WHEN:
All Kits are on track to Ship Late April./ Early May 2022 (this means that all purchased kits will ship at the same time as opposed to the two per week staggered system as previously mentioned in Alder updates.)
WHY:
We are currently awaiting the professional printed decals from microscale, and some aspects of the final instructions for the assembly as well as the collector book are still being written. (we will not ship an incomplete product.)
ARE THERE ANY OTHER REASONS FOR DELAYS:
The answer to this question is yes and no the reason being know there are not any other reasons for delays with the exception of any potentially needed supplies in terms of urethanes or resins or silicones needed in the production of the kits may or may not be available at the time due to the limitations of the supply chain in its current state but that's another story so the tentative answer to this question is no!
WHO:
25 Pre-order customers will be able to use a password provided after purchase to log into Kit Lists page to track updates on purchase, and shipmenmt. (password if lost can be resent to individual by contacting EAD.)
