The reason for the delay in shipping has to do with the "Mattel Crisis" in China.
The lead paint fiasco has made the Chinese government very very cautious
about any toys shipping out.
Spock and the Andorian were ready to ship out at the end of October, but they
were not put on the ship until mid-November. I know that the ship should have
arrived by now in the U.S. but I don't have any information about the status
of them now.
I will know when my Diamond rep tells me that the figures are coming to my door.
I'm still hoping that they arrive by next weekend, but that may be just wishful
thinking.Comment

OK, so I am VERY late on this. What are the series? I only saw Kirk and Klingon so far on Ebay.Comment

Spock and Andorian (waiting to be shipped)
McCoy and Romulan (pre-orders only)
Scotty and Keeper (scheduled for April 2008)

According to my rep, Spock/Andorian will now ship the week of 01/09/08.
Blah.--

After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing, after all, as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true. -SpockComment

Between EMCE being a new company, and selling toys from China with all the recent recalls, and the holiday season (which always adds time to international deliveries), we've hit upon the perfect storm.

Trust me, John, I'm just as frustrated as you are. I just had a guy call me steaming mad that his case of Spocks/Andorians wasn't delivered yet. I've explained to him about a thousand times that it's beyond my control, and that NO ONE has them yet, not just me, but he doesn't seem to get it.--

See, this is why I didn't pre-order this time.
I'm one of those personalities that can't cope with mail order anticipation.
The Kirk/Klingon delay was enough for me.
Soon as they start showin up....that $$ will be gettin spentComment

Kirk and Klingon are sold out at Diamond (and have been for a while). Unless they do limited run variant editions, I highly doubt we'll see them again unless the entire line does gangbusters.
Hopefully the Bones / Romulan won't be too far behind. Although the delays with China toys due to recall concern will likely still be a factor, the post holiday lull should help mitigate the delays.
