I live in Winnipeg Canada. To prove it, i took pictures of the gauntlets next to today's newspaper. I just got my gauntlets and cape today in the mail. From making payment to receiving the items, it took 6 weeks. They both look amazing. The gauntlets look exactly like the gauntlets on my 1:4 hot toys Batman figure. The cape is the exact same material as the cape on my 1:1 Batman bust (HCG). I saw this forum before I ordered the gauntlets and had my doubts with all the problems people have been having but I still had to take my chances. I could not find any other online company that made replica gauntlets and I needed them for the UD Replicas dark knight suit which comes with ugly looking gauntlets. I really feel bad for those who haven't received their items yet, but I really hope that you will receive it one day. I'm sure FUC is gradually working on the backlog.

I had excellent email communication with Fan Universe. I sent a total of
20 emails to
fanuniversecreations@gmail.com since May 24, 2014. Fan
Universe replied back to almost all the emails within a matter of hours. A
couple emails were replied a few days later.
Sarah is the name of the employee I dealt with throughout the entire
process. I had seen this RPF forum prior to making my order and all the
problems ppl have been having. I asked FUC about it because i did not want
to wait a year for gauntlets. Sarah assured me that the old staff are no
longer there and that they would ship my order within 2-3 weeks
guaranteed. This is the only online company I could find that makes
replica gauntlets that i really really wanted for my display/costume, so I
just took my chances. Paypal and my credit card gave me 45 days to file a
claim if I didn't ever receive my products, so that was my backup plan.
See Paypal Section 13 - Protection for Buyers - Eligibility requirements:
https://www.paypal.com/ca/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full#13
In order to able to file a claim and protect yourself, you must make the
purchase according to that section.
If you have any questions, i'll do my best to answer you.
