    Asking twice in a single day with no reply wasn't enough so 3 times in a week is better?

    Thank you, kichigai.

    With a little edit. . . Better?

    Ok. In the negative then. Hey, did anyone else order a shirt and NOT receive it yet?

    Sheesh.

    From my understanding these are being made to order so I'd settle down and not anticipate seeing 'em for a while. If they show up next week consider it a bonus!

    I can sympathise your urgency after seeing pics of you squeezing into a Mishwanka shirt awhile back!

    Dear Sheesh,

    no actually it is not better at all, asking
    this 4 times in a week clogs the thread.

    shirt might be delayed for some unseen
    yet valid reason- but just keep barking.

    if you are worried about the shipping status,
    why not email the guy you bought it from?

    this works for me and with good results!
    logic always prevails and yet is elusive.

    or be patient like Andy suggests and be
    thrilled when it arrives instead of spam.

    that new 'thing' looks weird can not tell if
    its a limb or a monolithic sculpt.......

    The boy has no patience.

    I know, the hobby is hard sometimes, but we should all just be thankful and appreciative for what we have, and being able to get these toys/shirts/whatever. These are independent, real folks, running these 'companies' (I use that term pretty liberally), something a lot of people lose sight of.

    Looks to me like the base of a foot, with the arm/hand seen above. I can only identify it right away from trying - usually unsucessfully - to take similar pics showing the markings of other vinyl toys. A new omake/mini or wrestling character perhaps?

    Thank you everyone. This is why I asked the community. I can only guess his T-shirt orders are taking longer than he predicted. Its good to know because I did not want to write him directly and seem over-anxious unless he had already sent out everything. I can't imagine him writing everyone when they do ship.

    So no HS at SDCC this year too? That's a shame. I guess the next big event will be NYCC, maybe?

    The new post looks like a belt buckle or a medallion or a pin. Or his new foot stamp, as guessed above.

    The "new" foot stamp is the one used on the KGJs, so I don't think this is going to be a mini or omake... Exciting.

    Judging by the lack of toes, maybe a new mech figure.

    Japanese dudes are getting their t-shirts now, so they should be hitting overseas soon. Got mine a few days ago.

    He said it'd take about a month to make them, and it's been 40 days. Hardly an excruciating wait.

    Kongrats!

    Post a pic if it had any type of package/header etc.

    Curious about that since the other HXS shirts had that.

    Couldn't agree more. Nothing beats red vinyl with blue sprays for me.

    Those sprays are a winning combination.

    I think it would be great to see HXS produce a soft vinyl pterodactyl
    doll since it has such a long standing legacy to a much loved Gorilla:

    Also it would be awesome to see HXS produce the rest of his Monsters in the small size.
    MG2, T-JYU, Cyborg, Itamu etc. I hope that if any get small treatments Cyborg & Itamu!
