What items are you awaiting?

Mainly PE Beast Gorira

I got a ship notice from them yesterday for Cordon and Quietus. Just need to get Masterpiece Laserwave and all my stuff from them will have been delivered.

I’d guess their MP-29+ and MP-36+ will arrive in the same shipment. I’m waiting for MP-36+. Hopefully soon.

I msg’d them about my mp-17+ prowls the other day. Got a reply saying they had them, didn’t speculate how long but mentioned they were hoping more orders were going to arrive before cny.

Other than the golden lagoon 3 pack Mp-29+X2 and mp-36+ are the only ones outstanding which will no doubt arrive after the Chinese New Year... hopefully

Anyone else order FlameToys Tarn?

Nah just PE Beast and MP BW Megs (I know of that ones delay)

Anyone had an communication from over the last few days?

The sounds of the cicadas chirping outside is pretty much reflective of what it feels like to wait for my overdue TBI order...

This is on their website:

Due to customs and shipping delays; Expected Arrival is now Q1 2019

Update - 5/2/19 - Small Shipment has arrived from a different supplier; Main Shipment has yet to be cleared by Customs.

We will continue to bring in smaller shipments to fulfil orders until our Major Order has cleared.

That's disappointing. Anyone with a better understanding of the situation understand why it's stuck with customs?

The excuse that I hear from others is because they use combined shipping containers from China because it's supposedly cheaper. But even if this is true, the prices aren't that much cheaper than getting toys directly from Japan.

I'm currently waiting on MP Cordon which I've already repurchased from a Japanese store and it:
1. arrived 20 days ago
2. cost me about half the price of TBI

I'm done with these guys. I just want the toy that I paid for. And it's such a shame because last year they were still pretty reliable and had excellent service (for me anyway).

I find that very surprising. Was this brand new or used? A casual search of NY and HLJ gives a price before shipping of ~$130-$160 compared to TBI pre shipping price of $180 but their shipping would likely be lower.

I'm just waiting on my only order of MP-36+.
