Thanks for all of the kind words guys, I REALLY appreciate it. Shakka I'm hoping to have the time frame WAY down in the next couple of weeks (round about the end of October), so as long as things go according to plan over the next few weeks that 8 week time frame will be more like about 2-4 at most. Warinthefloor one of the main things about me is that I am easy to contact, and I always will reply to your messages, oh and the casting in colors thing I really enjoy that. I even do clear, and metallic colors. On here I'm still under my old Rodimus VTS nom de plum, but on most sites I go by Vortious. I post the list of items that I'm about to start casting as I get ready to start working on them in my FB group, so that you guys can look it over real quick, and check for your initials. If you ever have any questions feel free to email me at [email protected] |

He has some of the best casted products and an absolutely fantastic selection. Plus, he will do special orders.

Ok Warinthefloor I tried making the Slaughter head in the tan like the Roadblock figure it's kind of an odd color of tan. it seems to have an orangish tinge to it on top of the yellow, white, peach, and brown that is usually found in some of the more fleshy tans. So it took me 3 tries to get it right:
Attempt 1) Attempt 2) (In the photo it LOOKS like this one is perfect, but in hand it's WAY too orange) Attempt 3) This one kind of looks off in the photo, but is almost dead on in hand |

So, I ordered from them last June and I still haven't got the order yet. I was getting updates from him before whenever I asked. Something would always come up but he kept saying end of the month.
Now, here we are halfway through April and still nothing. Additionally, he stopped answering my emails 3 months ago. Today, I just emailed him again asking to cancel. It's taken so long that the items I ordered from him are stuff I don't even need anymore. At this point, I'm just hoping I'll either get my money back or the actual parts and then I'll just sell them off as I don't even have any need for them anymore. Anyone else order from them halfway through last year get their stuff?

Took 10 months last year to get my order and I said never ever again from this very poor acting seller.

Last two orders took 11 months and 8 months to arrive. Took 5 months of pestering him on Facebook to get the first. Lots of "Your order is almost ready to ship".
He has a lot of unique offerings in his store, but delivery windows are becoming out of line IMO. When I first started buying from him, he was regularly in the 6-8 week timeframe. I don't think his sales are keeping up with his expenses. From his posts on Facebook, I get the feeling that he's using the money from new orders to pay for the materials for older orders. I'm not sure how much longer he can keep it up. He recently stopped taking new orders for a month to try and catch up a bit. Hopefully all his past due orders get delivered. I'd hate to see another well known caster go out on a bad note.

I'm still waiting on a September order, but I knew going in that it would be a while. The sad part is I placed an order last February. I tinkered with it a few times then paid. Waited all that time until I got it in September and somehow left off the one thing I really wanted from the order, I had to place another.
What can you do? There aren't exactly a ton of options.

Correct. He admitted as much to me in an email stating he needed more new orders to pay for the old stuff since he has bills to pay. Not throwing shade at this fella, just the facts. Unfortunately its a tune too many folks are singing these days. Lucky for me I found an expert caster that is always timely and courteous and communicates more than needed (but it is appreciated).
