Apparently not... I got a shipping notice for my Skelly today... let's see if he beats He-Man to the race.
Yes, it is ridiculous.
Am I right that no-one on this side of the pond has gotten reHe-Man yet?

Still no bloody Scareglow sub here.
Started to worry that he has been lost in the post somewhere.
Anyone know Matty's policy on lost figures?
Got shipping notices for Randor and the Goddess but at the moment that doesn't fill me with confidence![]()
Neutral Forest Spirit
Still nothing here either.
Got my shipping notice for Randor today though.
Nothing on he-man and scareglow in france for now...![]()
I wouldn´t be so upset. From what i hear in Germany, if you have to wait for more than 6 weeks.... then you have a reason to be worried. I know this waiting time sucks..... it sucks a lot.
To your question, i´ve read a post somewhere on these boards yesterday from someone who was successful with nagging... so... there must be a chance. I wasn´t ...![]()
I'm the bearer of bad news around here.......when my Hordak went AWOL in the summer I had a month and a bit shouting match with DR and lost - I got myself a replacement off ebay (for cost, a good shipping rate and it got here in 8 days - proof that others can do it better) and also had our post office run a search - which brought me nothing.
It's the risk we run taking the "cheap" shipping option, they are under no obligation to replace loses.
Bear in mind we have had extensive post strikes that they STILL haven't cleared up yet so hope isn't lost that your Scareys will still turn up - just late.
No Scarey today, which means I won't get him til the New Year now (am away). Had shipping notices for Goddess & Winston, though not Randor annoyingly.
No He-man in Belgium...
Thanks to Motorthing and Colton for the information.
Well that's a right kick in the knackers that Matty don't have to replace losses. I did e-mail them and to be fair a got a fairly quick response to say that they were conatcing the shippers so who knows.
It's just a shame that the alternative shipping option is so expensive.
Still hopefully, as you say, Scareglow is just held up in the Christmas backlog. Either that or he's taking the opportunity to check out the German Christmas markets and sample their fine beers and mulled wine!!!

No ReHe-Man, no shipping notices and proabaly nothing likely to arrive to cheer Xmas day.
Bah humbug Matty.
Anyone actually going to put their name and personal details on the TG thread? I want to know why and what good it will do first, but Val is limiting that thread to simple responses only so I think I would ask here.
A spark of hope dear friends:
My re-issue He-men arrived today (Belgium)! According to the many many stamps and labels on the packaging, they come from New-Zealand. I also had to pay 10 euros for customs.
Good to know they are finally arriving!
@beastmaster: I'm from Wervik, West-Vlaanderen.
The MattyCollector project is an ambitious one and I refuse to give in to temptation and curse anyone involved in the process - but since DigitalRiver became involved, the ball has been dropped on a few occasions. Custom-filtering cargo through South American and New Zealand ports has meant long shipping times for individual packages and non-appearances of amny bulk orders.

"Worked on me!"
"Me too!"

Still nothing. It amazes me the level of incompetence the digital river have. Mattel probably use them because they're cheaper than over distributers.
Well, well. Look who has just snuck his way in my front door, wearing a santa hat and reeking of franfurters and mulled wine?
Mr Scareglow.....finally!![]()
Worth the wait though. What a cool figure. The best one since Mer Man. The paintjob, joints, accesseories are all fab. Best bit is his amazing skull head. Just brilliant.
Let's hope the Randy King and his Mistress, sorry Goddess, are a bit faster in getting to these shores.
Neutral Forest Spirit
i read in another thread that someone in belgium received their reissue he-mans... so they are getting closer =)
Got my Scareglow today, finally...still no sign of He-Man.
Chris here...
Still nothing for me, unfortunately.
Take care...![]()

I wonder - I've ordered Scareglow and He-Man in one order - maybe that's why I'm still not getting it sicne there was some sort of delay with He-Man for us Europeans fans..? BTW - got my shipping confirmation for Skeletor..
Re-issued He-man arrived today![]()
Owwwhh, now I'm really starting to wonder.. maybe tomorrow??
I had a 'sorry we missed you' card through the door today, and Im not expecting anything else, so I assume it's one of my other Matty packages, but I have to give 48 hours to go collect it![]()
What next? It seems every month lately there is something..
