I ordered one Ghost....and I have two labels created in FedEx.

This could get interesting.

I got a shipment notification from Hasbro Pulse this morning.  The FedEx app has not updated though, and the status still says "LABEL CREATED".

Kind of interesting that Hasbro is starting to ship these even though they are still receiving shipments in the ports (according to Jayson).  I'm guessing it's a logistics/storage thing (as in they don't have enough space to get the whole order in before shipping begins).

It's going to irritate some collectors to know some orders have already been shipped (and maybe even received) while they have to wait another 2-3 weeks to get theirs because it's just now getting off the boat at the port.



(...It's me.  I'm one of those collectors.  People are posting pics and videos on social media of their The Ghost arriving and still not even a "label created" in my FedEx manager :()

I see a couple of UK youtubers have already received theirs. WTH!? I thought we US collectors were the chosen one?

Just kidding. Hope everyone gets theirs before the end of the year.

Gonna have this monster delivered to the Fed Ex store to make sure I don't come home to a soggy mess if it arrives during around rain storm.

I’m actually fine with waiting a little longer, a few more days won’t kill my enthusiasm.  :)

I actually got a shipping notification earlier today from FedEx delivery manager, but it looks like this is for a different label than the Hasbro one. I have ordered a lot of stuff lately so it could be anything at this point.  ???

Yeah quite honestly, I'd rather not deal with it until after Christmas at this point.

I've got to say that I'm really annoyed with either Hasbro and/or FedEx regarding the shipping situation.  The status of my shipment was lingering as LABEL CREATED for well over a week.  And then last night it updated to SET TO BE DELIVERED TOMORROW.  Really helpful in planning.

Mine is out for delivery today, and the FedEx app indicates that there's a signature requirement for delivery.  But given the situation with the tracking (or lack thereof), there seemed to be little to no time to make arrangements for this to be held at a FedEx location.  I'm working from home the majority of the time now, but there's no accounting for what time the driver will arrive, the weather, etc.

I won't be happy about it if they do that with mine.  It still only says label created, but I'm leaving town for a few days.  When I try to set a hold on the FedEx site, it just takes me to the FedEx Delivery manager page where I can update my contact info and address, and I don't have time to be calling them.

Labels are being created, Ghosts are being shipped, Ghosts are being delivered....  and I've got nothing in my FedEx yet.

Can't you just set a vacation hold for the time you'll be away? That should automatically hold any FedEx packages until you end the hold.

OMG.  I almost missed the delivery because I was picking up my daughter from school.  I caught the FedEx driver just as he was about to leave my house. 

I've got to say, the service from the driver was great!  He carried the two that I ordered (1 at a time) from the truck to my garage.  And they were not kidding about the size.  The shipping box is enormous, and it weighs in at just under 50 lbs.

If I wasn't trying to get everything ready at my house for Christmas, I would be putting the Ghost together this evening.  But amazingly, Hasbro got this delivered on what was literally the last day of the Fall of 2024!

Twiddling my thumbs waiting for FedEx to get my package.

I can't believe how many times a day I check their site and my email for status update.
