I'd love to know what I said that warranted a total removal of my post? I specifically stated I wasn't going to pass comment on whatever personal situation is affecting the people who run Chella, but I can't see how my other comments about the lack of communication and the failure of Chella to keep customers (waiting for figures on order) informed about when they will be shipped warranted a complete removal of the post? this is a discussion about figures we've ordered (in good faith) from a company that is not communicating with their own customers about figures they have paid for, and are waiting to receive How is discussing not having the figures I've had on pre-order from Chella, for literal months on end, not acceptable in a topic about Chella? Total Bellshill! I can't complain about a product??? How's it a discussion forum, what's there to discuss if you can't complain. As an administrator, you doing exactly that! Complaining that we're complaining......nonsense We're supposed to be discussing the Chella Toys figures... And seeing as how nobody has received any for about 8 months, I'm assuming that we're supposed to be discussing the ones that have yet to even be produced... The ones that are currently being advertised... While the ones we're already supposed to have are seemingly MIA. But shhhh, that's not up for discussion for some ridiculously nonsensical reason or other. 🤫

I'd love to wax lyrical about my plans to mount the Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks combo I've bought in a frame and proudly display a famous British wrestling moment in history on my wall maybe if I ever receive my figures, I'll get the chance to display them as I intended

PLEASE TAKE NOTE WHEN REPLYING TO THIS POST! 1) This post is for discussion regarding Chella Toys figures only. 2) This post is not for arguing or fighting. 3) This post is not for complaining. 4) This post is not for talking about the people who run the company or anything personal regarding them. If you have an issue with these rules here please feel free not to reply. You've been warned. Thank you, JS The more I read this the more ridiculous it appears. Go on any message board in any forum on any site and the discussion is about absolutely anything regarding that particular topic. You’re basically saying you can go on a Premier League forum but you can only talk about a football. You cannot complain about Refs, Managers and players, you can only say nice things. And if you have any issue with these rules here please feel free NOT to reply, and you’ve been WARNED!! Do you actually realise what that sounds like? And how you come across as a person? Mate we’re grown men, I don’t think your Warning on an Internet forum is anything to be intimidated by. You sound ridiculous! Just like the little "I’ll report you to Daddy admin" post by whoever that was. And for what it’s worth I didn’t see any arguing amongst anyone until the post reporter and you stepped in and made it an argument. All that was here was constructive criticism about a toy company that now seems to be failing its customers.

See you guys failed the test, you all replied to the post. as I'm posting in the thread about you guys and about the topic at hand instead of replying to the post I have free reign discussing how the lack of updates on anything is unquestionable.
At this point, you can't even blame wrestling fans. Super7 releases were okay to start with, but series 2 was crap. Bossfight can get in the bin with their releases, their schedule and their customer service. ZST, enough said on that absolute piece of human garbage. Chella started off really well despite the negative press thrown at them, but they have essentially become an NFT company at this point, unless you live in America of course.
Let's hope Roush or whatever can produce something.
Wrestling trader will be shipping 88' Dynamite. But only if you ordered it alone. I think I did, so that's good news for me (Or whoever I sell it to I guess). Hopefully you guys didn't double dip otherwise you'll be waiting a long time. Sorry fellas.

Many of us have invested a lot of money in this line, we have a right to be annoyed, frustrated or discontent with Chella and their lack of products and constant delays. Instead your coming down hard on anyone who might say that they are upset at not receiving what they have paid for. Strange post.

For what it’s worth and ultimately wether we like it or not what admin says goes.
But what I would say, and what has separated this issue of discontent from others is this is not personal towards an individual and people are not arguing amongst themselves. There is a general feeling it seems of dismay, annoyance at the lack of info and with 1 or 2 exceptions everyone seems to be on the same page snd it doesn’t seem to contravene any rules - there’s plenty of posts criticising (unfairly I might add in my opinion) ringsides for slow postage times, or how exclusives are handled etc do it’s nothing new to be discussing things other than the figure aesthetics
The criticism is about the lack of info about the figures snd delays, not the individuals themselves. If all we could discuss is how a figure looks, or how to display it then the forum would have a fraction of the activity it has.
Just my thoughts 👍

If all we could discuss is how a figure looks, or how to display it then the forum would have a fraction of the activity it has. Just my thoughts 👍 I don't mind following coherent rules, but this sudden rule that we can't discuss the current lack of customer service and general information regarding pre-orders that are way behind schedule isn't coherent at all. It's completely farcical. This is a wrestling figure forum, and I can't think of a more appropriate topic in a Chella thread than the current lack of communication and MIA figures. There's absolutely no reason why it should be considered off-topic. I doubt there'll even be a coherent excuse given, because I can't think of one. ZST was rightly called out for his issues, as is every other company that collectors have taken umbrage with, but Chella are supposed to be off limits, for some reason. I've heaped praise on Chella for the most part, but the recent lack of communication from them has rightly soured me to some extent, and that's not something that's in any way taboo or somehow wrong. I'm simply a patient, paying customer who, recieving zero reply through their direct channels, is expressing his displeasure on a thread about the company in question, on a forum about wrestling figures. Censoring valid, coherent concerns and criticism is basically just petty, certainly when said concerns and criticisms aren't profanity-laden or made in a malicious manner. And on top of all that, I've been "warned," apparently. Absolutely embarrassing display of administration.

it appears there is radio silence across the board
Wrestling Trader are responding to queries about Wrestling Trader orders (obviously) and have confirmed they are in communication with Chella as regards their inventory allocation, but aren't in any position to answer queries about orders placed with Chella directly, so there is obviously some line of communication open between Chella and their distribution partners, but not responding to customers who paid directly?
WTF man?

I take the Chella preorders with the same faith as I've always collected Hasbro. I'll get them when I get them. I think I've got less than 10 Hasbros from any online sales, and the 3 I'm thinking of specifically, I bought from someone I knew personally who was in a tough spot financially. Yeah, these preorders are funding production. I thought we all kind of accepted that at this point? I have Haku, Greg Valentine, and possibly Gangrel preordered. I'll be getting Onita when he goes up. I don't particularly care for the person who runs the other company but I'll probably still order Bundy when he's up for preorder. It's shelf candy to me. and a 30 year old line getting new characters. some of you guys need to relax and take a breather

I did order him, but I wouldn’t order a 3rd figure without knowing when these two will drop. I’m totally relaxed, but there is no issue with discussing missed time frames when considering ordering from figure companies. In what other industry can you miss deadlines by months or years and when asked for an explanation have people leaping to your defense and acting like no info is needed?

I'm plenty relaxed, wrestling figures don't factor into my general day-to-day activities, and if you saw me in work, at home, in the supermarket, or down the pub, you wouldn't say, "hey, that fella has got some wrestling figure-shaped bags under his eyes, I hope he's okay." People don't stop me in the street and hand me Samaritans business cards or anything.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with asking why a company continues to make deals, promote upcoming endeavours and maintain a social media operation while simultaneously offering zero updates to paying customers and ignoring any questions from said paying customers. This idea that any paying customer simply needs to "relax" is a completely daft suggestion. I'm obviously posting in the most relevant place available to air these valid concerns. It's not like I'm spray-painting "Where are MY toys!!?" on the local YMCA building. I'm simply voicing a completely legitimate concern about a company that is ignoring their customers despite still posting about future products. Chella could probably do with relaxing on signing new deals until they honour the ones that they've already had the moolah for back when Tyson Fury still had a perm. Is it a big deal in the grand scheme of things? No. But this isn't the grand scheme of things, this is a Chella thread in a wrestling figure forum and there's very little Chella news to blather about at the moment. 🤷

Any word at all on the once rumored hiromi takahashi chella figure? Was to be an njpw crossover like jay white was, i believe. Forever shelved, or still to come?

Does anybody know the current email of Chella? I remember they switched it somehow, but cannot find it anywhere.
Thanks in advance.
On a positive note: I got my shipping confirmation for Adam Bomb GID! 💪🏻

weirdly, the Get In Touch button on their website doesn't actually work, which isn't surprising with the other stuff going on but the email address there is definitely their most currently advertised one
