Sideshow Collectibles teased fans this morning when they announced that two “long-awaited pre-orders” would finally be going up for order today in honor of the last day of Spooktacular 2013! Most Marvel fans latched onto this tidbit with dreams of the limited Hot Toys Midas Iron Man 1/6 figure flashing before their eyes, as that’s easily the most-anticipated item not up for sale. Well, Sideshow did make good on their promise of a long-coming pre-order, though not the one fans had in mind–the Sideshow Apocalypse Premium Format Figure Exclusive Edition is now up for order!

Man, we haven’t even made it to the first official full day of the 2013 San Diego Comic-Con yet, and already companies are being absolutely relentless in their efforts to secure our future dollars! (And I love it!).

Next up at bat is Sideshow Collectibles, which has somehow done the impossible by debuting a statue at SDCC 2013 that’s even bigger than their Gladiator Hulk Premium Format–it’s the Sideshow Apocalypse Premium Format Figure Statue!
