I wouldn't call it an "issue." It's pretty normal for stuff shipped internationally to have to make that stop through Customs. Getting them made abroad was the only option. Just like the movie capes were. :wink

These capes are over a year in the making but it's going to be worth the wait to finally have a completely accurate cape to finish off the suits! Can't wait to actually feel the material too. Almost scared to actually wear the cape for fear of damaging it, but it must be worn! :up

I feel like such a pain in the butt but I've been checking this thread nonstop. I can't wait for this cape. This is the finishing piece for my tdk suit. Definitely feel like a little kid again.

Great to hear we're on the home stretch for the capes. Although this is the last piece for my batsuit, mine won't be done until I lose about 30 pounds :grumble

Re: Electrostatically flocked parachute silk **SCREEN CAPE CLIPS PICS PAGE 14**
All day yesterday te package showed "On time" with a delivery of 2010/08/05. So I wait all day and when it doesn't arrive I call the courier. Apparently they were waiting on some info for Customs but nobody ever contacted me or the producer for it. I gave them what they needed and they said they'd get it processed. It is now showing as "In transit" but not yet of for delivery to mentor today. :cussing
Sorry fellas. I know it sounds like I have 1000 excuses but its reall out of my hands. I'll keep you updated. :grumble

DOH! :doh
I know its not you, just the damn customs. Kevin, I'll be glued to this post just waiting for you to say the words: I have the capes.
Wouldn't bother me but I have the big con of the year for me on 8/21 so I'm here waiting anxiously.
And the countdown begins...

I have the capes. :lol
My tracking all day yesterday said waiting to clear Customs so I had written off a delivery. Had the van all packed for vacation and pretty much ready to go when the courier pulls up. I tore open the box, threw a few capes in the van, and headed out. I'm in the middle of the woods right now but I'll see if I can find a post office this week. :wink
