Mine was released from NY Customs this morning.
So hopefully I'll get it by Monday!

 

My blue metallic came yesterday from tfs-express, everything was in good shape, boxes were good, and no issue with Swoop so far, but I haven't had time to fiddle with it much yet.

 

Show.Z just updated their listing for the Chrome versions... something about replacement head and feet kits coming with HQ-01R.

Can someone elaborate on the issues so that I don’t accidentally break something when I eventually receive mine?

 

The feet are loose and poorly designed. The paint on the head chips easily when transformed. There isn't anything you can do about either issue.

Edit... you can tighten up the feet.

 

My metallic Swoop's been in NY Customs for a few days now. Hoping it gets released and sent on its way soon! I refuse to mess with the chrome version. I'll wait for the metallic one to get here to mess around with the figure in more detail.

 

Mine’s been in customs since May 2nd. No worries though I’m sure it’ll show next week. At least I know where it is!

 

@least yours has moved from China to the States. Mines is either on a plane or Boat circling China for past 5 days or so LMAO.!

 

Yeah, it didn't take long at all to get from China to the States! That damn customs tho, that'll get ya every time. Haha! Hopefully it won't be too much longer. Today is day number 4 that it's been in customs.

 

Yea I think ShowZ Spoiled me from the last time my GP Sludge came in within 5days last year! I recall paying for it Sunday then Monday got shipping notice then Friday or Saturday it was on my doorstep.! Was super shocked by how the F##KING FAST THAT WAS lol.! Anyways keep us posted! #MetallicClub Haha

 

My Blue Chrome arrived today. Us Seller though. Any tips for a first time to avoid chipping around the head?

Besides not transforming him. Lol.  

 

Fraid not. The dino head snaps into the bot head causing the chipping.

 

That’s what I was afraid of. Even though them ship him in Dino mode... the head is splayed open and beak down as in bot mode. Now I know why.

 

The head on my chrome blue is all chipped up from transforming to Dino mode. Swapped it for the clear beak/head and no chipping at all.

 

Quick question to all but what tracking site are you using for all your Overseas purchases?? I know of 17track and Cne.com but just wanted to know if there's other reliable site. Thx in advance guys!

(As we speak my Swoop is either on a plane/boat and is just circling China LMAO)

 

A few random pics of mine:












And with the man of the hour...




Luckily no chrome chipping... but I've been super careful, and gentle. The ankles are so-so... and the left wing base hing is not super tight like the right (slight movement when tilting the figure back-n-forth)... maybe a drop of floor wax in to the hinge.

But... the colors, size, stability, presence, overall looks... BOOM! Amazing. A stunner. A+ figure. No question a step above Fans Toys in the Dino-Wars.

 

Metallic has arrived!

 

LOL this is torture for me Hahaha. Hope to get mines sooner or later.

 

Does anyone have both the chrome and metallic? I'l like to see some comparison pictures, I've already have the chrome version and I'm thinking about get a metallic version during the next ebay flash sale.

 

Tf express shipped the metallic ones.

Things are getting faster in Giga realm LOL

 

Woot Woot! Shipping is showing this morning that my figure was released from NY customs! Now it's just a matter of days. I wish it showed the arrival date tho. Bout time!
