    My Airwaves came in this afternoon. Not sure if it was luck of the draw or if it was because I ordered 2 of them but they came in an actual box. I’m really happy with Airwave and so far he’s my favorite modulator/weaponizer from WFC

    Amazon had better get more Quint Judges. At the very least to cover the pre-orders they haven't even filled yet. I ordered mine back on March 14 and they've pushed back my delivery to October. Booger faced Amazon people.

    Just got charged for my Air Wave (and MOTU Mega Construx Point Dread set). Now I feel a little bit more confident they will arrive by the ETA date (unlike my last two moved up then moved back items)

    Blitzwing was supposed to be delivered today, but never shipped. Amazon pushed it back to a Friday delivery, but this time charged my card so I'm confident now he's showing up. I'll wait to get that sweet $26 sale price and to not deal with the Portland hazardous air quality more than I have to.

    Friday works better since the experts claim this stuff will start clearing up by then so the drivers don't need to deal with it either.

    I got my SS Skipjack thankfully along with my ML Deadpool 2 Domino figure. Both came in a box together.

    I'm still honestly shocked how much COVID is still impacting shipping/supply chains. Some of my bandmates work in UPS and the flow of parcels hasn't really stopped or slowed down much at all.

    Yeah, we're still in a pandemic, but...it's stable. It's not April anymore, folks.

    Is it because the shipping places are prioritizing the medical and ppe stuff? I do see tons of hand sanitizers now at the bnm.

    I think things are slowly getting back to normal but it takes time. It'll be interesting to see what happens if Prime day is next month.

    Which is phenomenal. Happy that's happening. I just don't understand why lately I'm seeing delays in shipping of a week or more. Amazon I'm seeing far less 2 day shipping than I used to, and I live in Brooklyn (hardly the middle of nowhere)

    I see that too then I have instances like today where I was charged for Vintage Stormtrooper Luke and I'll have it tomorrow, whereas it was originally slated for October, then Thursday.

    Calling it now: One of the top 10 most popular threads on TFW2005.

    I keeping mine in it's box should I be lucky enough to get the Box set. If I do I'll be selling it. And ironically Amazon DID ship that in a box so it's in really good condition.

    Last I heard and it was been a while Amazon warehouses were ending up as breading grounds for Covid-19. Almost as bad as the meat packing industry. Even if it's half as bad as that it still must have a strong affect on shipping times as you have less packers available.

    I concur. I would definitely subscribe to a thread that is JUST pictures of packaging fails. With stories where applicable. I love this idea.

    Got my Airwave. Hoping Allicon and Quint Judge can be filled by the end of the month.

    Is there an Amazon US listing for Bluestreak yet? I thought I heard somewhere it could be added to a Wishlist.
