for only $5.50

I'm kinda annoyed because I payed full price, but this guy is definitely worth it if you have any interest in the character or just an elf figure.

Great sculpt and paint, range of motion is limited but I still think it's good enough.
>>
>>6268107
>inb4 they cancel Sylv and the rest because they didn't sell well enough for Blizzard
>>
Yeah, all the HotS are $5.50 and Stitches is $12.50.

I already have them, but I picked up another Stitches because that price is amazing.
>>
>>6268117
Don't you put that evil out there! I need Diablo and Sylvanas. They can cancel after that if they want....

It's what you get for putting the HotS logo instead of WoW on the packaging.
>>
>>6268107
>$5 for a figure
>over $30 for shipping to Europe

I want him since the day he came out, but I guess I'll never have him, because Blizz can't ship physical stuff from their second HQ in Paris... oh wait, they can, because I got SC2 collector's edition from their Paris HQ, so they just don't want to sell toys to us

I have these two and illidian, and plan on buing all the warcraft ones. I believe these would have sold much better if instead of branding them as hots toys, there would have been seperate lines for wc, sc and diablo.
>>
I'm salty that I missed out on the Sideshow Tychus. It's a holy grail of mine but the original pricetag was way too much, nevermind how much it goes for these days. But 260 was an amazing deal. Except by the time I saw it, it was already sold out. Ugh.

>>6268639

What? It's $10 shipping to the Netherlands. Where in Europe are you?
>>
>>6268117

I feel like instead of dumb HotS they should have just made WoW figures. They seem o be the only characters people actually want.
>>

>>6269119
Well were getting figuarts, which I'm totally ok with.

welp, just impulsed exactly these two guys. two more guys in my "i know nothing of these guys" purchases. see you in that thread about buying things from a source material i dont know
>>
>>6269149
They're both awesome, Stitches is great and I went ahead and bought another one at that price. I mean, he just can't be beat.
>>
Well, tried to order the two I didn't have but there's only one shipping option for international and it comes out at over $40, so I wouldn't save anything compared to buying them locally. This fucking sucks.

Thanks dude, I didn't even know there was a sale. Missed out on a couple things but still got several figures

picked up Nova, Tyrael, and Stitches

>>6268117
I expressed my fears to NECA on Twitter but they don't give a fuck about me.

I haven't played a Blizzard game since Frozen Throne, but I always loved the Abominations, and I had been following that figure since prototypes showed up in other Neca threads. Glad to find it for such an amazing price.

IDGAF about the action figures but I did just order 4 Dragon Whelp plushies. I got the Crimson, Emerald, Dark and Bronze Whelplings for $6.25 each. I don't play WoW anymore but when I did the dragon whelplings you could find were my favorite companions. Would have gotten the Azure Whelp plush too, but it wasn't discounted as much as the rest.

There are a lot of cute plush in this sale.
>>
I've had Illidan for a while and I've wanted to get Arthas. $11 shipped is pretty good, thanks OP.

This is so true.

Stitches for $12.50? Thanks OP!

does this mean I need to wait for Sylvanas and Jim Raynor to go on sale to buy them

>I believe these would have sold much better if instead of branding them as hots toys, there would have been seperate lines for wc, sc and diablo.

I think you overestimate the branding value of this kind of line. Honestly it's mostly that toys based on video games tend to not sell very well in general, especially expensive toys. Cheap pokemon and Nintendo stuff, sure, but not really collector oriented figures. They had a World of Warcraft line before, and NECA did a Diablo figure, and neither did specutacularly well. Yes, the WoW line was essentially statueshit but you'd have expected it to sell simply by the brand since it came out when WoW was at its peak of popularity.

I guess NECA chose the HOTS banner so they could just make "Blizzard: The Toyline" instead of trying to design different packaging and have a bunch of little sub-lines. It's easy for them to manage.

On the plus side, even if the line really is over now, it did manage to put out some really good figures of some cool characters. Arthas is probably the best. Nova is the only dud in the line, holy shit that figure is hot garbage. But Arthas, Tyrael and Illidan are all spectacular (I don't have Stitches).
>>
>>6271532
We better end up getting this guy, aside from Arthas he's the only one I wanted.

Don't even play WoW or HotS I just think they're cool as hell.
>>
Arthas looks a lot dopier than I remember.
>>
>>6268639
>mfw it's coming out to <1USD per item shipping for me
idk what shipping is like from the US to where ever you are, but I could buy an extra and ship it to you. can't imagine it would be more than $15
>>
Never gonna get a Lili and Chen Stormstout action figure.
>>
>>6272156

I think there was a Chen Stormstout a few years ago but it was just called Pandaren Brewmaster and it was more of a statue I believe.


Also there was a Megabloks, it came with the Sha of Anger.
>>
so has anyone's order shipped yet?

>>6276259
Have seen some anons post their stuff so I guess so. But if you order was a few days in the sale they'll be shipping today or the upcoming days.

I got my Arthas. I put his sword in his hand and tried to pose him like this and ended up breaking the little piece that connects the blade to the handle of the sword. I don't think I ham handed it too hard but oh well. I'll end up super gluing the sword in his hand or something. Not like I'd have to take it out of his hand anyway.
>>
How good is Bliz's customer support with minor defects on out of stock items?
>>
>>6288330

Fuck I should have mentioned that in a post. That was a regular problem when the figure was first released. If im not mistaken the pommel comes off to put the sword in his hand. It's really easy to break the sword at the hilt if you put any pressure on it at all.

I just superglued the sword back together and it was fine.

You have to consider that old WoW line was not only statueshit, but also 9/10 characters they did were literally whos.
>>
>>6288627

The Megabloks line was like this.

Why can't anyone figure out how to do a proper WoW line with characters people actually care about???

It's not hard, Thrall, Sylvanas, Arthas, Illidan, Garrosh, those dumb human leaders, Illidan's brother maybe, throw in some Pandaren like Chen, Vol'Jin, The Taurun leader dudes. Basically doing the leaders of the races would knockout 90% of the characters people care about.

As for which look, just use the ones from Cinimatics. No one cares about Garrosh in some random armor he wore in Northrend, they care about when he was Warchief and the villain of an expansion.

I ordered Stiches and Tyrael (already had Illidan and Arthas, no interest in Nova) on the 12th and they arrived today. No email message saying they had shipped. Don't give up hope.

They better fucking release Thrall. I'd love for this line to continue for a long time (would love Uther, Anub'arak, Cho'gall, etc) but if I get Thrall I will be satisfied.

Just want to thank OP and the people that kept this thread alive for alerting me of this sale when it was on. I'm playing Blizzard games all fucking day and not a single email or notice on the client about this. Don't live in the US so this sort of thing either never makes it here or it's 5x the price.
>>
I too was super pumped about this alert of sale. Got a bunch of figs, including Nova, I'm very surprised people don't like this figure. It seems to me to have quality similar to all the other figures, along with better motion because of less bulky armor. I don't know, maybe I'm just pumped about everything because I got 4 figures for the price of 1.
>>
>>6293348
some people show pictures of how the legs of the character broke instantly before taking it out of the package.
dont know if they break stuff intentionaly to troll neca threads, or neca fans fear anything will break so they are so careful that figures seem fine.

Just got shipping notification today, the 26th. When I look at the shipping history, it was actually shipped on the 20th. Should be in tomorrow on the 27th.

Got my goods today, after double checking the tracking I saw my package was at a nearby FedEx office since I hadn't been around the day they tried to deliver it, I went to pick up.

These dragon whelps are pretty nice quality and they have wires in the wings so you can shape and kind of pose them. I would totally buy more of these plushies if I catch another sale some time.
>>
>>6302585
do you have trouble with the wings as well? that they are too floppy. My Crimson Whelpling has that problem.

>>6302914
One of the wings of my emerald whelp droops a bit, but you can shape it to look decent, for the sale price and the quality of the material and stitching I'm happy with them.

Still no word on if Sylvanas and Raynor will ever actually be released?
>>
>>6310298
They said on twitter that those two and thrall will be released in limited quantities and that the line will end after them. Another reason why NECA is such ass is that they can't even churn out figures for a MOBA with characters from well loved franchises.

Yes, you did your part, but it's everyone else being cheapfucks that screws us over.
You can't blame NECA for poorfags, especially when the figures are so great.
>>
>>6310689
Yessss
It's the poorfags fault that this line didn't move!
It's the poorfags fault that there wasn't any interest!
It's the poorfags fault that they chose HotS of all things instead of, oh I don't know, ponying up for WoW, SC, or Diablo license or something and just doing the actual iconic and recognizable designs from the games that more people would actually have interest in or do the actual interesting stuff first
I'm sure a lot of people would've paid top dollar for something like an "ULTIMATE" Illidan a la other NECA Ultimates that comes with fuckhuge demon wings and had the head with horns over a look that is barely memorable and happens to be the main skin in HotS
Are you really just going to say it's not NECA's fault too for dropping the ball so fucking hard when they had decent shot at a great line?
If you're going to blame the consumers for anything, blame the loud faggots who screamed about Nova being the worst thing ever made. That sure didn't help people decide to give this line a chance
>>
>>6310782
>if they made the toyline exactly how i want it, the line would be successful
>because i bought the toys at full price, the line was successful
cool story, bro

If people didn't want the toys, no price is enough to make them buy it.
Have we even had a thread on the Warcraft movie toys? Whereas these Blizzard lines from NECA get a lot of interest and have had dozens of threads, yet buyers? There's a reason why these threads only get this big when there's a sale.
>>
>>6311565

The problem with the Warcraft line was

> Movie
> Looked like shit

Also they were Warcraft, now World of Warcraft, which is what people want. I mean half the characters barely show up in WoW since they are all dead by the time of WoW.
>>

I am in Canada and my package came when I wasn't home so they were holding it at a nearby FedEx office. If your package has shipped check your tracking details to see if maybe the package is just in holding somewhere.

... awww, I can't find any sign that my payment actually went through. :( I coulda sworn I placed it, but maybe one of my javascript blockers didn't allow it to go through. RIP. my last credit card bill was until mid April, and I'm pretty sure that's the period when I ordered it.
Well, maybe next time they go on sale. They did before. :|
