There is no "our case". You buy it, you or eBay scalpers. Simple.

So if it took 3-4 months for them to get it in stateside warehouse, that?s how long you?ll wait until they give it to courier. Even though the item says shipped and it?s been given tracking.
Update: ok, I was wrong about this one. Mine is stateside and on the move in Arizona, only took 4 weeks. Keep an eye on your tracking!

Even if you got a tracking it would be a fedex or ups and it wouldn't have any updates till it hits the forwarded in the states anyway.
It's odd, I got tracking from Prime a few days ago and now it will be delivered tomorrow. I did economy shipping.

That leaves 1200 people that have the full size statue but can't display arguably display the best head sculpt.

Outside of the full size statue owners you have the collectors who don't have space and would prefer the bust for that reason.

The bust also has the med kit which in itself is rare item. While everyone was complaining about the price and trying to boycott Prime 1 I was adding two of them to my cart
I would definitely rather sell a bunch of other pieces for letting this go unless I find it underwhelming in person. If push came to shove though, your right, I would only sell my DXS and keep the bust.

I knew that would be the case as well, so that caused me to cave. I didn't foresee many letting it go and I didn't want to gamble on whether Prime would or wouldn't re-make this.

Not that odd, it's been on the boat from China and got to the forwarder and they shipped it out to you from the US (either fedex or UPS likely). That's how stuff going by ocean from China is with statues these days. There is essentially nothing to track until it hits the states, some create a shipping label immediately when it leaves china but basically it sits at "label created" for a month or so until it actually gets to the us and it starts on it's way or they just do so when it comes to the US and it actually ships out. A difference would be if it's an individual package or one big shipment but both could be done either way.

Also un-related to the limited bust saw some pics of the BD bust on FB today.
