That was the best one-off at NYCC, I have to admit I was very jealous. Evom those are great shots.

Early bird gets the worm!

The one you got is the one I told EVOM he should get originally... since he was leading the line... Shred's is sweeeet as well!

I was actually wondering what the normal turn over on preorder items. This is actually my first time doing this getting anxious...

Did everyone get Rich's update on the new clears?

Be patient because he is creating art, not just toys. Let's not get him stressed out. Dealing with these Japanese toy makers and their schedules can stress anyone out enough, especially in the holiday time of December and January.
Calm.
The toys will come.

Yeah, again, I'm so sorry for this long wait. This is DEFINITELY not the normal. There seemed to have been every single problem go wrong that could have gone wrong with both pre orders.

I'm doing my best to get this all in. I still have to get everything in, assemble and send out. Not to mention paint up the chase stuff. I'm so stressed out about this you all have no clue. This should have NEVER took this long.

With that said, I'm doing my best to get this in and get it all out.

Ive been without vinyl now for about 4 months so its killing me, trust me. I'm dying to get back to work painting, this wait is hard.

So again I apologize profoundly, I'm bumming big time

It's all part of the game, no?
I don't think there is any doubt they will be worth the wait.

It's easy to say "Don't Worry, it will all work out", when it's not your baby, or income that the delays are messing with, but Dont worry. None of us are hating, and it's a process we're all willing to go through, for the final product you put out. At least your not in here with a "3A" attitude, it's nice knowing your care. I think we're just all excited to have the big lug in our cabinets/shelves.

Sorry to hear of the problems Rich but I can only assume most of us are just happy to have had a chance at this stuff in the 1st place!

crossing my fingers!! hopefully all problems will be resolved soon and the vinyl will arrive in the states!

Yeah Rich, I wasn't sweating it at all. It's to be expected, it's no easy feat you're performing...

Don't get yourself bummed about things out of your hands, Rich. Delays happen, shit happens- we're all behind you man!

Yeah Rich, no worries here on this end.

I'm not worried one bit, but I am jumpy to have 2 Ollie's, and a Emma almost home ;P

I have waited ages to buy one so I am more than happy waiting a little longer anyway, these things happen

^Ditto; do whatever you can to diffuse your stress on this one, Rich... it's not worth the toll on your body and mind!

Fuck all this, I want, nay, demand a refund.

Everyone gets a refund, except you.

Rich don't make me drive up to CT and camp out on your steps strapped with a hose filled with sand or a que ball in a sock.

yikes !!

Well Rich, I don't really care if it takes a toll on your mind. Go ahead and completely snap and start wearing tin foil helmets and having conversatios with the toaster...as long as you can still make toys.

Have you been looking in my window at night

Can't wait for the paint jobs and color combos Rich comes up with when he loses his mind!

Don't you love it when you forget all about a purchase made months ago to then be surprised when that shit hits the doorstep . I keep forgetting then remembering about the clear Ollies. Hopefully I will forget again...then it will be here
