I just received an email in which I was congratulated as an owner, and I was just about to write it off as a spam message when it hit me!!!

I pre-ordered this thing ages ago!!!

Its a limited edition statue of Legolas and Gimli on Arod made by Weta 8O
and I pre-ordered the frickin' thing almost a year ago...I totally, completely, utterly forgot!!
Holy crap!!!

OMG!

2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

How could you forget THAT pretty thing?? :) Orrrlllyyyyyy. :love:

I guess it's kinda good that you forgot... sure made the waiting a lot easier, huh! :) (I honestly didn't know that Weta was still churning out new stuff! Congrats on snagging one of them, Uen!)

Hehe..thanks guys! :D

I'm pretty amazed at my own ability to forget something like this.
And I saw a preview statue of it at ComiCon last year too!

I'm now wondering if I've forgotten other things as well :?

So when it turns out it's the variant statues where they are dressed as the Super Mario Bros. with mustaches in order to infiltrate a sect of killer plumbers, you'd still go for that option ?

I pre-ordered a bishoujo game and got the e-mail for it that it was completed and ready to ship almost two and a half years afterwards. 8O

I had forgotten about it. My credit card expiration date changed so the company wasn't able to charge it to my card. Unfortunately I wasn't as interested in the game by that point so I didn't give it to them. :^^:

I don't think I've ever forgotten a pre-order ... mainly b/c I hardly ever pre-order things (b/c I'm afraid I'll forget :D )

But, I have responded to a 6-days early birthday thread, all the while thinking: "But I thought the birthday was next week." (just didn't want you to feel alone there, Perv-chan!)

*wonders if there's room on the no-name horse for her*

That's a really pretty statue, by the way! And, um ... if you get those life-size WK statues ... um ...

Yeah. I'll be heading over to your house for a visit. So there's an ocean in between us ... what's a little puddle of water when there's true fangirl lust ... *ahem* LOVE involved? *ebilfangirlgrin* :D :D
