ah … yeah that does suck.
Given what’s been happening in the world I wouldn’t be surprised if the logistics didn’t work.
I think there were recent shipping issues from the UK to EU that may have hit them …

OTOH .. email is still a thing. You’d think they would have told you about these issues.
(but then … maybe that’s not how Bandai does things as they’d have to admit there were problems?)

I think it is just normal shipping times for now, John just got lucky to get it that quick.

It’s not Bandai shipping stuff. It’s a UK based “event and tournament organiser” who’s doing that for EU and UK.

But I did write them an email yesterday. Maybe I’ll get a reply.

John just got lucky

No, I’m sure he flew over to the UK to the event organiser and screamed at them all day long. XD

“Ask and thy shall have answers (maybe)” – Well at least I got a mail back:

Hi Tim,

Thank you for following up.

I can confirm that we received your participation and delivery details and that you are included in the European participant group.

Your runner kit was dispatched from the UK on 15 September. Unfortunately, tracking information was unavailable for European shipments, and delivery times may vary between countries.

The revised final digital submission deadline is 11 October 2026, with the winners currently scheduled to be announced on 30 October 2026.

The campaign information and guidance can be found here:

https://global.bandai-hobby.net/en-others/site/gundam-assemble/paint/paint-contest2026/

We require nothing further from you at this stage.

So there is that. 🙂

I got a mail as well with the same information as well.

But….. It says it is a runner…. Am I going to have to keep it on a leash before it runs away? 🤔

No, you just drug it.

Yeah I feel there might be problems with that. Brexit at it again probably?
