So the First4Figures toys are still on the way..?

Here's evidence that those fantastic First4Figures toys may still be on the way from the Sega Europe flickr, of erm...a broken one. Under the photo they've put:

"Models are to look pretty on a shelf - not to played with - especially early models! Rescued from the sheepish SOE office vandals, they've been given some lego instead."

So there you go. I think play.com canceled my pre-orders months ago, but oh well.

HAHA! Says a lot about his recent games! (I don't really mean that, but as you mentioned it does help generate blog hits) Heres hoping the figures are still on the way!

These figures are out already (at least in America). I ordered and received all three figures from a comic/figure shop a couple of weeks ago. They are really nice!

Really? Wow, they sure sneaked them out! I'll have a look into it, maybe it's just the UK release that's delayed then..

Forbidden Planet has them including the statue apparently! I didn't see them in the store when I was there yesterday but I just ordered them from their website! Oh god my poor bank account.

You won't be disappointed with these. I have the set sitting on my TV shelf and they are without a doubt the best-looking Sonic figures I've ever seen. I hope that more are on the way (I'm a big Sonic CD fan, so I'd love to see classic Amy Rose).

But I couldn't bring myself to buy the larger statue. It's beautiful, but $100(USA) is a little too much for my budget, especially since I'm getting married soon and my future husband probably thinks I have too much Sonic junk as it is...

I'm willing to pay out for the statue, but finding it so far has been a right pain in the arse. I hav it on pre-order with Forbidden Planet so with any luck they'll get me one. I should get the figures from them soon-ish when they re-stock them. No other British website even knows if they will even get them!
