It’s looking like the uk supplier won’t be getting the next set, over the rat accessory, it’s a shame but I don’t blame them. Even more incentive to get from CollecfMajor.com if this is indeed true. |

Has anyone ordered from a specific shop for wrestling collectors before? Just wanted to know how reliable they were before ordering. [br Ordered twice from them for store Mattel exclusives. Both times I had to chase them 8 months later to get them to send. I know my experience was not unique, and they seem to have stopped selling Mattel shop exclusives now probably for that reaso. |

I missed pre-orders on everything before Series 9. I ordered a bunch from them because they are cheaper than ebay. I received Hacksaw and Magnum with no issue. They came about two weeks later than the official release from Collect Major. They have responded via email whenever I have reached out. |

Sorta off the wall questions here, I got my shipping notice yesterday for Dusty & the tracking says it’s being delivered by UPS … but when I ordered Magnum that one was delivered by the regular USPS mailman … is shipping by UPS something new they started? … it doesn’t really matter either way as long as I get it, I’m just curious why it changed … is UPS supposed to be faster or maybe cheaper for them to ship that way? Our warehouse prefers us to use UPS because it’s easier for them and UPS is just a block away from them. So it means it’ll get picked up and out to you faster |

Still waiting on my shipping notice granted I didn’t place my order til the 2nd to last day of the preorder window. I just checked my tracking number that I received yesterday morning … according to the info the shipping label was created for it yesterday but UPS still hasn’t received the package to put in their system … so much for it being delivered this week I guess & I ordered on the very first day labels are printed, but it still requires man power for the picking and packing. I’m trying to be at the warehouse atleast 2 days of the week when new releases happen to assure picking and packing are being done to the highest of standards |

Thats gonna lessen orders as UPS guarantees high fees whereas at least with USPS there's a fair chance you wont get any at all.. |

Thank you all for your great work, “Dream Team!” Did you receive a separate new notice for that or did the tracking number in your original notice just update? … I’m still clicking on the tracking number in the original notification that I got on Monday & according to it mine still hasn’t made it to UPS |

Hopefully you’ll get yours soon too, along with anyone else still waiting! |

As someone who wasn't around for the LJN glory days, I never knew about them, or their much loved place within the wrestling figure history until I got into this hobby heavily in 2020. I now have 3 Big Rubber Guys in my collection, and realised the wishlist for me has blown out to include;
Dusty Rhodes
Magnum TA
Powers Of Pain tag team,
Red Legion Of Doom tag team,
Pink Tights Macho,
Demolition tag team,
Harley Race,
Andre
and undecided yet on whether to go with Red/Blue tights Flair.
Now you've gone and done Rock n Roll Express which is an instant pre-order, Bruiser Brody lurking somewhere and Arn Anderson/Tully Blanchard in 2025. By my count, that's 17 BRG by the time 2025 has rolled around! And I'm doing EVERYTHING possible not to grab Macho King. Well played Major Figs...well played

Went from approx $30cad with USPS to approx $40-60cad with UPS. However when ordering the Blue Bulldogs from the other store I was not charged any import fees as they marked the total lower on custom forms. |

With usps its often nothing. It pretty much depends on if they randomly open it at the border. If they dont its nothing. If they do its a BS 10 dollar charge for nothing and then tax on whatever the person listed the value at. UPS like you mentioned (and fedex) are even more brutal.

I just got my shipping notification. My guess is they are packing them & printing out labels but not taking them to UPS or getting a UPS pickup but once maybe twice a week. So it is sitting piling up with the other orders getting packed waiting to go out. If it doesn’t update in 7 days then reach out to them. |

I’ll bet money that you’re right about it being piled up somewhere with other orders … Monday will be a week since I received the shipping notice so I’ll give it until then before I contact them, provided I can keep my aggravation at bay that long … another problem is that tomorrow is Friday & they don’t seem to be doing any shipping on weekends … and btw, my shipping notice was created very early Monday morning ( 6:49am to be exact ) |

This is just the pre printed label process unfortunately. |
