I ordered mine on Feb 19/05, so it looks like I'll be waiting for it to ship on Feb 20th.   :(

I ordered mine exact same date as Jesse.  Did you order yours sooner from SWS.com Jared?  I'm guessing you did, since I tend to waffle on these things for a while.  I was even supposed to cancel this thing but changed my mind on it.

Obviously you saw that since I was buying one, and you've always wanted to be like me, you couldn't cancel your order.  I respect that.  :-*

According to my order page, it looks like I placed the SWS order on 2/18. I seem to recall Sideshow putting it up for order the next day.

It's strange, I don't really feel like it was nearly a year ago that preorders started for this guy.

Thats what I thought too, but it was around Toy Fair last year, and that
is only 2 weeks away now. My buddy ordered one the instant we got
back, he had to have it after seeing it.

Damn!  Congrats on the arrival Brent!  #393, impressive.  Can't wait for mine!  It makes me hard just thinking about it.   :-*

Woo hoo, I received a shipping notice for my Vader statue!  It should be here by Friday!

Brent, did you have yours sent directly to you, or is it still waiting down south for you?  Just curious to see how badly you got nailed for customs via FedEx.

Down south.  Sorry, but on an item that large and that expensive, I wasn't risking FedEx or UPS brokerage fees.  I hope it works out for you though, but I am scared for ya :-\

You lucky bastards!

The wait goes on and on for the SWS.com orders. I might get mine by March.  ::)

From Brant, a Sideshow VIP on the Sideshow Freaks board:

Quote
Believe it or not, we are sensitive to straining your wallets. We don't really want to drop all of the SW PF figures on you at once, but we don't want the wait to go on forever either!

Obi-Wan is very, very close to shipping from China. Those 30 day notices are not too far away.

Grievous will follow a month or so behind Obi-Wan.

Leia will keep her pretty panties unbunched until late May or early June.

And the figure after... oh my, but that one is a project. You're gonna have to wait for news there...

30 day notice?  Already :'(  Fuuuuck, there's a monster smoke trail coming off my Visa. 

I sense a stormtrooper in the offing...

Yes, one of those two.  I keep trying to figure out who in the OT was referred to as a "project".  I'm probably imagining a clue there...
