Kassill Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Hello wolf brothers! I come to you asking about Mythicast shipping time for their models. I recently ordered a the 5 pack of War Wolf Cavalry and the Hero Promo Pack back in May. Now, I have been using the tracking service on the website, and the last post on it was the 6th of June stating that it had reached it's destination country and to be delivered within 5-7 days. Now, again, that was on the 6th, so wouldnt that have been Monday if I took it as 7 days? Or what am I missing? Yes, I know I am a bit impatient, but I am really hoping they get here before this weekend so I can field them for a game on Sunday! Thanks brothers.

Max_Dammit Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 there's nothing you can do but wait, the tracking systm has traced it to you local postal service so its not mythicast's fault. you could try and contact them if they know the exact address its been handed of so you know where to call, but i doubt they have that info, I never had trouble with them in the past.

Blacksad Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 as someone working for customs, I might be able to shed a tiny bit of light on this subject. this is how this usualy works: the parcel arrives at the postal office in your country, at or near the main airport. it gets checked if it is indeed for your country, or to be forwarded somewhere else the proclaimed value is checked (CN22). if this exceeds the maximum value that can be imported by post-parcels, it gets sent to another office, which is then tasked with "investigating" wether or not you should pay added taxes. if you do not require to pay importationtaxes (and if I'm not mistaken, there are no importtaxes on figurines, only a possible VAT) they send the parcel to you. this can take a while, pending on the time of year. if you do require to pay an additional fee, they'll send you a letter. this can also take a while, pending on the time of year. usualy the safest way to find out what is REALLY happening, is call the postal offices. they can track the parcel using the same number, but a lot more in-depth. (was it sent to the de-taxing office? has customs intercepted it and broken it to see if cocaine was being smuggled inside? is it still being sent from tiny office to tiny office because the adress isn't correct, ...) a lot of possible reasons, only one fairly safe way to be certain. make the postman go postal :huh: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/232250-mythicast-shipping/#findComment-2793599 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kassill Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 Haha, ok thanks brothers! I guess I'll take Max's advice and wait. But if they dont show up by next week I think I may do some investigating using some of Blacksad's advice, so agian, thanks. Just ready to see the look of my buddies faces when I field em! Up until last game I had with them, they had never heard of a thunderwolf! :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/232250-mythicast-shipping/#findComment-2793611 Share on other sites More sharing options...
FenrisWolf Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Also remember they are talking business days, so today would have been their 7 day mark. But it may have gotten hung up a bit in customs. I have a set of five, but I honestly don't remember how long they took to arrive from the Philippines.

Dahli Llama Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Same thing happened to me. It took about a week to get to US Customs, but then another 2-3 weeks to get out of customs to my house. You can contact the shipper's Customer Service, and they can provide you a local US tracking number that you can use on the USPS site to see where things are in the US.

Foe_hammer Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Greetings brothers! I just ordered a set of thunderwolves w/storm shields from mythicast and I have a question or two. How many weeks total did it take to recieve your order? And do the thunderwolves come with bases or do i need to get some from GW?

elithren Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Be warned, the bases can come in warped and messed up. Buddy of mine got his and only one of the five would actually work so he had to cut some deals with people for their big bases ie dreads, tyranid bugs, that kind of thing.

Hahaha! ;) Ok brother, you can see pics of them here As far as equipping them... Wolf Lord-Frost Axe, SS, Runic Armor, TWM, Saga of the Bear, Wolf Tooth Neckalace, Wolf Tail Talisman, 2x Fenrisian Wolves-290pts 1-5x man Thunder Wolf Cavalry-Plain, Melta Bomb, Storm Shield, Storm Shield/Melta Bomb, Thunder Hammer/Storm Shield-380pts and then the Iron Priest will be like, TWM, WTN, 4x cyber wolves. Probably not the best build for them, but it's what I'm going to be rolling with. ;) As to the base question, only one of the six I got was bent, and I was able to bend it back, sorta. It works ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/232250-mythicast-shipping/#findComment-2800090 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fhyn Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Lol, just got mine yesterday also. Probably took about same time. I knew it was going to take awhile, I didnt even look on their site, I just figured one day I would get a pleasant surprise when I got home from work. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/232250-mythicast-shipping/#findComment-2800145 Share on other sites More sharing options...
