After your “Helping out Elderly Woman with two free tires” You Sir Deserve a Meteor
so DCS: Meteor by HB Confirmed… Gotcha.
Like… a real one. Not DCS Meteor, but like an actual Meteor.
Umm considering how those are usually delivered, are we sure we want that?
Nothing a good mechanic can’t fix!
would be one mech enough?

That image makes me so happy. At the same time these Sidewinders make me cringe
For all the company’s rivet-counting realism, somehow Heatblur always seems to slap on some random ordinance in their marketing material. GBU-24 on Phantoms anyone?
Also not the early A Tomcat for IRIAF that we were supposed to get–checks notes–two summers ago?
Love HB’s modules, but the way they apply their perfectionism isn’t quite logical.
They already said the F-4 was to be released before porting the new RWR and other things to the early cat systems.
Before I go (back) to HB, am I the only here that ordered the Founders pack (shirt plus vinyl) and have not received the order? I say “back” because I inquired with them a few weeks ago and they assured me my order is on the way. I see a couple of folks have received their founders pack a while back. Just wondering…
I’m in the same boat, Chaz. Still waiting for the Founders pack.
Recieved mine last week. It seems they’re still trickling through the international postal system.
Thanks for the feedback! I’ll continue to wait.

I got my T-Shirt a few weeks ago!
It’s also possible they received the items in partial shipments and not all together. Don’t know if they ship by locale or first-come first-served, but that would also explain why some got theirs long ahead of others.
Personally, I just ordered the module so I know my order isn’t holding up any of your stuff!
Haven’t received my founder’s pack ![]()
They also told me everything was already sent. There is no tracking.
When did you order your phantom? The guys from the Lower Rhine/Ruhr area who pre-ordered on day one got the package on the same day, someone from around Aachen who ordered a day later received his package last week a few others are still waiting, It seems to trickle in slowly…
Phew. Probably in the first week of the pre sale.
According to Heatblur support they’ve shipped everything in March.
I’m afraid the package got lost. Tbh I would have paid extra for being able to have a parcel tracking number.
I placed my order the day after the pre-sale went live.
Like @miRage said, I was told “Your order should be on it’s way to you already…”
Also they use economy shipping and no tracking number is provided which is concerning. If it is lost/stolen, am I SOL?
Unless they put it on a dingy and it stopped at the Azores and Iceland, then placed on a pack mule in Canada to arrive here in Texas… ![]()
Depending on what their shipping partner for overseas is it is entirely possible that some of the mail actually did end up on a ship, especially if they chose the cheapest option like it seems. In that case they don’t really have a choice how it’s routed.
For many years we used DHL standard packages for international shipments and that was always a bit of a gamble. Most times it got shipped by air, then the package arrived after about a week, but sometimes it ended up in a container on a ship, then it could take up to 6 weeks but mostly about a month to arrive, up to three months for shipments to Australia.
For a while in 2020 during COVID they stopped shipping by air completely and DHL express is way too expensive for what we are shipping so we switched to UPS and FedEx.
