It still ends up being cheaper than buying 14 figures at retail.
UPS won't just leave the package, huh? Let me guess, you have neighbors within arms length of you, right? Yeah, that's gotta suck. I think the UPS guy drops packages off here no questions asked because he doesn't want to drive up the driveway until the next shipment comes in. Its Cobra Commander I don't understand. Granted, he's the "big bad boss" but we already have two of that exact same mold out there. At least Duke got a new outfit. I'd've gladly taken another Alley-Viper or the Blue Shirt Officer instead of CC. But I reckon it is what it is. Last edited by Hicks_Royel; 07-16-2010 at 03:01 AM.. |

Yeah, UPS does have a fairly random schedule. Is there anyway you could pick up a package at the nearest UPS Store or have them leave the package at your local post office? Better yet, I know FedEx will leave a package once you've signed off on their missed delivery slip...
Or is that just me coming up with crazy, yet somewhat reasonable ideas that they'd never go for? |

I think I have to pick it up after 3 delivery attempts or it gets set back to the sender. I've never had that happen. I came close once because someone else took the first 2 slips and I didn't even know the item was sent UPS (it was a record).

I used to order from SJ all the time, cases of JvC mostly. Never had a problem.
*checks their site for Mantises and Crimson Hydras* Nope, didn't think so. |

I got a new HISS today and I have to say it's pretty wicked. I haven't put it together yet since I'm going to do some painting first. TRU's buy one get one half off is a great way to spend money.

My problem with the working treads is that putting any pressure on them to actually move immediately pops the cockpit module upwards. Maybe that's just mine, but the catch that holds it down is really on a hair trigger.

Try pushing the tank assembly down a little more and then manually pushing the catch pin forward over the lip of the frame housing. I've got a good 1/8" lip on mine to hold things secure.

I have done. Makes no difference. Any attempt to get the working treads rolling makes it pop.
