For those who missed out before, the maker of that SHMA-scaled USS Argo is doing another production run. The jet has a 12cm wingspan, and will cost you $50 USD + $20 shipping. Stand not included.

PSA: If you're planning on getting a 9modelism Jungle Lord or Jungle Lord EX version, place your order by the end of September. He's no longer going to sell the figures after the end of the month, and does not plan to make the figure available again.

Here's the rest of his post I linked, it's just saying he's starting to ship out figures but is having to use a different service which is slightly more expensive, so he's doing small batches of shipping in hopes that the other service will reopen soon.9Modelism wrote:I'll also stop selling Lord of the jungle in the end of this month.
This figure will not be available later since I didn't want to deal with revoltech joint anymore, it's just too much work for what it's worth.
9modelsim wrote:Hi, I have some good news
Jungle lord is able to ship right now for USA, the thing is the service I normally used is not available for me so I've to the other service which is $5 more. Which I already send about 20 box this week.
Which mean I've lose out for $100.
The only reason I'm shipping is that I don't really know when this pandemic will stop so I want to ship while I still can, and that if I didn't ship my order I can't sell my new work since it's not appropriate to open a new pre-order when some of you have waited for the whole year.
But I'll ship in small batch,since I don't want to lose out too much. to pay for $5 might sound so little, but I've 200 order to ship, so basically $1000.
That's why I'll shipping in small batch in hope that the other shipping service will be available soon so I'll not lose out too much. Once that service is back I'll ship all the order at once.
For those that didn't live in USA it'll be case by case, If what I have to pay for you is more than $5 then your order will be on hold a bit til the cheaper service is back. Or you can pay a bit more so it can be ship,but since you already wait for so long wait a bit might be a better option since it's cheaper that way.

Re: 3rd Party Figures
I'm glad he seems to have gotten this figured out finally, though losing out on all that money due to the extra shipping sounds rough. I hope this whole mess won't hurt the sales of his next figures too badly, guy could use a break.

Re: 3rd Party Figures
I was told the figures I make if I were to sell them since they are licensed characters is "illegal and a scam since they look like shit and are an abomination" lol. They're my sculpts and I won't call them by their trademarked names. 3rd party transformers and jungle lord did it.

Re: 3rd Party Figures
Anybody ever see this guy's store?
https://www.shapeways.com/shops/microre ... h+Wars&s=0
He sells little 3D printed figures. They're unpainted and fairly pricey, but he's got a handful of Godzilla characters that don't have figures, like Super Godzilla...
And... oh yes... H I M
In all seriousness, I don't believe I've ever seen a Bagan figure for sale, or any video game Godzilla characters, so I thought it was worth sharing if anyone's interested. He's got a few there.

Re: 3rd Party Figures
Those models look... Exactly like 2009MECHAGODZILLA's animation models.
Guess they got permission. Those are really good models.

As I understand it he is no longer accepting new orders for it, he wants to focus on shipping out the orders he already has and then move on to new figures.

Re: 3rd Party Figures
I definitely do not recommend 9Modelisms work, as he was very unreliable.
As nice as it would've been, I ordered my Kong figure July 14th, 2019. He told me I'd be part of batch 3, then come 2020 and he's telling me he's working on getting my shipment out, then come January, February, March/ June, July, August, each month he gives me a different story. I saw he then broke his hand and I told him it was no issue, and to take his time as I understand he's just one person. During this time I also see a bunch of reviewers (including one or 2 right here on this forum) get their little "Review Sample", which was odd to me since, considering it was a small release, you'd think everyone would get theirs based on batch and not recognition. But I'm sure they likely PM'd him and personally asked for an early sample due to their rec.
Then comes October and he tells me he's shipping it next week and I'd receive tracking info, next week comes, nothing. Week after, nothing. I ask him how far along is my item because it's been more than a year already. He tells me he shipped it but it got lost in shipping and he could ship another in a week or two.
So I just told him I'd prefer a refund.
If you guys are looking for a reliable team of 3rd party guys, I highly recommend PhotonCollectibles. They keep you up to date and are very organized with their batches. Good luck to those of you trying to get your hands on a Zilla within the next 2 years.

Re: 3rd Party Figures
I mean, all of the reasons he's given have been valid and I've been in contact too(and my order, which I haven't got yet, was placed around the same time, I was one of the last of Batch 2). It's not like it's been a constantly changing story on his part, it's consistently(after the initial delay from his hand breaking) been "COVID has screwed up shipping internationally and he's having trouble with the the services he's using". I'll admit it's not fun having to wait so long for it but I don't consider him unreliable due to things outside of his control. People have been posting recently about getting their figures so he is getting them through the mess that is shipping, it's just not easy._JNavs_ wrote: ↑Tue Nov 10, 2020 10:44 pm I definitely do not recommend 9Modelisms work, as he was very unreliable.

Anyway, this dude was beaten to the punch, a Bagan garage kit has popped up now and again at Wonder Festivals in Japan, and with Toho's blessings to boot. I have a gut feeling the dude you linked is posting these models without permission, I saw no mention of the people who made the original Super Godzilla, Bagan, and Orochi models. The Orga one looks like it's straight out of GU, too.

Re: 3rd Party Figures
Yeah originally I'd ask him every month since December of 2019, with him telling me my order would be shipped out the next month/ the next week. So it was getting extremely tiring, and then COVID struck and I just had a hunch "something" would happen where I wouldn't get my order.
Then restrictions lightened up in September of 2020, he made a whole post about it, and the figures were supposedly being shipped again. I asked him Sep-Oct what the case was, and I continued to receive the "next week" after "next week" and it just got to a point. Then he says it shipped but I'd have to wait 7 days for the tracking info? And then I was the one who contacted him 2 weeks later, he never, never, contacted me directly. It was like pulling teeth, the entire situation became very frustrating, then it came to a head when he told me "it must've gotten lost I'll ship another next week"
Just not a good experience, it seemed like he wasn't really trying to get my order out. I also realized the figure is about 4 inches tall and filled with revo joints, so I just came to the conclusion that I could find something better to spend my 50 on.

Re: 3rd Party Figures
IIRC he might be able to get your address through the paypal payment or something? IDK. I just asked for an update on mine(since some people on the page who ordered AFTER me have gotten theirs) and he said he's shipped mine out but the tracking numbers aren't working half the time when he's been giving them to people so he said if I haven't got it in a week to message him and he'd send another out.
