In addition, please note that the orders with the T-shirts will be shipped toward the end of the process as the toys beat the shirts here. We hope you enjoy these great figures!

Prime Evil did me a massive solid and ordered one for me on the last day they were available so I'm getting mine right before the shirts start shipping at the earliest. The only thing I'm worried about now is getting Runamuck before I move in June-July. Still this calls for a celebration!

I thought I'd dodged the bullet... but just found a stack of fraudulent charges on my account. Everyone, DO check your account. :-(

While it's unproven that this has ANYTHING to do with the credit card company FunPub was using to run the initial batch of toys, it can't hurt checking your accounts to make sure everything is in order.

And I'd also add, no ill will toward FunPub over this.... I'll put blame where blame is due, on the guilty parties. Those guys will get prosecuted. :twisted:

Something has been troubling me.

I keep getting emails in my spam folder addressed from USPS titled "USPS Delivery failure", in which it keeps telling me (and several others listed in the receiving address) this:

Your item delivery tracking number 0853756 has failed. We were unable to deliver the item to the specified location. You can correct the shipment details online by filling out the form attached to this message. Thank you.

Has anyone else been getting this or just me? Does it relate to the shipping of these two Club figures? Or, is it just plan old spam?

I've not gotten that. Mine are out for delivery now, so sometime today. Did you choose USPS? It doesn't hurt to make a call if you're concerned. I chose FedEx which was cheaper and that's been updating properly.

I've been getting those to for months but let me ask you this: how would the United States Postal Service get your email?

It's a batch spam. Ignore it.

I chose FedEx. Though, ever since I preordered the figures, these USPS spam emails have been popping up time and again, with more than just my address listed in the "To:" address.

Though, isn't it "UPS" rather than "USPS" that one can choose as the shipping service? I don't recall seeing "USPS" as one of the option (unless they're the same company).

I mostly brought this up since these emails first started up not longer after I preordered the two club figures.

If you chose FedEx, ignore the other ****. It's obviously bunk then. Check your shipping status through them. I'm fairly certain that all three were an option. They aren't the same at all. UPS is a shipping service just like FedEx is. USPS is the United States Postal Service.

If it has nothing to do with the former processing company FunPub used that's the biggest coincidence ever.

I don't blame them personally for the hack (FunPub) but I COMPLETELY blame them for the crappy way they have handled public response to the hacked accounts.

If there's a link in the email, hover your mouse over it and see what the address is, chances are, you won't recognise it.

OH

HELL

YES

The very small downside: all of the reds in his robot mode are very obviously painted over black plastic. They don't look bad or anything, it just has that obvious paint-over-a-darker-colour thing.

The upsides: The headsculpt is great; given the simple face and lack of colour it still manages to be detailed, accurate and exude personality. The red windshield looks beautiful, and the fact that he has a G1 accurate rubsign on his chest/roof even though he has the Decepticon logo writ large on his feet/bonnet is awesomely ludicrous. The joints are real tight, maybe even tighter than on my Gen. Wheeljack. All round an excellent figure. Can't wait for Runamuck.

There are numerous reports of people getting two of the same gun with their SG Drift.

Check yours out.

This is actually what I was coming to check for...if this was a mistake or not. Not really sure if I should worry about it as there's no large gun for them to attach to anyhow.
