Fuck off meh. I am pissed. And drunk. I want to spend my 10 dollar coupon. However, you keep selling crap. It’s like all your shit is totally meh. fuck you, meh. I love you meh. Fuck you.
Due to a super ridiculous turn of events, (more on this below,) we’ve had to cancel several orders and partially cancel even more. Refunds have been issued and you’ll see those show up within 10 days.
Mini OHSHIT for your amusement/frustration:
What happened: UPS lost part of the shipment.
Scope: That box had 1272 units in it. Causing about 505 customers to receive full or partial refunds.
What we’re doing about it: Giving your money back.
Oh, and sending an email with a coupon later today. (Just making sure it’s working before sending the email.)
How we’re going to avoid this in the future: We can’t. Sometimes stuff just happens and it sucks.
@Thumperchick This makes me sad. I was so looking forward to giving them to people I’m not fond of (but have to give them gifts) as gifts. I was excited I was actually getting Christmas shopping done. Now I’m heartbroken. Although, I do appreciate the coupon…and obviously the refund when it shows up (why is it that it takes so much longer to get money out back into your account?!)
@Thumperchick I was one who received a partial cancellation. I just got the F-22. I was hoping to give the Mustang as a gift. After checking here I found the email in my inbox. Thanks for letting us know what happened.
@username I’ll have to agree. I think the instructions list tweezers and some form of cutter. While the metal is so thin a normal nail clipper can cut it, I’d recommend a full set of round, flat, diamond, and half round pliers as a STARTING kit if you don’t want to go half crazy molding the parts. I quickly turned to making my own forming tools out of chopsticks, toothpicks, and cutting down scraps of wood.
Went and got crazy and bought a set of three. Going to give them to people for Christmas. And seeing some of the comments about how frustrating they can be, maybe I’ll give them to people I don’t really like but still have to give gifts to lol!
@Ozzie2191@AGentleman Thanks fellas, my curiosity is satisfied! “A kind of middling number of pieces” is the answer to the question I meant but didn’t ask.
The last time they were for sale was on June 27th and it was a 5-pack then, so they must have sold out of some sets, or they found another shedload of them somewhere. I’m guessing the former, because that deal didn’t seem to sell out entirely.
Selling the dream? Or is the dream selling you?
Do you ever think about that Meh? Has it ever crossed your mediocre minds that the dream is selling you?
Maybe you have gone too far down the bore hole on Oak Island (keeping it fresh). Now you may be doomed to be the dreams alphabetical itch. Too bad Meh maybe if you had some soul it would be ok. No metaphorical waiter forgetting your order just your site forgetting to get good products. Maybe it irks me more than it should.
One day you Meh look back on this post as the check engine light, then it Mehbe too late so don’t let the dream sell you. Stand up for being Meh everyday in every ecclesiastical way. Strive for that mediocre customer satisfaction.
Drive your truck into that wall!
Sorry internet Tourette’s syndrome or maybe it’s turrets syndrome as I wrote gotta keep it fresh.
@nolrak
This post is confusing…
Do you not get the jokes about the Irk video and waiters forgetting his order? Is the pun no fun to run whip though a gun in the sun or has it been done hun? Possibly none? Ask Verdun
@DonBirren@RiotDemon
I think the reflection on the metal is also messing things up in the picture. The left wing looks longer and odd shaped to me compared to the real P-51. But on closer look, I think it’s the wing reflection extending up the side of the plane.
@rickfriday Yeah I hate when they do that, even when my mailbox is full size and depth so all they have to do is turn it so the envelopes fit lengthwise. They like to wrap the regular mail inside the junk mail which doesn’t fit, then fold the whole mess and stuff it in the mailbox.
@rickfriday
I thought these were designed to be bent; can’t you salvage them?
I didn’t get trash – just got Meh email that my puzzle order was canceled – no reason given.
@phendrick@rickfriday I got the same “canceled” email. I replied, asking why & they said there was a general issue-- sounded like a large batch of the items, headed to meh, were lost in shipment. They said a follow-on message would come out later today.
Bad buy. Impossible to get the pieces out without bending them, even while using needle nose pliers (not included.) You need a microscope to see the tabs, and even then, good luck bending them without breaking them, plus the directions make no sense. Very disappointing since the completed models look pretty cool. I was looking forward to putting them on my desk.
The Buy was- 5.00 dollars each but you had to buy 3. I paid 15.00 for 3. Order got canceled and I was given a 5.00 credit. Hmmm. Please refund or credit me the 10.00.
Fuck off meh. I am pissed. And drunk. I want to spend my 10 dollar coupon. However, you keep selling crap. It’s like all your shit is totally meh. fuck you, meh. I love you meh. Fuck you.

@Thumperchick I’m fine with your resolution, even without the coupon. A fast, honest response is the most critical thing to me.
Thanks for the interesting background story!

@Thumperchick my offer still says processing, no cancellation specific to my order… Does that mean it’ll be fulfilled?

I bought these in the past. They are extreme pain in the ass to assemble. Unless you like miniatures and working with mini tools
@username Thanks for the input. I was thinking of getting these for my father and both brothers but I don’t think any of them have the patience…
@username I’ll have to agree. I think the instructions list tweezers and some form of cutter.

I bought one years ago. I just remember bleeding

25% off from amazon price!
But you have to pay for shipping.
Wish I could pick the Space Shuttle in the final image!
How come space shuttle but no space shuttle?
@nolrak It was the model of the Challenger.
Too soon?
“I love me a model” an oranged one once said.
@hchavers yes, he did…
@hchavers @llangley He’s pretty great! But he isn’t “get a hummer in the Oval office” great.
I really didn’t need to see a picture of him here, @hchavers
This is a model item, Meh.
That last photo reminds me of this:
MEH…The person who priced this deal must have OD’d on CBD…
$15 + $5 shipping or $20 + free prime shipping at Amazon. Doesn’t seem like a deal to me
@MrMikenIkes THIS!
@jefmelch @MrMikenIkes Well, if you are an VMP, then shipping is “free”… so a bit better of a deal.
This meddles with my head
@reclaimercube where did Awuwu go?
@sippinndippin RIP
One of the worst deals ever. A bad price for something no one wants.
@Felton10 Have you been talking to @DirtyHarry?
@therealjrn @fastharry even?
@fastharry @nolrak Doh!
@fastharry @nolrak @therealjrn Damn, I should have used @DirtyHarry as my name.
Not even one picture of a pre-assembly model?
@ravenblack While not one of the models, this super short video has images of it:
@ravenblack I’m currently working on building the F22. The pre-assembly model is a flat, perforated metal sheet.
@Ozzie2191 @AGentleman Thanks fellas, my curiosity is satisfied! “A kind of middling number of pieces” is the answer to the question I meant but didn’t ask.
I hope when we see MEH face pop sockets again they’re better priced then this
No model boats?
@CaptAmehrican
/giphy motor boating
@CaptAmehrican @therealjrn I HAVE to assume that this wasn’t the first giphy of “motor boating” that came up…
I bought some in the last round, they’re definitely lower quality than the Metal Earth brand.
The last time they were for sale was on June 27th and it was a 5-pack then, so they must have sold out of some sets, or they found another shedload of them somewhere. I’m guessing the former, because that deal didn’t seem to sell out entirely.

Fuck the P-51 Mustang! From the looks of the photo, the wings are on BACKWARDS!
@DonBirren are they? Let’s compare.
Interesting. They aren’t quite right, but they wouldn’t be right if you flipped them around.
@DonBirren @RiotDemon
I think the reflection on the metal is also messing things up in the picture. The left wing looks longer and odd shaped to me compared to the real P-51. But on closer look, I think it’s the wing reflection extending up the side of the plane.
@DonBirren and there are SEVEN exhaust ports. Must be equipped with the legendary V-14 “Mirlen” engine.
When I go to buy it it says it’s 5$ not 15
@tfedullo you have to pick three. Click add another until you get three in your cart.
@tfedullo You pay $5 per Model. If you buy 3 it adds up to $15. It’s not a true “3 pack”.
Last picture of space shuttle. But no space shuttle.

I received them and they were bent up looks like the mailman folded all the mail and the models are ruined I’m very disappointed
@rickfriday Hey there! We got your email - please check your inbox.
@rickfriday Yeah I hate when they do that, even when my mailbox is full size and depth so all they have to do is turn it so the envelopes fit lengthwise. They like to wrap the regular mail inside the junk mail which doesn’t fit, then fold the whole mess and stuff it in the mailbox.

@vickibme1960 You might want to contact customer support about this since they are the ones taking care of this.
