Sideshow Hellboy Samaritan - Take 2 (merged)

Re: Sideshow Hellboy Samaritan - Take 2

Just ordered the exclusive version from Sideshow- boy, am I gonna be in trouble- from my better half, my bank account and ME!

The confirmation email states that 'This order is being shipped from the European warehouse only', so that answers that question!

Ah yes, just got that one too, problem solved, case closed.

Anyone been watching the old ones on ebay lately? So who was it that was worried about devaluation? The old ones are still going for more than the new ones.

Re: Sideshow Hellboy Samaritan - Take 2

even if it's being updated, there still were only 1,000 made. that's a pretty low edition size no matter what the prop.

Did you guys see the one guy who wants 2 grand for his samaritan?

Re: Sideshow Hellboy Samaritan - Take 2

Say what you will about edition size. The number of samaritan on ebay JUMPED as soon as the new one was announced. That's gotta tell you somethin. The people that had the old one now want to unload it to get the new one

I think I'm gonna display my old one on the new stand and then have the new gun lying around the house to play with!

Re: Sideshow Hellboy Samaritan - Take 2

I ordered mine last night and I'm glad I just stumbled on this. I get sideshows newsletter, but I somehow this one went under the radar. Same thing happened last time and I missed out. This is just too cool to pass up!

Re: Sideshow Hellboy Samaritan - Take 2

Got lost in the flurry of Toy Fair news I guess.

So does anybody know what KIND of metal will be used? Is it that Zymac stuff or whatever, that Master Replicas uses?

Re: Sideshow Hellboy Samaritan - Exclusive edition SOLD OUT

GHAA!!! That was quick. Only 850 pieces too! Glad I got my order in. Man, I'm almost as excited for this prop as I am for "Vera". (I said almost!)

I would imagine they'd use cast aluminum or something due to the size. A few Denix items use some kind of porous light weight stuff that feels a little like aluminum but is probably an inexpensive alloy blend. I had a small hand axe made out of the stuff but it broke (snapped in two) while filming a scene in an old Fantasy parody I did. The high-pitched "clink" sound you can hear in the Samaritan video made me think of how that axe sounded when tapped against another metal object.

Just to clarify, the non-exclusive Sammy is still available. But it's the same price, $400. So you might shop around and save a few bux.

Re: Sideshow Hellboy Samaritan - Take 2

I thought it sold very slowly. I think $400 for a non-firing gun had people thinking twice. Not me though...I placed my order the second I saw it. :cool

The Exclusive 12" General Obi-Wan Kenobi sold out in 8 and half minutes...

Heh heh...My bad...$500...$400...it's all the same after $200... i.e. More money than I care to part with, but I just GOTTA HAVE IT!!!

Re: Sideshow Hellboy Samaritan - Take 2

Don't you mean $400?

Glad I got mine!
Now I'm still not sure whether I want to sell my gen 1...

Re: Sideshow Hellboy Samaritan - Take 2

Re: Sideshow Hellboy Samaritan - Take 2

:lol
You had me nervous there for a minute...."Did I pay $500 and just not notice????"

I seriously can't wait for this gun! Or the movie! Or to see what Hellboy stuff Sideshow releases next!
Anybody order/receive the belt and holster yet?

Re: Sideshow Hellboy Samaritan - Take 2

Finally got a reply concerning whether the samaritan would come from the UK wahehouse even though my confirmation said US( i live in the UK):

Dear Lewis,

I’m not sure what caused your confirmation email to say that this item was shipping from the US; however please rest assured that your order will be shipping directly from our warehouse in the UK. I have looked at your order and everything looks correct including the warehouse designation.

Please accept my apologies for the confusion and if I can be of any further assistance, just let me know.

Thank you!

Best Regards,

Cindy Spielman

So there you have it. If you live in the UK it will come from the UK, which is nice to know.
