YAY late TOD sorceress right from Sweeden yesterday....!!! Which should make the DEC Mosquitor possible late next week.

**marndt8448** · January 3, 2013, 05:19pm

My Black Friday order arrived today, as well as my bundle of Orko, BA Skeletor, and He-man. No customs on either package.

...also, got my shipping email from BBTS with Mosquitor (missed him on sale day) today and my shipping email from Matty for Granamyr & Procrustus at the beginning of the week. I wonder which package will arrive first.

**Highway** · January 3, 2013, 08:52pm

TOD Sorceress arrived today. Shipped December 7th.

**bigsexy_j** · January 4, 2013, 09:56am

My hover board arrived yesterday. No Sweden post mark, but it did have a Canada Post tracking sticker and required a signature.

Does yours have scotch tape on the board?

**Balthus Dire** · January 8, 2013, 10:44am

That box must have been HUGE, and heavy. Combined with the total value of the package, I can't believe you didn't get charged customs

When I had all three of those in my matty cart, or a combo of the two large items...the UPS prices skyrocketed to $50+. That's never happened before, it's usually the other way around with larger packages, making UPS the logical way to go.

I ended up just getting Granamyr from Matty, with UPS, and I received him on Friday. So apart from Grayskull, that's my last UPS order from matty...I don't know what DHL is like, but UPS prices got out of control in the past year, combined with poorer service, so I can't say I'm sad to see them go.

Well it was 2 boxes that arrived at the same time. My regular sub figures and one for the 2 Granamyrs.

Not sure what shipping method I have, I guess whatever is cheapest heh.

Hoping ol Granny and co. come today. I've been waiting for this guy snce 1983! 30 dang years!! these past few weeks have been agonizing!!

I'm building a special shelf for the ol boy too. right now it's pretty basic but when I move I am planning on going ALL out for him. I'm that excited for this old dragon!

**sgreg** · January 9, 2013, 01:32pm

Both Dec Sub package and Granamyr arrived today. the bonus figure is a mer-man with "the original" bust. $21.19 duty and tax on Granamyr. they also throw in an extra platinum/tin as a bonus.

**Stickfa** · January 9, 2013, 05:52pm

granamyr showed up yesterday, no duty or tax. I think I might be one of the ones that has a delayed procrustus, but Im okay with that .... not to be like eor ... but I think because of my last name starting with a W, I end up getting the shaft in situations like this a lot of the time.

I've always said, if I meet a lady that wants to keep her last name, if it's anywhere around S or higher, no problem.

**krosfyah** · January 9, 2013, 05:58pm

Good news is Granamyr and co came today, bad news he is trapped at the post office until tomorrow because i got hit with customs and don't have the cash to bail him out.

**Tzadkiel** · January 9, 2013, 07:34pm

I got my Moskweetor today. No customs.

**Drewsky** · January 10, 2013, 01:14pm

Just got my December sub order. No fees for a big box too. My free figures were 2 Mer-men. Would've preferred a Buzz-off, but I don't mind.

Drewsky...

**Darkspecter** · January 10, 2013, 01:48pm

My December sub came today, customs free.

My free figure was also Mer-Man. He came in a white mailer box.

**Balthus Dire** · January 10, 2013, 02:11pm

Pretty floored that numerous Granamyr's missed customs charges. My total package worth was $60 and I got nailed, yet one gigantic $80 package slips by without issue.

Ah, Canada Post....

**Tiberius** · January 10, 2013, 03:08pm

Got my Black Friday AND Cyber Monday boxes the Sunday before Christmas, still waiting on Mosquitor though. Also those 2 packages didn't get nailed for customs charges and NO Sweden sticker on them either...

**Durendal** · January 10, 2013, 11:03pm

My sub arrived today - both Mosquitor and Procrustus are flawless! My extra figure was (surprise surprise) Mer Man, and I have no idea what to do with him. Still waiting on Granamyr.

**Stickfa** · January 10, 2013, 11:15pm

procrustus and mosquitor arrived today .... or technically yesterday, apparently no one was home to get him ... which is bs .... we got a new mail man and he rings the doorbell and immediately fills out the "You weren't home" slip .... we've caught him filling it out twice now, after just having hear the doorbell .... i get wanting to finish your route, but come on!

anyways, I got them, they are awesome, and my extra figure was yes, merman. I guess Ill ebay him? ..... if i can .... = \

so my last name being W idea was shot down ..... I have an end-of-the-alphabet persecution complex.

**krosfyah** · January 10, 2013, 11:28pm

freed granamyr and company from the post office today, my extra figure was stratos.
granamyr is all kinds of awesome, my absolute favourit motuc toy period hands down. it might be my fav motu toy actually. i waited 30 years for this figure and it finally came. had some trouble assembling the tail, i did the heating up trick but it made the body so soft. after 30 years i did not want to breat this guy, so i was patient, the tail never clicked on but it feels solid i won't force it for sure.
