I love the statue but that seems a tad overkill

Yeah, I am curious on this as well. How many versions are there going to be...and where can I order that exclusive one?

I haven't heard of any other variants, but they certainly wouldn't have to tell me about it if there were plans....

Our new one was made for and available exclusively on http://store.bethsoft.com/. We are talking about selling up to fifty at Quakecon, but the online sales were set for Friday the 2nd at last discussion.

I think Bethesda wanted to do the reveal during their opening of Quakecon announcements, so I probably shouldn't share any photos of the differences, but I'll try to work out something teasery.

It involves a hood....

Edit: Looking at the photos of the other two, I think this one has two different arms with stuff in/on/around them that aren't on the others. As well as the head, which is the more noticeable difference.

Sounds interesting. Kinda annoying that this has happened though! >.< Glad I didn't select Flexipay with gamingheads. >.< Do you have a price for it? How about potential postage costs, import fees, etc? Will it be shipped from Treehouse or direct from Gamingheads? Is it a gamingheads issue statue?

Got a feeling it's going to cost me a small fortune to import this from Treehouse over the gamingheads exclusive as they have a distribution centre in the UK and I only have to pay the shipping cost from the UK.

Need more info about costs before I commit to this.

Also, Ryan, I would just like to say thank you for all the info and heads ups that you provide us with here. Keep it up!

Basically there was only 2 variants prior to this

A 1000 sized Regular Edition sold at multiple locations

http://www.sideshowtoy.com/?page_id=4489&sku=902025

http://store.bethsoft.com/dragonborn...e-deposit.html

And then a 500 sized Exclusive edition sold only through gamingheads

http://www1.gamingheads.com/index.ph...=3&product=103

Difference was the exclusive came with

an additional alternate arm that holds a fireball spell that illuminates and pulses like real fire

Also numbered differently of course

And now there's the Exclusive Treehouse/Beth Store edition

Might just move my order to the Treehouse one now and cancel gaming heads

Would have to know if it includes all that the gaming heads does though

I.E. Is the super exclusive one encompassing of what the exclusive one has?

Thanks!

Details are scant at the moment, but yeah, it's a big box and we're shipping it from the States (since it's a box and not something that needs packing, I expect it'll come from one of our warehouses). It is the same statue, with new arms and head, but otherwise the same quality/molds/manufacturer/etc. Price is undetermined, but I'm assuming it won't be more than $50 over the least limited edition, if more at all.

Yeah, they sold us a good portion of the 1000 regular ones. This new one is basically a commission, so they're making it for us and no one else will have any.

It is not a level up from the first exclusive one--just a sideways move. Their glowing hand is awesome and we don't have it. Having said that, I'm not sure which one I prefer. Hard to beat fearsome glowing hand, but our guy looks pretty intimidating and cool.

Hmmm... Gonna have to think long and hard about this one. I don't mind paying the extra for the cost of the statue, but then I would need to think about the cost of the postage and whether I would have to pay custom duty when it gets to the UK or whether it is something that would be charged before dispatch. Also, any idea what company would be used to ship it to international customers?

That's really cool that you guys are getting an exclusive of your own. ^o^ I really look forward to seeing some pics. A little disappointing to hear that it won't have the glowing hand though. I think I will still most likely go for the most limited version though. lol Will be awaiting some pics and more info.

Thanks for the heads up and information regardless Ryan

Always looking out

I may choose to try and get both as the gaming heads one isn't due out for a while

So will try to get this one first at least

Nice to have the option to get both. I would like both, but space and funds will only permit me to have one. Will have to choose carefully.




^^^ Swifty ^^^

Totally understand. That's why I wanted to pop on here and start the clock on decisions. It's a lot of money, and at the limited quantity available, there could be a run on them when they're announced, so the more time to mull the better....

Should be able to tell you more concrete info about shipping (and price) early next week.

I think our guy is the most interesting looking, but he's not as iconically Skyrim (and has no glowing hand), so for the money I'm not sure where I'd go if I were a big fan.

Ok, cool. I'll keep checking back here during the week then for more info then.

I'll have to wait for images before I make my final decision though! XD I can live without the glowing hand as I don't often have the lights on, on any of my figures anyway, so it's kinda wasted! XD

Not sure what you mean by "not as iconically skyrim", but I look forward to the reveal.

Thanks for your replies! ^o^
