Good news everyone! (in Australia) - I've recieved my wave two box!

The bad news however is, it was missing the leviathans, and only rexeived the extra arms and cap coolers for the two mortis I ordered. Since the Mortis shipped to the US, it might be another miscommunication where the chinese branch broke all their orders. At the very least, they broke mine... let's hope it's just that ; p

Didn't receive any shipping info for it after the initial communication for my phone number and address confirmation.

have you emailed WGF or Dreamforge about this? Maybe post in the comments on the KS. Best to get an official answer then to hope mark sees it here IMO

**Yonan**

Yep was just looking into that. iirc there was a direct email to someone related to the DFG kickstarter at WGF?

edit: Think it's this: dfg@wargamesfactory.net
edit2: Email sent.

It could just be being shipped separately, but best to get on it quick just in case.

WOOT- Stage 2 has started shipping!
I know that many of you have been patiently waiting for news on stage 2, I just got off a Skype call with China and I am pleased to announce that the Pacific Rim has shipped!

For those in the Pacific Rim countries, WGF will be sending you your tracking numbers sometime this week. The shipment went out HK post via air delivery.

The shipment of arms to fulfill the Kickstarter US/UK/EU/Canada have left China via Fed Ex and should arrive in Utah later this week or on the outside early next. Neither Vulkan arm came with instructions, here's hoping it's straight forward or there's a copy online hehe.

Once they begin shipping the US/UK/EU/Canada orders I will post another update.

Thank you again for your support!

edit 3: Took some pics of the sprues of the nova and left hand vulcan arms in dakka gallery.

Hmmmmm Until Paul gets the shipping numbers sent I am in the dark on this one as well.

EDIT: Just spoke with HK, they said that the shipping boxes from the HK Post were too small to fit everything for many of the orders, so many of you will be getting multiple boxes over the next few days.
Once Paul has sent all the tracking numbers, you will be able to see if there are any more expected pkgs on the way or if there is actually a missing item from your pledge.

EDIT 2 : I have them looking into the instructions issue.... I will post on line but this is obviously not an acceptable situation for the retail release.

**Yonan**

Excellent, thanks for the quick response Mark! The quality of the stuff I received is top notch as usual, even if my dodgy photos don't show it too well.

**OrlandotheTechnicoloured**

Those all look spectacular

**Theophony**

Thanks for he pics yonan

now to start conta plating how I'll magnetize the gun arms armor to be able to switch left to right.

**Bolognesus**

For what I remember from how those fit: have you considered just using blu-tac? I know it's not quite as fancy but it works and it's probably the easiest solution. Fit is sufficiently exact it should work just fine

**Theophony**

Thanks bolognesus, that will probably be the route I go as the shoulders and hood on mine are left loose so I can get to my power switch and battery anyways.

**Bolognesus**

...That sure is one way of modelling battle damage ;D

What's the current estimate on when Wave 3 will ship?

Good question - which I don't think has an answer yet.

I'm fairly sure that no one in the USA has their Wave 2 stuff (or shipping notifications?) yet, maybe?

Let's wait until we get wave 2 in our hands first before we start clamoring for wave 3.

**Slinky**

Fine advice, if I didn't entirely back things from wave 3

Yeah, no kidding?

I feel you pain brother!

Just think about how awesome it will be when it all finally arrives!

**RiTides**

Awesome that Wave 2 is shipping to the Pacific Rim, and that the arms are on a plane heading for the US! I am also a Wave-3-heavy backer, but I am thrilled that Wave 2 is imminent because that puts us one step closer to my beautiful APCs

and 15mm scale arms!

**Alpharius**

15mm arms for you?

I thought you didn't get any 15mm plastic Crusaders?

Or are these for your slightly bigger Resin Crusaders?

**Krinsath**

He'll have his 15mm plastic ones by hook or by crook...and almost certainly before the arms come out.

**KalashnikovMarine**

I am excited. Very excited. That is all.

**RiTides**

WGF was kind enough to switch over the portion of my wave 3 pledge that I had dedicated to troopers to 15mm arms. At some point I'll be picking up a half dozen mini Mortises to put them on

I saw the 15mm plastic Crusader at GenCon and was blown away. It is amazing!

I'm very happy with my bigger resin crusaders for knights, but there's no matching the posability / etc of the plastic. Mark has really outdone himself with the functionality of these kits

**Yonan**

Concerns of giant stompy robots going astray were indeed premature.

edit: Images of hel cannon and Mortis added to Dakka Gallery.

Everything seemed to be present, including instructions this time.

All good things come to those who wait!

**KalashnikovMarine**

Woooo! I can't wait to get my four arms. I need to get my other Leviathan assembled first >.>;

*cough* me too *cough*

Woooo! I can't wait to get my four arms.

The Nova and H.E.L arms do look great. Well, the box covers and the sprues ; p

**KalashnikovMarine**

Those are in fact the arms I got! Hello turbo lasers and plasma cannons!

**sparkywtf**

I am jealous of those beautiful boxes. Good to see their shipping situation is improved this time around.

Most importantly, this means wave 3 is even closer! Can't wait for renders!

Hooray! He did use the curbstomp picture for the box.

**Mathieu Raymond**

I remember, a long time ago... talks about making building kits. Specifically those like that used on the Mortis box.

I do hope it's not on the horizon before Wave 3...

**ironicsilence**

I'd buy a city worth of those buildings

**Mathieu Raymond**

Me too. But not before Wave 3 hits.

**ironicsilence**

Let me ask you this, what if those buildings were made by a company outside of WGF and made it to market before wave 3?

**Mathieu Raymond**

Depends if they stole the design or not?

In all honesty, I've fallen on economic hard times, so I probably couldn't afford them. If I could and everything was legit, then yeah, they would mesh well with what I already have. I'd probably buy 5 or 6.
