What? I'd had some wine.

Short Stormtrooper is an absolute must.

Yea I bought from him once before too and it was about the same amount of time to me. I don't blame him for this unless something on the label was botched somehow. Just seems weird that both mine and Jordan's are held up at the exact same time in 2 different locations.

In Chicago

Chicago and NYC (Jamaica to be specific) are two of five International Service Centers for the USPS and everything that goes in and out of the US goes through these centers, where they also clear customs and are subject to potential inspection. They're crazy busy. And in my experience, they're regularly one of the points where tracking can break down. It's not usual, but it's possible for something to be held up there for a couple of weeks.

I've had it happen numerous times with packages I've sent to US customers over the years directly from Canada, so now for all larger orders (and anything I sell here) I use a private courier company to truck my packages across the border directly for submission to the USPS. Super fast delivery, no customs issues.

Troopers look great, ZE. Expensive as it is, I'm glad I went with 4.

Now people are coming around.


BTW - simply outstanding shots. Stark, simple, awesome.

Yeah, nothing at all since 14th. In Chicago which isn't very far from here.. Makes no sense. Guess it will magically show up sometime this week for us. I hope, lol.

I thought I saw some pics online of a bunch of postal workers posing some new HT Stormies. You'll get them when they're done having their fun.

But I LOVE them, so there's that.

I was always pro-Short Stormtrooper.

And thanks, barely had time futz and snapshot before heading out to be a grown-up.

I like the way the armour hangs on the short one, and it gives the group an on-screen vibe.

Haven't decided how they'll be permanently displayed, yet. While I don't use stands, the bases pop nicely. Mouse Droid is really cool too, and the DLT-19 is very nice, although I generally prefer E-11s for display.

This figure and the HT Robocop are my votes for figure of the year. Outstanding.

They're looking great, can't wait to grab them, but it's a little early still in the year to be casting votes, IMO. February's not even over yet and there are plenty of releases yet to come.

My single version came today! I must say I'm very impressed! So happy my SS Stormie has a buddy now.

I better stop checking this thread before I order a second one.

It's all about 4 now.

 

[Cixx]

I'm just getting one. Man i can't wait to see the HT Solo head on this.

 

[The Jerker]

Preordered the single but thinking the 2 pack is the way to go. You gotta have two and thinking a pair of long ankle pegs would add some height if I wanted two tall boys.

 

[bransen2099]

Still on the waitlist for the EX. Not sure if the Guntank is worth it should I just PO the regular

 

[TonTon]

I'm on it too but It's not at all worth it, just waiting for a coupon to order the regular and then I'll cancel the EX.
