This happens on many USA and even Japan sales. If I pre-order from Amazon Japan it ships to the UK.
If it's stock it won't. Same with the USA. One week it will ship the UK, then it won't, then it will.
Also I think they use a lot of delivery companies. So you could order the same item and get 2 different companies. It may say iParcel but someone else could still bring it.



Second weekend of combining these guys and 1 arm still to do. Almost a shame to merge this guy but I don't think I have the shelf space for his arms lol

 

When you accidentally go out and get pissed on a Sunday and you've got to be up for a lecture in 3 hours...

 

You'll get used to it.

My Amazon Slugs is coming through DHL - spooked me that they have my phone number in a kind of "we know where you live and what you're doing......so here's your parcel, don't have nightmares," sort of way.

 

Sounds like someone's doing Uni right!

Then I guess I've had one heck of a run with it being i-parcel pretty much every time I've bought Amazon US since they stopped using Royal Mail as in-UK final delivery agent, and it looks like them this time too as the tracking number works on their site, or at least works as in it says the delivery has been electrically generated and they're awaiting the item and, er, hasn't budged from that yet, darn it.

 

Remember yesterday I said I was having a ‘sort-out’...?

It’s amazing what you find!!

 

Mines coming through DHL too but they didn’t take the time to text me. I bet it turns up during the half hour I take the dog for a walk.

 

Ooooh, that explains the text I got from DHL. I was thinking to myself, what could I possibly have ordered in by DHL?

And now I know. And knowing is half the battle! Wait, wrong franchise. Eh.

Also, this planned tube strike on Thursday is going to royally fuck me up. Normally journey to the Uni is a swift (ish) Tube journey but Thursday I'll have to do it by 'bus' whatever that is. And it'll require 'changing', not once but twice. And it'll take at least one and a half hours, which accounting for missing 'changes' means I'll probably never arrive?

Blaaarrrrrghghgagghhgh.

 

So, will Sluggy make to the Home Counties from Las Vegas quicker than a box of My Little Pony toys will from Heathrow Airport.

I know where my money is!!

 

Suddenly, a preview of Power of the Primes Hun-Gurr:

 

Big happy birthday to @Dreago - have a great day!

 

And now, as my brain properly wakes up, it occurs that the buy before my prior order (of a couple of Sharkticons) actually arrived a fortnight or so before tracking caught up and realised they'd actually been delivered, so who knows when the Slugster will turn up? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Meanwhile China gets it ON as, despite my concern about the National Day holiday, it seems my Siege box has now left Guangzhou (one assumes the airport there) for the UK!
MUCH. EXCITE.

 

@Seeaich What was the total damage on that if you don’t mind me asking?

Mine came in at £135 via a reputable eBay seller on that side of the world...just idle curiousity...

 

Happy Birthday @Dreago you gorgeous hunk of man!
Got all my Thrilling 30 out this weekend. Well nearly all..(where's Cosmos? On the floor upstairs, apparently.
I really, really enjoyed this line. While sure, there were some duds (Alright Blitzwing?) most of it was fucking amazing. First Titan. First Leader class. Introduction of Legends class for your good old fashioned minibots. A super IDW accurate Skids and Springer. SPRINGER! Whirl! A bunch of incredibly fucking good Beast Wars characters!
As much as I have really loved the Prime Wars trilogy (and I kind of consider T:30 a kind of prologue to Prime Wars), I kind of miss the random hodge podge of Thrilling 30. I'm not sure we'll see such diversity in a line again, but one can hope!

 

Have a great birthday @Dreago!

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY @Dreago!

But was there actually 30 toys on that line?

 

If you mean Thrilling 30, yes - there was 30 figures 'released' under that banner.

 

Happy birthday, Dom!

All the best

well, I guess it very much depends on what you mean by '30' and 'toys'. If you mean 0 and lemurs, then yes.

 

Also, I've been itching to get Thunder Erebus to work as my deskbot so I can stare and play all day.



All the best
