Sorry Tool but all three are sold out.

The three: Vasquez, Apone and Hicks are sold out of the original production run AND they were not suposed to be released until October 2006.

Sideshow Toys are taking names for what they call a "wait list". What that means, I don't know :roll: Does it mean a possible second run? I'll try to find out and let you know. By the was, price was $85 each.

Believe me, these three guys look great and weapons and equipment are dead on accurate. All I could do at the show was drool on the display cases. Sideshow Toys had a young lady follow me around just cleaning off my drool from the cases. It was embarasing :shock: They gave me some little freebees just to get me to go away.

The wait list is used to offer items that end up not selling due to bad credit card numbers, buyer backing out, etc to others. It is a first come first served process. It is worth signing up though. I just picked up an exclusive figure that sold out in the frist 3 hours it was posted by getting on a wait list.

You have to remember these 4" HOT TOYS Colonial Marines were initially advertised last year with the first series of AVP figures. SO That we`ve NOW seen some of the prototypes could mean ANYTIME. Be NICE If it is October this year they come out.

Though saying that Looks like October is going to be VERY EXPENSIVE 1/18th wise. What with these & also the Marvel Legend SHOWDOWN (SHS) figures too :D
Who know`s what else is agoing :D

I've gotten to see some of these in person actually. Without a doubt they're must-buys.
