Transformers Club Figures shipping - update!‏

Got my confirmation for 2 of each. Sorry to hear others are having to wait. I'm still waiting on Dion. I'm in Florida and I've yet to see anyone from my state say they've gotten theirs. Oh, and no ship notice for him. I have the bare bones membership though. No tracking for USPS if I remember correctly.

Great, I have to wait longer because I only wanted P/CP? Brutal.

From what I gathered on the TFCC forums only people who actually purchased Dion got a shipping notice. If you're getting him a freebie you won't get a shipping notice. I still haven't got mine either.

I received Dion on Monday (no notice as it was the freebie). Received my shipped confirmation of 3 P/CP and 1 Cyclonus yesterday

I'd like for people to stop pretending that emails get "Lost" or "Blocked".

If I'm smart enough to navigate a website and use a credit card online, I'm smart enough to check my junk mail box with my email.

I should have gotten an email confirmation by now, but I haven't. This means one of two things, either...

1. The package was not shipped out in the order they claimed, either this time or a day ago.

or

2. Someone was not careful enough to scan the USPS tracking and notification numbers on all the packages and my shipment will just appear with no prior notice.

Also, the Club forums are down.

Well, I only ordered one P/CP, so I'll get nothing for a while, but I can deal.

CP states exactly how I feel.

Same here man, I'm a first timer with TFCC and nothing on Dion. Hopefully soon though..

Dear Transformers Collector's Club,
I am not going to Botcon, nor am I traveling anywhere else. Please send me my P/CP now.

thanks

2 I'm keeping. 1 is trade bait. Never hurts to have something people really want when looking for other TFs I really want

I should clarify.. I received my shipped confirmation "email" yesterday. The figures are scheduled to arrive on 6/17 (tomorrow). I'm sure someone will beat me to the 'punch" (awwww... terrible pun).. by the time I get home from work tomorrow to rip them out of the packaging

Urgh... I haven't received an e-mail, so I guess I have to suffer the penalty for all you Bot-Con go-ers.
CURSE YOU BOT-CON!!!

Yeah, yeah.. not like I bought 20 of them Anyone can trade for it if they have any of the below I'm looking for:

WANT LIST - Items can be MISB or MIB (100% complete, stickers unapplied) G2 figures can be without the packaging, but they must have the tech specs and instructions. Unapplied stickers are still a must, though.

JAPAN CONVENTION REISSUES
23 Skywarp
G2
Grimlock (Turqoise)
Slag (Red)
Snarl (Green)
Starscream
Devastator - orange
Superion
G2 PARTS
Snarl Decal Sheet - 100% unused - (There's a difference compared to the G1 and repro knock-offs; authentic G2 only please)
BOTCON
Virulent Clones (Set of 2) (2005)

Just got my notice for shipping. 2 CPs, 1 Cyclonus.

This is ridiculous. They have the item I ordered, P/CP, in stock and they won't ship it because I didn't order a Cyclonus as well.

I used to be a RLC member for years. Mattel has done some hokey things to thier HWC/RLC members, but we never had to wiat so long for an item we have been charged for in advance. I have never been on the fence about a club which feels slightly ill-run, but the way they do business is not great at all.

I could deal with the wait, the shipping container, and the mess of an unpainted head.

But because I did not order SG Cyclonus, I can't get C/PC until after July??? Because they have to get ready for BotCon?? That's not my problem, customers who already paid for the item should come first, and should receive their item based on when they paid, and what type of shipping they used.

Also, if they knew they were going to do this, they should have announced this in advance similar to how HLJ would let you know they will be closed due to a Japan national holiday or even weeks in advance so you know whether you want to order or not.

All these clubs don't have the intention of the customer or member, they just get the money and screw you later.

Bull---t!!

Just when I thought TFCC was getting back into my good graces they pull this crap...Up your butt jobu I didn't plan on getting Dion until like august anyways..Seems like the closer you live to funpub the longer it takes for free stuff to get here.....

No kidding, I live in south Oklahoma and I still haven't received Dion. Now I have to wait till July to get the two P/CP's I ordered.

Such a tease...and a big screw you because you didn't order both figures and they have to cater to those who are going to botcon. The situation sucks.

Mattel hosts the Hot Wheels Nationals every year,but that never delayed us from getting club items when they are ordered. I smell shenanigans.

The more I think about this the more it annoys me. They have my money and my figures and they won't ship them because my order doesn't meet some random criteria. Hell, had they let us know up front that they would ship out orders to those who purchased both figures first I might have ordered the Ironman variant Cyclonus just to get my P/CP's faster.

So instead of shipping out the items in order of how they were received they're going in order of who ordered the most. I wasn't expecting the figures until July anyway due to the slow boat from China thing but this is just crap. Really gonna have to rethink my membership next year.

Whoa whoa whoa!

Hey now, how can anyone complain about the business practices at Fun Publications?

They have your money and your complaints, many of which have been heard and promptly ignored over the years. That's right, promptly. Other businesses will take a long time and may never get around to ignoring your complaints and/or suggestions. Not FP. A speedy trial is what you get. And that's the definition of fair.

I thought your parents raised you better. Fun Publications has worked very hard to maintain the same level of erratic and disorganized decision making for going on FIVE years now. That is consistency that you simply can not put a price on ($40 every year or $50,000 for Non-US residents). No other business based entirely on Mr. Toad's Wild Ride has ever been so good at surprising the hell out of you any time you put money into the system. Speaking of stories, every email we get after some message board figures something out for the Club is just like a new story itself. Take for instance the mystery novel known as "What the F does Punch/Counterpunch actually look like before you buy him?" That's a best seller. Sold out in a weekend. ::Spoiler alert::



Snape kills Dumbledore (with the Voodoo magic contained in the shrunken head of Punch :0 )

It's very annoying to hear you all complaining. Honest to God.


(Sorry FP... :/ )

[Sorry that you screwed up Punch's head so bad.]

Counterpunch, you are one spiteful slut.

Yeah well complaining makes us feel better about the situation.

Yeah, good times... I wonder where that complaining originated from anyways?
