Sovereign Studio news/updates 2009

[SovereignStudio]

Sorry, guys. I've been trying to hit the board every other day at least. The second run of skins are done and are being packed up. These will go out later this week. This run should cover the remainder of the list.

Morbo, your Returns Batman will be the V2. That's why I did the upgrades now rather than later. I have three orders currently for Returns figures. The clean-up on casts from that old crap mold were so time consuming it made more sense to do the upgrade now, do it once, and be done with it.

Jediguy, I did not receive a recent PM from you. My box was full on Saturday, it may not have come through. Please resend it.

No Mola yet! Is he out the door yet?

 

[wHySoSeRiOuS203]

So...he did a crow figure...certainly there has been pics posted...could someone PM me a pic of theirs? Or even post it here?

 

[morethanatimelord]

No sign of the accessories for my Mola Ram figure yet Shawn?

 

[MaulFan]

Hey Shawn, got an estimate on when Loomis will be shipping?

 

[SovereignStudio]

Stuff is getting done, guys. Slowly, but it's getting done. I'm a bit stuck due to cash flow vs. supplies. It's holding up a couple things. Right now I'm working with what I already have on hand, so I'm mostly getting a lot of sewing done. This will take care of a lot of the Indy stuff and give me a lot of wardrobe on hand for the other projects when I can get resin and such in. This sucks. I'm looking for a part-time job, if I can find one that fits with being a stay-at-home Dad AND only having one car Probably stocking shelves somewhere on graveyard shift.

 

[Morbo]

that's a bummer Shawn.

I guess that means a little bit longer to wait for my stuff? Oh well it's not the end of the world by any means.

I hope things pick up for you soon. Best wishes to you and your family.

Three going out this weekend.

From the 24th. Did the Molas go out over the weekend as posted? please confirm shiping addy. Still Nothing.

 

[eighthsamurai]

hey shawn, when you get a chance and see this post i'd really appreciate an answer dude. i've asked a few times whether my skins have actually gone out or not. i'm sat here waiting for them like an idiot and it's held up some customs with other guys for 8 months. i understand if there's a delay or they haven't gone out yet, but please just shoot me a pm and let me know either way.

 

[Jediguy]

Shawn I sent you a reply. You said you didn't receive it the first time. I've sent another yet you still have not replied.

It's been almost 3 years since i placed my order. I'd appreciate it if i didn't have to constantly chase you for it

 

[Gruff Old Bear]

Shawn: I'm assuming the skins did not go out -- if they did, the list did not get finished. Really happy to hear that you're working at the sewing machine. Jackets! Hang in there bud.

Haven't heard anything about my order yet either. I'm in no rush for them, as I haven't had the time yet to work on them anyway (if they had already arrived), but I'd just like to know if I should expect them any day now or if I shouldn't worry about them for a couple of weeks more.

This is how things are working now. Don't worry, it's all good news. I'm now working on a rigid, set schedule. Like a regular 9 to 5 job. This schedule has been set up for me by a good friend and client who does this sort of thing for a living. I only work 8 hour days, 10 if needed but as a last resort. No weekends. Who knows, maybe my wife will even start talking to me soon if I have free time to spend with her. He's had me on this schedule for three days and I've already gotten more done than I have in the last two weeks. It's already working well.

My week is now split between my backlog and work to be sold on ebay. And it's ALL tightly scheduled. This week I will be working on backlog stuff on Thursday and Friday. I'm resupplied now, thanks to a loan from my new "supervisor". It's all working so far, better than it has in a long time. And I FEEL better about it, too.

My wife has the skins, I'll check and see if she's shipped anything.

JEDIGUY... I have you stuff on the list, it will be worked into the schedule soon. I'll keep you posted. Yes, it's been three years. I shipped you TWO Indy figures at that time because you had said you did not receive the first one. I did not hear from you after that. When I ship something and don't hear back from the client, guess what? I assume they got it. Maybe you should have started "chasing" me sooner than three weeks ago instead of posting your "three year" comment in my thread with no details just to make me look like an ^^^^^^^.

Back to work. I have a 1:00 pm deadline. I will be posting updates 3-4 times weekly.

 

[seniram6]

Shawn, when did you send out mola ram exactly its been a week and half and no sign of him.

 

[Jediguy]

Shawn, I totally forgot about the figure as I have several other figures on order. I just happened to check my old emails the other day and that alerted me to this figure that is owed to me.

You claim that 2 other figures had been shipped to me. I never saw either of them. I also never saw any proof of postage. Just your word saying that they were shipped. If i saw the postal receipts , then fair enough. However, none of that was ever shown to me.

I did email you at your email address but those emails were not replied to. So please do not say that I did not chase you sooner. I did Pm you. But you seem to reply to some and ignore the rest as you see fit. I did not want to make you seem dishonest . I tried PMs and Emails. Seems like this is the only way to get your attention.

Previously i Pmed you. You said you didn't receive the pm and so I sent you another. Again you did not acknowledge or reply to it.

I always try to work things out . I prefer to keep this sort of discussions private

I've bought items from several other members here worldwide and none of the items have ever gone missing. Maybe it's just rotten luck coz I know sometimes ^^^^ happens. But twice from the same person is a little strange. Maybe something's going on at the local post office. I don't know but i suggest you check.

If it's really a problem, why not use a tracking number to resolve the issue once and for all?

Furthermore, you've shipped so many items to several other members. If you have time to get started on customs for others, would it not be fair to finish my item first?
