Makes me feel odd, cause the two pieces I got were ordered after yours SBell, but I had emphasized I needed them for a given show and date so they were made and sent within the time frame. I feel for you on this, I hope your patience is in fact rewarded....well for both of you. Sorry this has happened

It would be less frustratinng if we would actually get updates or responses.

I received a Moschops and Moropus from Malcolm yesterday.  I still am waiting on quite a few figures.  Malcolm didn't include any information just two figures in a box.  Has anyone heard from Malcolm lately or been in touch with him?

He hasn't replied to any emails or texts recently and removed his personal fb page.  I honestly have written him off at this point.  I was owed 3 1:1 Compies and my foulkes Torosaurus kit around 500.00 worth of pieces, i know he takes awhile but  has been years now. :/

I've been in the same situation for about 2 and half years...a hyena, an Arctodus, a Leedsichthys and a Ptilodus. I have ran into the same situation, with no repsonses to texts or message as well.

I am hoping that, given Stoneage's recent arrivals, that those figures could miraculously appear eventually...I want to believe!

when malcolm would reply to me i would let him know members here were still waiting on him.  I would have loved to give him more business for our park here too..but it's just too long. :/

My order goes back to April of 2014.  The only thing outstanding I have is the Leedsichthys.  Unfortunately that is what I wanted most.  Hopefully someday I'll see it.

Just a mysterious package of part of your order after he disappears for over a year, removing all forms of contact?

You shouldn't be looking for the rest of your order, you should be looking for a Top Secret message from a CIA agent off the grid. This man obviously has deadly assassins hunting him and is calling out for help! Don't take this to the police though, he didn't contact them, no... He chose YOU. It is your responsibility to decipher the message! Do it for your country!  8)

Malcolm has had some problems this past year and in previous years as well come to think of it, all in his personal life.  I won't air the ones I know of but I did cut him some slack for that.  not replying to questions and such though, scares buyers and makes us lose faith.

Yeah, I didn't push and cut all the slack I could. But an occasional "Hi!" would be nice.

Exactly. I did all the contacting..usually I received a " you'll have something soon"  but yeah any contact would give some hope.

You are lucky :D
Last I heard from him was almost a year ago I think, he was supposed to send me some of the figures I ordered from him way back in 2013 I believe. But like many, 2015 is now a distant memory and still no figures.
I have maybe about 6 figures I am waiting on, but mostly really hoping for that Leedsichthys the most.
Still hoping a big box will appear one day with all the figures :)

I know I don't--I don't think anyone does. I know he had mentioned that producing it was proving more difficult than any other model, to say nothing of the size!

Maybe someday. I think he has my current address, but I've never even gotten confirmation from him on that.


Blade-of-the-Moon

not that he's making it easy to contact him with addresses or anything.

I received an email from Malcolm :

QuoteHello,
I have been sending out stuff down to having big packages left including two large ones for you. They will be in my next batch. I apologize for the extremely long wait. I think you will be very very pleaded with the finished goods. I have been living a very strange life the past few years, no excuse for what has transpired, but its real hard to explain.
I asp appreciate the support and encouragement you have always given me, it may not show in my actions of late perhaps.
Malcolm

So..I kinda feel bad to have lost faith in him now..but I still think it was warrantedand in the right as were the rest of us who have been waiting so long. :/

That's just it--you have heard from him. But I haven't--not since I was able to text him well over a year ago. It isn't that I lost faith per se, I just really want to know what's happening. Mine had better be one of the two large packages, that's for sure.

I'll send you the email he responded from in case it's different.  I wish he would send me a list of what he has to ship, who has been shipped, ect.. then I could update everyone with it.  I did tell him you guys were waiting still and would appreciate an update.

any response from malcolm guys?

I actually did hear from him this past summer--he is still working on the orders he has, but I doubt he'll take more.

I did receive 3 of the 4 models I had coming (spotted hyena, Arctodus, really big Ptilodus). Just waiting for my Leedsichthys now!
