As of yesterday, September 26, 2021, this build is on hold again because the Issue 26 magazine for the next shipment is out of stock. There is no ETA when it will be available.
UPDATE October 11, 2021: Out of nowhere, I received a shipping notification for Stages 95-106!
UPDATE October 15, 2021: I did receive the shipment that should have been Stages 95-106, but Stage 103 was missing. I had to go through the new process of taking pictures of an stage that doesn’t exist and email them. Unfortunately, I still cannot continue with the build until I receive the replacement front right door that does not have the side mirror slot in it – this arrives with Stage 107.
Hi, Im so glad I found your page, I am doing this right now. I just finished putting the left rear door on I think #88 or so
So Im right at the 90 mark
Every other week on Friday they send me 3 issues with 4 parts in it, so I get 12 bags of parts
Iv e been trying to get this done as fast as I can
But I did go through a period where they had nothing to ship to me, I had maybe a 6-8 week wait and got nothing til I contacted them. .They charged me for the full size license plate and I still haven’t gotten it yet.
But thank you so much for keeping up to date with their parts and what’s being delayed!
take care
Mike
Glad to have you here! The full-size license plate is a gift and you should not be charged for it. The special issue for the proton packs is an additional charge though. I have stages 95-106 arriving tomorrow, but I want to wait for 107 for the replacement front right door so the stages are not out of order here.
Yeah what’s all that about? I just got 90-102 coming to my house tomorrow. I’m not supposed to put the door on until 107??
You can actually skip 91-94 and continue building. Just go back and do 91-94 once you get the replacement door. I just don’t want to confuse my visitors by jumping around. It shouldn’t be long before 107 arrives.
Ok so I went back and read your article from August, Im not sure I got the wrong door.
I never received a letter from Eaglemoss about this so maybe I got one of the fixed doors??
I can post a photo if you want, do you have a photo of what the wrong door looks like to compare?
I started my build Dec 2020, and Im on #100
So I have 41 more to go and this is done
I dont mind waiting for 107 for the correction Im just wondering
If your right front door has the slot for the Wing Mirror, it is the wrong door. The replacement door has no mirror slot. Eaglemoss did say they would start putting the correct door in Stage 91 at some point, but based on my experience they never go back and correct old stages. They would start including a piece of paper explaining that a new door would be coming later.
I got the first 2 issues back in June and I’m still waiting for more issues almost 5 months later because they don’t have the license plate and ran out of IOU slips and they said their is no way for them to bypass the free gift, it’s ridiculous, they literally can just print IOU slips on a printer lol
I still haven’t gotten my plate yet either!!!
Any more updates coming??? I was never billed for anything this past week. Are they out of parts for this car
I dont get any updates from the company, Im over a year into this build with only 40 parts to go and suddenly its silent. I hope they start to let me know what’s going on. This is crazy, all this money for parts every other week and you’d think the company would have some decency to contact me and let me know what’s going on with the parts to the build.
I have stages 91-106 here, but I am waiting on 107 before I continue the build so we have the correct door.
Oh my bad. Sounds good.
Seems like all parts past about 100 are all backordered.
If I had to guess they probably didn’t produce them yet and their scrambling to catch back up.
I was hoping to get my build finished by Christmas. Let’s hope they at least get the next 10-12 bags of parts ready to ship in the next 2 weeks.
40 parts away and I haven’t gotten anything in almost a month now. What the hell happened??
Global shipping is a mess, not much Eaglemoss can do about it but wait. Tons of products are out of stock everywhere and what is left is more expensive. We are all stuck in the middle and we just have to be patient.
So today I contacted them and agreed to skip 107 until it comes back in stock.
So once I get my next shipment of 3 issues and 12 parts if you’ve like I’ll post some photos of what’s in them if you’d like.
Just let me know.
You bet, I do like to update my BUILD page with the issue contents!
Wow this part delay is really long.
Yeah, I have Stages 95-106 here, but I am waiting on the replacement right front door in Issue 107 to move ahead.
I’m at stage 90 now. Stage 94 is out of stock so I’m stuck waiting on that.
Ive contacted them multiple times to skip and just give me anything so I can start building again,
and nothing! I keep waiting for them to take the money out of my card but they dont.
Its been 4 months going on 5, I could have had the Ecto all built and done by now this is. horrible and frustrating
I know everywhere is a mess and there’s nothing we can do but do what Im doing now,
venting. Hopefully everyone is hanging in there to just waiting like me.
I finally got an email that they are sending me some new parts, It has been since August I believe, so
almost half a freaking year!!!
I should be done this build and it should be in the case right now.
I know shipping is a mess, and I know they can’t help it, but I have had no contact from them
I am a paying customer just like everyone here and it would be nice to know that they give a shit about me,
they have just ignored me til now for when they need to go into my credit card and get their money
I feel cheap and used!!!
Any news on stage 107? It looks like lots of people are getting it now.
I believe those people are in the UK. I have had no notice of shipment here in the US.
I am having similar problems with deliveries. I am way behind everyone else, (Just completed issue 18, & awaiting issue 19). I was told it was dispatched last month, & told to wait 21 days, which has long gone & still no delivery. I certainly will not be doing any more builds from Eaglemoss. This experience has put me off doing any more builds. I have had similar problems from other companies where issues are not sent, forcing me to stop my builds half way through.
So I was finally told my issues 102-114 were coming. They took the money out. After 2 weeks nothing. They quietly put my money back in my card and now I’m getting nothing.
I’m ready to freaking scream. What the F is going on over there?? I get a different story from each agent. Why did I do this stupid magazine model. I’m the real idiot for thinking this would ever work. It’s been 6 months going on 7. No parts. This company is garbage.
I know how you feel. I only received three issues in all of 2021 and it’s been almost six months since the last one. If I didn’t already have so much money sunk into this mess, I’d melt it all down into a cylinder, mail it back to Eaglemoss, and tell them where to stick it.
My original idea was to finish the Ecto-1, then move on to the BTTF Delorean. Not any more. IF I ever get to finish this thing, I’ll never make another purchase from Eaglemoss again and I’ll take every chance I get to warn people away from them.
I dont blame you, I havent gotten a shipment of parts since October 2021, just yesterday I was notified that my next shipment of parts shipped out for issues 103 – 106. If I wasnt so far along I would cancel this as well but I have too much money in this build to just cancel it.
It has how ever open my eyes to steering clear of any future builds from Eaglemoss how ever. I think I might do the Super Snake that World of Wayne is doing at least that is not through Eaglemoss. I would love to do the Galaxy class starship but even that has issues with light leaks and everything
Wow – Looks like I found a lot of people in the same boat as me! Hi all!!!
I’m also stuck waiting for issue 27 and haven’t received parts since October 2021.
Just got off a live chat with customer service and they are still confirming what most have reported – parts are out of stock and they have no idea when they’ll get more.
I asked if I could skip the out of stock issues, and was told something to the effect of, “If you skip out of stock issues – it’s the same as saying you don’t want them. And we will not go back to fulfill skipped issues/parts.”
Super cool! I would love to pick up another kit – but I’m guessing I’ll run into the same issue. 🤷♂️
