Yep, as expected and stated feb 2014, this would arrive in June 2015. Same bs from SS. Not surprised at all. This is one thing I hate most is that preorders are always delayed and I slowly begin to lose interest of what I am buying.

Yeah I really am losing my buzz for this due to these delays. If it gets delayed again I am cancelling, there I said it

 

[sunnyx]

You know I was thinking exactly the same. These distributors and studios are just milking us every penny to suit their sales and targets. I have cancelled preorders before because my circumstances had changed because of their silly delays. This really is not acceptable anymore. Megatron was exactly the same. By the time I got megs the buzz was well and truly gone. Any preorder from prime1 other than customers from japan ordering add at least 6 months to their fraudulent waiting times. Other retailers wait upto a year!

Yeah, I don't know what to do. ATM I feel really deflated about it and I can't justify that with how much this is gonna cost to get to the UK... Will have to see.

This is crap. Asian had op long long time ago and now they even have star scream. We from the west get all the delay crap. This is unfair and I'm starting to get annoy by this.

 

[Jofiguer]

What I hate the most is they push back shipping dates and they someone gets one that's painted wrong and when u send a email they reply blah blah blah they are hand crafted. I'm ok with an item being pushed back I kind of look at a preorders will take 12 to 14 months. But that doesn't mean I want to freak out.?the past 5 days I been waiting for a email stating I will be charged for this big boy and all I get is its being punshed back..... I just hope with the delay comes a piece that is 100% to what the pics show.

I think its similar to us Asian buyer getting ss statue months after the US
