Oh, that sucks

And the list of problems keep growing...

How would that even be possible? I'm guessing that these were made at different times and arrived separately, already boxed...

I had the same issue with MOTUC once... Ordered a Stratos and opened the box to find Zodac (or Zodak, not sure which one now...).

Does Mattel get anything right?

My wife was looking over shoulder and said Metron looked cute. Not necessarily my thoughts, but I do think he looks cool. Can't wait to display mine

So, the charge has come through on my card - shipping for Metron only.

The pending amount has been reduced, so I'm assuming the Rocket Red/Starman set was pre-authorised only, to be charged in the next week or so, which is fine - I used to work at a credit card company so that's pretty par for the course.

However, that does mean no Atrocitus, which is a real problem.

If anyone has one they don't want, please contact me - he's one of the main reasons I joined the sub in the first place

Thoroughly fed up

YWF, did you call them to see if Atrocitus is going to be sent at all?

I'm in the exact same boat, although I do have the DCD one, so it's not the end of the world.

I hadn't done when I posted, but I've called them this morning and they've confirmed he won't be sent.

From reading a few posts around the web, it looks like they haven't got any held replacement stock either, so no luck if you've got a dud one.

I wouldn't mind, but I actually like this figure. I would have subbed anyway, because I'm easy like that, but him and Jay were the big pulls for me.

I'm seriously considering adopting the Van Statten model and buying all my figures direct from China (I already get store exclusives this way). It would save me a lot of stress.

Who will still be buying a 2013 sub. What was the definition of madness again...?

Not madness-- INSANITY
