no- as soon as the missing models have been restocked they'll go back to the pledges that were missed.

I'm in this boat as well...waiting is difficult though

Am I correct in thinking that all the pledges that have the delayed models will be fulfilled at the very end?

No, they said in the Reaper LIVE last week that once the minis arrive, they would go back and pull all the orders with those missed mini until they catch back up. That being said I'm in wave 14 with all 3 of them, so maybe in about a month I'll receive my minis.

Nothing happened on Friday so I am hoping to hear something today. If not, they said they would call me tomorrow and if I don't hear from them by noon, I am calling. I am trying to be optimistic but part of me is worried they won't be able to get it back.

 

 

 

And I just got the call. I guess they were able to get it back Friday as it is on its way again and already has one check-in in California. They anticipate PO hand off tomorrow so even with the delay it still should be here on its original estimate of Wednesday. The tracking does not show any updates but it does no longer show delivered but in transit.

Yay!  I'm glad they were able to find it.

 

Give us an update when you get the box - I'm curious if it will look like it remained unopened the entire time, or if Game Stop warehouse folks went through it trying to figure out what it was. (Check the bottom tape too, not just the top...)

My understanding is that as soon as the backordered minis are in the warehouse, Reaper will begin fulfilling orders that were delayed. Probably by wave but I don't think that was specifically confirmed. 

 

That means other orders in whatever the current wave is at that time will be delayed while they catch back up. So no, if you have a delayed wave 1, you won't need to wait for wave 14 to finish up to get your stuff shipped. 

 

Edit: wow, I don't think I've ever been ninja'd four times before! A new personal record. 

 

Seems you were caught in a half-shell, so to speak.

Will the Texan workers be on holiday for Easter? Will the UK ones be?

 

Both Good Friday and Easter Monday are bank holidays in the UK. I don't know if Reaper UK is using Royal Mail or a courier to send out the pledges, but Royal Mail will definitely have a reduced service over that weekend

According to Ed when they run out of product the orders will be pulled and set aside until the last container arrives at which time they will finish packing and shipping those orders.

If I interpret that correctly they will be the first orders fulfilled from the newly arrived product.

I didn't think they were going to pull them, I thought the entire order would be pulled once the rest of the components arrived?  Either way,  As soon as the stuff  gets there, they will go back and pack your order.

Mine is out for delivery and has been for 3 1/2 hours. Glad I didn't take today off and instead took tomorrow. 

[Thoramel]

Just got an update that my bones just passed through Lexington. This might explain why I'm feeling like a useless lump at work today as the rest of me is in Ohio!

Yeah my understanding is that business deliveries are generally first, so if you're expecting a personal UPS delivery there's not much point in planning your day around it. 

[Cintra]

Mine received their Arrival Scan here in Atlanta at 2:49pm! Should definitely be delivered tomorrow! SQUEEEEEE!

Has anyone heard if the ship has reached California? Wave 5 anyway so probably a week or two before they get to my order.

It's not due to make its California Port Call until sometime tomorrow.

These things rarely arrive early as there is rarely open dock facilities before the scheduled time for arrival.

Even if it does arrive a few hours early unloading won't start before the scheduled time because the longshoremen/crane operators aren't scheduled to work until a certain time so there is nobody there to operate the cranes, and the trucks won't be there anyway until the scheduled unload time.

I know people are saying they are out of huts.   Has anyone with frost giants gotten confirmation in wave 2?
