My Wave 2 Monsters and NYCC glow monsters were delivered today.

I've ordered over $2,500 in stuff from Super 7 since March 2018 and I have not had a single issue with damaged product or delayed shipping or anything. Maybe I'm lucky or maybe others on here are unlucky but I have a pretty good sample size of orders to go by on my end.

I have never overpaid on shipping from Super7.  They basically charge what the PO charges them plus packaging, and I've found it all very reasonable.  The one questionable item I purchased was the coloring book.  It was packed very securely in a box.  It could have gone media mail, though, for far less.  Everything else has been extremely reasonable, but I live closer to them than most of you.

My first box arrived with some minor crush, not enough to reach the figures inside. USPS is not bad this way, not like Fed Ex. 4 figures from Hot Topic online by Fed Ex- box severely crushed and 3/4 bubbles of figures crushed. I mailed them that they are forbidden to use Fed Ex with me ever again. Heard nothing back, no accountability, nothing.

I am in need of scans of the Keshi stickers. I have both Creatures, Invisible Man,  Frankenstein and Mole People, but need the other 7. Anybody have any of those and a scanner?

Anybody?

For the most part, I haven't had issues with Super7. I've never noticed their shipping being outrageous. I say that, and I did have a hell of a time getting a Frankenstein superbucket last fall. I think they ended up sending me 2 or 3 that were damaged the same way in transit (the nose of the bucket was facing the side of the box, so it didn't take much for that to get pushed in). I get that things can happen, but that really irked me because 1) it took me weeks to get a hold of someone about what was going on (ultimately had to call someone at one of their stores who really helped me) and 2) I warned them that the way they packaged the superbucket was causing damage, but they kept packaging it like that. That's really my only complaint, other than wishing they made it clearer when items would be released.

The scanning part is what is difficult for me to help you out here.

No problem! A lot of people don't seem to have one. I couldn't live without a scanner/printer!  :)

The 3.75 figures are supposed to be released today through Super7 and these are the main figures that I've been waiting for. For me there's one guy on the UK eBay who sells their items and Zavvi do also but not everything that gets released. These 2 figures I definitely want so I'll give them a couple of days to turn up here or I'll go through Super7 and have to pay the high shipping and impiety duty to get them. To be fair it works out around the same cost to do that but it always feels a bigger risk getting something sent to me from the US but I really don't want to miss this release.

Regardless of cost and shipping issues/cost I'm still glad that Super7 are around as they do supply items that no one else is putting out there and I've been happy to support them over the years.

I'm looking forward to getting those "They Live" ghouls. I sorta wish we'd have gotten 4 of them instead of 2. Ah well.

Would anybody else want another version of the Invisible Man, this one in the suit he wears at the inn in the beginning, with the fake nose and hair peeking from his bandaged face?

There were a small run of these made and I think they came from SDCC a couple of years ago. The last one that sold was painted up and supposedly came from Kirk Hammett's collection. It went for around $70 I think as a BIN but I have seen a few of these on eBay over the years. I'm still hopeful though that these will get a proper release and good news for me on the They Live figures as I managed to order them from Zavvi just now for £15 each which is better than I can get them from the US once you add what the shipping would have cost me.

My Reaction Unis series 2 arrived, also my DD Amelia, today. Therefore, Halloween has been salvaged for me. Been kinda crummy up til today. Card art is great on SSRA, the figures are ok for what they are.  Throwbacks to a bygone era. The DD Amelia rocks!
