Getting Swindle, Blast Off and Springer!

So glad it's on a payday too!

Yep, just randomly checked my PoL and there they were. No e-mail, though.

News Credits: 10 · Fri Aug 27, 2010 9:10 am

Swindle, Blast Off, SDCC Blaster and Universe 3 pack are on their way now. Woohoo!!! It just sucks that they will probably take about 4 weeks to get to me

SWEET!! I was trying my damndest to refrain from dropping the cash on these guys but gave in a couple days ago and ordered em. No regrets there!
Only good can come from Munitioner and Explorer. They really are the first of there kind in TF history in concept and execution and i'm stoked to be owning them.
Piranacon is on the way too!

That sucks dude. It's a shame it takes so long. Oddly enough, one of my employees is in Scotland on vacation right now. If things were times different she could have flown it over and shipped it to you there.

I'm just excited because along with the Crossfires, I also have Defender, Henkei Voyager Prime, Henkei Hound and a Car Robots God Magnus coming in the box! Pretty good for $322 shipped!!

Thanks for the offer but it would have done no good. I am working in South Korea just now however, I did manage get Universe Bruticus here and I have been able to pick up a lot of the reissue Galaxy Force figures so all is good for me.

Bah. Figures it would be the day they charge my credit fees, now I have no funds available. :BANG_HEAD:

Looks like I have to call the bank to get a payment through quicker. #-o

I wonder how many POL's are going to ship once they get Explorer and munitioner..Maybe they already have them and just don't wanna spend all day taping up boxes the size of refridgerators!:P

A lot.

When City Commander came in, they got backed up like 4-7 days. A lot of us had shipments pending to the warehouse for like 2-3 days. They'll be busy.

(Copied and pasted from the ToyArena thread for relevancy...)
I think BBTS' hours of operation have ended for the day and I didn't make it outta the warehouse. Was hoping it would be sent out so I'd have it Monday, but now I gotta hope it just makes it out of the warehouse on Monday. :-(

I hope Hothead doesn't come in stock next week now or that'll really make me wanna... :BOOM:

This is me too, it is the only thing that has stopped me from shipping.

Yeah, but I figure the only thing more annoying than them getting Hothead in a day or two after shipping out my order is if I held off for it to come in stock and it gets delayed again...especially a long delay! The way I figured, I want it, but worst case I can let it sit in my next POL for a while and I won't jones for it like I would the Bruticus set...along with my other goodies that have been waiting to be shipped. I love the POL feature, but I have a hard time letting it build up more than a month or two. I'm just too impatient!

Looks like they got 'em workin’ OT this weekend...just got my shipping notice! Might be here Monday yet! (I'm less than an hour from BBTS headquarters...)

Hmmm, have you ever gone to BBTS and asked for a guided tour Kibble? I would love to take a look inside the headquarters.

Sun Aug 29, 2010 10:15 am

I'm keeping my Swindle/Blast Off limbs... just not sure what I'll be doing with them.

Any suggestions?

Got my stuff today...this set is amazing!

As for the quoted, I've been to BBTS once to drop off some stuff I was trading in for store credit, but they won't even allow you pick up orders as it's against thier policy so I'm guessing policy probably also says no tours...but I can't say that I asked. At any rate, I saw their front office part, but not the inside of the warehouse.

Got my shipping notice today. I hope my POL arrives by saturday so I can spend the upcoming three day weekend playing with all the goodies I have coming my way.
