Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.

I find this really difficult to believe, as I am sure many other will?
How about a scan of your Argos receipt to keep the nay sayers down?
The catalogue isn't officially put out until this saturday (21st) and like most Argos stores, they never have all the latest new items in stoke for a week or three!
Fail!

*sighs* This is pretty ridiculous. This whole... proof required thing. I mean, he owes you absolutely NOTHING.
1.) We know the catalog has the items.
2.) The store confirmed it for him.
3.) He has the item IN HAND.
It didn't come from eBay, as there are none on there, you can call your local store and ask and see if they have them. He has all the proof he needs. Really, what it is is that you're jealous you didn't get it before him and you're just going to whine about it.
Go to the store and get it. Sitting there complaining won't do you a bit of good.robotmel wrote:...don't get me wrong, I love the work you do Duck, but I did work for them and know exactly what they're like! Luv ya!
Obviously, things have changed at Argos. I live in the States, so I can't attest to that, but all evidence points to the contrary of what you were shown/know.

The 'Prime' line is gonna be a whole new world for 3rd party folk to get creative with... and I can't wait!
Love the show and getting hold of the figures now seems to be almost within my grasp ( @ El Duque)!
Off topic, all over Radio 1 today about Megaupload being taken down! Is this pre-SOPA/PIPA kicking in?

Pay extra for the First Edition. Trust me, it's worth it to import it from Canada like I did. About $25-30.00 shipped.

I'm IN Canada. CJ disappeared off shelves in a single day, and the remaining Prime figures sold out the day after Christmas.

oh well. i guess the stores around here have no interest in making money for a while.

No you know what would be awesome? If the UK and the rest of Europe would even get one of the First Edition figures.
