You aren't the guy from Ohio that printed those Burke chairs, are you?

Nope, not me.

Second order comes tomorrow. Tomy has knocked it out of the park with the fast shipping.

 

[xlowes]

Out for delivery !

Still waiting for shipping confirmation.

Well, once they started shipping them, sure.

They are on target. People were crying a few days ago that they thought that they would get nothing and the cargo was lost. Aside from the plug and seams, which everybody thought would be difficult, they have been spot on. People wanted daily updates, and that doesn't happen when people are working behind the scenes trying to fulfill orders. Fall 2023 was always the target!

I've seen some images starting to show up on Facebook. The shuttles looked pretty rough. Some had cracked struts, and one side looked like a blob attached to the rest of the body. I know the shuttles are not the centerpiece and are a nice little addition. I'm just wondering if the better examples were released to Australia early, and there could be more issues with the ship itself on a larger scale.

Dang! I should get mine today, so I will take a picture of it.

Those were posted on FB by another buyer !

Maybe write TOMY customer service for a replacement shuttle? Certain they'll do right and fix it.

Looks to me like those shuttles might be about the same size as the old Micro Machines shuttle? I'll find out soon. Mine's out for delivery now

Well yes Fall 2023 was the target , till they announced a more specific one of Oct 6th, 2023. If the Shuttles are commonly that bad.. that may be what was holding them up-- do we ship with them looking like that or not?
