    This is true! Make sure to post the time you ordered so we can make a graph based on the time between @orindlt 's first order and yours so people can use it to determine exactly when they should expect their orders to ship!

    Interesting but just going to point out that because they did yours in order doesn't mean anything other then it happened that way for you. Need more data to make a reasonable conclusion. At least people are getting their beloved 31As!

    Haha, I kinda didn't want it but seeing the recent posts about them made me want one again. Then I forgot to buy one during the last sale and told myself I wouldn't buy it unless I could get the same deal (thinking it wouldn't happen anytime soon). And here I am with one soon to be delivered. Oh well, i love F-14s and don't have time to build them (models) like I used to. Seems really nice. Also got me thinking when I saw that custom VF-1 with the Jolly Roger paint job and AIM-54 missiles on the wings...Did the VF-1s have some sort of swivel tech on the hardpoints to adjust the angle whenever the wings were swept to different angles? It's something I've thought about before but don't know if a definitive answer exists or is it just an artistic license thing?

    Thank you very much! Or in other works, I hate you guys for giving me the extra push and enabling me to buy that Calibre Wings F-14!

    There is another 15% off coupon currently?

    Whenever possible, I keep everything including the boxes. I still have the original boxes for most of my vintage Transformers and other toys as a kid. Another reason why my life is surrounded by piles and piles of boxes within boxes.

    I get that! As for getting hit by a bus...I have no regrets. Enjoyed what I have in life thoroughly. But since you bring it up, I would be curious about how my family's reaction to getting continual shipments of all kinds of toys months after my departure would be.

    I think the world collectively broke Mandarake by continually refreshing frantically in hopes to nab a 31A!

    That's what I'm talking about! As for the fear of not getting one at all...that is REAL! I nearly flipped my lid when I saw that I missed the preorder opening at NY. Luckily, people pointed out other options even though they are more expensive. I got one shipping notice today so at least I'm covered. Hopefully, my other order will also come through.

    HG?! They are so insignificant to me I hardly notice they exist, let alone where any such community would be.

    BTW, do I have permission to post this elsewhere when appropriate? I have a feeling it will come in handy.

    Even if it's because they didn't get their stock yet? Its only been a few days since the actual release counting a weekend too. Anyways, if some of you want let yourself be aggravated over it, that's your life. Why not sit back and have a drink while playing with the toys you already have instead? I'll add to the complaints that I was not able to buy from a place that offers shipping by boat, which would have saved me some money. Oh well, I'll get them sooner which seems to count for a lot!

    All good and understandable but... This. I highly doubt any company is sitting on anyone's stock and purposely not sending it out. There could be endless explanations for why it might take longer to ship something out. To me, it seems better on the nerves to just sit back and let them do their jobs. Less stress in everyone and you still enjoy the toy in the end.

    I don't get this must have now or never mentality. Did you have these items the previous decades of your life? No. Will you eventually get them if you paid for them? Yes. What difference does it make if they come the next day or next year? You still end up with something you wanted that you never had before.

    Hahaha, that is awesome! Tru dat!

    That's the way it shoul go. Sometimes I get too overwhelmed with stuff and it just has to go wherever it fits for the moment. Then I deal with it again later.

    Lol, the art of stacking boxes...I'm embarrassed to share pics of my home. I have stacks from floor to ceiling in just about every corner of my house, free space or not.

    Got my latest and one of my favorite Marvel Legends figures so far, Mr. Fantastic himself, Reed Richards. While I'm at it, here's an update of my main Marvel Shelves: I have tons more scatered around in other displays throughout my house plus another collection worth that I have yet to open.

    I never said anything about the show, I said you should get the valk.

    Get a VF-0S now while you still can without having to refinance your school loan for one.

    How much is your time worth to you? If you have the extra time it will take to deal with to spare, go for it. I personally wouldn't get one to customize but if I didn't have one already, I'd definitely get one at that price to have it as is.

    Preorders at NY actually closed pretty early for the 31A. That's how I missed out ordering from them. They usually have TWE preorders open to around a month before release (Mirage Super Parts still available now) but for the 31A they closed early December.

    Nice job!

    Yep, this. Carboard put together with tape is called a cardboard box. For all the stories about a missing package, there are probably hundreds to thousands of packages delivered with no issue and even then, it probably had nothing to do with them. They are my goto shop and I never have any anxiety about getting what I paid for.
