Yeah. $914 in today's money for a seven piece HOA that i will not get back...

Damn man, ive heard about them, what pieces of ****

can you go after them? I thought the owner was well known via facebook, maybe you could sue or seize assets?

No. They took their company limited at the beginning of the year so their personal assets couldn't be seized.
They likely knew this was coming for a long time as they hadn't made any orders from their distributors since october.
I have tried my bank who say they paid my money to Paypal.
I tried Paypal, who said it was outside the 45 day limit, so no.
I have taken my case to the financial ombudsman.
But i am waiting to hear back.

Damn man, how that Kathryn chick hasnt been found dead is beyond me :lol
 
Well i don't think it's enough to do that to her, for goodness sake.
She'll just go to jail and that will be the end of it.

not meaning you would but Ive been reading a number of people who lost TONS to them, one guy bought 15 HT's pieces (though I think he got some back)
 
I ordered through a company of scamsters here in the UK. They were taking full payment up front(Through paypal), and having major delays(It later turned out they hadn't ordered any of the merchandise from the distributer), and they were just stringing us all along until the 45 day paypal expiry date so we wouldn't be able to get a refund.
These are lessons you learn i suppose.
Wow - these are the horror stories that keep me going to the big 3 for everything (SSC, BBTS, AE).
 
It was the price, no import charges and free shipping that tempted me.
I was actually looking forward to getting my HOA, lol.
It'll never happen now.
Yeah, I can understand how that would be enticing. Similar to the too good to be true eBay scams we see every now and then.
 
I heard about a lot of people that were scammed by them. Just unbelievable--it takes a real piece of **** to do something like that. I can't really blame you for not getting one after all that. I like my HoA but if I had prepaid for it and gotten ripped off I don't know if I'd turn around and spend the money on it again. So many things have been released since it came out that I would probably rather get a few figures instead. Eventually there will be opportunities to get a HoA cheaper anyway--it's still available and will be for a long time.

Yeah. At this stage, i'd probably just make one myself, lol.
Four master patterns and resin castings of the patterns would be all i'd need.
Maybe one day.
 
I received my figure today and already have everything repositioned in the cabinet

I still think I want to trade this for the regular version so if anyone want to trade figures PM me

I have all of the figure accessories and the black HOA style stand, but I don't have the regular stand nor do I have the box.


Here is a close up him:

 
Got a chance to buy one for $230 but the hinge on the arm cannon is loose and 1 peg (connects gun to arm) came off. Was wondering what a fellow freak's opinion would be. Go for it?
 
I got this version and the regular version headed my way. I'm looking forward to seeing them in person. Now I'm just trying to decide if I REALLY want the WM mark II (diecast) or not. I'm definitely getting Iron Patriot though.
 
I just received this guy in the mail today. I needed a War Machine in my collection, and I'm not too fond of the diecast Mk II. I like the bulky look of the Mk I over the more streamlined look. Later tonight I'll be unboxing him and placing him on the Iron Man shelf.
 
You're in for a treat. I have both WM Special Version and Mark II and have to say I really love both designs (though the original is no doubt the stronger of the two). I'd be happy if HT re-releases it in diecast, just so I can get the gun metal version.
