Got my FSS 8 invoice and international shipping has gone up again ($3 this time). Are they seriously saying the shipping has risen twice in just a few months, or that the new figures are even "heavier"?
In my naivety I always used to think the club was "by fans, for fans"... This shameless "end of days cash grab" puts that theory to rest for good. Pity it's too late to complain to Hasbro that the club is tainting their brand.

Even better... on the Ryu set, they molded the thigh-bar in flesh color. So any time he does a high-kick, it's the scene from Basic Instinct.

I believe they stated that that expect 8.0 to start shipping in November, and that we'd be paying for all installments before any were actually shipped.
Again, nothing has changed in terms of the contract or expected arrival of the figures, so i have no idea why modifying the payment schedule was necessary, but i suspect they want to ensure all subs are paid for so they'll know immediately if any are delinquent for resale purposes. |

That's the Club's fault not ours. If they'd done a great job, Hasbro might have been inclined to extend their contract. And if they'd done a great job, we'd have the ARAH line-up essentially completed by now, rather than a half-done job and bunch of international figures and random stuff taking up slots in the FSS and JoeCon sets. So yes, our wallets will rejoice.
