of other 1/6 figures I want to get. :ohno:
Sweet!!
:rofl:
Yes. The rabbit hole is real! The good thing is - these days there aren't as many limited releases. Back in the day, you had to worry that there weren't enough. Like - I jumped all over those Big Chief Bond figures when they came out - and here we are over a year later and they still have them - and on sale!

You are also more than welcome to ship to my address and I reship to you if it makes $ense. fyi. Since I havent opened one my hot toys even from shipper box. weighed it. even with covering up (what it is) I can get under 4 pounds. (lbs) thus from USA to UK shipping rate is $50. So its sideshow price + $50 to avoid customs and sideshow uk shipping price. Sometimes they offer free global shipping (usually only BF and xmas) and other tiems they'll offer free usa shipping on select items. Anyways, just info for you to know.

Thanks man, I really appreciate the offer! I actually almost pre-ordered it the other day through the site C.C. linked to, but I've just blown £300 on two Black Series Lightsabers (wanted them for ages and couldn't resist at that price), so I'm going to have to hold off until next year for Neo now. Good to know the option's there though, so thanks again! :thumbs:

Yeah I would presume another 6 months of neo in stock without being too fearful of sell out.

True ^^^
Figures don't really sell out anymore....in fact, I'm hard pressed to remember the last time one DID.
Everything I have jumped on in the last two years is still available now (and some at discounted prices)

Thanks chaps! Good to know there's no rush then and I can wait as long as necessary. :)

Depends on what you class as sold out. UK sellers like I said before sell almost always sell out their allocation before the figure even comes into stock. Typically I class a figure as sold out when Sideshow aren't even selling it any more and having a quick browse on their site now Hela which was released in HK in October is already waitlisted with them so it's not correct to say figures dont sell out, most do and the only ones that do seem to stick around for the length of time you're referring to are figures from The Force Awakens line

Again not true. Hot Toys big sellers are generally their Marvel figures and so while Neo will have more of a niche market a lot (myself included) were waiting on Hot Toys to pick up the Matrix license so he will be populer. He'll stay available for longer than most of Hot Toys figures but dont be surprised if you struggle to pick him up brand new at retail costs in 6 months

Well, thanks for the heads up! I certainly won't be waiting 6 months anyway, so hopefully I should be safe.

Just placed my order through these guys... thought I might as well do it now since I only have to pay the £30 deposit, then obviously cover the rest once it's actually released, which should give me plenty of time to save up the cash.

Also, they must give all new members £10 worth of reward points, because I noticed I had some during checkout, which brought the total down to £210. :D

Thanks again for the heads up dude! :thumbs:
