The Energon Pub

I just received a FedEx confirmation that my Punch/Counterpunch has been picked up by FedEx. Included is a tracking number of my very own. Looks like that July 1st thing was dead-on.

Still haven't recieved a shipping notice, did they just ship out a few this week? I was hoping they would ship them before the holiday. Anybody else recieved a shipping notice?

It's already the fifth, and I haven't received a notice from FedEx.

Also I have never gotten a reply from Angie Morris regarding my messed up Dion since I sent the messege on the 16th of last month.

If another day or two goes by without something either showing up in my inbox or on my doorstep, I'll be sending nasty e-mail.

They fixed my problem. I got a prompt response and a replacement head. But I do feel ya about the whole P/CP this is just waaay too long to wait since when....March?

No shipping notice here either.. For either my P/CP or my freebie Dion.

You haven't even recieved Dion yet?!
Dang. Heres hoping FedEx didn't screw this up.

I got my Dion before Botcon, but still no message about P/CP. Kinda getting worred about that.

Finally got the shipping notice, hope he is here by the end of the week, Yay!

Got my shipping notices today. I ordered two P/CP's but not at the same time. I figured they would still ship them out together, but apparently not. Anyway, I don't live that far from their headquarters so I'll probably have them tomorrow.

edit: double post

My notice came today as well, someone must have been busy on the 6th!

Well, I finally got the shipping notice today.
But much to my surprise I had actually ordered it USPS rather than FedEx.
I wonder if that's what made it take longer?

They ship USPS Priority mail, so it could take a max of three days, but usually it takes two. Everytime I get stuff from TFSource it takes about 2 to 3 days as well right after I get the shipping notice.

I think after I get P/cp, I won't be ordering anything else directly from the TFCC. Their means and business practices are odd...

This is a email I got from cathy

The deadline for club figure address changes is March 16th. Any address changes after that date is subject to $5 resend fee, only because the labels are made well before shipping the figures out. The shipping of the figures are done at another locate and they have to have the labels of all the addressees. You may use a credit card to charge the fee or mail us a check or money order. As far as your Punch/Counterpunch you should be able to check your email for the tracking and verify the address it's shipping to or send me your invoice number and I can double check for you.

Thank you,
Cathy McNew

So if you move after March 16th, your bascially screwed? I sent them the new address and they have yet to change it in my order invoices..No email confirmation for P/cp either...


I'm sorry but I would rather spend a few extra bucks and get everything from BBTS, at least they have their "Ish" together...

Nah nah. I meant if that's what made it take longer to send the invoice. But that's not likely.

It's probably because I was one of the people who ordered it a little later than everyone else.

For folks anticipating the day theirs will arrive, mine made it from TX to DC in four business days. Haven't opened it up yet except to make sure it was in there... man, I love those boxes. Packaging is perty.

Well I ordered the day the item became ready for preorder, and I'm still waiting for mine as well. From what we were told a while back was those who ordered the SG Cyclonus and the P/CP got theirs first for some reason.

I think they are stupid in actually stating we had to wait after BotCon because those attending would miss their item being delivered. That excuse was just absurd to me. I paid, I have to wait and wait, and wait. This is an ill run club and they should do better by those because the club ain't free.

I don't think BBTS will be getting this item, or a whole lot of them, and if they do they'll charge full aftermarket price. I'd rather get it direct for what I paid, than to pay triple value within days of it getting into people's hands.

Got my P/CP notice today! Still no word on Dion, though...If P/CP arrives before Dion does... should I be worried? Do we even get a shipping notice about the freebie figure?

There is no shipping notice for Dion.

I'd be worried. They started shipping out at the beginning of last month.

Sounds to me like these guys just want to play favorites with the people who give them more money.

Ok, good..., that's one mystery solved... This means it could potentially show up any time now.

Vicalliose wrote:I'd be worried. They started shipping out at the beginning of last month.

Actually, that's not terribly uncommon for me. I live in the middle of nowhere, the northernmost tip of an island most people couldn't find on a map, things tend to take a long time to reach me.
This gives me hope, hope that Dion is en route and just taking a while to reach me.
I'll keep everyone updated.

I just got mine in hand! My roomie came home from work and asked if the mailman knocked. Since he didn't I had no idea my Punch/Counterpunch was here and waiting. I have to say, I love how the Collector's Club packages the figs. Wish Hasbro/Takara Tomy took notes and followed suit. The internals don't have to be foam inserts but the box packaging is a must in my opinion.

Got my last one today.

That's a wrap I suppose...

I just got word my last ones will be shipped today.

Finally got my one...It's nice, the packaging. They toy is nice, but seriously that is one small head.The detail is still not on par with the G1 toy which I do own, but the idead is heart-felt.
I give it a 9.5.

Is this head mold based on the Rebirth or Japanese Headmasters, because I always felt that Punch had the same face as Prime.
