Yep, my Morti was waiting for me along with the Gatling type cannon and capacitor coolers. The cannon's box looked like someone sat on it, but fortunately the components look undamaged.

Sadly, now I have nothing more to look forward to until wave 3 items make it to retail :(

**Krinsath**

My stuff should be here Friday and UPS knows it's on a truck. Yippee!

Of course then I pull an Alph and leave on a business trip Sunday...

**Ulfar**

I received mine today (Philadelphia, Pa) but am a bit curious about the capacitor coolers and sword. Did anyone else get 15mm crusaders and not get the cooler/sword add-ons? FYI I wish I had gotten more of the 15mm crusaders, boy do I. Beautiful, just beautiful.

**agnosto**

Stuff received (Norman, Ok).

I might be wrong, but I think those freebies were only for the 28mm versions. My pledge confirmation from WGF listed the freebies for the 28mm both crusader and Mortis, but didn't list any for the 15mm.

If I'm wrong, I'm sure Mark will be along to correct me.

**inqscott**

Got my email today be here on Friday 9 pounds. I just got finished painting my guard to clear room on paint table. Mark when will start showing wave 3 progress?

I'm going to be seriously bummed out if that is true...

**Theophony**

According to the kickstarter page it was supposed to get both, and in wave 2.

**KalashnikovMarine**

My weapons arms should be here on the 28th. Hopefully my second Crusader will be assembled by then >.>;

You are correct. It could just be WGF didn't list them on the email they sent out when pledges were submitted, though I'm not sure that makes their absence from a package any less troubling.

**Mathieu Raymond**

Maybe they got pushed back to Wave 3 because of the workload?

**Yonan**

My stuff was in two boxes which arrived on separate days, could be what's happened here too?

**Alpharius**

Did you get 15mm capacitor coolers and swords?

**Azazelx**

Hm, I'd forgotten about that. I'll have to check mine when I get home, but I don't recall any swords or capacitors (or left handed vulcans for the 15mm versions I got...)

My main shipment got slipped to tomorrow, but my other WGF account (I'd finalized my KS pledges, and submitted the manager, when money came available and WGF/Mark opened up pledge accounts to the general public, so I made another WGF account) arrived via Priority Mail today. All that was in this level was one mini Crusader...but not the Capacitor Coolers or Excalibur. Hmm.

That lil mini levi has got some VERY small bits, though.

15mm free add ons was only the coolers and excalibur, not the vulkan.

Nah no 15mm scale stuff for me.

**NoseGoblin**

Hi guys, sorry about the lack of communication on the Cap Coolers and Sword, they had not cleared T1 when China was batching everything up so they did not make it out with the shipments to the stage 2 15mm Crusader backers.

I confirmed that they were ready to go and signed off on the final production casts. They will be sending these out shortly and declaring a very low retail value so you do not get stung by customs.

All the best!
Mark

**Yonan**

Mark with the quick clarifications as usual. Link to the KS update on this topic that just went up.

**Sikil**

No 15mm stuff för me either, but a bunch of weapon-arms are sitting in the postal office waiting for me to pick 'em up...

Can't wait för the APCs!!

**Azazelx**

Mark. This kind of dialogue is just not befitting a KS creator. You should take some pointers from brave pioneers like Raging Heroes for how to treat and communicate with the backers.

**Bolognesus**

I think CMoN/McVey have some pointers. **goes back to grumble in corner**

Indeed, this timely and considerate communication is most unseemly. Soon your Twitter-weaned backers will be demanding pictures and/or renders of wave thre.....wait we actually did that. Hrm...maybe RH is right about all this......

Seriously though, thanks for the update and good on WGF for eating the shipping cost instead of delaying everything for those two items.

**Alpharius**

Guys, we need to avoid even a hint of anything that could be considered shameful or negative in here.

Not even a whiff, please!

All kidding aside, thanks for the update on the 15mm cooling capacitors and swords!

Finalizing Stage 2

The bulk of stage 2 is out the door. The only item remaining is the capacitor cooler and Excalibur sword for the 15mm Crusader.

These did not clear T1 (test shots) in time to make it out with the main shipments due to mold fill issues. I spoke with China tonight about when we can expect these and they have made the tweaks to the runners and injectors and will be sending these out shortly.

Pacific Rim customers will have this item shipped directly from HK and a box for the US/EU/UK/Canadian customers will be Fed-Ex air shipped to the US and sent out once Utah receives them.

We will declare a $3.00 retail value on this item so that you do not experience an undesirable sting from the customs service in your country.

All the best!

**KalashnikovMarine**

That kinda bites for you 15mm brethren, but it's good to see it's being taken care of!

**Yonan**

Looking forward to some more unboxings and assembly pics in the coming days, from those that aren't as slack as us Aussies ; p

It'll be well after the extra bits get here before I manage to get to working on my Dreadkni...er...I mean mini Crusaders.

**Hulksmash**

I'm so excited. My shipment is estimated for Friday!!!!!

Even without the coolers and sword right now I'm pumped. And since I probably won't build them before those come in I'm really not to worried about it

**Theophony**

My tracking on ups is updated, not getting here until Thursday, but at least I can rest easier that the package is moving

I cant wait to see these hit retail and fly out again. Not sure if I'll get a 15mm crusader now or not as using thegrey knights rules aren't appealing to me at the moment.

I'd like to see unboxing pics

I also got emailed a 25% off coupon from signing up for info about Dreamforge at GenCon! But, it only lasts 72 hours and I'm holding out for the 15mm Mortises. Hopefully the kickstarter backers get a coupon around Wave 3 timeframe, and I'll order some of them then

**Hulksmash**

Yeah, I'm hoping for the coupon too. I'd like to pick up a few more items and so would a lot of the guys who went in with me. Especially some extra arms based on some of the newer releases
