funtax posted:Nope. Already delivered. I didn't find the shipping notice until last night because it wound up in my spam folder. BBTS's advice was "write a letter to that address and ask them to send it to you". Do you have any friends that still live in the area? It may be a long shot, but if you have them go by the house and ask in person about the shipment, it might up your chances of getting it back. Tell them it's for your kid's birthday if you want maximum sympathy. It worked for me once. It wasn't a 10 year delay; I had moved only a few months prior. But I had a pile of loot that originated at my old address, and even though I had changed my customer info, and ordered new things in the meantime, the POL still used the address from the first thing ordered. The box was still sitting at their house, as they had opened it up, but didn't know what to do with it. My friend picked it up and shipped it back to me.

Tell them it's for your kid's birthday if you want maximum sympathy. Hehe. Sadly, our departure from that area was the result of an apocalyptic collapse of the place I worked at the time. It scattered everyone to the winds, almost immediately. I figure it can't hurt to try the "write them a letter" gambit. I'd probably help someone if the situation was reversed, though I figure I'd need to find some way for it to not be insanely inconvenient for them and/or for them to have to spot me like $30 in shipping costs, sight unseen.

When's the last time you made a purchase through them? It shipped to your current location? If so and this is their fuckup just keep escalating and take it to social media if need be.

I just spent about an hour posing Susanoo into the perfect final shelf pose and I don't know why people would want to flip this guy because he looks cool as gently caress. There are a few areas where the orange paint needs a little touch up but other than that I resolved the wobbly panels I had (my fault, his hip armour pegs into the little arms it moves around on and I didn't spot it) and apparently I'm the only person in the world who didn't get a review sample that can lift him up by the turret without fear of it coming off. Strong contender for my favourite toy I've bought this year and I don't even like Bludgeon that much.

Weirdly when I went into my local Toys R Us this morning they had one of the Toys R Us exclusive MP10's (the tall red box one) in a semi-beat up box. I went ahead and snagged that. I only have the year of the sparkle one for that mold so I'm excited to have the normal color version. Also picked up Trypticon. I was going to hold off due to the hip ratchet concerns but then it was there in person and there was money right there in my wallet... Just a few more hours till I'm off work to see how that works out for me. Edit: Oh I didn't realize MP 10 had been or was being reissued. This box is a new release then and just beat up some because who knows. DisposableHero fucked around with this message at 21:57 on Jul 27, 2017 |

Many years ago. Shipped to the old address. The error is almost certainly on my part, missing a "ship to billing address" box or something when I updated the billing info. Kinda wish they listed the address on the pre-order verification email, because that didn't wind up going to my spam folder and I feel like I would've noticed the bad address then.

I don't suppose you, or anyone else with Susanoo can scan the instructions for me? It looks like I got a pretty good non-floppy one but no instructions in the box so whoops. Getting in touch with Kapow to see if they can help but hedging my bets can't hurt!

Thanks very much! Kapow got back to me with "they're hard to find, have you checked behind the cardboard insert, that's where they are normally hidden" which is just on the borderline of useful and patronising.

There isn't any! Its just a naked box with the thing in, nothing for it to hide behind at all, I even quadruple checked and shook the box extra hard when the man said a thing just in case I was being a dummy. Also I'm too weak to change man to tank. Please someone come play with toy for me.

Yeah there's supposed to be a cardboard insert behind the plastic tray he sits in so there's more than just the instructions missing for you. I briefly unboxed him at my desk at work when I first got him and then had to quickly unbox him again because I forgot to check behind the insert for his instructions, so I was almost the kind of idiot kapow are expecting you to be.

So I missed the chance to preorder that BBTS exclusive Titans Return set. Anyone know if they're going to do a second run or am I pretty much screwed? I did manage to get lucky and find the TRU set at a con.

To anybody interested, that Optimus Evolution 2 Pack with the Orion Pax remold of Kup is back up on Amazon for 30 bucks. Glad it hit as I almost got it from TFSource for double, ha.Other posted:Siege on Cybertron? RK has it Huh, interesting. Wonder when BBTS will charge their preorders, then.

Magnus isn't her head. He's an extra Titan Master that comes with her. It's like the Rodimus and Thunderwing in the boxsets, he just turns into his own head. Edit - she's also not exclusive, she'll just be available at Hascon ahead of a wider release.

No joke, dude posted the receipt and everything. BBTS and someone else reported a lot of their stock arrived in sun grade condition, Diamond delayed the ship date on their so people are assuming they are damaged units.

There's also a functioning USB charger that turns into Optimus Prime:  Not pictured is his little light up sword. Speaking of Grimlock:  I really REALLY want that stupid card set!
