The quality control aspect of FW (if they have one?) strike again. I ordered a Phoenix Bomber a few days ago, and it arrived in the post today. So hats off for speedy delivery. Now the problem....
The bag says Eldar Phoenix Bomber, all the parts are for the same kit. Except for the body, which is the Void Dragon varient; what the  . Phoned them up, and now i will have to wait potentially 3 weeks for a replacement. Massively unhappy with FW at the moment.

If you're lucky they'll just send a whole new kit and, bam!, free Void Dragon.

Hey, at least they'll fix our order for free. Customer service is a big plus, IMO.
Still, it sucks that your order got mixed up. Hopefully everything will work out better in the future.

Well. If you really don't want it....
I've not ordered much from FW, but I've failed to be blessed with a mix-up so far.
A pity the replacement takes so long, but you can try casting yourself some more parts, for a 2nd vehicle.

Like the others have said so far, you just nabbed yourself a free void dragon with your proper order. Yeah it sucks that you have to wait alittle longer for your proper order.. but it could be worse.

Im not sure why you would be pissed. The Void Dragon Pheonix is only slightly different. You now have essentially two pheonixes with a bit of plasticard and greenstuff. That being said i am very disappointed with the rules for them so im not sure what you would want with even one. Nightwing is just better. However, rumor is that the new eldar codex is releasing a fighter/bomber kit that you could easily sub the pheonix into.

They make mistakes. Many companies do. Don't be so utterly enraged by the fact they slipped up on this order.

Now i don't have an all FW army, however i had made quite a few (too many according to OIC Domestic) orders over the years, and i can count on one hand how many have turned up correct and fault free. It's not the mistake itself, its the frequency.

Ok well for me, in 6 years of mail orders from FW I've only ever had to return one order. And that was because I received the entirely wrong order... they were still pretty quick about it though.
EDIT: make that 2 orders, I had to replace the sword arm for Culln as well...

Usually, even though I explain it in great detail to GW what part I miss or is miscast...
They send me a complete kit.
I understand it's probably cheaper/more efficient, but it feels like a waste.
