    still waiting for my HH and leech ...

    shipping seems so infrequent when it comes to us U.K. fans ... last month was super-fast for me, and now back to slow again ...

    Just read that the import allowance drops from £18 to £15 from November. Probably doesn't make much difference for anything other than $30 beasts, which will probably now 'always' be liable for customs charges rather than 'depending on the exchange rate'

    No Matey, not a single thing. I'm in two minds whether to ring my local sorting office and check.

    I'm still waiting on Leech and HH too. I had a problem with my subscription renewing because Digital River decided to try and charge an old credit card that expired in 2010!! They managed to charge the correct card for the first 8 months of 2011 but obviously 9 months was too much to ask!

    My figs were shipped on 15th Sept so would still have expected them by now

    It's sure good to know I'm not the only one still waiting. I went to the post office today but it's not there so where ever it is, it takes really looong time this time around to arrive..

    i didn't post on the day as i was away at the weekend, but my HH and leech showed up last thursday ...

    leech is awesome, and looks so much better in real-life and in-hand ...

    HH on the other hand is a little disappointing ... the paint on the red-dial has already started to flake away and the vac-metal effect looks kind of cheap ... which is a shame because i was jazzed for HH ...

    Leech and HH turned up yesterday. Managed to miss the customs fee this time round, even though the box had £8GBP written in large black letters on the back! Think that's Royal Mails handling fee so may have only just skipped through - Phew!

    wow Im shocked everyone had such a wait for Leech and Hordak. I got mine in just over a week with no customs charges. It made me wonder if I did the right thing using UPS next year because there wont be a single month I wont be hit with charges.. but it seems like its still a hit and miss gamble with the regular shipping anyway.
    What next? It seems every month lately there is something..

    It's just weird that some people are only just getting Leech and Hordak. Mine came 4 weeks ago, with the regular shipping and no fees. Its just such a lottery really.

    Yeah, my Leech arrived a couple of weeks ago as well. I can understand those held up in customs, but some folks have avoided fees and its still took them a while to arrive!

    Picked mine up yesterday. I like Leechs body but the head is probably my least favorite MOTUC so far. Hordaks ok for a varient but could live without him.

    As most of us UK fans post within this topic just though i'd pose a question.

    Would you like to do a He-Man.org (UK only) get together drinks one Saturday in London

    We've tried to organise meet-up's in the past but I don't think anything has ever come to pass. I'd be up for this if we could get a good few of us but I'd need a fair bit of notice to sort out travel and accommodation, but the more notice the more people we would probably come anyway.

    Yeah its a shame. How about February? At one of the Leicester Square bars, it would be central and easy to get to?
