Even as we are just a scant two days away from Christmas, there is a large Eaglemoss shipment en route to us and likely arriving this week. Apparently, there is a lot of new items in the shipment, spanning everything from Star Trek-related goods to Battlestar Galactica. The list is too large to post here, so we will update our New Arrivals section once everything has been checked in and ready for outbound delivery. I don’t believe there is anything else expected before the New Year. Even if there was, the carriers are usually so busy trying to wind down for the holidays that we probably wouldn’t receive it until the beginning of the New Year.

News Update: So we’ve received the Eaglemoss shipment and updated our web site accordingly, indicating which back ordered items have now returned to stock along with all of the new items we were awaiting. We’re going to take a breather then upload all of these items to both Amazon and eBay, and resume shipments later this week. If you’ve been waiting for any of these items we’d appreciate it if you could hang on a bit longer and enjoy the holidays as we get back up to speed later this week.

For the last few months, we haven’t seen hide nor hair from Eaglemoss, which had been one of our monthly staples for several years running. We’ve heard all sorts of reasons why the line’s arrival has been delayed, covering everything from production issues to personnel changes. Frankly, we aren’t sure what the hang up is, since product seems to be readily available in Europe where the Company is based. We do know that the manufacturer has embarked upon a rapid series of expansions over the last twelve months, introducing new line extensions to their existing Star Trek starships range while also kicking off a couple of new series that include Battlestar Galactica and Aliens and Predator.  Moreover, they tend to use this time to get ready for Comic Con, which is scheduled to open in early October.

Right now, we aren’t sure when the line is supposed to resurface nor do we know where it will pick up from since its been several months since we last received a shipment. For all we know, everything we have been waiting for could arrive all at once, which is both good and bad news depending upon how you look at it. If everything does show up all at once, we are going to need several days to go through it all and marry up the new arrivals with our existing list of back orders. Obviously, we’re going to need ask for everyone’s patience if that occurs and we will do our best to update our web site where applicable. Keep your fingers crossed that we see some material movement later this month.
