Yeah, I am just waiting for my last set of figures to come in and my PF statue. I'll be paying less than 45% after using my rewards.
This will be the crowning addition to my phase 1 steelbooks. Diecast, I'm glad I held off getting the earlier editions now. 
For anyone in the UK, I ordered from here -
Great price and they offer Sideshow style payment plans. Free P & P as well.
6 Months to go.

Decided to check on the status of my order this morning, only to find the following message....

This sort of thing was in the back of my mind when I placed the order, but I decided to go for it. I've sent paypal an email, to see if I can get my deposit (at least I hadn't paid the balance yet) back, not holding my breath.

Sorry to hear that, is there another place in Scotland you can order from? If not you might try hitting up another US member to help you out.
Thanks guys. Forbidden Planet do stock it, but they are £40 more expensive and combined with the lost deposit (slim chance of refund I think) that's £80 more.
Came across some more news about this here. Hope it's alright to post a direct link.

At least I'm only down £40, some poor souls haven't been quite so lucky. One guys down £1,700, now that sucks supremly.

You can still pick up Mark 42 from the likes of ToyHQ and CollectabledirectUK and more reasonable prices than FP.com
Well I make my final payment on the 15th. That's just next week, I sure hope they don't bump this again. 
If they do bump it again

Well my last flex payment was to be on the 15th of this month, just got an email stating that the last payment will be a week and three days later; on the 25th. I guess the ship transporting these from HK veered off course or something. 
Well at least it's not another month or two.

Nice to hear
I'm still waiting on WM2 and IP to show up on this side of the pond.. UK/Europe are so far down the pecking order when getting these HT supplies .. just seems to take forever
Man that sux that you have to wait so long. 
Isn't the UK closer to HK than the US? You would think that you guys would get first dibs or at least a coordination with the US on release dates.

Compared to the US, UK/European sales are probably alot smaller for Hot Toys business. so after HK/China/Asia, its the US that get the next batches.
Also around half the UK retailers source their supply from Sideshow rather than from an Asian distributor, so hence the longer wait for us.

lucky! gotta wait for my local Canadian shop to get theirs, but I can't wait to get this in hand
Leaning more towards the Silver Centurion, simply because the armor looks cooler than the XLII armor. Also the base for the SC has a goose neck arm which you can pose your figure as flying like I did.
