So after reading here on the forum that the Simon figure was different than what was released at the comic con, I was a little bummed since I didn't pre-order it. (Again cause I though they were the same).
Well, my girl friend is getting it for my birthday, so I asked her to go and see if she could still pre-order it. (This is a day before its' release, in fact I think it was the ship day).
Regardless all is well and I got my figure.
