No. These are the artcards, without the text and logos.

My buddy's copy came in today. That's quite fast EMS shipping from China to USA.

Fast!

[RANT] Personally, I find it ridiculous that resellers and international orders are already been shipped, received, and resold. Domestic customers haven't even been able to pay for the preorder yet because the Blufans forum has been down for the past few days. [/RANT]

It's probably due to international EMS shipping and certain logistic terms. Those who paid regular shipping will have to wait longer. I see some on sale from China. I'm sure your copy will arrive soon .

I got mine today, haven't gotten my tracking number but I got my shipment! ;D

My rant is that we haven't even been able to pay for our preorder, let alone choose the shipping method. Those sales from China are most likely resellers, and there are many of them. The point is members of the Blufans forum, including VIP members, are not able to buy their copy yet, while everywhere else are getting theirs already. [/END DOUBLE RANT]

 

[charleybusko]

@domalorite I certainly understand your concern
hopefully things will change in the future

Your rant is justified. I know how I would have felt if some US retailer would have done it. Out of curiosity how big is the BF customer base in China?

I always wonder why things are not improving with BF. There forum is frequently down, new website is nowhere to be seen, pretty much all releases has some hiccups. Do people on BF forum give any feedback and do you things improving with them in near future?

Purely empirical guessing from the activity on the BF forum, I don't think there are many BF customers, hundreds maybe. For quite a while now the quantities made available to BF members to buy has been no more than a few hundred. A lot of members have complained about not being able to buy a copy, while international GB's and resellers on eBay and Taobao can seemingly get as many as they want. Even VIP members do not get any guaranteed preorder. And I can say that being a BF VIP member is nothing special. Yes there are snippets of info here and there, and we can group chat with the Blufans owner, but that's it. To be honest being a VIP of Kevin's GB has more benefits...

If things are to improve its going to be very slow.

Wow @domalorite I was under the notion that the BF forum members had first dibs and were influencial in the decision making process of releases. Boy was I wrong lol. I think Blufans needs to pay attention to the competitors and new players in the game (FA & to an extent Nova). There needs to be QC and packaging improvement as well as more attention to detail. It's very competitive now. That being said, I'm glad to hear that there'll be a Marvel Phase 2, but hopefully it'll be more smoother.

 

[cooey]

Looks awesome!! Cannot wait to get this to add to the collection

 

[Aw 83]

Still waiting to receive my order as its been shipped and will turn up at any time know...

This may be the first release where Blufans members are not the first to post in hand photos.

My thought is that the majority should be serviced first before the minority.
