    Worf is a fantastic looking figure as well! Just came in today with the Borg Queen, which looks better in hand than in pictures. She was kinda slimy/creepy looking in the movies and it looks like they tried to duplicate that shiny look.

      One of my packages that was sent out on June 2nd, just changed from a delivery date of the 14th to the 20th! What the f... are they doing with the package? Why is it going to take two and a half weeks to get delivered?

          I've just had two more packages delayed to the 15th and 20th. That really sucks! Those were both supposed to be delivered on the 13th.

            If I looked up tracking through the Topps link, it always showed the item delivering the next day. Now that a couple of the orders have come in, it looks like it takes 8 days from when the tracking says the item is at the facility in FL to get to my place in central MO. I got a couple of Kor in today and they look great, tho they do seem a little on the small side if you are used to MEGO scale. I expect to see the last batch show up next Thursday if the timing matches up with the first couple of deliveries.

              Hi christopher dodd

              We've received your parcel from Topps Europe Ltd. Delivery is due:

              Friday, 10 June 2022*

              Between

              09:34am and 12:34pm*
              We won't need a signature. Not going to be in?
              captain marvel arrived

              i was hoping for the yellow trim version but this looks nice and the gold is well done ,its a flimsier material it seems than the mattel version which seems to integrate better with the suit at this scale
              head sculpt is nice but he reminds me of bruce willis in his moonlighting days for some reason lol

              but crikey he looks small in comparison to the vintage captain and the older mego redos ,i don't mind it too much and if they correct it id buy again or if they redo their earlier dc releases ill just treat it as a subset

              it arrived well packed and in great condition so im happy i preordered

                My Brent and Mutant Leader figures finally arrived this morning. Now that I have all the figures I ordered it’s time to free them all from their cards. ��

                    The scale difference doesn't bother me nearly as much as when the heads are too big. Shazam arrived in a crushed box so far only Topps figure i opened I was afraid I was going to find that loose mattel waist issue but feels very well made. Many of the parts come from that version or remind me of it...

                      I'm still waiting for my Topps orders to arrive. I ordered the Hammer Phantom, Mummy and Zombie, and according to the FedEx tracking it's in Newark, NJ. However, the tracking has not updated since June 2 so I have no idea where they actually are.

                        OK, the Topps debacle continues at least on my end. As I stated in my earlier post, I ordered the Hammer Phantom, Mummy and Zombie (also the Gorgon, but it was cancelled and I was refunded) way back when the Topps deal was in its infancy. Now I see everyone receiving their figures, yet mine (according to the tracking number provided) have been in Newark, NJ since June 2 yet I live in Saskatchewan, Canada.
                        I reached out to Topps customer service and, upon providing them my email address and order numbers, they claim the order numbers I provided (which came straight from an email from Topps) are for 2021 Topps Chrome Baseball Sapphire Edition, something I did not or would I ever have ordered. That s the extent of the communication I received from them in response to my inquiry.
                        I am so confused and, need I say, more than a little peeved.

                          I’m sorry this is happening to you. FedEx has turned into one of the worst parcel companies in North America. It’s unbelievable how far they’ve fallen. They’re worse than USPS.

                            Same here, been in Newark since June 1 & no update, just says 'in transit' and 'scheduled delivery date pending'

                            And based on stuff I've got from Zolo's I fully expect a ~$30.00 invoice from FedEx for custom clearance, to go along with the outrageous shipping Topps charged.

                            Glad I only bought Worf...

                              My Hammer figures were in transit for a while with no updates. I contacted FedEx via Twitter and they got back to me. Essentially saying when sending economy "Your packages are traveling by truck and will not show daily scans." Mine showed up here in Los Angeles, one on Saturday and the others on Monday.

                                Man, that really does blow...

                                Could you maybe forward the email confirmation to them, the email you would have received when you made your original order, showing them what *their* confirmation email showed you ordered? I'm assuming it shows that you ordered Hammer Phantom, Mummy and Zombie and not something baseball related?

                                If you can prove to them that your confirmation email, *from them*, shows you ordered action figures, they'd have to do something to help you, or at least refund your money... At least I hope they would.
