JOYTOY 1/18 Scale TMNT

I got a package that started in Louisiana, got In Transit scans for 8 days, Arrived in the faroff land of Texas, and has now not moved another 4 days. Its seemingly happening all over.

Leatherhead officially Out For Delivery...
 
Same here. I want to hope that's just because of the high volume of packages or something, plus Christmas.
It’s usually the part that takes the longest. I too am attributing it to Christmas. This is why I try to never ship any non-Christmas gifts this time of year.
 
Roadkill Rodneys are on there way now, as is Metalhead. Leatherhead is finally on the shelf. Hoping the van's not it for this line, because I'm still loving it.
 
My Leatherhead is still in Illinois and now Metalhead has joined him. Who will exit the state first?
 
My Metalhead is still in "Departed from the original facility", so you've got me beat.

You know...put me into the alternate reality with our first female President, and none of this tariff bullshit. Please. Someone? Kelvin timeline this shit?
 
My Leatherhead finally has a delivery date too and it's tomorrow. Sucks it's on Christmas Eve when I won't be home, but at least it made it out of customs jail. I'm hoping I get lucky and the local post office has a runner out early delivering packages which they sometimes do around Christmas. Otherwise, my usual mail man doesn't arrive until 6.
 
This isn't JoyToy related, but IS USPS related.

I mailed something to my mother and step father in NY last week. It hit the regional hub before her local PO on Friday and then went to "moving through network" over the weekend and yesterday, which was odd. I looked at the tracking this morning, and it's now in KANSAS CITY, KS; which is NOWHERE NEAR her. I haven't even waited to see where it goes next, and filed a ticket in hopes of getting it back to where it's supposed to be.
 
I'm not sure if I just need more time with it, but I'm already not overly thrilled with how Leatherhead feels as a figure. He's "fussy" feeling. Also mine had one of the lobsters on his belt popped off and rattling around in the package. Going to have to glue that back (no biggy). The tail isn't a very good bendy either. Ah well.
 
Leatherhead’s long journey was finally completed yesterday, on Christmas Eve of all days. Glad that’s over. His bear trap fell off in transit. I’ll have to fiddle with him to see if I want to glue it on or if it’s better to leave it off.
 
Same. That was quite speedy. He’s awesome too. If you want to display him with all of his missiles firing it will likely take some patience as the parts are a bit fiddly. The grenade canister on the figure’s left on mine is a bit loose. Looks like it’s just a ball joint so I can tighten it up if I wish. Paints are incredible and he’s just a fun figure. Maybe the line’s best.
 
Just got my Metalhead. BOY. It makes me kinda hate the Leatherhead figure. This is a cool ass, fun toy, and the design is really good. What the heck happened to the poor Cajun?
 
What's with all the Leatherhead hate? I think he looks great. Bazooka in one hand, fishing rod on the other shoulder. He's got it made. One thing that annoyed me about Metalhead was that you have to take the whole barbell out of his wrist to put the drill on, so mine's just sipping some oil and flexing his other arm. And he too looks great.
