Okay, scratch that. They aren’t responding to his emails and did not send a tracking number. Will update as I hear.

Hmm...yeah let's be wise and wait until wee see if your buddy got his stuff. Sometimes no tracking number or email responses with these obscure sellers is not a problem because you still get your stuff. -BUT- I don't want to get scammed (Paypal is not offered there) so I'm gonna have to avoid buying that set until we hear from your buddy and his experience with that place.

When did he order from them? How long has he been waiting? What did he buy there?

He bought the HQ Attack base! Helluva price, but I think it was 2 weeks ago. We’ll see...

10th set built: Raging Typhoon with Blowtorch!

ATV in the back (kind of like the sled was stored in the front of the WHALE)!

So, so, SO SAD... :/

I was 10 for 10 on building sets with 100% pieces included. My last set, the Attack HQ, was missing all 3 HUGE blue platforms. I asked Derryl Depriest, and he said all extra parts were tossed around 2005. I’m just flat screwed...can’t build any of the three sections further.

Will try to find Lego parts to make due. :(

Did you get it from that website?

No...a guy on FB. And I don’t believe it’s his fault, just my bad luck with whoever China hand-picked to put together my set. :/

Neat! Makes me think of the truck from the G.I.Joe: Renegades cartoon.
