Sounds like the 1st wave is on schedule, but we shall see. Odd that they don't have shipping prices up yet for those who got the notices.

So what is the first processing day for this? Everyone seems to be getting different charge dates. My final flex is the 15th but want to pay it off ASAP. This is easily my most wanted statue this year so the sooner he gets here the better.

 

[The Josh]

The 18th it seems.

 

[67L88Stingray]

Mine is on the 15th and nothing yet. I hope I am not in the 2nd wave.

 

[Adolfo]

My shipping charge is on the 10th which is the first day of the Saurons shipping from what I heard. 10th and the 15th are first wave.

 

[The Josh]

Flex pays may get charged on the 10th but unless things have changed in the last 24 hours he's not even processing until the 18th.

 

[Adolfo]

I wish I knew how many Saurons are in that first shipment, 250, 500? Who knows

Did the email that came out yesterday say anything about split shipments? Unless it did I don't think there will be. At least in the past they've announced when there was a split shipment. Like I said I asked a friend in CS when this was expected to arrive and she said they would begin processing orders on the 18th. So I'd venture to guess that's when things will begin for everyone.

 

[Adolfo]

I basically just heard it from a source that the first couple of flexes get it first because of the limited amount of first Saurons coming from overseas. Not all 1500 Saurons are made. I wish I knew how many we're sent overseas in the first shipment. Hopefully enough for all those that ordered. For example If this batch from China has 250 Saurons and 400 ordered it a few folks gotta wait

 

[The Josh]

I guess we will find out. I'm going to do all I can to make sure I get mine when they start processing on the 18th.

How are they working that if the 10th and 15th flexers are getting them first, but it does not come out until the 18th. Should it not be the 20th and 25th guys who get it first in that case?

 

[Solarsailor]

It could be to do with location also. I seem to get things early because I'm in Australia (just an assumption though).

If I've just been lucky or what I don't know but I always seem to receive pieces quickly once launched.

I know with Popcultcha I got Sagat fast because of this but I'm not sure about SS.

I wouldn't be worried about missing out on first wave. If anything it's a blessing in disguise. First wave statue's come with the higher percentage chance of something being wrong on the statue that usually get fixed down the line in later waves.

 

[DarkHumor]

From what I understand from my email was that from the date I got the notification, it said Sauron will be ready in 21 days, which is the date they charge my card as well, in full on Wednesday the 18th. So I believe he will be shipping a few days after that. I think theyre just collecting all the flex payers at once and wont ship out until after the 18th.

Do they? I would think by the time we get them and complain it would be too late to do anything about an error. Same thing kind of is going on with my 89 hot toys batmobile. Lots of problems with packing marking up car, and I was in the second wave and they did not fix the problem until way after.

 

[Danstangoe]

Whats with my date being moved to the 9th then, does that mean ill be in the first wave, cant see anything in the email about the 18th

That looks like the 10th to me. What date did you sign up for?

Remember the US put the month first, then the day

So to us, 10/09/13 will be the 09/10/13 in the US
