Hi Andy, and every other EXTREMELY patient person. Finally, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. It has been an immensely painful, slow and above all incredibly costly exercise to get these boxes made. But today I have been sent photos that they are finished and should land in the UK in the next 10 days.
Here's what they look like....I'll post more pics when I get them, along with updated timings. Rest assured, as soon as they are with me, they will be going out to you.

Finally.....the presentation boxes are due at my place in the next 2 days. :)
Printing the shipping labels now, so that I can despatch them to you guys immediately. I'll send each of you tracking numbers as soon as they are sent to me. Large box, very heavy - look for my hologram on them.
Looking forward to reading your reactions....hopefully all positive.
Cheers
S.

One delivery came, that of the presentation boxes. The other did not, that of the shipping boxes. Very frustrating, and I'm now living in what feels like cardboard city.

Another day's delay. Tsk.

A round of Cards Against Humanity will surely get rid of that frustration. And most likely will bring a smile to your face. :wink

Cheers Andy...I made that tank a couple of years ago. 6Kg and 6000 odd pieces of Lego...all fully motorised and with motorised reloading and firing of the main barrel and a working machine gun. It's a cool piece of fun.

Steven, Come on to Texas, we have plenty of room for you. Thank you very much for your hard work on this project. We're all very excited and can't wait for their arrival. Looking forward to seeing you in Las Vegas in October. Tomy

I'd love to come and live in Texas. There are the small issues of visas and getting work though.
Shipping boxes are due to arrive this morning, and the courier collects everything this afternoon. Like the crystals, delivery to you should be mid next week, possibly sooner.
Looking forward to your reactions when you get them.

As for Vegas.....can't wait to meet some old friends, and make lots of new ones. :)
