One year and counting ...

[MEGOMAN]

It may have been around July. Many people have received their extra costumes before and after they were sent their Phantom. Bottom line is the Cast-a-way has some serious issues with empty promisses.

[Man in Tights]

Was that around late July/early August? That's when I received the costume. Could be some mislabelling at play.

Was it standard practice for Cast-a-Way to send out the figures and costumes separately?

[MEGOMAN]

I was one of those who posted on here about receiving an extra phantom without ordering it. It was sent to me well past when I received the it the first time. I'm sorry but, these guys at Cast-a-way have a huge problem.

[Man in Tights]

I just think it's odd that I received the bonus costume but not the figure. Plus I've seen comments from customers who've received an extra figure. Maybe one of them is mine ...?

Being an outside observer, it seems Castaway has a lot of problems when shipping overseas.

As a matter of fact, I could have swore they stopped taking overseas orders (not sure though)

Bonkers head from the UK and Thorion from Italy have had there figures and stuff from Castaway.My order was placed in June but they may have changed their policy for oversea's orders now?

Thanks, hopefully it's coming (but so's Christmas! )

Welcome aboard ans Sorry to hear about the situation.
Completely unacceptable.
The pre-order wait I can understand but the product has been floating around for several months now.

That being said they are great guys and I'm sure you will receive your stuff eventually.

So Dave, if you happen to read this, please respond. I ordered (and paid for) the Early Bird Phantom in October 2008 when it was first announced. A few months ago I received the bonus olive-green costume, but there's been no sign of the figure itself.

Order no. yhst-12736645079161-603. Here's hoping ...

[Man in Tights]

Aha, thanks for that. Well, at least I have THAT part of it!

[GlobalObserver]

Thanks dude!

Incidentally guys, what's the difference between the Early Bird Phantom and the standard one? Right now I'd be happy with either.

The early bird came with a yellowish/brownish/greenish extra head and bodysuit.

Seems my story is just one of the many. Have tried e-mailing Dave multiple times in the past few months with no response. This forum is my last recourse.

I'm sorry you have not recieved your figure yet. That sucks having to wait so long with no replies. I hope they can get it to you soon.
And welcome!

[QUOTE=Meule;408459]I will be, my back just needs time to heal. Spent a short while in the hospital, got 2 shots in my back and I gotta lay flat on my back till all of this over, sucks like hell [/QUOTE
That sucks. I hope you do get well soon.

I know what it's like having back problems. I once spent the night on a mattress on the floor at my brother's house one New Year's and for a week afterward, I literally could not get up from a sitting or lying position.

I would have to roll out of bed onto my feet, and then straighten up.

Fortunately, my uncle was a practicing acupuncturist, and he treated my back for me, free of charge.

Forty minutes after he inserted the needles, (and the little beggars DO hurt a bit, I don't care what the so-called experts say), I was on my feet and the pain was gone.

Any news on your stuff, dude?

A year is an awful long time to wait for someone to deliver goods that they swore up and down that they were going to.
