TFSS 5.0 Is Live For Members

[griffin]

An email today from FunPub lets us know that they aren't expecting the toys to arrive until "late Fall", which would be November... warning those who chose the instalment option that their 2nd & 3rd payments could be very close together.

Hello Subscribers,
Just a quick update to remind you that the FSS 5.0 figures will not ship until late fall. As stated at BotCon, based on the manufacturer's schedule, we may end up having to ship multiple products in the same month in order to have them all shipped by the end of our contract.
In addition, this also means that for you on the installment payment plan, that the second and third installments may be due very close together. When we have a firm ship date from the manufacturer, we will let you know. We are currently trying to get them to move the date sooner.
Thanks for your support,

If they end up having less than six weeks to send out the six shipments, FunPub will make a lot of extra money from what they charged to cover six separate shipments... not that they haven't made a lot of money from postage over-charges before.

It's refreshing & pleasing to know that FunPub are getting on the front foot to let Subscribers know of the situation.

Perhaps people should buy from the aftermarket if they feel postage cost is too excessive by FunPub.

With the end of 4.0 shipping now, I got to thinking of how I want 5.0 to go...

Limb 3
Limb 4
Toxitron (or any order for those 3)
Prime
Megs
Blue girl + bonus....

Would have had the pretenders the last 2.... But then the bonus would have bulked out the box too much...

Damnit damnit damnit!

Email from the club overnight has pushed these into next year :-(

due to delays at the manufacturer, these should arrive in time to ship around the end of the year. However, there has been a change in the process. These figures will be packed into only three shipments, 2 figures, 2 figures and the final 2 figures with the bonus figure.

This means that there will be an installment payment due in January and one in February. The billing dates will not be set until we know the shipment is on it's way here.

Is it really a suprise?

Is it really a suprise?

Not really... but the last update had them shipping about now, and finishing by end of year/Jan. Now this pushes us out to like March....

Which annoys me as I want see all my CW Combiners together, and the one spot i have in the house to show the "current line" is too full now....

And Current line is now TR, so CW needs to get stored....

Right now I don't even have the space to open and have UW out....

But yeah, mainly i just wanted to see all 17 Hasbro combiners together, and then laid out in lines by mould, then they were to get stuck in a storage box

It's frustrating and not surprising all at the same time.
