I haven't seen any unboxings online so I had assumed maybe no one's had shipped. I guess it could be sitting around in pre-shipment for almost 2 months.

Anyone else in the same boat as me?
ordered from BBTS, came two days ago. Fabulous

GELFLINGS BEWARE
A monstrous creature, loyal to the Skeksis, is on the hunt.

Woohoo! I was hoping for some news or reveals or teasers. I'm not really interested in the mini-epics. But definitely curious what replicas they might be working on. And of course the statues in addition to the Garthim.

Very nice! I hope it's about time for another Skeksis preorder/announcement. Considering they specifically designed Brea to pose nicely with Lore who just barely get revealed, I had this theory that with the Chamberlain's surreptitious blade maybe they would make the General Skeksis next.

Very nice! I ordered mine from Weta and seems like they have a warehouse in Seattle but something must be messed up as the tracking hasn't moved since a label was created 2 months ago.

This is definitely not comparing "apples to apples" at all but... The most recent thing I bought from First 4 Figures I bought directly from them. So it actually ships surface from China to the US warehouse. It took 5 MONTHS to reach the US. I'm very curious though if buying directly from Weta ships in a similar China-US route. If so that could explain the lengthy shipping delays as that's kind of still a mess.

That would be logical.

Hmm, strangely when I've preordered Dark Souls statues from F4F they ship to me from a Canadian Warehouse and show up very fast. This current situation with Weta seems like Weta thinks USPS has it and USPS's system thinks a label was created with Weta but it's not in USPS's possession yet, but it's been in that state for 2 months. I'll be out about $600 or the statue if I can't put pressure on one of the two.

Hopefully your situation gets resolved.

Sounds like it's up to Weta to make it right, not USPS. I wouldn't be waiting anything close to 2 months, you need to have them figure that out immediately.
