    I would wait till the date, and if it isn’t there, get a paypal claim going and get your money back. Most likely a scam.
    Not an excuse for tracking numbers to not work.

    It's a reason for it to take forever, but if the tracking isn't working that's definitely more concerning to me. You're right that anything can be happening these days, but I'd still follow what @octobotimus said.

    Might be a scammer. Don't hesitate to fill a complaint on eBay or PayPal.

    I stopped buying on eBay, since a couple of years it's full of scammers that seems to be good sellers with 99% of positive feedback, and one day disappear with all the money. I buy everything "big" on ShowZ ALWAYS and little MFT or legends on two or three sellers of Aliexpress. Sincerely it's hard to trust in chinese sellers, many of them has the culture of scamming running through the veins. If you find one to trust, never change of seller.

    Honestly when I'm on ebay I almost always filter by region to just north america. It's the easiest way to avoid being scammed (although it also shows just how few of most 3p transformers are available on ebay).

    Well after searching high and low for this figure. Someone from the Transformers UK group that I\'m in has kindly offered to give it to me. Can\'t say no to that. Should have him either Monday or Tuesday.

    Will do buddy. Anything about the figure that I need to be aware of? I already know about the shoulder joint that JobbyTheHong mentioned in his review.

    Got a V2 shipping from robotoybase by boat! Should be here in two months (if I'm lucky). Already got the updated head from Dragoon this week, so that is just sitting on my desk staring at me now.

    My brother has already got Dragoon on the way, so the moment he arrives at the house I'm changing the head.

    Wow! Beautiful shot! The new head makes a world of difference, but you knew that since you have the recolors.
