Superbowl Blog

Hi Everyone,

I'm back with some more great news. It's been about 2 weeks since the last blog because truthfully, there hasn't been much going on. But, now I have some news to report, so let's get down to it.

Gentle Giant:
We are still waiting for our shipment of Aragorn, The Ringwraith and Plo Koon. So far we have not heard any news about when our distributors are supposed to be getting them in. Since this is the last day of January, I guess the January street date is not applicable anymore. LOL.

When we're on the scene at Toyfair in a couple of weeks, I will let you know what goodies Gentle Giant has in store for us later next year.

Also, if you get a chance, checkout our Star Wars Statues and Busts section. We've added a bunch of restocked items and some rare and hard to find Promo pieces.

Acme Archives:
Acme had great news for all of us in the last week. Acme's next Giclee "Women of Clone Wars" is now available for preorder from us with an expected ship date of February. Another great Giclee for your collection. Since Razor's offers free shipping on them, now's the time to preorder one and add this great piece to your collection.

Acme also announced a brand new Character Key Line, Original Trilogy Character Keys. The first key in this line will be none other than Princess Leia in her Slave Outfit. Hubba Hubba. This Key will be on sale first at the New York Comic Con in February (but will not be exclusive to the con) and at the same time it will be on sale direct at ACME Archives website and will have an edition size of 1000. We're not sure yet if we will have them for sale, but this is definitely worth talking about.

Factory X:
We will be receiving a nice shipment of various Buffy replicas from Factory X. They just received restocking on several items, which will be listed on the website as soon as they arrive. So we should be charging up the Buffy section again with more great products.

Quantum Mechanix:
The Serenity Money Packs have been flying off the shelves and today is the last day for production of the exclusive club version money packs. So whatever remaining inventory we have in stock now of these is all we will have left to sell. So if you haven't picked one up yet, now is the time before they sellout and prices rise.

The Captain Malcolm Reynolds Pistol is expected to ship soon as well. So we will keep you posted once it ships and on the way to us.

Hasbro:
The Sealed Saga Cases of Waves 8 & 9 both sold out for us last week. They have been hotcakes. But not to worry if you missed out. We should have more of Wave 9 back in stock in the next 2 weeks. We should also be receiving the Expanded Universe Cases and some of the new Starfighter Vehicles. Once we get these in, we will put some up on the website. The 30th Anniversary Wave 1 figures are expected out real soon too, so stay tuned on them.

Master Replicas:
We started receiving the pre sold out Star Trek Enterprise Commemorative Edition Signed Ships in our warehouse this week and everyone who had one on preorder was emailed. So if you did not hear from us, give us a call or email. The regular version of this ship is expected in stock in the next week or so.

Sideshow:
As always, there's alot going on with Sideshow. Hmm, where do I begin. Let's first start off with a 51 pound box named the Hulk. LOL. We received our shipment of these pre sold out statues and started emailing all of you who have preordered one with us, that he's here and we will be very happy to ship them all. LOL. My UPS driver looked at me like I had 2 heads when they arrived. LOL.

Also coming in this week are the following items:
Sideshow 12" Sith Probe Droid Accessory Set
Sideshow 12" Legolas Greenleaf Figure

The long awaited Frodo Premium Format Figure will be releasing very soon along with the Kiss Ace Frehley Premium Format Figure. And Spiderman vs. Venom is right around the corner as well. Like everything else, we will notify all of our customers who have preorders in for all of these great items once they hit the warehouse.

We also beefed up our Sideshow Universal Monster Figures section with some very rare 12" Figures, so if you get a chance, checkout our Horror Figures section and you may find a couple of surprises.

Razor's Edge News:
Something is brewing at the Razor. Something Big. So keep your eyes peeled and your ears open for another real exciting announcement coming soon. Collectors have spoken and Razor's Edge has listened.

Today is our last day for our January Gentle Giant Chewbacca Bust Giveaway. So if you haven't entered the giveaway, today would be the day. We will announce the winner tomorrow.

Also, if you get time, tonight starts our Famous Sleeper Sale. So you may want to check out what deals we have in store for you.

Well, that pretty much wraps up this entry of our World Famous Blog. As for the Superbowl, if I were a betting man, I think Peyton Manning is going to pull it off and I think the over is a lock. LOL, but then again, what do I know? Enjoy the Superbowl.

Thanks,
Mike

Happy New Year 2007 Blog

Hi Everyone,

Happy New Year to All !!! I hope all of you had a great holiday. Here's to another prosperous year for all of us. Now let's get down to some old fashioned blogging. LOL.

We will also have restocking on the Clone Wars Bust UPS and other Gentle Giant odds and ends.

Look for new Gentle Giant preorders going up by the end of this month. Gentle Giant has a great line up for 2007.

Attakus
We expect the Probe Droid, Sandtrooper and Oola to be released soon from Attakus as per their last email to us. We still have all 3 of these statues available for preorder.

Darkhorse
Darkhorse announced a very special version of their very popular Serenity Ornament coming out in May. The Serenity in Disguise Ornament will be a Reaver disguised / damaged version of the Serenity ship as seen in the movie. This ship will be produced only in 1 print run, so after they are produced, No more will be made.

We still have in stock some of the original Serenity Ornaments. These are sold out everywhere and won't be out again until March. So if you wanted to pick one up, Razor's has them in stock in our Serenity Category.

Hasbro
Some of you may know and some of you may not. We're a direct Hasbro dealer and will start putting up Saga and 30th Anniversary Case assortments once they become available. All of these cases will be factory sealed and the next assortment scheduled out very soon is Wave 9, which are the final figures in the Saga series. After that, the 30th Anniversary Case assortments come out. So keep an eye out and look in our Star Wars Figures Category for new Hasbro Case Assortments as they become available.

Master Replicas
Master Replicas released the Millennium Falcon Studio Scale Replica last week and Boy is it huge. LOL. We have 1 left of the Limited Edition Version and 1 left from a cancelled preorder of the Signature Version, which was limited to only 500 pieces. Also, we offer free UPS Insured Ground shipping on both versions within the Continental US (48 States).

We will be putting up for preorder on Thursday, January 11th two great new items from Master Replicas. First, will be the long awaited Star Wars Yoda FX Lightsaber and the 212th Attack Battalion Helmet (Utapau Variation) from ROTS.

Hard Hero
We just received our shipment of Hard Hero Iron Fist statues and we have them now in stock. We also have a very limited quantity of the Red Iron Fist Dealer Only Exclusive, which was limited to only 250 pieces. Hercules and Iron Man should be here in the next couple of months as well.

SOTA Toys
The Darkness on Throne, No Good without Evil Statue is coming soon. It's scheduled to come out next month and we have a very limited amount left for preorder. Don't miss out on this 18 Inch Tall x 12 Inches Deep x 12 Inches Wide statue. With a limited edition size of only 750 pieces being produced worldwide, this is sure to be a fast sellout.

Once we get back, we will have alot to talk about and alot of preorders going up, so stay tuned. Since we're not a news service like www.yodasnews.com, we will just post some information and color commentary by yours truly in our world famous blog. So stay tuned...

In closing we wanted to thank all of you for making 2006 a fantastic year for all of us at Razor's Edge. We've had 2 Star Wars Exclusives and alot of fun with our Sleeper Sales and 1 Year Anniversary event. If you think we're going to stop at that, you're in for a big surprise. 2007 should be a banner year for the Razor with lots of exciting new items, contests, sleeper sales and of course ... Well, we can't say anything yet.

Thanks for reading the 1st installment for 2007 of your favorite blog on the net.

Until next time.

Thanks,
Mike
