Man am I ****** off. I've been in contact with a place here for months over Kermit and waiting and now they finally tell me he's come in……..but he's SOLD OUT and they WON'T be getting anymore. They had a bunch of orders and full orders already paid for, yet only received 2. so they can't even fill all their orders. I'm so upset. I have no idea how to get myself a Kermit now. This is not something I'd like to get online either, but now I may have no choice. Maybe I can find another place here that might carry it, but I doubt it :mad:

I think we all would of liked to pick out our Kermit in person in a store. But, Master Replicas have great quality control. I'm trusting that every Kermit in the edition are identical. Same eye positioning, collar, etc..So far in everyone's photos, all the Kermits have looked pretty close. Your best bet is to order one directly through Master Replicas. They are selling out fast. I wouldn't wait because then your only option is going to be Ebay and the resale on that is going to be rediculous.

Oh yea, I wasn't really worried about that. I was worried more so on damage during shipping or it being opened at the border or something like that…plus extra costs in shipping and possible duty. If it wasn't a higher priced ranged item like this, I wouldn’t mind a little extra with shipping and duty, but here it all adds up. But mostly I'm upset because I originally was going to pre-order online but I didn’t because a place here already had me down for a Kermit for months and said they'd let me know when it came in, and now most of their orders couldn't even be filled because they didn't get enough. Hardly any. On a positive note, at least he‘s selling good!

Oh..I see...from Canada? Yeah...customs can get a little pricey. And you never know if your package is the random one that they sick the dogs on!:wink: I'm sorry to hear that you got kinda screwed by that store. I hope you find one soon.

It took 22 days for me to get my Kermit :smile: . I ordered him on Sept. 1st, and recieved him at my door on the morning of Sept. 22nd. An added touch that I was not expecting was the way Kermit was presented, aka the other box Kermit comes in. Although it kinda looked like a Kermit coffin. But I'm glad the extra touches were added. Can't wait for Gonzo :concern: !!

Awesome pose Chris!! I've been thinking about what to do next with my Kermit, and something like that crossed my mind.

Is your plaque leaning up against Kermit? Or do you have it in a stand?

Looks great!! Cool that your friends liked him too.
