    Come and get 'em!!!

    Awesome assortment of Spikewads available now. Great toy and a great price. The guys over at Unbox are also super nice.

    Bloo is such a great color way. The blue and orange look fantastic together. Can't wait to have him in hand. Keep up the great work Jeff.

    Same here. And it's night time in the UK now so we probably won't hear anything today.

    If I am not mistaken I have never gotten a tracking number from Unbox. All of my packages have shipped straight from Asia. They arrived pretty quickly though and overly well packaged. I spoke with Dan from Unbox today via email, he is in an area with limited cell reception so communication may be slower based on that as well. I would not worry in the least with these guys.

    A shipping confirmation email would be the right way to do.
    That way at least you know the package is in its way.
    So far nothing from them.
    We will find out in a few days how fast they actually ship .

    ughh I missed the sale would have loved to have grabbed a GID "Absinthe". I got the Unbox newsletter on the 5th but it didn't mention the exact date of sale. Should have checked here :cry:

    Just heard from Dan/Unbox. He said they ship once a week to save money on shipping. Items ship this weekend and email notifications will go out over the next several days.

    He mentioned they are taking a loss with multiple shipping by trying to keep it reasonably priced.

    He also mentioned future releases may be done through a US retail outlet, to save everybody in North America money on shipping.

    Hope that clears it up, he also mentioned he is happy to answer any questions directly, just send a quick message.

    My personal experience with Unbox has been nothing but positive, they've come through in a pinch shipping toys to art shows quickly, paid me promptly...basically any concerns will be met and handled.


    Hope that helps clear things up. Thanks for the purchases

    Dan at Unbox is awesome. He's always quick to get back and really helpful. Can't wait to get mine (one of every color way!) and have no worries they will arrive soon and safe and sound.
    Awesome toy and amazing colorways Jeff!!!

    "Bloo" showed up today and looks so great in person. Keep up the great work Jeff, your art translates so well into fun toys.

    Thank you! The producer mentioned he's going to use a different shipping company next time, so things should arrive faster.

    Thanks for purchasing.

    ^^^ What a great way to display Spike, I love the craters on his back, especially on the "claw" version.

    A new one going up for sale in London, at the Kapow Comicon event this month. I reckon any unsold figure will go up for sale via Unbox shortly afterwards.

    It's black vinyl. This color scheme reminds me of Catwoman, or a sort of latex fetish Spike Wad!

    That is correct TJ, also coincides with the comicon releases date.
