[Chockles]

I'm glad things started moving on bbts for you guys.

In the future the method of ordering Storm products may change.

Meaning what? Do tell.

Cant tell just yet. I caught up with the Storm guys yesterday whilst walking around MK and they showed me lots of pics for Street Fighter Ryu. They are just waiting to paint him up. I mentioned this in the other thread in here.

Anyways, I briefly spoken to him about the stock issues concerning BBTS and we had a quick chat about it. Lets just say they have looked into it closely and will continue to improve situations like this constantly.

I dont want to say anything just yet before ppl jump into conclusions. For now, Im glad those that order from them will get their products.

 

[Lawrence]

Alright. If we benefit from whatever they decide, then cool.

Yeah, agree with you.

Im sure they dont want their products getting delayed either.

It was weird with this figure because I got the BBTS email notice first that the Olympic Tyson was processing within 10-days.

Then all of a sudden a couple days later, this Tyson (that we've all been waiting for) was available in my BBTS Pile of Loot and my credit card was charged. There was no advance notice.

Initially I was under the assumption the Olympic version would arrive first at BBTS.

Now my regular Tyson shows processing so they will probably charge today.

Either way something must have happened to cause this delay during the whole process. I feel many were expecting the regular version to come out first before the Olympic version.

In the end everyones orders are starting to move. So thats good news at least.

I never check my BBTS account but I just looked and this show's as processing so naturally, I check this thread and I see a welcomed surprise. Nice! Can't wait to get this guy.

Ok they charged for Tyson and I guess the Olympic version will be in about a week

I really do think this figure will be one of the most sought after figures now and in the future. I think it's a work of art, that's why I got it, not that I'm a huge boxing or Tyson fan but with that amazingly accurate specially molded body, great sculpt and extras for $239, I just couldn't resist plus they captured Tyson in his most badass time.

Day 3 of keeping my Tyson body posed like this:

Checking right arm, maybe a bit of residue & wrinkling, but still looking alright.

Checking left arm, oops, already has a hole in it

Not too happy about it, but at least I have a spare body I can pose in a fighting stance on the shelf. If you want to keep your Tyson body mint, I guess it's straight arm poses for your display.

Edit: I was already thinking about it, but I think it might be time to cancel my Olympic pre order.

 

[pjam]

Not good. So this may be a widespread problem. 3 days and holes open.

 

[dapro]

That sucks. I guess I will have to keep him in a museum pose.

Thanks for the info Lawrence. Sad news indeed. I will keep one in straight arm pose & the other in fight mode.

This is a shame will put alot of people off whats a beautiful figure.

 

[Chockles]

Wow, that sucks. Shame to see this happen on a otherwise good looking figure.

If this happens to many people as well that are starting to get theirs now then I think Storm should stop using this new material in future releases.

Thats brave of you Lawrence. thanks

 

[dapro]

Lawrence, where you get this body from?

 

[Unclechopchop]

There's reports of people having both the arms and legs tear on this one. Sucks

 

[Chockles]

I think he said he got a couple of spare bodies, but not sure from where?

I'll be keeping a log of which area these issues happen. Lawrence's issue seems to be a first i've seen in that specific area. The other pic thats been going around has horizontal splits behind the elbow and below the knee.

Have to see some more to get an idea. Not saying I want everyones figure to split:/
