    I PO'd it from ShowZ and got it last week. I'm in Canada. That was a four week wait due to Canada Post Mule service since it was in and out of customs in a few hours.

    Seems like a few people in Canada and a couple in Europe, but as far as the US, very few got theirs yet from ShowZ, Baba on Ebay, or most anywhere else.

    USPS is the absolute worst when it comes to tracking. Even overnight or property packages. It will never move for 2 weeks... and suddenly out for delivery the next day. Horrible service.

    We need a soundoff of who ordered it from where and still hasn't received it. I wonder if the CAPONE text threw up red flags?

    (edited for detail)
    I ordered from Baba's site. Shipped on Nov 29th, left China on Dec 1st, not a word since.

    I ordered from Baba on Ebay, shipped via China Post on 29-Nov, left China on 01-Dec, not a single update since then.

    I'm in the same boat but curious how everyone knows it left China? Mine just says this from 12/4:

    Processed Through Facility
    BEIJING, CHINA

    I've been in touch with Baba and I believe he did send them, as I've yet to have any issues and only reply I've gotten so far, even today, is he's trying to reach his agent in providing an update on where our packages are, though I was also told mine is in the US somewhere but I have no proof via tracking to confirm that.

    Apparently the US had some blizzard and they've been behind every since in processing packages?? With buying from him on ebay and his site, even getting some items in the last few weeks, I've yet to question him but with the amount of time that has passed on my Capone, I'm losing my patience on this one as well.

    What blizzard? It's snowed but I've gotten shit from China that I ordered after Capone and in less than 12 days. There has to be an issue with this product at customs.

    Can't speak for everyone else, but I'm using 17track's app. Under Destination it says China, Beijing, Processed through facility" but the last two entries under Origin are "Beijing, delivered to air transport" and "Airline departure."

    Storm in the US, which I found odd because you would think the packages would show them here then. IDK. I'm just passing what I was told and again, I ordered stuff many months ago I just got and items I ordered as late as a week or two ago, which I received without issues. Capone was ordered in the middle of those items or even with some of them. Either this "agent" he's dealing with is FOS or are packages are sitting in a airplane hanger (had this happen with 2 packages going to Germany after Thanksgiving) until they feel like processing them.


    No different for me and I checked that too:

    Origin Post is Preparing Shipment -> We have received notice that the originating post is preparing to dispatch this mail piece.

    That's actually not bad. We've all been waiting since early December with no updates since. I've seen packages leave China stop tracking and show up too but its within a 3-4 week worse case scenario.

    This is my exact scenario as well.

    I sent Show.Z a PM via Facebook and he told me that if there is no update after 45 days, he will consider the package lost and will resend. I don't know if that was intended just for me or as a broad policy. So I'm going to hit him up on 1/21/2020 if I don't see any updates in the tracking.

    Shoot @ShowZStore a PM about it or tag them in a question about it in their thread. Either way they are very responsive.

    Just got Montana and he is fabulous. One question, his chest panel has a tab on each side that doesn’t tab into the slots fully. Are the pegs too long? To clarify, they are tabbed in and very tight just not all the way in. I have the torso extended as far as I’m able to.

    My only complaint with Montana so far is one heel spur is free-swinging loose. It’s not an issue when he’s standing so nothing I feel obliged to fix. Otherwise, love him and love Henry and can’t wait for Capone to escape transit purgatory.

    I'd like to buy about March a second Roadking or Capone and later as soon as availablle on US shops,Ebay or others ,the other bot.

    I think that Roadking could be availalble for a slight longer time because is a reissue and maybe Fans Toys release more bots in their stocks,but if on March I still find Capone I'll buy him as first.
