Well, per the tracking site my package allegedly left San Francisco Sunday night. Not sure why it's taking more than 2 days to get to Los Angeles...

Got this guy today and I'm very, very happy with him. I"m not sure the padding is accurate, but I'm even okay with the glasses. If you don't blow up the image to 10x actual size, they're decent.

Nice pics lalala 
Yes, blowing your figures up until they're 10x actual size and a mole on the left cheek is obviously 3/4 of a mm out of place and then it's totally horrid always makes me wonder.
Nice pics, might put a very light wash through the beard.

Use track-trace.com, then select post/ems - it'll handle almost any UPU tracking number.
Im using https://www.17track.net/en/
i tried track-trace.com, and also no info, this in regular airmail not EMS

If you're not getting status via those tools at the post office of record, it means the package has likely not been scanned yet. In my experience with these orders passed through a freight forwarder, it's taking up to a week or more for them to get scanned after the number has been issued and up to a few days before the number even shows up on the postal system as "pre-advised."
It's been almost 4 weeks for one of my packages and it hasn't yet arrived in the destination country.

Exactly the same situation, first time threezero sends my figures using airmail which sucks big time.
Cool. Where did you get yours from?

Here's what my tracking looks like for this figure:
Shipped/Tracking email received from Threezero on November 11th.
And my 3A order from them:
They said it was shipped on the 22/23rd, then on the 25th in direct response to an email said I'd receive the tracking number once it ships. Doh! Finally on the 29th an email with tracking number arrived.

I am having the exact same status at the moment, but does it mean it has LEFT the country or not? cause it seems so weird that the ready for shipment and the item has left the originating country are switched around.
And where are they actually shipping from? Cause to me it seems weird receiving a Dutch trackingnumber from a Hong Kong seller.

If this is what he looks like on my shelf, then I have no qualms at all. I will darken up the beard though with some red and brown.

Individual packages to some countries ship from the Netherlands. What they're doing is going through a freight forwarder, so they pack up a container or many shipping palettes which the forwarder takes from them at their warehouse or local port. Then the forwarder moves them around on their own in bulk to different shipping points (by whatever means, we can't know). From these shipping points they dispatch to various destinations using local postal services.
One of the reasons for weird messaging in the tracking is that the numbers are generated before anyone at the postal service touches the goods. There may even be updates as paperwork is processed and scanned prior to the goods being received. IMO, the biggest issue is the choice of certain less-than-ideal departure countries for specific destinations.

Direct from Threezero - arrived with Robocop. And ironically HALO is coming from Sideshow today.

I'll post pictures later, but mine showed up today and looks great! The beard is darker than some of the previous photos I've seen so I don't feel the need to darken it now. Also, the seam on my head is nearly invisible.
The glasses don't bother me, either. Maybe if the lens were missing I'd like them even better. I'm still not sure how I want to pose him... I just wish he came with an in-scale bag of meth.
Anyway, it's great that Hot Toys has competition. I'm quite pleased to NOT pay $200 for a figure these days.

I wasn't impressed with the sculpt in the first pics we saw but it looks much better in lalala's pics.

Can you drop us some pictures too? I would love to see more. Glad to hear you're pleased with him! I'll be doing dyed salt crystals in mini Ziploc bags to make my meth baggies for him.

You bet! I left mine at work so won't be able to post pics until tomorrow night.
