Yes Doc. It was quite the adventure. Not sure if anyone on the forum would believe that these fine battle hardened resin gentleman by no fault of ours left England for the US mainland and the USPS cleared them through customs ( yes we both tracked them and anguished over them every time it happened) then the USPS decided to ready ship them to the UK a total of 3 round trips!
They've been to Long Island New York, JFK, New Jersey and Springfield Massachusetts....
Although slightly battle damaged I managed to take out Doc's original photos and color match them to rebuild and paint today.
These guys saw more turbulence than a b17 over Europe during a daylight raid!
All's well that ends well they say and they were absolutely worth the wait. I highly recommend Doc to anyone looking to acquire some scale figures.
Look on the bright side... Our issue was probably a total fluke thing
And if they survived this they will survive anything
