One final update, the black widows mesh very well with the upgrade sprue that came with the male Stormtroopers. I've been mixing the arms with them, hands, equipment, etc. and it looks great. So if you were curious about whether they would work or not, no worries.

The arms may be SLIGHTLY bigger, but if they are I can't tell even when holding them up to withing a foot of my face.

Good to hear! That upgrade kit is amazing, will give a lot more customization to the ladies.

I think it's awesome that the female storm troopers still have all the same arms,armor and, body coverage as their male counterparts. It creates the feeling of a gender neutral army.

..yet even after all that them gunner gals got them ghetto booties. Awesome.

Only Dark Eldar have more gender equality ...but then again they all look like BDSM whatevers :p

got my 15mm Mortis and mauler claw from customs yesterday, he's so tiny and adorable. PITA to put together compared to the big one, especially the pistons, but worth it

Think I'm going to use him as a Ferrum Infernus Dreadnought after a bit of conversion work, and his big brother can wait until Chaos get Knight rules.

the left arm Mauler Claw I got comes with optional upper armour, but the ones that came with the Mortises (both scales) doesnt, it looks pretty cool so I'd like to have a matching set on both arms though

I got a card saying I've incurred almost £15 in customs charges from the package, not exactly what I was hoping for...


Based on past experience at least half of that will be the 'handling fee' (because, apparently, hanging onto your package so they can charge you money for it also requires a extra charge) and these days you can only order something to a value of about £18 - 20 from the US without incurring customs charges. It sucks, but it's nowt to do with Dreamforge.

Cool to hear that some people are finally getting wave 3 stuff. I've been holding off on getting a 15mm Crusader until the alternative arms go retail, hopefully this means that day is a little closer.

Know that feeling. I once had a package that cost me dearly that way.

Apparently the customs charge was £1.33, so the GPO thought that gave them the right to charge me another £8 on top for the privelege of paying that £1.33 for me when I hadn't asked them to.

If only we could get notifications direct from HMRC, pay them, then the GPO has to deliver it. I bet we'd pay less!

I'm being extra cynical today, but how much do you want to wager that there's a goodly bit of lobbying that goes on expressly to prevent you from being able to deal with HMRC directly so they can charge that (IMO) exorbitant fee?

Has anyone heard from any channels that the to-be-airfreighted kits were finished up? Not that my painting queue is particularly short, in fact I'm pretty sure it will outlast me and any hypothetical children.

Don't think that's cynical at all, in fact, that you're phrasing it as a possibility rather than reality marks you as something of a hopeless optimist.

Then again, I'm a misanthropic Brit.

I've already gotten my black widows, so yes, stuff is going out.

Not sure what order it's going out in, but it is being sent out.

Word on the street is that the order is based on people's posting attitude on Dakka. The more negative the poster, the longer one has to wait. Azazelx's package will arrive by Western Union 50 years from now a la Back to the Future 2.

Apparently they were waiting on a container. Got this today.

We apologize for the delay. Our final supply shipment of stage 3 product, containing items needed to fullfill your pledge was delayed by the union strikes in California. We've been eagerly awaiting the shipments arrival, it just arrived late yesterday afternoon. We'll be resuming shipping on the kickstarter as quickly as we are able.

You will receive a notice with tracking information from our shipping department when it has been sent.

Thank you,

Wargames Factory

My pledge was number 600 and something - I contacted them a day or two ago about changing my delivery address due to moving house, and they advised my pledge was heading out this week (I didn't ask when it was going out).

My pledge was mostly heavy troopers and widow makers - no APC's or command squads.

I think there shipping things as they land in - so those with just 15mm parts received those when shipping started, next is people with just widowmakers, and now it seems the heavy infantry. The command squad were last in the queue so sadly, are likely to be last to arrive.

The last of the air shipment must have been mostly the command squad, as everything was marked as completed. We know for a fact that the 15mm Mortis and arms gathered dust for a while in China, as well as the APC. Some of the extra kits for the APC were done late as well. So I think it was mainly those who are coming in by air... which would or would not be affected by that union? I don't know.

I tried the armor on the right arm and for some reason it does not fit i might be doing it wrong though. It will not fit on the scythe though the pistons get in the way

In the flurry of good news, I might have missed it, so I'll ask and you can chastise. Did anyone receive Valkir and are there any side by side comparisons with, say, Space Marines or even better, Terminators?

The last update seemed to indicate that the container had 15mm stuff and APCs. I'd have expected to see some APC pics by now, maybe they haven't been sent out because the other kits haven't arrived and no one opted for APCs only?

EDIT: NM I just reread some past posts and someone mentioned APC shipping notice :p

All I ordered was an APC, still no shipping notification :(

But I don't really mind, my life has so little free time that it wouldn't get built anyways.

Yeah, I got mine just before the end of the year, and half went to SonofRuss, and half to Bolognesus (still in transit since he's further away ). I kept a few arms for myself to convert my 5.5" resin Leviathans with and the sprues look really great!

Are they shipping APAC etc from the US or direct from China? I've forgotten.

They shipped Tablescapes to you, but I think Dreamforge is shipping from the US. It must be because they didn't have a deal with combat company for this part.
