Two questions:
1. Why is customs holding them up?
2. What other HM models are being held up?

should be everything on the new releases page? Or possible the one previous...HM is crap with it's Flyers/Timetable of releases I can confirm.
The one with the DAK Horch hasn't shown here in the US I think.
Customs, another reason I don't piss with HM/US releases anymore for stuff I really want. Wait 2 extra months for items isn't worth it.

Re: September HM stuck in customs!
U.S. customs often chooses containers to be emptied and inspected box by box. so it delays shipping from ports to the distributors.dragon53 wrote:AMERICAN_GRENADIER:

i have an update and the containers are now moving again. they hope to receive them by the end of this week.

Re: September HM stuck in customs!
Is this the shipment that was delayed..note Aug. "rolleyes" at HM's wishful thinking.

because I don't think this batch here has made it to US shores, but I may be wrong...the last US shipment I see is the one with the 234/3 and Opel Fuel Hauler 1940

Re: September HM stuck in customs!
Technically THIS should have been the SEPTEMBER allotment; according to HM logistics.
![Image](http://www.hobbymastercollector.com/sitebuilder/images/Monthly_Leaflet_for_Sep_Releases500-429x600.jpg)
AFAIK, this started to ship to HK vendors sometime 9.25, and could show up at their stores say 10.14-10.25, and here in the US..sometime in November..but prob closer to December as trends have shown with past shipments.
HM is getting as bad as Draggin when it comes to timing releases...or more should I say, HYPING up their releases and then failing to deliver on schedule.

Re: September HM stuck in customs!
HM has been pretty good for months. usually i receive monthly releases in the 3rd week of the month. the problem with customs happens and HM cant be blamed. i have some stuff thats been in cutoms for 3 weeks now.

Re: September HM stuck in customs!
Thanks A_G
Sorry for off-topic. I have read a long thread at another message board about HM paper catalogue, but can't find one anywhere. Any advice would be mostly appreciated.
Cheers

Re: September HM stuck in customs!
Has there been any news as to when the F-111 might be out?

With so many conflicting flyers out there, I would just like to know what is actually coming now?
