Title: May 4th VV FlexV2 run updates?
Post by: The Force Is Strong on November 27, 2018, 05:06:51 AM

Any updates on the first run of the VV FlexV2 from May 4th? looking to see if anyone has received theirs yet or if there is a shipping estimate? We have to be getting close.

As per the website, Limited Edition Runs typically take 6-8 months from order placed until order shipped.  These have just started shipping and will continue to do so over the next several weeks  :smiley:.

Anyone receive theirs yet? I am still patiently waiting, now past the 8 months mark.

It’s hard to predict when some of the runs come to fruition. For example, the VV TFU2 run is about to hit its 5 year anniversary: TFU II STARKILLER CONCEPT TRAILER SABER RUN (https://www.fx-sabers.com/forum/index.php?topic=42677.0)

Oh God, same old song and dance with the TFUII.  We have done dozens of successful runs since then.  The TFUII is an anomoly, everyone on the run (less than 20 individuals effective) is aware of the situation and has decided to wait.  Since then we have served over 20K customers.  So give us the 20 that we are working with on an unusual set of events.

The Flexes are a Limited Edition, we predict a 6-8 month time frame on those with a very transparent honest statement that some can go a bit sooner some a bit longer.  In fact, from the website "*These are all hand made to your specifications and timeframes can sometimes be longer than our posted Combat Class timeframes, it is not unheard of for Limited Editions to take 6-8 months or more"

Good news though, more than 50% of the run has shipped so far with the rest shipping in the next week or so which is right at the 8 month range promised.  No drama, no nefariousness.  All is well in Saberland.
