          12" KISS is definitely not cancelled. I had a case of them sit briefly in my office before flying away to their new collection homes.

          I am thinking ctvt underestimated the response to the big guys and did not order all that many of them. I know they are sold out from ctvt as I was inquiring about more stock the other day. I think you told me you ordered from EE, Brent? Not sure if EE ever got full case assortments of these, or if they ordered cases of Gene and Paul only.

            BBTS already has their stock and has shipped preorders.

              It looks like EE only sold Gene and Paul and both are pre-sold out. I'm guessing they couldn't fulfill all of their preorders and had to cancel some orders.

                  One of the members here is listed as a reseller; maybe he has some of the 12" in stock.
                  Toymans collectables up in WI.

                  KISSmuseum (ironic) has a pretty good deal on purchasing the big guys and the 8" ones in a bundle.

                        that'd make two of us


                        Cancelled? They have the other 12" lines still listed on their site; and the Paul prototype was posted last week.

                        If the 12" line(s) have truly been cancelled, well that stinks...
                        With the amount the license probably cost ($100,000?), cancelling a line that sold out so quick just doesn't compute.

                        perhaps it was an order that got cancelled because they ran out of stock?

                          Totally false. I emailed, they answered quickly and it's an unfounded rumor.
