Anyone else trying to buy special mini?

Just ordered mine. Site wasn't particularly slow, even.

Oh hell... I thought this thread was about the Garg. Black Dragon!

Damn, kinda wished I was a Dragon subscriber atm... (what its not good enough that I go and buy it everytime it hits my FLGS? )

It took me awhile to get in, but I got it.

Now my birthday present for my g/f is complete.

Guys,

If you haven't yet gotten through, I suggest patience, as the demand is completely overwhelming our servers. We are constantly getting the site back online, though, so with patience you should be able to get one of these relatively easily. We've sold a lot so far, but we'll most likely have them for most of the day before we sell out. If you haven't gotten through yet, please don't give up!

Thanks,

Worked flawlessly for me just now... no issues at all.

Well today at 1 pacific time the special edition Black Dragon mini from Dragon Magazine went on sale.
I was already logged in and when 1 p.m. hit the site went down
Guess everyone wanted one.
There is a limited run of 5,000 so I hope I can still get in and get one.

Anyone else trying to get one ? or did get one ordered ?

Yeah. So I called them an placed the order via phone.

I just ordered mine and had no problems.

I noticed it has already jumped to No. 1 on their best sellers list.

Smooth like butter.

Would it be considered bad form for me to start an eBay auction before I'm in possession of the item I'm auctioning?

 

[Darth K'Trava]

Why not.... I saw auctions all over the place for the limited figure from SW Celebration II about a MONTH before that con. With people assuming they'd get a figure while at the con.....

Got mine. And it went thru quickly. The only prob I had was a paper jam on my printer when trying to print out the receipt.... Other than that, went smoothly.

Not if you clearly and plainly note that in the auction itself. To be safe, I wouldn't put it up until you got confirmation that it was in the mail.

Well, I wouldn't put it up at all, but I have a specific use for it.

Question for Erik: is this a one-piece fig, or is it possible to pull the rider off and do a minimum of sculpting/painting to pretty it back up? I don't think I'd do this with the LE, but if I pull one from a booster I'd like to give it a try.
