jkno Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 I guess RS stands for "Rarely Shipped" I sorry you folks have to go through this. What a bummer. It could also stand for Retard Scout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grendel_Blitz Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Well, at least their communication is consistent. I just received my confirmation of being in the SECOND WAVE. First wave supposedly posts this week. Second wave 3 weeks from now. WE SHALL SEE.... "Thank you for patience so far regarding the biker helmets. I can confirm you are in the second wave, The first wave will be shipping this week, To follow the second wave we are looking at approximately 3 weeks. We now have the water slide decals after the sixth attempt and finally got them correct in our hands. We apologise for the long delay and many thanks for choosing RS."

Yorkie Fett Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 From their Fb page; ' The first wave are now sporting some very nice decals. Moving on to weathering (where required) and clear cote. All first wave guys have been contacted by email...' When they say 'clear cote' does that mean they are putting a final layer of varnish over everything? Would think if that is the case, you'd want to give it at least a couple of days to cure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobaben Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Do I dare suppose each subsequent wave is in 3 week increments? I could handle that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Fett Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Ok, obviously they've missed their latest delivery estimate of this week. Shall we try for next week? (Sorry to be cynical but this was beyond a joke a long time ago). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikerScout007 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Considering I got an email from them today double checking if I needed weathering or not (I don't).... yeah, think they are missing their ship date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motorbiker Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 Last year in september they wrote me: Replica Prop serial number:115812 Helemt Issue Number:25 Firstly, sorry for the continued delay with your Biker Scout helmet. We have been working steadily on the project and have the first wave near completion. I can confirm you are in the first wave. We foresee the shipping date being around the 12th of this month. We will advise as we move closer to shipping these helmets and confirm the weathering requirements and preview images for approval of your helmet. Thank you for your continuing. We will see, what happens next..... and when! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motorbiker Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 Hi Matt, ordered (and paid) end of 2014. maybe they're rolling the dice about the Replica Prop Serial Number.... Don't belive, they're producing enough items in this short time from my number 115812 to yours 1151070 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does make sense as you ordered long before I did. Thanks for letting me know. We will get out lids eventually and that's all that matters. \m/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motorbiker Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 My TK is from them as well. They delivered on the next day after paying. The scout bucket is for completing my next costume..... Now I'm waiting for finalizing a very long time, but there is some hope. Maybe have the bucket just in time with ep.VIII 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
