Yea I don't mind the slight wait after charging.

I take it some of you youngings never had to deal with the wait 6-8 weeks for delivery thing. . .

I still remember the disapointment when I got a box in the mail and thought it would be both the MANTA and Duke only to find it was the MANTA only... Duke came a week later.
 
Ah the mail ins. I had so many Hooded Cobra Commanders and parachute packs. The gold on HCC didn't last long at all. And the 'chutes, yea after about 3 tosses the strings got all knotted up.

I was thee most impatient child ever, and those 6-8 week waits drove me absolutely insane! INSANE I TELLS YA :gah::gah::gah::gah:

But nothing was like that final week or so, where I rushed home every day in a mad frezzy to check the mail. The crushing disappointment to get home and find nothing. But oooohhhh, how glorious it was the day I got home and it was there, waiting for me. Sniff.....excuse me while I shed a tear :monkey2

Man, how much did the MANTA suck? I don't think I ever used it...

Like I was saying earlier, when the box came I thought Duke would be in there too... My dad and I checked the mail before going to my Nana's house, so of course I was stoked that there was a box for me. Right after that we got in the car and left. I spent the whole day there with just the MANTA and no figure to put on the damn thing.... :( So yeah, the MANTA sucked, but MANTA with no figure sucked far more.

And to think now, all we've done is upgraded to the same behavior but with TA and MD boxes. :lol
 
Yea, sucks waiting a whole three days for those!!!

And I bought 7 things from TA the other day and it didn't cost $70. :hi5:
 
Hmmm. Wondering if I should cancel my EX order (which hasn't shipped yet, I asked them to delay until next week) to re-order using $70 worth of Reward Points and save on some out of pocket expenses, even though I don't earn 135 reward points?
