So you guys had your glider and figure ship separately? Strange. Mine came in separate boxes but were packaged together in one shipper.

Mine arrived together in separate boxes, one all wrapped up in plastic and the other not at all. Weird.
OSK sent me two separate tracking numbers and they both had their own estimated delivery dates when they cleared Chicago on the 6th. The glider updated today and is in Louisville, but the figure did not update. I hope they show up together but they have always had different delivery dates, glider was scheduled for 10th and the figure was the 11th. With the ice and snow we just got hit with I'm not sure when they will arrive now.

I also ordered from OSK. The figure arrived yesterday. The tracking for the glider is showing it's still in China. Both were sent same day. I wish the were sent boxed together.
My glider arrived today and looks great. The figure is scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

Great news Buffinator and Stephan I hope you guys are pleased with the figure and the glider when you have both in hand!
Of course feel free to share as many pics as you like

Love this guy! Strangest smelling figure I've ever received, but otherwise he's superb!

Damn Buffinator, that figure looks really good!!! Thanks for sharing these pics!
Nice idea to have him there next to Doc Ock like that too!
It definitely seems that Toys Era has elevated their game considerably!
So can you take a stab at describing the odor of this figure? It seems like quite a few people have mentioned the smell. I’m sure it I will dissipate over time so that’s a good thing.

Thanks Omega and I agree, Toys Era has definitely upped the quality level as of late.
As for the odor (which has faded considerably already), it seemed to be a strong vinyl smell mixed with something else. All I know is that I had an immediate flashback to cleaning up my daughter's projectile vomit when she was sick with the flu many years ago.

Wow!
That sounds very unpleasant, thank God that it is fading

He just came in today, which was a surprise. He went to the wrong part of the state, and disappeared from tracking for a weak.
Great figure. Def. has a rubber/plastic smell that likely will fade away after a week. I find him scaled pretty well for 1/6 (HT seems to be over-sizing their figures more and more lately.)

If it's not an inch from my nose I can't smell it at all now. I think it's definitely a case of the packaging not allowing the off-gases to dissipate. Now that it's been sitting out in the open for a few hours, not an issue. I thought it best to follow up my previous post so no one takes my vomit smell comment too seriously.

Hahahaha
Understood Buffinator, I’m glad you got this great figure!
I recently ordered The Omniscient. This will be my first non-Hot Toys figure, I hope he comes out as good the The Fiend

That's an awesome pic jedijim, they look great next to HT Spidey!
My glider arrived yesterday but the figure may not be here till Monday, but it has given me a chance to really appreciate the craftsmanship of the glider! This thing is amazing, the details are over the top! They could have just done a solid plastic static glider and figure combo and we would have been happy with that, but this thing is a work of art!
Great shots davejames and Buffinator, thanks for posting them. They really helps with the waiting.

$270 what garbage, and people still pay these pimps. $230 was bad enough, it's not worth more than that.

It was $230 on preorder, almost every place jacks the price a bit upon release.

Which is a ****ed thing to do and shouldn't be supported by anyone here when some of us like to see how a figure turns out before spending $200+
Yep. You snooze you lose on almost any third party figure. Especially the popular ones. Most retailers offer a discounted price for preorders and then once the figure releases the price goes up. Been that way for a while.
