^^^ That sucks... If they did not meet the 2-day delivery deadline, then definitely contact them and ask for your money back since it is supposed to be a guarantee. Hope it all works out for you, mate.

My DX13 was a no show last week too but was delivered today. I don't know why UPS was delayed but I also got my Mechanic Tony today so all is good.

I'm really diggin' this one. No problems with the chest light, thank goodness.

I definitely plan too. And I'm going to try for the rest as well. My brother dealt with UPS drivers everyday during his previous job and the driver told him that ALL of their delivery dates are actually guaranteed - not just the ones like 2 day Air. But of course when I called up customer service tonight (which was closed, of course) they said that ground packages scheduled for delivery between Dec 11 through Dec 24 are not subject to that policy. Total BS. But that 2 Day Air from Amazon should definitely be covered. I mean it was free to me since it was Prime, but I definitely want back whatever amazon paid them

I get they are busy right now, but a package (2 day air no less) scheduled for nearly a week ago and continually is 'out for delivery' and 'rescheduled for tomorrow' day after day isn't right. I've had USPS, Fed Ex, on Trac, and some dude in his POS car come to my house delivering things and not once has UPS come (they've got a total of 4 packages that should have already been here by now for me). Something is definitely going on. There has been no weather issues here either they could use as an excuse. I just don't see how a 6 day LATE 2 day air package isn't near the top of their priority list right now. If things are so bad that I'm not at the top of the list at this point, then I don't know what the hell is going on at my UPS hub.

Sorry for the vent, but I just can't possibly imagine what excuse they could give to justify not only Stark being bumped 2 business days (4 actual days with the weekend) and another 6 freaking days late.

Anyone else expecting this figure or any other package coming from UPS this holiday season, I suggest you watch your tracking numbers VERY CLOSELY!

Out of random curiosity for those who have the figure does your cognition headset have the little frosted area that sort of looks like glue?

So how many of the chest reactors are comming in broken? And how to turn it on? (where is the switch and where is the plastic thingy that needs to be removed?)

I'd like to know this so I can test if mine works the little time I have to inspect the figure at my local store.

Jeez you're like the 5th person to get a non-working chest rt, i'm kinda scared to order one of these now.

Guess I'm not the only one. Secret base said I can just take the figure back to exchange.

Also it's good to get the new stand, but a bit disappointed with the paper floor. Even if it's cardboard would be better.

Maybe it turned white on that corner due to being bent?

That's glue residue. Certain superglue/Krazy Glue Cyanoacrylate adhesives, give off a white gas residue when they dry. It sometimes wipes off though, so try that first. If not ask for a replacement.

Mine should be here Friday. Probably headed under the Christmas tree though!
