    I believe you get it shipped the fastest if you order directly from 3A: Transformers DLX Blitzwing

    Do you know if the 3A courier uses the USPS only? Or can we select a different carrier? I would rather not use the USPS.

    I've personally have never seen an option, and everything I've received has come via USPS.

    Still waiting on mine. But he's made it to Chicago now. Presumably sometime next week I'll have him.

    Glad you got yours.

    Sounds like ours were sitting in the same corner, I was truly convinced he was lost, as it's never taken that long to receive from them. Glad yours has almost made it.

    The last call is for Feb 28th. But do you know when their supposed to ship? I’m trying to decide whether to stick with BBTS or go with World of 3A directly.

    Going direct is definitely going to be better than BBTS.

    Does anyone know:

    1) When will this figure ship out for us folks who didn’t order from one of the designated 3A sites?

    2) What scale is this DLX? 1/24?

    Thanks

    1. Q2 is the estimate for the 2nd batch shipping

    2. It's non-scale. Inbetween 1/18th and 1/15th scale, but it was not intended to be something particular

    Thanks man for the info.

    Q2 is good. For some reason on TCP, it says Q4, but that has to be a mistake. At least I hope.

    That scale works. I’m just curious about the general size and what items I can use with it. Hehe.

    So 3A JUST sent out my replacement chest piece.

    OVER A MONTH AFTER I TOLD THEM ABOUT THE ISSUE and submitted the paperwork.

    UGH.

    Now it'll probably take at least a week or two to get to me as well!

    From World of 3A’s Website (Dropkick says, “Make it pop, if old.”)

    Hopefully, this means we’re getting close to shipping. Ok, not necessarily. Just wishful thinking.

    Yeah I wish we had something more finite other than Q2.

    FINALLY got my replacement piece today! Look how much packaging they used! But my bee will finally be complete again since he broke in January (I've been using blue tack to keep the chest piece on so far).
