    Lawn darts, they called them... very tragic.

    Maths be hard...

    They're there. Look for the ESTIMATE SHIPPING line in the Shopping Cart, click on it, enter the required info, and you'll get 2 choices: Express and Standard. When they included shipping with their preorders, express was always the default... sigh... Now, for me, to decide whether I should go with KC ($82.90 with Express Shipping, no tax, but pay upfront) or BBTS ($89.07 with their Flat Rate Shipping, plus tax, and only pay the initial $79.99 upon release -- which would be 1+ month after KC -- and the rest when I'm good and ready to ship)... decisions, decisions.

    If you were mispronouncing it wrong, wouldn't that mean that you were pronouncing it right?... ......

    ^That NEEDS to be made into a Hi-Metal R toy...

    ^It still seems to be available for purchase (as a pre-order???) from Amazon Japan, but for more than the initial pre-order price, minus tax, plus 1600? Yen DHL shipping. https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B081D3DZP8/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A2CH9EI32YCRAU&psc=1

    DHL sent me an email this morning stating that my copy is getting delivered today, instead of the original 29th.

    May you live in interesting, or weird, times...

    Ditto!

    Warhammer 40K Ultramarines Primaris Intercessor

    Here's the unboxing (photo spam incoming): The toy box is an outer sleeve and inner window box affair. The crush damage can be clearly seen once the shrink-wrap is removed. Happy to report that the inner plastic trays seem to have done their job. Top tray and bottom tray sporting their contents. And here is the big guy Hi folks!...

    Well, my Ultramarines Primaris Intercessor figure arrived today. Props to Games Workshop for the fast shipping, but definitely a few demerits for utilizing too small a shipper box for the size of the item and zero cushioning (no airbags, no packing peanuts, not even crumpled newspaper), leading to this crush damage: It's not horrendous, but still a bit frustrating and disappointing. Oh well, as long as the item inside is intact...

    Games Workshop sent me a shipping notice that mine's been shipped, to US, with a scheduled delivery date of 5/11... they sent it via FedEx at no additional cost even though I chose the free shipping option. With the whole coof situation I expected this to experience severe delays in both release and shipping, so I'm pleasantly surprised.

    ^ Maybe your resident poltergeist just really dislikes the Miranda Class and its variants...

    Hi-Metal R

    mechaninac replied to joppewo's topic in Toys

    Hell YES for a VF-2JA or two, and even a Faerie Squadron VF-2SS. As for the Metal Siren, I'm not keen on the design -- I find it rather ugly, actually -- but I would buy one just for the sake of completion... the Destdroids from M2 would be really cool too, but we have a better chance of liquid water on the moon at this point. Also agree with your other wishes, but alas...

    ^That's not the fault of the comment(er), but a reflection of just how pervasive that particular crap is nowadays... once bitten, twice shy. It's the sad and disappointing reality of current "entertainment" that one can't look at anything that comes out in this new paradigm without a major dose of skepticism and weariness. Edit: That being said, this does seem to have the classic vibe going. It may end up being a case of putting its best foot forward in preparation for a major bait and switch, but, personally, I'm cautiously optimistic.

    ^ The carnage!...
  22. mechaninac
    I did like the fact that they ended up exactly where they started as well; it was refreshingly contrary to current year narrative tropes.

    This latest episode... so many face palming moments, but in a good "you did what?!!!", "that was stupid" and "oh crap!" way.

    I like that theory... They stared into the abyss. It stared back. And they went mad from the experience.

    Meh! When the Studio changes the title of a movie, in a panic, after its release, you know it's a dud... if not an outright dumpster fire. Birds of Prey: The Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn ... really? Who was the Mensa luminary who came up with that pile of garbage and thought is rolled off the tongue and actually improved things?...
