email from Cinequest: release date of Dark Willow

[ShiveringMelody]

OK, so I emailed Cinequest earlier today about when they will be getting Dark Witch Willow. Here is what I sent to them:

Hey,
I've already pre-ordered a Dark Witch Willow figure months ago, but some websites are saying that it won't come out until February 2004. Yet its been said on cinequest.com that you would be getting it in December of this year. Will it be December 2003 or February 2004, when you get the Dark Witch Willow figure?

Here is the response I got:

I have been told it will be here in December. If Moore has changed the release date, they haven't informed me as yet. If I hear of a change, then I'll send an email to all who ordered and give them an opportunity to cancel their orders.

Thanks for the information!

Hopefully, they will still get Willow in December, if not I will continue to be patient. For now.

It will most likely be in 2004, because MAC has control over the figures, and it's up to them on the dates of release. So I'm going for the more logical date at which it should come out.

I'm not sure about that, this may be more like Ikon's exclusives. They paid for them and got them according to their schedule, not MAC's (otherwise we still wouldn't have Buffy & Spike, lol). IIRC, Cinequest basically fronted the bill for this exclusive so that we could get our hands on a new figure. (Hence the customers being charged for the pre-orders before the product actually ships.) At the least, MAC owes it to us to get this d@mn figure out ASAP since they've been screwing us since last year. Just my 2¢.

WOW!

MAC didn't even tell Cinequest before they made that change public and it's supposed to be their figure.

WOW!
