The Vintage Collection / Re: Target 2021 TVC Droids Carded Figures
« on: December 5, 2021, 12:18 PM »Well, yeah… it’s not like Hasbro has the ability to make more than about a dozen new sculpts per year.
Or that they have better sculpts to use. Until they make a new 3PO sculpt they should be using the Build a Droid sculpt - so much better.

Jayson at YakFace reported that C-3PO landed in the US. Now I have an email from Target saying he is set for delivery on Dec 13th and the app says to expect it to arrive by Dec 20th. So another couple more weeks and folks should be receiving theirs.

The Black Series 6" Figures / Re: 2021 HasLab Black Series Rancor
« on: December 4, 2021, 12:22 PM »Seems odd they wouldn't email us old fogies - those that have purchased previous HasLab items, those that have spent hundreds/thousands of dollars on HasbroPulse purchases, and those of us on their emailing list.
I don't spend much time on social media so I was surprised when I saw the news on Yakface about having the Hasbro team tell me directly.
I am not surprised by this. The level of marketing and updates by the SW team for the Rancor and the Razor Crest has been nowhere as abundant as for the Skystriker, Unicron or the Marvel offerings. And none of those were as abundant as the Sail Barge.

« on: November 8, 2021, 07:00 PM »Let me know how your sets look. I've been seeing some disappointing reports that the paint is extremely sloppy.
The first set I opened looks ok. The black line over the eyes is a little thin on each of them but nothing too bothersome. I did notice that the torso is a shade darker than the limbs due to the different plastics used for each. But again not too bothersome especially in the right light.
I was annoyed with the choice of long rifle - they went with the POTF2 Commtech Stormtrooper rifle and this guy just cannot hold it. Oh well not the end of the world, I already gave the first two to my son to likely lose.

My sets just arrived from ShopDisney and delivered last mile by USPS 2 days ahead of schedule. Crazy how the shipping went but very pleased to see them in hand. Hopefully everyone else is about to get theirs.

« on: November 5, 2021, 10:00 AM »As of this morning, my tracking number finally works. Shows the package was picked up by UPS 11/4 at 5pm. Tracking info says I should have the package by 11/10. Hoping this all works out in the end!
My tracking numbers have also been updated and show the same Nov 10 due date. Looking forward to see these guys come in, I’ve been looking out my window far too much hoping to see them in my front stoop.

Good to know I am not alone in this, albeit I wish you guys were better off than I. Seeing people on IG getting theirs is keeping me positive that either the UPS tracking site will have details on my number soon or they will just show up. Fingers remain crossed.

« on: October 30, 2021, 09:44 PM »I didn't listen to every minute of the Hasbro Pulse Con, but were there any updates on the Razor Crest? I didn't catch anything new on shipping dates when I was skimming through the reveals and the section at the end dedicated to the Rancor reveal.
There was nothing brought up during the Star Wars panel. Don’t know about Haslab Rancor panel as I had no interest in watching it.

I have had the tracking numbers for my orders for several days now but UPS says they can’t be found. That tells me the shipping labels have been generated but may not be affixed to any packages. Or they have been and are still sitting at Disney’s warehouse. Anyone have a tracking number showing detail on UPS?

This wave has hit the Midwest, I just found the 3 Landos from the case at my local Walmart in Streamwood IL. I was told I just missed the rest of the case, d’oh! But at least I found something new for a change.

Was at my local store here in the Chicago burbs and while they confirmed today was listed as the first day of sale for the DPCI none were in stock at the store or other local stores. And nothing was listed as due in any time soon. Makes me wonder if it will even reach stores or if it will be an unintentional online only exclusive.

Same here, should have my Fetts by Tuesday the 27th. A few days earlier than expected which is nice since they have delayed the next TBS wave for 3 months.

Got my Jaxxon from Pulse over the weekend and he is fantastic. A nice use of old parts (except for the boots) and the head sculpt is fantastic. Pulse sent a msg last week saying Kir Kanos was delayed until mid August and now last night a new msg saying Luke was delayed until September 1.
