3/24/2023 0 Comments Forces of valorWe reach this decision based upon previous experience with this manufacturer together with logistical issues that will likely conspire to delay its arrival, perhaps into the New Year. Frankly, we have our doubts that this shipment will make it to us before the holidays. Waltersons, the owners of the Forces of Valor brand, today indicated that a new shipment is leaving China in early December and, their words not ours, will hopefully arrive at their facility in late December. We likely will only have a handful available to be listed across our marketplace sites until we are prepared to submit a re-order. On a positive note, we hope you enjoy FOV’s latest 1:32 scale combat vehicle once it does arrive. That’s not going to happen and we will continue to do things at our own pace to avoid mistakes, favoritism or anything else you can throw our way. I don’t want to wake up each day and read all sorts of missives that either talk down to us as if we were intentionally sitting on your order or hear how important it is that you be moved to the front of the line and get this item immediately. If this becomes a habit be forewarned because we will cancel any remaining orders you have with us and close out your account. If you cannot wait, then contact us to cancel your order and you are certainly free to place your order with another vendor. Sorry, but that’s the fairest method we regularly use when it comes to shipping out orders for a highly requested item. So, if someone placed an order back on March 2021, their order will be reviewed first before an order that was submitted say in October of last year. Once our shipment arrives, we will start by processing the Sherman tank orders, looking at the oldest orders first then the latest in chronological order. We’ve explained this countless times before so this shouldn’t be new to anyone. So, just because a manufacturer announces a new item, they have to make it, ship it overseas, pass through customs and lastly stock it with a distributor before it heads our way. We never asked for payment up front and we are the last link in the supply chain. Please do not contact us saying “I placed my order back on such-and-such date” or “I Paid you by PayPal and you’ve been sitting on my money ever since”. That said, we implore that you take a seat and relax as we start to process orders around the middle of next week. Some back ordered items will be hitching a ride on the shipment, including their latest Tiger I tank and the 1:700 scale take on the USS Arizona. We don’t have a definite date as yet for their arrival but we are tentatively looking at around the fourth week of February for them to be rolling in. With the 2023 Nuremberg Toy Fair fast becoming a distant memory, the principals at Forces of Valor have indicated that they are ready to begin shipment of their latest 1:32 scale Sherman tank, “Cobra King”, along with their 1:700 scale replica of the IJN Yamato battleship and their trio of 1:72 scale P-40 Warhawks. So we finally have some news to share regarding Forces of Valor.
