Volks Horo, delayed yet again

October 11, 2009 | Blog, Figures

Checking up on my most anticipated figure it would seem that she’s been delayed yet again. Her original release date was “Fall 2009″ which was assumed to mean September 2009 but was later given a more specific date of October 31st, has been delayed until November 21st. Hopefully there’ll be no more delays, I’ve been staring at pictures of this rendition of Horo since they were first posted on the internets, quite some time ago.

Boo. Sorry to hear about the delay. Sucks when that happens. I’ve been looking forward to your review of her (still am, just have to wait longer ).

I just got word recently that Alter’s 1/7 Fate got delayed and I won’t be getting her until November so I’m in a similar situation. Not fun.

There are many delays at the moment, I find. Fate by Alter will go out only on November 13th (release planned in July), Jubei by Alter too will go out on October 29th (release planned in August).. I hope that you will have fast Horo, that I can see lovely pictures of the beautiful she-wolf (Volks disappointed me with Nanoha figures, then I did not order her).

I’ve definitely seen a lot of delays recently. I wonder what’s causing them all. I recall Saber Lily Avalon by GSC was delayed along with Black Rock Shooter. Saber Lily was supposed to be an August release I think and BRS was supposed to be September or August as well? Saber at least will ship soon, I got an email stating she was ready to ship, but no confirmation that she has yet. BRS I still have to wait longer on.

I don’t mind so much, as long as I do get them. Though I’d prefer not to have another fiasco like with my Good Smile Company Horo.

Let’s hope with all the waiting for it, that it won’t disappoint.

  That’s really my fear, that the figure can’t possibly live up to my expectations now.

  Oh Zetsubo Sensei, don’t despair, be patient. (I’m in despair myself though).
