    Tracking toy tariffs

    Thankfully almost everything we buy is sourced in the US. I can't imagine have to deal with this on a regular basis, especially when it seems like a simple classification error. From their email, it sounds like they're going to request pictures of the item or some kind of paperwork describing...

    Tracking toy tariffs

    Okay, they sent back an auto replay, "our team is currently responding to emails from the week ending 6/21/2025". Couple problems, if you don't pay your invoice, UPS will suspend your account after a certain period and there's a 9.9% late payment fee after 9/11 for this invoice.

    Tracking toy tariffs

    A customer in Austria sends us plastic trays for packaging of the product we manufacture for them. It's not something we pay for. They've been sending these trays for years, but first time for this year. Today the UPS account has a $714 invoice separate from the usual weekly invoice. The trays...

    Xesray Combatants Fight For Glory figures.

    I just looked, my comparison pics didn't survive a Fwoosh reset. I kept one set of the females as intended, then I swapped around the parts on my second set. I remember the feet being the most difficult piece to swap. It was like they needed extra amounts of heat. I got a set from AliExpress...

    Xesray Combatants Fight For Glory figures.

    I was expecting to see at least a yearly release of female figures, but it's been three years?

    Not a lot of headroom in the SNAKE. I haven't tried Major Bludd. I bet he would have to go without a helmet.

    Tracking toy tariffs

    Amiami sent an email last night. "Thank you for your patience. We are preparing to ship all paid US orders currently on hold via ECMS. Orders will be dispatched in the order they were received, and due to limited shipping capacity it may take a few weeks to hand over all packages. What to...

    G.I. Joe Toys on Sale

    I can go for another set of Valkyries. I was a little disappointed when I saw Sarge/Mercer shipped on Saturday. I may have canceled to hold out for sale had I remembered they survived one of my earlier preorder purges. As usual, I like them better in-hand and didn't mind not waiting for a...

    I just read an email from a vendor and it ended with, "Thank you for your attention to this matter..." It was amazing, I defied time and space and violated all known physics by reaching into my monitor, grabbing Dennis by the neck, and pulling him into my office.

    Mini Comic Wave 2

    I canceled my preorders, but that was days before I heard about the hands from Toy Migos on Thursday night. I wouldn't cancel just for the hands. I'm mostly down on non-peak level MLs like Wolverine. Completely possible I would buy some if seen in-store.

    The Official AT Wrestling Thread

    I watched this ending at least fifteen times and I'm not exaggerating. It gets worse after every viewing. I've heard former wrestlers during their reviews say Nia pushes and pulls with too much force rather than lightly guiding or pantomiming the motion. They were saying this before Friday.

    G.I. Joe Toys on Sale

    Not a big clearance, but Target has Retro at $17.49 and Breaker $21.24. I picked up another Cobra Trooper.

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    Pulse also delayed the S.N.A.KE. from July 1 to September, but then they shipped mine on July 19, leaving most other people waiting. You never know, maybe they'll have a very small amount of Sentinels ready to ship around the original date.

    Once more people have the SNAKE in hand, they'll realize it's actually kind of boring. I ordered two from Pulse, they shipped one in July, I'm somewhat grateful they didn't ship both at the same time because it gave me the chance to cancel one. I would've immediately sold the second and have no...

    Tracking toy tariffs

    I called the local PO. I was surprised someone picked up because I've tried to look into a handful of lost eBay packages by calling the buyer's PO and I've found it difficult to get someone to answer the phone.

    Tracking toy tariffs

    I'm familiar with that situation because a section of my street was blocked off due to road work. I caught my Amazon driver as he was approaching my house and he had to call it in before handing off the package. Another time, I felt like an idiot during a call with my local PO. The tracking...

    Wrestling Toys (Mattel WWE, Jazwares AEW, etc.)

    Insiderguy on WFigs posted: "And for the record, I'm now getting word that there will be AEW figures from Jazwares in 2026. Not that they renewed the license, likely that's just near when the license ends." That makes sense, aren't toy deals sometimes seven years. Unless jazwares pulls a Tony...

    Marvel 1/6 Scale (Mondo, Hot Toys, etc.)

    Play Arts Kai? Those must be packed with the figures. They're a weird scale, maybe 1/9? There were stands with bendable supports. I don't think they were very popular and I'm not sure if anything like it is still being made.

    KO Star Wars

    Here's the Play One 12 next to Mafex Boba. I broke out the needle and thread to cinch his pant legs a little tighter and glued his knee pad strap. While messing around a couple more silly issues popped up. I don't think he can properly grip his blaster without exerting force and potentially...

    McFarlane DC Multiverse

    That delay was a little confusing. I ordered a second Catwoman when I didn't receive a confirmation for the first order. The first order eventually went through and is in my account. I got a confirmation email for the second, but then they immediately sent a cancelation email, "We’re very sorry...

    More expensive on Pulse. I have an order at both places, but didn't notice the price difference in my urgency to check out.
