 Anybody score the Museum Tankizaado?
Shit! I forgot the all Museum Wonderwall stuff went online today and missed the clear orange Tankizaado. Anybody score one? (Frank's Bunny-zilla, the Flatwood and others were too.)

No...I didn't give much of an effort, but after the page didn't load the first time, I gave up.

Haha, yes. Long story short, the page shorted out on most of us, but some people apparently were able to purchase multiple items successfully.
Go figure that one out.

I tried, gave up, check back later, had the biskup in my cart, looked around for other stuff, and then lost it at checkout.
Shit!

Sounds like yet another case of server meltdown. Sorry it did not work out for you guys. That clear orange vinyl looked soooo nice. Maybe one will show up for reasonable trade or auction after the feeding/flipping frenzy is over (in about a year  ).

Luckily I got a hook-up on the Usagi beforehand cuz I tried and got squat to show for it. I logged into my account on their homepage and managed to get four of the releases into my cart but then I hit the dreaded server lag. By the time I got to the Paypal screen everything was sold out. Bummer. But at least I got a gold Usagi.

same for me
after more than 2 hours(!!!) of dead white screen I was able to put mothman to my cart, look around briefly for other stuff (just seconds!) and lost my moth at checkout...

It took me an hour, but I got the Usagi, Tankizaado and Magman. I don't know how it happened, but I'll post pics when/IF they actually have some for me.

I got a Tankizaado (the piece i wanted most) and a Banana Slugg, it was pure timing as to what you got no choosing really, things popped up for an instant then were gone then back again then gone for good.

 sucky servers waste time
Yeah absolute joke really annoying as I live in Perth westOz was up till 3.30 am. Only missed out on the slug though. But my friend got squat! He stayed up all night ..had to travel the next day. He loaded a few things in the they were all gone at check out.
I was refreching 1 min before the log on and when it froze up got on about five min later and all the sjugz were gone I dont know how that happened when I was on the page and still missed out. oh well. I remember reading somewhere that the guy running the store said they were 'quitely confident that their server could hndle it'. Well I dont know about that..
