I also scored one. I'd never heard of King Bee (Hind?) either until now. The only info on the site is for the MG5, so I assumed this is either their first project or they exist only as a distributor front for this toy. I would be happy to see more figs from them if they were as cool as this MG5 seems. Anyway I hope it shows up quick since it is coming out of the West Coast.
I assumed King beehind was Rory(Kr). If not they should pay him for how much he posts and hypes this toy. It also would help that he owns a super bee. or it could be a coincidence..
If anyone did not get one, email Kingbee...they are compiling a backup list if any pre-orders back out.
Got my shipping notice/tracking # this morning! Yay! Will be leaving for Comicon tomorrow night, so I won't get to see it until next week. Aww.
shipping and tracking already? Man, I paid on Monday = wonder how long that'll take for me to hear about it.
Mine arrived today. It looks great, better than the pictures on the site. The pink paint is really heavy and the green spray on the chest is a lot more prominent in person. The vinyl feels really thick and great in the hands. His vintage vibe is really endearing sitting in front of you. One of the nipple rockets came scuffed, that is my only complaint. Anyone have a translation for the banner? I see the character I use on YJA when I search for GID toys, so it must be describing the edition?
I'm still waiting to hear back from them... Paid on Monday morning like CCPFan and haven't heard anything back about shipment
hmm. still no word that anything shipped so I'm hoping that the email was lost and that I happen to have a box waiting. fooey...
Hey folks - i paid for mine yesterday (yeah, I'm on the slower side), and received notice of it shipping today. It was weird because I originally got a notice that said shipping Monday, but then a second popped up which indicated 7/24. Looking forward to it and I'll post when it's received. Have you guys with no notice tried contacting them? They've responded to my messages in fast fashion.
Same for me : I paid yesterday and got 2 emails this morning, one saying the parcel will be shipped on monday, the other one saying it will be shipped tomorrow (well, today actually with time difference). And I got a USPS shipping notice a couple of minutes ago ! I'm happy For the lucky guys who already received theirs, where are the pictures ????
Their server was down and got a message today saying it will be shipped out today. Can't wait to see the pink wonder. Yeah... where are those pictures?
Got him today and wanted to share some photos of him... here ya go I have to say this is one of the coolest pieces to come out this year, although I spotted the KR forums and they didn't share the same love... hehe
