Can anyone tell me if they got Dragonsky yet? After selling some Transformer to an online store and got a hefty credit, I have about 7 GI Joe FSS figures coming my way and Dragonsky is one of them and the waiting is killing me!! I hope he ships soon!!

So, yeah. Just received my shipment. News flash: two oversize bubbles shoved into the same shipment completely negate the super special shipping boxes.

I don't know what it will take for the club to learn to stop doing this. It seems like going by the forums they must of had a record number of returns this time with FSS 2.0. heck even my Grand Slam was warped because it didn't have anything to support it and it bent around that cardboard insert. |

i only returned a widescopt who's shoulder peg was fused to the torso parts and consequently tore off when i went to move his arm. i had a few other issues but none that i couldnt live with or fix on my own. the bent card thing though was a hard pill to swallow as a number of figures that i wanted to resell i just ended up keeping or selling loose (and getting less for it) because of the mangled cards. i dont understand how the cards would get so jacked up because the shipping boxes were pristine. they (whomever) mustve knowingly packed destroyed cards...which is pretty scummy |

Everybody, the club gets these pre-packed in the shippers from China. The problem is the manufacturer doesn't always use the most care when packing them into the shipping boxes.
I don't think the wide bubbles are a huge issue either... for example, my shipments (I get two sets) of Big Bear and Dragonsky were all on nice cards, with no warping. So the cards fit... it just depends on who crams them in there. I've gotten plenty of warped and bent cards, too... I agree quality control is out the window on this wave. The club did mention to me that they have discussed the QC issues with the mfg and are hoping things will improve with FSS3. You can be sure they're not happy to have to take all these returns. |

Maybe the people packaging them were mad about grand slam as well, and took their frustrations out on the fss 2 figures.

My Grand Slam was definitely slammed grandly. The card is all bent and the figure appears beat to shit, too. Thank Sagan I don't really care about that one.

I can just see them now, as they're shoving them violently into the boxes, redfaced and all kinds of pissed off..."Take that! And that! And this! Ha-ha! Red pads indeed!"

Just opened my Month 6 figures. Melty bubbles all around and one set of Big Bear and Dragonsky smashed together inside their ridiculous brick of a box. Oddly enough both shitty Grand Slams were in decent enough shape, other than melty/bubbled-up bubbles.
