    I'm curious if anyone has gotten their Grimlock yet who ordered from Robot Kingdom.

    On the 14th I got an email saying it had shipped. It also had a statement saying something to effect of, "Let us know if you haven't gotten it within 2 weeks". It's not two weeks yet so I won't bug them yet.

    But the tracking stuff they sent me says that it is destined for the States (which is correct) and on the 16th it was "delivered". I haven't ordered stuff from them so I'm not sure how long stuff usually takes and I'm antsy to get him in hand. I'm assuming I shouldn't be concerned with "delivered" status and just be patient.

    So I ask again, is everyone still waiting for theirs or am I unlucky?

    Use your tracking number in the USPS tracking system, it'll give you a better update.

    Ah, that answers another question. I wasn't sure how it would be arriving. So thanks for letting me know that I could track it via USPS.

    Unfortunately it seems the newest information is that on the 16th it passed through the sorting facility in Chicago. Blarg. Chicago is only half a day's drive away. I hope it arrives soon.

    I paid for EMS too, and got it last Friday.

    If they said "2 weeks" you either paid for registered mail, or registered mail small packet. Which means it's probably held up in the Xmas backlog.

    Bought mine from ToyArena on eBay last Wednesday, (early morning) they shipped same day and I had it Friday. Only $5 more than RK, which if you're spending that much for a Voyager anyway, is really negligible.

    Yeah that's what I suspect but I'm getting impatient. :p 

    Edit: 3 hours later, guess what arrived... In my defense though I didn't think there would be mail today.

    I've ordered a number of things from overseas lately, and I've found that generally tracking stops once it gets to US shores. I ordered SRC Big Volfogg from AmiAmi, it tracked to the US, where it was recieved in Chicago at a sorting facility, where it apparently sat for the next 2 weeks and it magically showed up on the doorstep, tracking still showing it in Chicago.
